WOYWW 207

Happy WOYWW to visitors from near and far -- this is an every Wednesday event, wherein we post a picture of our workdesk, link up to Stamping Ground, and commence to visit others' spaces in a virtual manner. 

I took my desk picture today (Tuesday) as I'm home sick from work. I've made some thank you notes for kidlet to use to say thanks for various birthday gifts. I realize it doesn't sound like those two things go together, but after spending most of the day in bed, I decided to stamp the last few cards!

And here's a close-up. I love Ranger's archival ink, but I don't think the label of the pad is a very accurate indicator of the color! (See below . . .)

I made this over the weekend for a family friend celebrating her 90th. I opted not to emphasize the number and just made something sweet and simple. 

Decided I couldn't live without these cute stamps. I don't often go "cute" but thought they'd be sweet on cards and layouts. 

And I've adopted more archival ink pads!

Edited to add: I'm sorry if some of you tried to leave comments yesterday and never saw them show up. I tried to leave a comment myself yesterday -- tried twice -- and it never turned up in my queue to approve. It does appear to be working normally today. 

Hello, friends! This is how my table looked this morning before I left for work. I've been catching up on some Project Life pages after getting a bunch of prints made up. I printed out two free PL items -- one from Cathy Zielske and one from Ali Edwards -- and made the colors match. I'm caught up now -- just have to do last week's page. It should come together fast, since I have a bazillion pictures from Gabi's two birthday parties. :)  I'm linking up to blog hop extraordinaire: WOYWW -- come check it out, if you like virtually visiting all over the world. 

I prepped these frames for Gabi and her friends to decorate with glitter glue, sequins, and stickers. I glued the letters on, did a layer of gesso, then paint. One little girl hates pink, so did blue for her. 

This is one of the Project Life pages I finished yesterday. 

Hope you are having a good week, with time to play and plenty of your favorite snack and beverage at hand.

WOYWW 205 | Quiet desk after a weekend of scrapbooking

Good morning, friends! I've got my bowls of embellishments out on the right (brads, buttons, tiny wood veneer, etc.), some punched butterflies (I got a new large butterfly punch and I love it), and all the flowers dumped out of their jar. I'm going to do something with the stencil for a page background, but since yesterday was daughter's birthday, I didn't do anything on it. (If you, too, have an insatiable need to show your workdesk and see what lots of other folks are doing, link up with Julia's WOYWW.) 

Used up some hoarded October Afternoon papers here. Fussy cutting makes me nuts, but always looks pretty in the end. :)

This layout (as with the one above) was submitted for a Big Picture Classes challenge. In this case, we were to attach a divided page protector as a second page with washi tape. The page protector was from a different manufacturer and the sizes were markedly different, so after I took this picture, I substituted one that worked better!


This one tells a favorite story.

Daughter and I made cookies for her to take to school to share with her classmates.

Thanks for visiting!
