         Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit Sarah's Craft Shed and our host Sarah will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

These are some examples of the cards my friends made last week at our Card Play Day.

I love the mechanism in this card and they managed it too.......with some help! and control! they get a bit excited Lol!

We finished off with this decoupage card.

If you would like to know more about any of these cards the details can be found here:

I've nothing else to show you today as I needed a rest after the class but will be making more C. Cards

 very soon and hopefully some journal pages.

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.

Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,

Make it on Monday.

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you some cards we made at our Christmas Card Play day:

We all had a great day and made lots of lovely C. Cards.

These are some of the ladies I used to work with and we try to meet up a few times a year. 

None of them are crafters and I have to keep my eye on them Hee! Hee!

I like my pupils to be able to go home with some finished cards but we do spend lots of time chatting too.

We made three different types of card.

The first one above was embossed directly onto the card blank though it is rather difficult to see the details here. 

The patterned layer was die cut and then added and the die used for the tree is from Funky Fossil but not sure what make the bear is but he is so cute.

We finished these with Stickles Glitter glue.

I think the die is by Memory Box.

The second card has a Mechanism which rotates when you open and close the card. I love this type of card, they are so much fun and a great surprise when you open them. The die is by Lawn Faun.

Once you get the mechanism in place you can add the fun bits. Snowflake dies by Tim Holtz.

And finally a decoupage card. 

The fencing is pieces cut from the bottom of the card front and attached to the main part of the card by the two upright pieces.

I layered the figures up with sticky dots but 3D glue could be used too.

Hope you like them.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week and what a week it has been.

I don't have photos of everything though.

Spent some time in Currys (electrical shop) buying a new phone and a good part of the days after that swapping everything from the old phone to the new one. 

My smart watch has been the biggest problem as it still wanted to be attached to the old phone but sorted that now.

The weather hasn't been too brilliant either but that is to be expected at this time of the year and most of the gardening is sorted.

Thursday was spent with some old friends that I used to work with, we were having a Christmas card play day.

Fairly well behaved pupils Hee! Hee! and they managed to complete quite a few C. cards that I had prepared for them.

Poor Alfred what he has to put up with! Daisy has no respect for her much bigger brother. 

Luckily he puts up with it.

I wonder who is the boss here?

I've been looking for Fungi again this week.

This is one of my Bonsai, I wonder if you can see the fungi hidden amongst the greenery.

And a close up shows these little beauties, they fit perfectly with this little tree.

And another one found in the park.

I have also done some crafting for myself too, making more Christmas cards with some new stamps and hope to get into the cabin soon as I have some new moulds too and hope to make something with them soon.

How does this happen, this could be me Lol!

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

Leave me a comment and I'll pop over to see what you've been up to this week too.

WOYWW- 858 - What's On You Workdesk Wednesday.

        Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit Sarah's Craft Shed and our host Sarah will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

This is the last part of the preparation for tomorrow's get together with the girls for our c. card making day.

I promise you'll get to see some of the results next week.

I'm sure you will all be able to relate to the next thing.

And the completed Ledger Journal page I started last week, thought you'd like to see it.

All the information about this can be found here.

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.

Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,

Make it on Monday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you a new Ledger journal page:

Started by covering the edge with low tack tape and then used the Altenew stencil to create the background, first by applying the pale blue and then turned the stencil over and applied the darker colour.

Even more free magazine stamps and I've added some die cut pieces too.

The centre panel was coloured using Tim Holtz Oxide inks with a blending brush and left to dry then stamped on the detail. 

The sentiment was heat embossed and then I layered the panel onto white and black cardstock.

 The background stamping and some of the die cuts were attached before adding the panel so they looked as though they were coming from under the panel to give more depth.

Next attached the panel and added more diecut plants so they were spreading over it.

I have added some colour and Stickles Glitter glue to some of the shells too.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

This was last weekend when the Fireworks started, very pretty. On Saturday we went to a church in Retford to support my cousin who is the Guide District Commissioner for Retford.

There were some lovely Crafty goods produced by local makers.

And Yes! I bought this....

How cute is he!

Here's Daisy in another of her comfy positions.

And Alfie too!

Now what about this, a photograph sent to me by a friend. Wish she sent me the cheesecake Lol!

We need a funny to finish.

This may well be a good example of what you might see next week but you'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

Leave me a comment and I'll pop over to see what you've been up to this week too.
