WOYWW 266 # What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.


A big welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
 
Hi Workdesk friends.
Angela here to show you "what's on my work desk this Wednesday"(WOYWW) and if you visit Julia you will have access to desks throughout the world, so hope you will hop over to the Stamping Ground and all will be revealed.
 
 
And here is my desk offering for this week.
 

I am working on another of our Masterboard swaps, this one was made by my friend Gloria and I am finishing it using the Tim Holtz Cabinet Card dies.
I will be posting the whole project on Masterboard Monday next week so if you are interested please pop over.
 
You can just about see part of it towards the back of the desk, showing a Paper Artsy stamp image.
And these are the back sections which I have embossed.
 
 
 
Well that's a nice quick post and hope you will pop over to Julia and take a look at the other deskers offerings.
If there is anything on the desk you want to know about, just ask.
 
Happy Crafting,
 
Angela x

Wow, that embossing is so pretty. I'd love to learn it one day as it's so effective but I'm flat out right now.
I love seeing all the great things you can do when I visit desks. Have a great week.

RosA said...

I must remember to come visit you more often, to see what you do with those masterboards. I think I need to have a go at them.
This morning (before work) I actually did some of that embossing with acetate. Naturally I had some TH packaging hanging around! I must say I'm rather pleased with the results!
Thanks for dropping by earlier,

I've seen Julia's master boards, they're a great idea! So a swap seems a great way of expanding what you have and also receiving one that you may never have thought of creating yourself. Win win!
I know those Frank Sutcliffe photos of Whitby you mentioned on my blog.....we lived in North Yorkshire for a few years so went to Whitby often. I think my lads need to grow larger beards if they're really to resemble those seafaring gents!

Diana Taylor said...

I love the embossing folder - that's a really cool design. I've never heard of a master board swap, in fact I don't know what a master board is - but it sounds interesting, and something to investigate further!!
Thanks so much for stopping by my desk and I hope you have a great week,

As soon as my album is out of the way, masterboards is something I want to explore, as it looks very interesting. I love what you have done with the little pink cards, and am very intrigued by your previous post, too. Thanks for your visit, and your nice comment - glad you like my latest page. To start with I was quite unhappy with it but I'm now feeling a lot better about it! Not sure when I shall get back to it as I'm exhausted and behind with everything now as Mum had to be admitted to hospital with a TIA yesterday (home now) and the whole experience was extremely stressful with all the noise in A&E, the waiting about, getting terribly hungry, and putting up with Mum's appalling behaviour all day! I am now absolutely shattered.

Happy belated WOYWW,

It looks like you have been very busy. What is the tool that is aqua in color? Is it some sort of distress tool? I just love looking at all the crafty goodness in your storage cubes and around your work area. Thank you for stopping by my blog earlier.

At first I thought you were knitting baby hats there on your desk but now I see what they really are. They look great and like they will be fun to play with. Thanks for the visit last week! I'm late getting back to everyone.

I love the cabinet die, which looks great the way you have embossed it and distressed it. I'm intrigued as to what the finished project will look like. Blessings!

Carole Z said...

HI! I love the look of the cabinet die, the embossing looks fab...I'm also intrigued to see the completed project and I'm not sure what 'master board' is, so will have to research! Thank you for stopping by my WOYWW desk yesterday, Carole Z #49

My first glance at the picture was not very successful... I thought thats a nice lilac pair of socks! Time for bed methinks!
I do love the lilac cards - lovely texture.
