Hi Workdesk friends.
Back again for another Wednesday at the Workdesk.
As ever, still busy trying to catch up with all the crafty stuff I needed to do but never too busy to show you:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".
If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.
Anyhow! this is what I've been up to this week.
You will need to click on the photo and open it to see the labelling,
however I have also included a few enlarged photos of those things I thought you might be interested in and here they are......
Orchid stamp in a range of colours which are to be made into cards.
And this is the stamp by:
Next the embossing folder, butterflies.
Stamps I have bought from the Stamp Attic sale.
Various masks, stencils, dies and stamps.
I scheduled this post on Tuesday but then went on to finish the first of the cards using the orchid designs and thought you might like to see the first of these.
Just to prove that I can do pretty, I made this.
I coloured the images using the Chameleon pens,
glazed the flowers and leaves but not sure that it is very clear.
I have not attached any sentiment as I am not yet sure what I will use the card for.
I included ribbon and gems to complete the card.
Thank you for the visit and hope you will pop over to the Stamping Ground and have a look at what everyone else is doing.
Happy Crafty Week,

ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of storage on your desk. Love the drawers! I am loving your orchid stamp! I have them at the office and love them. Your coloring is just so pretty. Thanks for the kind visit yesterday! Winnie #48
ReplyDeleteYou definitely can do pretty, Angela, I can vouch for that! Love the orchid stamp and what you've done with it. Lots of lovely new stash too - have fun playing!
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying being home but still far from fully recovered. Saw the stoma nurse on Mon. and also got my histology result - very aggressive cancer that had invaded the whole of the bowel wall and also one lymph node so I shall now have to have chemo, unfortunately. I'm seeing the oncologist on 5th May and we'll take it from there.
