WOYWW 321 # What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday.

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

Hi Workdesk friends.
Here we are for another Wednesday at the Workdesk.
I am here again 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.



And this is what's on my desk today...

 
It's a bit tidier than last week but I am still a bit short on space because of those boxes!
They are Aqua Tints by Spectrum Noir.
It's easier to store them in the boxes but they do take up quite a bit of room!

 
These are the stamps I have been using with the card that is still on the desk waiting to be put away.



 
 
 
Been making a new Bendy card which if you're interested you can see it here.
 
Other than that not much to show you really, it's like desk in waiting.
Been busy visiting the family and shows.
We went to Heckington Country Show at the weekend and saw these, amongst other things....


It's not often we see tortoises these days (in the UK) and these are from a charity who have a captive breeding program, they seemed to be enjoying themselves anyway.

 
 
Hope you have a great week and
happy crafting,

Hullo there Angela, a tortoise how lovely.. when we were kids we lived near some swamps.. and saw turtles out and about often and even kept them as pets, for short while till mum was sick of them :D
They are turtles downunder, different to tortoises, much smaller for starters.
Lots of lovely stash on your desk today too.. storing can always be an issue!

Oooh I love the tortoise! You are right. One doesn't see them so much now. I love everything tortoise and turtle. The bigger the better. I'm fascinated by them. They look so prehistorical and I've been tld can grow to a ripe old age. Thanks for posting those photos.
Btw, the stamps are lovely, especially the one of the playing card.
Have a great week,
Lisca#24

Great pics of the tortoise! We have some desert tortoises and 1 came visiting over a year ago. Do have a roadrunner that hangs around daily. Your desk is quite tidy. That's a pretty good collection of markers! Love the bendy cards, too!
Happy WOYWW!

Lovely tidy desk Angela! I would suggest piling the pens up on top, but like me, you can't really go much higher.... Love the pics of the tortoise too. Hugs, Anne xx

Kristiina said...

Well, I went and checked those aquatints...look lovely, surely something to play with, but perhaps I can cope without for a while :) love your Alice card! Happy woyww!

Aquatints sound fun! Are they inks rather than paints? The very name sounds quite artistic :-)
I love tortoises...they're such funky animals!

Hi Angela, thank you so much for the magazine info. I looked at them on Stampingtons site, but the shipping from the USA was scary! Those tortoise look so sweet, don't they? I see you are a fellow ring binder fan for storage of u/m's. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #7 xx

Diana Taylor said...

Just had a look at your bendy card - wow, it's gorgeous - what a beautiful colour palette and I love the theme of course! The Aqua tints look interesting, I've never heard of them so will be googling later! I love tortoises, ever since I was a child and wanted one like the one on Blue Peter! They are such sweet animals. Hope you have a great week,

Your desk is as interesting as ever. Space is never enough, no matter how big the table is. My hubby says, he never saw me having more space than 1 square foot! LOL!!
Thank you for your earlier visit!

Win Dinn, Artist said...

I can say I've got a bit of stamp envy, to say nothing of how you keep your space so tidy! Well done.

Robyn Oliver said...

HI Angela, thanks for visiting. You do have limited workspace on your desk...lol you could always stack things high - just joking. I peeked at your Alice bendy card..fabulous. Have a great week Cheers RobynO#15

Robyn said...

Love the tortoise, we had one as a child, he was my grandma's before and lived to goodness knows what age...Tom's parents still have theirs and she is about 70 and gorgeous! Hugs Carole Z X

Neet said...

Gosh, you took me back a good few years there - to when I had a tortoise. Yes, you are right, we never see them these days here in the UK.
Hope you are enjoying your aqua tints!
Hugs, & Thanks for your earlier visit to me - Neet 25 xx

Hi Angela
All those new Spectrum Noir goodies look rather interesting :) We probably need to see what you do with them :)
Have a good week.

Morning hun, sorry I am late, thank you for visiting.
We used to look after Tortoise but you are right, they seem to be in decline. :) #30

Deb said...

Don't know how you manage to keep your desk so neat and tidy and make all of your lovely art,you must share your secret!

Aqua tints! Sounds yummy!
We recently went to an island where you can go swimming with green sea turtles in their natural habitat. It was amazing to see these gentle creatures up close!
