WOYWW: 543- 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.

So here is my desk for today!

Some of you already know what's happening here.

This is my usual spot where we're having the roofing replaced but I didn't want to miss out on our Wednesday visits so I'm here anyway.

However, I've found other places to craft.

Last week I went to my friend's house and we made Christmas cards.

I managed to get all the bits ready before my desk had to move.

 And on Saturday I went to the Craft Club so I've still managed to do plenty of crafting, desk or not!

So that's me done for today.

I have no idea at this stage when things will be back to normal but I'm hoping to still be around though I have no idea where the crafting will take place next so watch this space!

 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,

Crafty Cardmakers 244 - Halloween.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Hi! back again to tell you that it's time for another challenge over
at Crafty Cardmakers.

Kim is hosting today and our challenge is Halloween.

As usual you can enter anything you fancy, it doesn't have to be cards, as long as it meets the challenge. 

Hope you will join in.
And here is my project for the challenge:

The background to this is a Masterboard, stencils and stamps were used to build up the design on A3 card using black ink.

To this I added some black tissue paper which I screwed up and attached with glue for a little more detail.

Cut the chosen piece to size and attach to the card.

From here I added the details.
Tim Holtz Tangled Twigs laced with the new Frightful Things die (bats), Pumpkin Jack-O-Lantern and Handwritten Halloween sentiment die.
To complete this design I added Stickles Glitter glue and enamel gems.

I hope you will pop over to see what the rest of the DT have been up to and maybe join in the challenge.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with too.

 Happy crafty card making.

Friday Fun Day.

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.

I think you can tell that Maisie is not amused! She is in the Conservatory surrounded by coats and blankets.

The reason for this is:

You can't see it but there is not a roof up there, this was Saturday but no worry because it's back now though different.

As you can see it's not quite finished yet.

Still not impressed!

She's lying on Des's work clothes now...maybe she's keeping them warm for him! No idea where Stan was, think he's keeping out of the way though he could be up to no good too.

The cabin is coming along too though this is only the first coat and only on the front so far but looking good!

Oh and these two popped up this week in the garden. Apparently there has been a large amount of fungi around because of the damp weather according to a news reporter. I must say these are big ones! Not sure what they are though and will have to look them up.

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for

"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

WOYWW: 542 - 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.

So here is my desk for today!

I'm working on another card using some left-over Masterboard today.

 I'm thinking about a concertina card but we'll see.

The card that is peeking out is not actually hidden it's just in the pile and some of you will have seen it before so here it is:

I made this ages ago for the Stamping Ground Challenge so it's fine for you to see it. The stamps are by Altenew.

Now I have to admit that this is a scheduled post as many of you will be aware that we are having alterations done so who knows where I'll be but be sure I will visit you all.

This is where I normally can be found and although you can't see it there isn't a roof on there at the moment but it's being replaced as I write this. If you look closely you might be able to see my desk in the conservatory.

I will be so pleased when everything is back to normal.

So that's me done for today, I can't say where I will be crafting next week but I'll be here!

 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,

Masterboard Monday.

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

I am here today to show you a card made with this left-over Masterboard:

There's always a piece left over!

Today I'm using a 5" x 7" card blank and I've shaped a piece of the Masterboard and a piece of white card.

To make this!

The small dragonflies are by 'non sequitur' stamps and the larger one at the bottom by 'dimension fourth'.

The sentiments are by 'Which Craft' stamps.

I've added some Stickles Glitter Glue to the Dragonflies too.

 And a little something for the inside.

It's not often I make CAS cards but I quite like this one.

I would love to hear your comments and many thanks for stopping by.

Happy crafting,

Angela x

I would liketo enter this card in the following challenges:

Country View Crafts Challenge: October 19 - Bokeh.

A Vintage Journey Challenge: October Challenge Inky Wings.

Fab and Funky Challenges: Challenge#453 Feature a Creature.

Frday Fun Day.

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.

As if the cabin isn't enough we're having the roof altered on the conservatory too. 

So our friends from James Oliver's arrived to start pulling my happy home to pieces.

The roof came off first.

 Then in came the new roof.

 Lots of lovely insulation in there so we'll be cosy and warm in the winter and nice and cool in the summer.

Felt on next.

I'll be back soon with this providing the weather is kind to us.

That was Saturday and Sunday.....

I went to the Doncaster Dome to the Craft Show which they call 'Stamp Magic'.

One of my favourite shows though it didn't seem so busy this time.

I stopped by and watched the demos at Inkylicious which was nice.

These were at Snazzy's

Now there's lots more been happening since then and hubby is laying the floor in the cabin as we speak but I have to keep out of the way so photographs will follow soon and I'm off to Newark show on Sunday so more escaping for me.

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

WOYWW: 541 - 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.

So here is my desk for today!

I'm working on a card for this Bokeh design which I did on black card with a stencil and white ink and there are some coloured bits on the top which were left over from an earlier project but more info will follow when I've completed the card.

You may well notice that the exploding basket is filling up again.

Now there are some changes to come which might mean the desk is out of action but don't worry I'll still be around but might be crafting somewhere else, we'll see soon.

I knew you would want to see what I bought at the weekend when I went to Stamp magic (Doncaster Dome) so here you have it.

Oh and this too which I'm looking forward to having a play with.

I have posted a card this week, a Baby Pop Up Box Card which you can see here if you're interested.

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

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge # 243 - Add Some Sparkle.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Hi! back again to tell you that it's time for another challenge over
at Crafty Cardmakers.

 Marlene is hosting today and our challenge is 'Add Some Sparkle'.

As usual you can enter anything you fancy, it doesn't have to be cards, as long as it meets the challenge. 

Hope you will join in.
And here is my project for the challenge:

For this challenge I decided to make a Pop-Up box card with lots of sparkly bits.

And you've probably guessed that this is a baby card. 

As we don't know the sex of the baby I've used yellow and green for the colour scheme.

Lots of pretty die cut images, papers, ribbons and sentiments.

Very sweet and nice and flat for going in the envelope.

I've included a nice sentiment on the back and room for personal words too.

So there we have it all done.

I hope you will pop over to see what the rest of the DT have been up to and maybe join in the challenge.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with too.

 Happy crafty card making.
