WOYWW - 617 - 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 busy doing some moulding so no room at the moment for much else but you can see the MDF project which is coming together tucked to the back and that's about the only thing that's different today.

So that's me done, nice and quick.

 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 - Use it or Lose It.

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

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

I made this Masterboard by stamping with Distress Oxide ink which I sprayed with water before applying it to the card which gives this great additional effect with the ink. 

I just love the effect of Oxide inks on black card.

If you're wondering how I made and used the small yellow piece then you need to pop back next week when all will be revealed but for now......

this card was stamped using the Visible Image butterfly (Live Life Now).

Next take a card blank and stamp along the card with first and second generation ink to give depth to the design. I like to go onto the back too so I leave the whole card open when I do this.

The next stage is to stamp the chosen sentiment and then cut out a square from the Masterboard which I attached to the card trimming away the corner sections.

I also cut two circles, one from the masterboard and one which I had stamped onto white card and edged these and overlapped 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, busy mostly with stuff for my mum.

However we did have a walk in the park to see what they had been up to recently and things are moving on. 

They are working on the new path at the moment so that must be a good sign.

It's dried up now so not so muddy. 

Can't think who those three are in front Lol!

For some reason the ducks have all collected round this spot, I think they are at their courting stage at the moment.

And this little chap was in the bottom of my watering can. 

I have no idea how he got in there but I've put him down the bottom of the garden where it gets quite damp as I need the can to dose the pond ready for the new season. 

Just hope he's not a Homing Lizard or he might be back again Lol!

He's rather cute though and it's so lovely to see them around.

There was another thing that made me smile this week and that was a delivery from Russia, really enjoyed watching the tracking on this as it moved from one country to the next.

It's a new dragon mould.

Now speaking about deliveries I will finish with some funnies that a friend sent me just had to show it to you, it's so true and very funny too.

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 -616- 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!

A few new goodies this week are filling up my desk and the exploding boxes on the left have filled up again too.

Some new paints by Finnabair, watercolour card by Tim Holtz and a new Versa Fine Ink pad. Those paints are lush.

New blending brushes, just love their holder too.

New stamps by AALL and Create and a new pot of my favourite Grunge Paste.

This is something you will see again soon as I'm back on the MDF, this one is from Hobbilicious.

Now this is not on my desk but I teased you with it last week so here it is completed.

And 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

Masterboard Monday - Use it or Lose it.

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

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

Another mop up card, I simply cannot waste ink.

Used some Visible image stamps and stencils to add the detail.

They have such great detail and that grungy look that I so love.

This stamp is called 'Scripted Streets'.

And this is where I ended up. You may notice that the left hand side has not been stamped as I have another plan for that part.

The next stage was to take some white card blanks and stamp these in black including some detail at the back to.

I stamped these using first and second generation ink on the stamp.

This stamp is called Creative Chaos.

I've used that left hand piece to stamp the flowers and heat embossed them.

Fussy cut the flowers and we're ready to go.

I've applied some of the same colour to the center of the card which will be shadow for the flower.

I completed this with a stamped border (Flower inkognito set) and a sentiment and then overlapped the flower sections. The center petals are from the Random 'Art Of Kindness' set. Then finished the design with a few flicks of black paint, gems and some Stickles Glitter Glue.

Stamping around the back just makes the design for me.

Once you have a Masterboard there's only one way to go and this was the next step.

Rip some sections of the Masterboard and edge these with a matching colour. 

Next I stamped some Butterflies (Wings of Chance) then fussy cut these. Before you know it the card is complete.

Finished this with black gems and a sentiment.

One of my other favourite ways to complete the project is a little bit of stamping inside the card which just makes them that bit more special.

Of course there is still some Masterboard left-over for another day.

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.

What a week!!!!!

Mum was supposed to go home on Monday and wasn't feeling well so they kept her in the Nursing home for another day. Luckily they contacted us before we left.

We're still walking most days in the recreation ground as the park is a mess but they are getting on with the work so we had a walk round the other day to see how everything is progressing.

This is what happens after the morning walk.

Maisie certainly looks comfy.

Mud, Mud and more mud!

Not sure you can see this very well but it's a boat sculpture as years ago the lake had boats on it.

 

This is the plan for improving the water system for the fish.

Restoration Project info.

More statues.

And of course a few funnies to finish with.

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

WOYWW - 615 - 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!

The box on the left is some new Modelling Material for moulds. 

Not used it yet but it looks good.

I am working on the washi tape that I prepped last week.

I've been using some of these AALL and Create dies.

And I've cut some of the Washi tape. 

The paper below it is part of an earlier Masterboard.

I have collected together some other bits and pieces which looked useful.

These are on top of a large black tag and the red net is what my oranges came in. I always like to reuse stuff if possible and this looks rather good for this project.

Now time has not been on my side this week but I have made this quick card using some of the other Masterboard I showed you last week.

Quite like it and hope you do too.

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
