woyww - 885 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

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

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".


If you don't know what this is all about then please visit
 Sarah's Craft Shed and our host Sarah will explain.

So here is my desk for today!


I'm working on a new pop-up card for the Craft Club.


I'll show it to you properly when I've mastered the technique but looks like it should work out okay for the club.


I've almost finished the Baby Journal and this is part of what I've done recently and more details are available here if you need them.

ooo0ooo

And that's me done for today.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and visit the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.
Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,

WOYWW - 880 - What's on your Workdesk Wednesday.

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

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".


If you don't know what this is all about then please visit
 Sarah's Craft Shed and our host Sarah will explain.

So here is my desk for today!


The exploding boxes are filling up again. 
This was Monday and it didn't look like much would happen this week.
We've been away for a few days and I was just not in the mood for crafting.


However, I have this die set that I have been wanting to try out, it's an envelope card die.



So I started it on Tuesday, it's not finished yet but looking okay so far. 
It folds flat to go in an envelope and stands up really well too.
Dies are good, you don't need to think so much to produce something.
The papers are a mixture by Dreamees.

The stencil at the back is waiting to be used on my next journal page. Who knows I might be in the mood for that next week.

So that's me done for today.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and visit the other desks.

WOYWW - 875 - What's On Your workdesk Wednesday.

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

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".


If you don't know what this is all about then please visit
 Sarah's Craft Shed and our host Sarah will explain.

So here is my desk for today!


I had to make a man's card this week and just couldn't decide what to do so he's getting a birthday cake.


I have had this stamp for a while so it's good to see it out and being used.


I stamped it a few times because I couldn't decide how I was going to finish this.


So I have fussy cut pieces from the stamped images and collaged them together attaching them over the one above.


Next is how to finish the card off?



This would have been easier had I decided to do this at the beginning but no problem I masked the cake and then stamped the sentiments, allowed it to dry and then edged it with green ink, mounted it over black card and then onto a white card blank.
I think it will do!



Finishing it with Stickles Glitter Glue.

So that's me done for today.

But due to a special request this is just for Mary Anne.......



I'm not really sure whether Mr Hare has been on full view here before but he's certainly been around so here is a better view for you Mary Anne and his friends the mice and Shooman.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and visit the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.
Have a great woyww

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 Masterboard:

This was a slightly different style from the other cloud Masterboards as I used only shades of blue which gives it quite a different look to some of the earlier ones. 

And this is the card I made with it:


This would probably be a good card for a child with the sweet space rocket which was part of a free stamp collection from a magazine but I've had it for so long that I haven't still got the magazine.
The sentiment, moon and stars were also part of the stamp set. 
The embossed stars are by Spellbinders for Simon Hurley. 
I have coloured the space rocket using Faber-Castell Polychromos, they are brilliant rich colours and finished this with Stickles Glitter glue.


I stamped and coloured two pieces for the space ship allowing the bottom to stand out slightly when attached to the background.

This was quite a quick card this week as it's been too hot here to spend lots of time at the desk but you know what I think it worked.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by 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 Masterboard:


If you think this looks familiar you would be right as I decided to use some more of the left-over pieces.


I so love this effect and it's fun to make too and lots of ways to finish it off.


This time I'm using paper aeroplanes.
The birds and sentiments are magazine freebies.


 I've used another set of older stamps by 'Visible Image' for the main images.
Hope you like them.

I've used a smaller card blank for this card but the process is basically the same.

I have realised that I have many other stamps that would work well with the clouds so you may well see them again soon.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Not very exciting as I've just been tidying up after my last card project.
Stencils, dies and stamps.


Details here:
Which ended up looking like the card above .......


I have been making a baby Fly Agaric to go with the other two.


Many of my fungi are stored here and my little snail who is trying to escape bottom right.

So that's me done for today.

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 Masterboard:


Just another way to use these.

I used a spellbinders die to cut the wavy shapes.


Added to the die cut with some stamped bubbles, Stickles Glitter glue, tiny clear pebbles and the die cut jelly fish, not sure what make they are. 
I did have brown patterned paper so used that too for the sand effect. 

Just a coordinating sentiment, also by Spellbinders and it's done.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

WOYWW - 733 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

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

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"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.

I have to warn you that I will be late getting round today as we are off to the Lincolnshire Show but I'll get round to you all later.

So here is my desk for today!


It hasn't seen much action since last week when I was completing the Masterboard.

The smaller box now has all the Kate Crane stamps and stencils that I've been using other than that there's not much change except that the Masterboard is finished.


If you would like to see how that came about there are details on Monday's post here:
I did tidy the exploding box but not sure you can tell! There were a few things there that I had forgotten about.

And here is one of the cards made using part of the Masterboard which has been altered with Picasa 3.


I did go to the craft show at the Doncaster Dome last Sunday and of course came home with a few new things to play with.

These are some of the more intertesting items:


Stamps, Stencils and dies.


This is a sweet little dog stamp by Kate Crane, it's a freebie from Stampers Grove and I love it.

.

An interesting collection from Inkylicious. I have a plan for these!


I thought this was a clever stamp and hopefully I'll get round to playing with some of these soon.

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

Masterboard Monday - Use it or Lose it.

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

I'm back to using up those left-over Gelli print pieces so watch out here comes the fun!


I know you have seen this before but it has to be used up and there's still plenty left so I've made another card.


I've been playing around again with some Kate Crane stamps and this left-over Gell print.

  
I've used one of Kate's stamps to decorate the background straight onto the card blank using black ink and second generation print.

I didn't want the background to over power the design so I stamped off some of the ink before applying it to the card blank.


 I layered this up adding metalic grean cord and black card. 
The bunting is by Kate too. I finished the design with Stickles Glitter glue and.......


 a small heart from also by Kate and a birthday sentiment from my stash completes the inside of the card.

I love this card and hope you like it too.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Masterboard Monday Review of 2021.

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


I am here today to show you a few more cards made with Masterboards from last year:



Very Retro. 
Details can be found here.







This was just me playing with some ink which was allowed to run over the card then once dry I die cut and rearranged the pieces then reattaching them.You need to place another piece of card underneath and glue it in place.


Details can be found here.



Even the left-over pieces make great cards.


I could go on with this but now it's time for something new next week.
Although I've been doing the review I haven't been lazy and there are new things to come.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
