WOYWW- 740 - 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.

So here is my desk for today!

My desk looks tidy again this week but that's only because I've just finished my project for the next Masterboard Monday. 

Even the exploding boxes don't look too bad.

I'm trying to get ahead of myself as we are going away for a while at the end of the month and it will be here before we know it. 

Before that happens I have a class to plan for the Craft Club and the day after that is the Steampunk Festival so that weekend is going to be crazy busy.

I do have some balloon dogs waiting to be painted ready for another card I'm making soon.

In the left hand corner I have some new blending sponges which come in these very useful containers.

There really aren't any other things that are different from last week.

This was on Kate Cranes facebook page and looks interesting.

And here is the last card I made.

It's not on my desk today but it was at the beginning of the week and thought you might like gto see it.

Details as usual on my Monday post here:

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 

and 
happy crafting,

Crafty Cardmakers 246 'No Patterned Paper'

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.

  Monika is hosting today and our challenge is 'No Patterned Paper'.

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:

This Masterboard was made on an A3 sheet of Kraft card. I added screwed up tissue paper, texture with a stencil and layers of paint which I knocked back with some Gesso added with a dry brush.

To construct the card I ripped away a small section of the Masterboard which reveals the Kraft card along the edge leaving about a third of the white card blank showing. Now that's a real popper!

I had a little play around with some Seth Apter die cut pieces, a large gold jigsaw piece and more of the Masterboard.

Once again I've brought in the 'Press and Seal'. I'm beginning to wonder how I managed without it, it certainly makes jobs like this easier.

Once the pieces are well attached to the 'Press and Seal' you can turn it over and add the glue, sticky dots or whatever you wish to use.

Turn everything over and place in position, attach and then carefully ease away the 'Press and Seal'.

Everything looks exactly the same as the original idea, no movement and no problem in trying to remember the plan or photographing it before hand which is what I used to do to ensure the design was in position which never quite ended up as planned.

A few additional gems, Tim Holtz die sentiment and some clear glaze and the card's complete.

 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.
