WOYWW - 797 - 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!

This is in the cabin today.

Nearly ready to remove the resin from the tub. You can just see some of the objects in the bottom,

shells, stones, starfish and jellyfish.

I've added more to the waterfall but not finished yet and Gel Medium to the surface of the water which gives the effect of moving water when it dries.

I've trimmed off the thread that was holding the Manta Ray in place too. 

These are not projects that can be rushed as deep pour resin takes time to set thoroughly but the final stages will be next.

I have never made anything as big as this before with resin let alone without a silicone mould so fingers crossed it looks okay and pops out cleanly when it's finished. 

I like the colour of the water and the way the sand turned out when set so we'll see.

No idea what I'll do with it when completed as it was just a test piece really.

Finally my usual desk!

This is Sarah's fault!

I had collected some of these on Pinterest.

So checked out the website, ordered Wednesday evening and they arrived Friday afternoon, now that

has got to be good.

Thank you Sarah x

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,

So here is my desk for today!

It's not often you see such a tidy desk so make the most of it Lol!

The exploding box is tidy and there is actually room to work! but it's very quiet today as I've been working in the cabin on a resin project.

This is all I can show you right now but I'll make sure you get to see the completed project soon.

This is the hill section and the base, I've arranged some decorative pieces which will be covered in the resin effect water but you'll just have to wait and see how it turns out.

So that's me done for today.

Mixed Media Review 2022

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

I'm here again today to show you some mixed media made last year.

I think this year is going to be lots of resin fun as I'm really getting into this now just waiting for the weather to warm up so I can get back in the cabin.

 

These are ring holders but also make good paper weights too or just look nice. 

I had fun seeing what I could put inside the resin including flowers, glitter, mica, beads...what fun!

 

This next one was one of my favourites from last year.

It's amzing the difference light can make.

This one has glitter, mica, shells, pearls and tiny plastic jellyfish.

I loved it as it was but with the light it just jumps into life. This little wooden base is brilliant as it rotates too.

 

 

This is a brilliant mould with so much detail.

 

Easy to release the resin too.

 

I applied metalic paint to it but not sure it's finished yet but what do you think. I think the tentacles need to be darker.

 

Loving this box and so much fun to make. This is a wooden box and resin embellishments.

Details here:

 

Of course I can't leave you without some stamping.

If you like this next project you can find the details here: 

This was a project from the Creative Craft Academy.

 

I joined in with Tracy Evans for her Thrinchies and although I was a bit late starting I finished it all in the end.
 

 

And here it is.....

 

 

 

 

 

If you would like to see more of Thrinchies you can find them here.

I could go on but don't want to over do it so I'll be back soon with more for you.

For now wishing you a very happy and creative week.

 

Hugs

WOYWW - 707 - 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!

 

Not very exciting today though I have done a bit of crafting working on a new idea for next year's Christmas cards.

 

The stamps came free with a recent magazine.

 

 

The stamp on the left is by Stampotique.

 

 

The set above are by AALL and Create.

 

 

These are facial sponges but I think they may get more use on the craft table.
 

I do have my dear friends close by to keep me company.

 

 

I know some of you were interested to see more of my resin projects but as it's so cold now the resin doesn't work so well but I do have something that I made earlier which you might like.

This is a ring holder.

 

But look what happens when you light it up.

 

This little box is so clever as it changes colour and rotates too.

If you were wondering the hare is needle felted.

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

happy crafting,

WOYWW - 704 - 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!

 

 

Yes I'm back in the cabin. 

I've been working with resin again, it's a good rest from the C. Cards.

 

The little guy sitting on the top of the mould is a baby dragon. The other moulds are in the middle of being casted. 

You can just see some moulds in the background that are coasters and another baby dragon, it is casted in two parts and then joined together when set.

On the left is a jar of small shells that I'm using in the moulds at the front.

 

 

I've been making some ring holders for Christmas presents with shells and jelly fish. This is one of the smaller ones.

 

Here is a collection of some of the items used in the moulding. Shells, Glitter, sand and artificial seaweed.

 

 

I remembered when I was in the cabin that I said I would get out my collection of Clarity stamps to show Sarah (at Sarah's Craft Shed) so here they are. Too many stamps that have been hidden away for far too long!

 

Yes there are two big boxes full.

 

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

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

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.

And my desk today!

I'm working on the next set of Thrinchies for the AALL and Create Challenge.

I have posted the first five finished here: if you would like to see them.

New die and stencils, not used them yet but they are looking good.

This is the die which creates a flip card, will show you soon how that turns out.

Other than that things are about the same at this side.

I have been working on the Steampunk Resin piece and I know lots of you would like to see it so this is where I am so far.

I'm not sure about the Octopus parts but okay with the rest.

It was fun to make I have to say.

This is a bit of guess work using acrylic paint and wax so we'll just have to see how it goes but any comments or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

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.

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 back in the cabin as I've been using a new mould which you can see right at the bottom of the table and it's a lilac colour.

This is a brilliant figure and the mould is so detailed.

Made a little fish with some of the left-over resin too.

Just need to get round to painting it next.

So that's me done for today, nice and quick just how we like it.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

Been working with resin recently so I'm in the cabin today which is why you're seeing a different desk.

This is without doubt my peaceful space.

In case you're wondering the suitcase holds large sheets of cardboard saved from the bin.

I've been making Geode style Coasters among other things.

These are a few of the finished ones so we're back on my usual desk again.

A couple of examples. 

These will need time to cure completely before they can be used to hold hot cups.

I so enjoy playing with the resin.

I have finished the concertina book.

and details can be found here: with lots more photographs.

Lots to see but hope that was quick enough as you have lots of others to visit.

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.
