WOYWW #296 and the first for February.
Here's my desk first thing this morning - yesterday I started at making Mothers' Day cards for the Aussie troops - my friend Karen put me on to this FB site and as I have heaps of time I'm going to join in and make a few. Lucky for me I found two sheets of 12x12 with mothers day sentiments so I've cut them up into lots of usable pieces and have nearly completed 12....so you can see the makings of these cards on my desk today. On the left next to the laptop I've had a go at making little envelopes out of hearts and will die cut hearts to put in there just got to work out how to display them on a card. And I have a house mouse card on the go - rightside/back.
If you'd like to know more about this craze of displaying our messy creative work spaces, please pop over to Julias blog....she host this wonderful, sharing, inspiring event....
Thanks for visiting, have a great week Robyn
Robyn,
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW what a beautiful desk you have today, I love the idea that you are making cards for the troops I did this last year. Can you send me your link for it. I did sent some through Bridget last year and thought I should share it around. You do have some beautiful cards created. Thanks for sharing.
Hugs Eliza & Yoda 21

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!

Lovely cards and it's great that you're making for the troops. I haven't made charity cards for a while now. I may make some later.

What stunning cards you have made there. House mouse is just the cutest range of stamps. They always make me smile. #56
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely cards and what an even lovelier thought. Bless you! (HOpe that compliment does not sound as bad as I am now reading it and that you know what I meant).
ReplyDeleteYou have made me think about the 10 cards from one sheet of paper I once did - could do those for the troops. Good thining Robyn.
Hugs, Neet 29 xx
The cards are all beautiful!

ReplyDeleteWow, you sound so busy! Your desk looked so productive with all those cards :-) I was going to ask why mothers day cards and then I saw Lisca's comment and it makes sense. What a lovely idea.

What a lovely thing to do, Robyn, making those cards for the troops....and they are lovely, really pretty and sure to be appreciated by whoever gets them. Great idea!! (And a stash buster too...it's a win win situation!)
ReplyDeleteHugs, LLJ 26 xx
There will be some delighted Mums around, when these arrive. They are really lovely. I love the house mouse card - they are some of my favourite characters. Have a great week, Chris # 11
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely batch of cards you've made! I'm sure they will be appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHave a good week, RosA # 28
What lovely cards, and what a fab idea! Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteMorti
Goodness, Robyn - that's an amazing amount achieved in a few days. The cards are so lovely - well done.
ReplyDeleteWetroom now all finished so John has full use of the bungalow again - couldn't come near the works 'cos of the dust levels. The room works really well, and I can now shower him without resorting to smothering myself in plastic sheets or swimwear - not a pretty sight! There is so much more room to help him then when he was inside the shower cubicle and I was outside...
Thanks for visiting and for your comments. Yes, I am taking some time to relax. I am enjoying getting to sit in the lounge with crochet hook or knitting needles in hand and watching some real rubbish TV. We haven't had a TV licence for over 30years - so it is a great big novelty at the moment.
Take care. God bless.
