"Crickey" where does the week go....already Wednesday again so I can take a pic of my desk to share on
Julias blog, If you'd like to know more click on her name - these a bucket load of creative people out there sharing their workspaces.
Today mine is pretty neat but as you can see I've a few project piles on the left - does anyone else do that - start on a card and while searching for elements and ideas end up collecting bit for other cards. On left of my laptop are a few backgrounds I made by distress inking an embossing folder, spritzing the card and running it through the machine...I was impressed and one of them is part of a card pile. And the second pic shows the result of my friend Vikki stating how often we see other card makers desk/rooms that are all so organised with their bits colour co-ordinated etc......so I had hubby accompany me to the St Vinnies store and there was this shelf unit just waiting for me. So I've turned it sideways and spent a little time Saturday sorting my flowers and ribbons into containers - yippee, now their close at hand ready for me to use :-)
Then there's a pic of our friendly magpie...this morning she was looking all bedraggled (was quite funny, looked like a drowned rat) as we've been having some rain, well a lot of rain, it rained all night and the last pic is out my craft room window - it's duller than that really; but the dead grass has come alive overnight and looking quite a bit greener - it's been so hot here but I can't complain because we see on the news how bad the weather is in the USA and UK. Well enough waffling, hope you're having a 'cool' day wherever you are
and thanks for taking a peek

I've made this "So Ramantic" themed card for a dear elderly relative of mine in the UK and later today I need to brave the rain and go and post it. I've used the Shabby Tea Room #200 photo for my inspiration and added two little ribbon roses with an organnza bow, some die cut foliage and pink pearls. Thanks for taking a peek Robyn 
Hi there, so I've been able to finish off another card this afternoon for the PaperCraft Crew Card Sketch #74 and I'm really enjoying using some 'pretty shades' of card away from Christmas traditional colours. Was going to leave the chevrons off until I remember this border die I have and I think the curve matches with the feminie card. Thanks for taking a peek Robyn
Hello and I'm wondering if there are other crazy people out there that have 3 or 4 cards on the go and then end up creating a whole new one - just like I did with this card for CAS(E) this Sketch CTS#58. I'm just a few days back at my desk after a months holiday and busy checking out different challenges I'd like to tackle and on the way I see other bloggers and more techniques, soI stop have a go or piece together some coloured card, dies cuts, ribbon etc and so now I have little groups congregating on my desk....waiting!!This sketch was great for the new stamp I got over the break from Chocolate Baroque...Cheers and thanks for taking a peek, Robyn
Another quick card from me this afternoon - a long one to fit a business envelope, using the Dynamic Duos #85 - Summer Starfruit and Garden Green :-( no stamping on this card as I just wanted to use this sentiment strip from a paper pack I have and the colour suited well. I've done some rearranging of my workspace and put all my flowers into jars on my desk also jars of ribbons so I can see them and use them. I think we're off for a late afternoon swim at the beach now to cool off. Thanks for taking a peek Robyn
