WOYWW 59

I am so late this week, was gonna do when I got home from work but my darling sons had used up the batteries in the camera but not put them on to recharge, grrrrr   . . .  and its only the beginning of the summer hols, gawd help me.

Now I wont be able to take part this coming week as my mum is having a hip op and Im going down to look after dad while she is in hospital, they have no internet access (aarrgghhhh), hope to be back by WOYWW 61, but it will depend on how things turn out, have had to take emergency leave from work, has to come out of my holidays, cheers work, forget about all those extra hours Ive given you.  I will be just outside Winchester, so if anyone can point me in the right direction for some great crafting shops, I will be eternally grateful, Spyder I know you are down that way.

Anyway onto this week, due to popular demand I have shown the stamps I got last week from 3d Jean, they are stamped in my stamp file, which is categorized and next to each stamp I write what box its in, that is a bit a**l, I know, but it works, and I can browse through when I am looking for inspiration.  In the background a lovely ATC from the lovely Rusty Cage and a card I have made for my boss's new daughter.

Also I have visited the sales this week and got a lovely top from Monsoon, also bought the pen pot and couldnt resist the sign, and an update on the jewellery box, paper not stuck in yet, but Im liking the look.


















So I am off tomorrow so will be visiting as many as I can, will miss you all next week but am going to take laptop and learn some more about my Silhouette and Adobe Photoshop.

Are those the Altered Original Inks I spy on your desk... what are they like? I really want some. Your Jewellery box looks lovely (mine is still unaltered) Did yours have a picture painted on the glass? I can't remove the picture from mine, wondered if you had any ideas?

What a lovely work area you have.
Looks like a great card up there.
Not in your neck of the woods, but am sure you will find at least one craft shop. Will watch for your new goodies when you get back.
Take care.

Hope all goes well with your mum's hip op, Pidd. Glad the steam fairy reached you. I like your stamp book. I have one too BUT no reference to where it is filed - it's all in my head!Possibly not a good idea.

Oh my goodness what a fabulous desk, room, space you have to craft in. Soooo much going on, where do I look first!!I love the cabinet, the wall hanging, even the gorgeous silver bowl your pens are in! Thanks for the reminder, my camera's batteries went down last night, better put them on charge!! And oh wow!!!

Don't forget to show me if you make anything,I'd love to put it in the store! Hope you got this weeks unicorn. Have a fab WoYww on Friday, sorry I'm soo late, I'm a very slow typer and reader!

Sometimes it's good to be anal. I think it's occasionally my middle name. I really like how you categorize your stamps, and would do the same if I were a stamper. When you learn Photoshop, you can teach me (GRIN). Have a fun and safe time away.

Sorry I'm so late getting here. Best laid plans and all. Happy WOYWW on Friday.

Lovely crafty space and lots of yummy goodies. Hope your Mum's hip op goes as well as my DHs. He is doing soooo well and tell her whilst it may be uncomfortable he never found it painful.
Love your pen cauldron!
