WOYWW68

Morning Bloggers. Another whats on your workdesk Wednesday. Morning dew on the cars, it's getting a bit chilly in the mornings. I have been a little busy girl - like that word made a start on my Christmas cards and did a little bit of shopping. If your wondering what I'm wittering about, go to the lovely Julia's blog and you can see all the other WOYWW I think it's gone over 159 well that's a lot of desks to snoop over. Blogger was being bad last week, on a lot of posts kept getting error code when you type in a few comments and then blogger didn't want to co-operate it's a little daunting, so I'm sorry that I didn't get around to everyone.

Well this is whats on my workdesk. Two Christmas cards - Sarah look I said I would start. The cardstock is from StampinUp as well as the stamps. I got these from Monica Gale she had them on her blog so I had to get them. I have some new stamps, two from Penny Black which I got from a Cardmaking company for joining them and the other with the lady is from Inkadinkadoo which I got from Lavenderlane crafts in Stoneleigh. I do have a few other stamps on my desk from stamps away I think which I got from Ally Pally a few years ago, so they have come out as they have Christmas Messages. Tinkerbell pencil case I just adore Tinkerbell, which holds my copic spica pens because you have to store them horizontal apparantely.
I did make a card for Peters friend who is retiring on Friday and of course he said to me at the last minute make a card for me. Here it is a bit simple but hey he's only a man he he.
Bazzil bling cardstock navy and light blue sorry don't know colours have had them ages. Words cut out from from Go-Kreate -Lingfield alphabet. Nestie fancy die cut, embellishment from a pack from Personnel Impressions I won ages ago with lots of other men papers - came in handy eh. Chelsea topper from stash have had for ages. Happy retirement wording from woodware think its Francoise Reeds words. Well I don't want to bore you all to death. So have a lovely day and Big hugs to all. JO xxxx
