WOYWW #250

Come join in the fun.... I am participating in "WOYWW"  = What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. 
Visit Julia and her blog>>> here to find out more.

I got to do a little craftyness shopping at Hobby Lobby and JoAnn yesterday and of course the stuff sits on my desk until I have time to put it away.

Here is the mess of a desk that is mine right now.....


I am such a paper hoarder, so I got me some lovely new papers.

First is a Kellerkurtz & Company  (yeah , that is K & Co) beautiful stack. It is ultimately the most vintage style papers collection I have seen. My son's wedding is going to have a vintage theme, so I think I am going to do the guestbook and the wedding album with a lot of this paper.

Then I got "The Primrose" collection by DCWV. I had wanted this stack for so long and got lucky this time and grabbed it.



I got a "Crop A Dile" which I had wanted for over a year. And  from Joann I got a small Fiskars heart punch that I need to used for the wedding invites that I am so feverishly working on.



Woohoo, what a haul. I even brought the hubby along so I could use my coupon on my punch and crop-a-dile.

Thanks for stopping by!

hugs,

WOYWW

I don't know about anyone else, but it seems I lost more than just an hour with this silly spring ahead  (steel an hour from me) time change. I swear it feels as though I lost 3 days! Ha!

WOYWW = What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

I am participating in WOYWW (as often as I can). Sounds like fun and it gets me creating and blogging.
And as you can see... I am late for my very first post, cause it is 5 in the morning on Friday. But I did take the picture on Wednesday, does that count??

I am working on my youngest son's wedding invitations. I am testing out trying to get a bit of a vintage look to them, so far, so good. Also amongst the mess are the altered matchboxes for a swap.


and my Journal 52 and my Documented Life journal. 






Hope you all had a wonderful Wednesday. 
If you want to follow along with Julia over at the Stamping Ground

Announcing the new swap over at 

Come on over and join in the fun!


I love swapping... but seem to never have the time. But this swap (of a few lately) tugged my crafty strings and I just had to join in.
So, the swap is over at An Altered Place and it is called Leading Ladies Tag swap. 

It is a year long swap. My first tag is Lana Turner. 
I loved the dress that Lana was wearing. It had a red floral patern on it and this was a challenge for me because I normally would rather do pastes. 


Hope you like!
Of course, I made one for the swap and one for me... woohoo!

Does anyone else do this?

I am sitting in my crafty mess upstairs and trying hard to figure out where to put everything and I sit there staring all over the room.So, does anyone else do this?
 I can't believe the mess it is. I am still taking things outta boxes that were shoved into the closet when we moved here. I knew right away I would not have enough storage space. It makes me wonder where the heck I had it all before in the tiny area I had in my old house.
I will honestly sit there for an hour, looking, contemplating, picturing where things can go and even asking myself questions like where would something fit  or where is the better and convenient spot for things.
Needless to say, I am getting something done, but it seems I go forward, then revert back a little each day. LOL


Wish me luck that maybe one day my craft room will be beautiful!


hugs,
Kimmer
