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 was up real late last night working on my art journal which I left on my desk.
Loved how it turned out!
So... my art journal is on my desk along with a new Tim Holtz die (the doctor sign thingy one), which was on sale for $9.97 at JoAnn's and of course I just had to get it!
Then I have just a few pieces of cardstick that I am sending to a lovely crafty friend. She has this lovely heart die and she has allowed me to request her to cut some for me cause I just can't buy the die right now.
Here ya go.....
my craft desk for today:
So sorry for the glare. It was just past duck when I took it.
A very romantic glow on your desk. Cool journal, love that top page.
ReplyDeleteSwapping die cuts is a good idea, helps save some $$ for sure and a chance to play with some from a die you've been wanting.
Thanks for visiting this week.

Thank you Krisha, for coming by. See you next week at woyww.
DeleteLove the space and the new dies and paper - what lovely colours..your hexagonal tool caddy is fab too Shaz in Oz.x # thanks for popping over :D
ReplyDeleteYes that tool caddy is fab, and liking your journal.
ReplyDeleteI agree, your desk looks all moody and Film Noir! Your journal looks great...I'm not a paper crafter but even as a teenager, I never kept a diary or journal...I'd tell my secrets to the wind, not put them down on paper :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog, don't think we've met before? Anyway, I enjoyed reading your past few posts and completely agree with the list of things you're going to cut down on, like swaps etc, and concentrate on doing some old fashioned stuff. With you it's reading, with me...well, I need to start drawing again. I was always sketching and noodling about but there never seems to be time to do that much. Well, that's going to change!!
Hugs, LLJ 27 xx
Thank you Miss Jan for stopping by and your lovely comment. I decided if I was going to read, I might as well start with people's blogs along with books. Then also spend more time with my crafts . Gotta do what we enjoy, right?
Deletehugs!
'Just past duck', I like that, made me smile.
ReplyDeleteLove how you ar doing your journal, with the tags and well done on your bargain buy, can't beat a good bargain.
Thanks for visiting and for your kind comments, always appreciated.

DeleteHi Kimmer, thanks for visiting me, not seen you on here before so welcome to WOYWW, I do like your journal, I am so rubbish at that sort of thing so I do admire folks who can keep any kind of journal, but especially an Arty one.
ReplyDeleteBless you
Chris #36
The journal, I don't journal near as much as I just fill it with art. I am kinda lazy about writing too much stuff down each day.
Deletethanks for stopping by!
Hi Kimmer
ReplyDeleteWould love to see what you do with that die, I have had it for a couple of years and haven't used it yet!!! Love your tabs on your journal too, did you cut them? Thanks for stopping by my blog. Happy WOYWW.
Dawn x #39
Oh gosh Dawn... I hope to use the die for a wedding mini album I will be doing in a few weeks. I'll be sure to share... then you will have to drag it out and use it too. *smiles
DeleteI have to agree with Krisha, you have a very romantic desk with all the lace and little teacups and things! The art journal is quite a culture shock in comparison to that, lol!! Yeah Christmas, sorry, I work at it on and off all year, then by Thanksgiving I'm putting my feet up and enjoying the season!

I keep telling myself to do Christmas before July,, but I can't seem to do it, maybe this year, since seeing your inspiration.
DeleteNot sure what time it was LOL. Love the lace curtains and the lamps. That's not to say i do not admire and like your artwork - I do.
ReplyDeleteHugs & thanks for visiting me

The art journal. That was a bit daunting for me too.. then I watched a bunch of videos on YouTube and decided I gotta just do it. Now after doing a few pages, I like it! I hope you get going on yours, I would love to see what you do.
DeleteLOVE your work space and your journal!

ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit and your nice comment. Do give Zentangle a go - it's brilliant fun and highly addictive, and there's so much you can do with it! I am having so much fun with the teabags too, and mixing the different art disciplines,. No end to the possibilities!
Happy belated WOYWW,

Hi Daniella, I am not so sure about the art journal stuff... but I am finding out a lot from YouTube and figure I can't really mess it up too much. Just gotta remember things don't have to be perfect. LOL
