Welcome to my latest contribution to the weekly sharing of desks, led by Julia over on The Stamping Ground. Next Wednesday sees the 11th anniversary of WOYWW, whether or not I will have finished some UFOs by then ready to share is anyone's guess.
I was busy batch making some cards for a colleague at work so I can't show you the finished items. My large Clarity nesting die folder was on the table with my trusty Grand Calibre in the background. Tom and Peter still keep me company and my shed diary is keeping me organised too. Not sure when I'll finish visiting this week, as I have a virtual staff meeting later today and I am working from home today too. I am in school again tomorrow, so hoping the weather is good enough to spend some time outdoors. Happy WOYWW everyone and a shout out to Y7 and Y8.
Welcome to a very short addition to What's On your Workdesk Wednesday this week (join in with the fun HERE).
My desk photo was taken yesterday morning as I have nothing that I can show you today. Between working from home and getting some samples finished to catch the post later, it will be a long and hectic day. I was just starting some tags yesterday (surprise, surprise) and had sorted out my chosen stamps and some inky copy paper ready to start. Tom and Peter are still keeping me company and you can see my shed organiser which was a Christmas present from a crafty friend.
These are the finished tags which I will be sharing in more detail tomorrow. The blog post is already written as I will be in school. I may therefore not get round to visiting until the weekend. A shout out to Y7 and Y8 pupils as usual and happy WOYWW to all!
Only three weeks to go to the 11th anniversary of What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. That is an impressive length of time for a weekly link up to have been taking place and it is thanks to Julia at The Stamping Ground (ably supported by Lunch Lady Jan), that it has kept going for so long. So here's my contribution for this week.
As you can probably tell, my desk has been shamelessly staged this week. All the tags that I have made in the last fortnight are on display (the last four will be blogged on Saturday and Sunday). Tom and Peter are still keeping me company and I have a new book on the go (Peace comes to the Chalet School by Katherine Bruce). It seems an appropriate book to be reading at present, as we approach the 75th anniversary of VE Day on May 8th. I have also looked out my Clarity postcards, ready for the colouring sessions with Barbara Gray on FB live starting next week (10am every weekday morning). I am working from home today and like to get an early start so I can take a short break at 10am to catch the live doodle session from the SHAC shack.
I thought I'd better show a close up of the seahorse card that was on my desk last week as so many asked about it. The stamp is from Claritystamp, designed by Cherry Green and it is done on watercolour card. I can't say more, as I made it as part of an online workshop with Maria Moorhouse. I have just sent off for her second, distance stamp class, so await a package of materials through the post.
I'll be along to visit later today. A shout out to the Y8 pupils and the lovely Y7 pupils who made a video, in response to the one made by the staff. I'll finish with the tag that I shared as part of that video.
