Get Well Soon (But Don't Overdo Things)

This was made to send best wishes to someone recovering from an operation.

Beauty Bijou Japanese Butterfly Round

I finished my samples using the Japanese Flowers & Butterfly Sampler stamps with a mini make.

Bijou Japanese Butterfly Round on Kraft

I went for a more monochromatic look for this sample using one of the Japanese Flower & Butterfly Sampler stamps from Clarity Crafts - black and white on kraft card.

Embedded Bijou Japanese Butterfly Rounds

These may be smaller stamps, but they can still work on larger cards.  Here I used an embedder to frame two of the Japanese Flowers & Butterfly Sampler stamps from Clarity Crafts.

Stamped Pencil Case

I have some plain fabric pencil cases and thought I would decorate one of them using the Bijou Japanese Butterfly Rounds stamps from Clarity Crafts.

Elegance - For A Lady

The current challenge over on Try It On Tuesday is For a Lady.  I thought this project fitted the theme.

WOYWW 822/42: Getting Started

Welcome to the weekly sharing of desks which is WOYWW (What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday), the brainchild of Julia, who has kindly entrusted it to me to continue after 15 years of togetherness.  Please feel free to link up your desk and visit others' - we are a friendly bunch. I can't believe that it is March already!

My desk shows the flat pack ink pad storage that arrived on Monday evening.

It really didn't take that long to put together and my Archival inks are now in one place.

Furious after events in Washington DC on Friday.

Moving my craft room inside came a step closer this week.  My nephew who is a plasterer, came yesterday to give me a quote for some work that needs doing and is coming back tomorrow to complete the jobs.  Next will come boxing in the boiler, decorating and a new floor and then I can start planning the layout and new storage that I will need.  It is a smaller room than the shed, but I will be able to go floor to ceiling with units along two walls which will make up for that.  A trip to IKEA may be in order, but it probably won't be finished until after I retire.  Don't worry, I will share everything when it is completed.

I have training late after work today so won't get round to everyone until tomorrow at the earliest.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW.
