Hullo there everyone.. well, another "desky" share as it is Wednesday
again!! and that means the great worldwide Blog-hop around desks of the
world for WOYWW or What is On Your workdesk Wednesday.. pop over to our chief's desk for the link up, at Julia's Stamping Ground! Before proceeding want to apologise to Sandysewin as tried to comment on her WOYWW but her blog would not let me, came up with Error 404 and wanted to scan my computer?! {Edit: Sandy has looked into it an says apparently it is a problem which occurs from time to time.}
To my desk:
To my desk:
Here you see my goodies laid out - received from a bloggy win over on Judy's blog- called Judy's fabricrations. She is my latest wodnerful Encourager too, so do take a peek over at her blog and say hi!! My favourite is the decoration of the heart with all the beading detail (!!) and the card there on the right has some lovely beading detail too. The pretty paper and Christmas toppers will be very useful too, and the wee tissue holder! Thanks so very much Judy - you are incredibly kind!! |
Here is Emily's card made for her birthday last Friday with "Emily sleeps here" below which I started on WOYWW a few weeks back.
Made this card with a scanned image from my Flower Fairy book by Cicely Mary Barker (actually her background is interesting reading). The card has a 3D image of the fairy (as card was for Emily did the "E" fairy), on a Fleur de Lis Labels 8 Spellbinder die, used the Memory box die on my desk last week, Memory Box Piestra Tile die and used it on border, with ribbon and Blushing Flower branch also MB die. Spellbinder petite ovals for greeting, La la land corner and used a frosted rose red cardboard for details, also glittered the fairy but dont think it shows. Cuttlebug Olivia die used for "3" and the label 4 smallest die. |
This is a blue Fairy Wren (sketched and coloured in Prismacolors) and just so happened her party was a fairy party. I did not know when planned to do it.. how amazing is the LORD? or so I thought anyway - and then few days after starting it saw these wrens when out walking and took this photo back here. :D (they have gone now, I look every time walk there but dont see them.. I am glad had the camera that day ..God is good too, as they are rather hard to photograph). |
And the pickie from Oz this week:
I generally try and comment on everyone who is kind enough to come to my place and says hi but this week things may get too busy till maybe early next week, so apologies if bit slow.
I am scheduling this post so linking maybe slow too.
Thanks so much every one for popping over for a peek and a chat, may God bless your day wherever you may be!

ReplyDeleteThanks Shaz for visiting my page. One of the nice things about desk hopping around the world (which I hadn't realised) is all the beautiful flowers people have in their gardens in different climate zones and hemispheres. Thank you for showing me that stunning orchid. Made my day!

You sure received some gorgeous goodies from Judy. Your cards are great. I love the red one with all the detail on it. Those orchids are beautiful. So many blooms on it. Wish I could smell them.
ReplyDeleteHi Shaz, your desk looks so colourful with all the goodies win spread over it - Judy is indeed a generous and lovely lady. And your neighbours orchid is stunning - marvelous that he can grow them outside; they are strictly a greenhouse plant over here. Have a great week. Elizabeth x #51
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit already. DIY straws are plastic straws with separate 90 Degree bends that you can build your own crazy drinks straw with...but I have steampunk in mind so will add it to a canvas on Sunday when I get some desk time in...
ReplyDeleteLove your card and your neighbours orchid looks stunning. Mine are busy growing 2 more spikes on my kitchen windowsill...my green house
Awhat lovely goodies you have there. It's always fun to play with new stash. Hugs from the bears at no. 47
ReplyDeleteLovin' that orchid - so enjoy your Oz pictures.
ReplyDeleteFabulous card and calligraphy picture - lucky lady. You are so good at this kind of work, it's amazing.
Lastly (working bottom to top) congrats on Judy's prize - am envious, just a teeny, as she is one heck of a fabric lady. Love her work - her dolls are amazing.
Love to you
Neet xx
