WOYWW 512

Good morning all.  Time once again to show off my desk and take part in the best blog hop, WOYWW of course!  Click the link if you want to join the fun!

I received my new stamps from Honey Doo .. they are so fast at posting!  And then I ordered some more, And received them yesterday.  The second stash is on the right of my desk.  I've been making more Mother's Day cards.  One was waiting for the Lily die to arrive so I'll finish that this evening. 

Close up of the Lily - it has a touch of glitter pen, but can't really see it in the photo.  I was quite impressed with the blending of the promarkers on this one!

And a First Mother's Day card for someone at work.  But I might make another one this evening and then he has a choice of two ... watch this space lol!

Have a lovely week, and I shall be visiting later today.  Please leave a comment, I love to read them. Heather xx

Oh wow, I'm on a roll.  2 consecutive weeks of WOYWW, where will this end!  I've been a busy bee with Mother's Day cards to sell at work for charity.  I forgot to take pictures of them all - but quite a few were made from Hunkydory kits, so more assembling than creating.  I also had a couple of leaving cards to make this week, a practise one is on my side desk below.  There are also some new Honey Doo stamps.  A nice lily one for a card I have been asked to make for In Memory on Mother's Day.  Next to the stamps are some Spectrum Noir clear Sparkle Pens to add some sparkle to cards.  Not to the dress on the real card, that was just practise using the pens.

Below is the finished card ... I like the Gorjuss stamps, but this is the first card I have made.  I didn't quite have all the colours of Promarkers I needed (especially hair), so will be buying some more soon.  The sparkly bits are from the embossing powder I used.  I didn't have plain black, just black sparkle ... something else for my shopping list! I added glossy accents to the butterflies and dragonfly, and job done.

Please leave a comment so I know you stopped by, I love to read them.  Have a lovely week Heather x

Oh dear, I've been AWOL from WOYWW for a few weeks again.  In my defence, we've had visitors for the last 3 weekends, and my craft room becomes the guest room, so I wheel away my side desk, under my main worktop desk, and no crafting takes place.  On Sunday I made a start on Mother's Day cards, to be sold at work, so that's my crafting for the next week or so.  Side desk and main desk in all their untidy glory!

The purple cards are finished.  There are pieces for some pink and blue cards to assemble.

Plus various butterflies and things for even more cards.

The card stood up is shiny and I stamped handmade on the back and it won't dry!  So may be I'll have to put a sticker over it?

Six more cards on the go.  At the back behind the roll of DS tape is part of two mini shopping sprees.  There were online sales at two of my favourite stores, so I couldn't resist!  Stamps, dies, embellishments, delusions sprays ... lots of things for me to gave fun with.  One was the Honey Doo stamp used on the purple cards.  I love it!  I might buy another stamp with die to go with it!

Have a lovely week, Heather xx
