WOYWW 198

Hello out there!!! Time to share what is on my desk this gloomy, miserable, cold Staffordshire morning. Oh yes, it's time to join in the fun at the Stamping Ground where a lovely group of peeps share craft areas in various states of disarray. Want to be a part of it? Just hop over HERE to find out more from the wonderful Julia.


Here's the view of my 'temporary' desk - oh, who am I kidding, I've taken over the whole room so there are piles of stuff on the go everywhere. It's ok though because the boys can still get to the PS/Wii etc. (which is their main concern!) I have as usual got many projects on the go both physically and on my head. The one nearing completion is a set of two cards using digital images and inspiration from a scrapbook layout. I've had an order for 20 cards and have to keep trying to restrain myself to make them look more 'commercial' than grungy/shabby. It's a challenge!! The joy of having saved a ton of bits that didn't quite seem to fit with other projects is that they generally turn out to be absolutely perfect for other things. In the top right hand corner I am also playing with mini book shapes - part of a set of projects in my head. Loads to achieve today, so it's time to stop rattling on and get visiting lots of other desks. Hope you have a great Wednesday, whatever state you are in,
hugs Jenny xxx

Isn't it funny that even when we have a dedicated desk we spread out all over the place. Am sure the boys are happy with the bit of too they have just as long as you don't progress to their bedroom with your crafting.
Nie things on your desk and I look forward to seeing what that coloured image is going to be. Even tried turning my computer upside down to see. Mmmmm...
Hugs, Neet xx2

Hi Jenny, Your desk looks like a 'hive of activity', I have 3 tables but they all have stuff on them, I end up crafting in an area that just fits my craft mat ha ha.
Looking forward to seeing your creations.
Lots of love from Patricia xx

Your desk looks waaaaay more productive than mine. Mine is blank, minus the cup of coffee...rather like my brain which needs a most definite kick in the pants for inspiration. Thanks for helping to turn the cogs!
hugs,

Hi Jenny, I don't think we will ever have enough desk space, the more we have the more we want. Happy creating hope your visions work out.

Happy WOYWW

Wow, that looks very well organized, Jenny!

I confess: I couldn't don anything more "commercial" - it would always look as if it wasn't completed or was made quite disorderly... so I stick to "grunge" (always know your weak points!)

Have a wonderful WW!

Hi Jenny, well done you for your 20 card order, that should keep you busy for a while. I love the bird cage mask on your desk, I see from the sneak peek we get from the card next to it you have already used it, texture paste maybe? mmm cant wait to see it properly. Thank you so much for your visit, and your very kind comments on my cog card. Take care Hugs Mo x

Ria Gall said...

there are two pieces on your desk one on top of the other they look so pretty from what I can see they look very interesting so I am hoping the full things may be on show sometime?
Great looking desk this week I have that mask in that size and 12x12 so lovely to use
Wishing you a very Happy WOYWW

Terry said...

Oh I know this desk will reveal a lovely project for us! Happy Wednesday! Hugs!

Karin said...

There is never enough space to craft in my house. The only trouble is when it needs to be cleared away so that we can eat.
I hope you manage to get your cards finished without getting too grungy, for me that would be hugely difficult!
Happy Wednesday #142

Happy Wednesday, Jenny.
That mask looks a bit scrummy as do those images. I look forward to the results of your creative endeavours today.

The box with all the bit in looks very interesting! I have one where all my left over bits and bobs go and then hopefully I'll use them on another project!

Hi Jenny, whatever you create will be just wonderful! I do love that birdcage mask, have it still un-inked (sigh). As ever, you look very organised, hope you have had a good day. Hugs, Anne x #34

Keren Howell said...

Had to smile when I read the bit about the boys and the games console - it's the same in my house, but the "boy" in question these days is my husband. Very glad that nothing stops you being creative, too! xxx Keren

Darnell J Knauss said...

You are a bundle of energy, Jenny! Good luck with all the projects you have on the go and in your head! Twenty cards is a big order, but you'll whip them out and they'll be fab!!

Have a wonderful week! Darnell #42

Maisie Moonshine said...

Hi Jenny - yup Staffordshire IS cold and miserable today I spent the day in Lichfield with a friend and got totally frozen! I'm very much liking the look of that card you're doing there. I love anything vintage and birdy. Thanks for your visit and I reckon you should mount a sortie in to your boys rooms and nab those Pokemon folders! Hugs MMx #50

Patricia said...

Hi Jenny,
Interesting to see what wonders you will manage to create next.
At least you have "desk" I work in the kitchen so everything always has to be tidied away.............Oh! the luxury of being able to walk away and leave something till another day.
Happy Crafting

Hi we are shivering down here in Wales too - isn't it a drag ! Glad you have such fun things on the go on your desk - but the thought of HAVING to make 20 cards makes me shiver even more - SO much pressure ! Hope you have fun making them ! What's the metal flower thing on your desk - looks intriguing ! Take care Ali #22

sandee said...

Brenda Brown said...

Looks like lots of fabulous things coming to fruition.
Have a great day.
hugs {brenda} x0x

Helen said...

Had to laugh at your post, taking over the house - it's a way of life for a crafter surely!! Luckily living alone I have no-one to complain... great desk, I am sure your order will be perfect. Helen, 8

Anne said...

Hi you sound just like me lot's going on, more in my head and spread out everywhere. Interesting desk and projects. Anne x #162

RosC said...

Jenny, that order for 20 cards is pretty good. It's hard not to go into assembly line mode if they are to be more-or-less the same. The two on your desk are lovely as much as I can see. The permanently temporary work space doesn't seem to curtail the creativity much. :-)

Cheers,
Ros. #47

It is interesting how we spread out everywhere... a habit of cleaning before I craft..like I can't cook in a dirty kitchen...I can't craft in a messy desk....HOWEVER during that session it looks like a tornado hit the place including the floors.
