WOYWW 169

Well how did it get to the end of August without me blinking? That's how it feels anyway.

Another Wednesday show and tell for Julia's band of merry crafters. Join the fun here.

This week has been the end of a busy fortnight for me. Mr K came back for Little Miss A's birthday and stayed for a whole 10 days. Ofcourse that threw my crafting schedule into utter disarray. I did however manage to get a little crafty thrill on her birthday when i opened this from Twiglet. Isn't it the most gorgeous thing you have ever seen, just perfect for my perfect little angel!

So on my workdesk today were these pages. Only a few of the myriad of photos that were taken on the day....

Sorry about the rubbish quality of the photos. will try to take them again tomorrow in the daylight.

Rachel House had arranged cake and a lovely banner to help us celebrate her 1st birthday. I truly am blessed having such lovely friends and family around me.

another week of snooping and drooling at other crafters' work desks lies ahead if you join in the party at Julia's blog.

I've managed another couple of layouts this week, but still got lots to do.

The rubons didnt show up against the cream background so i inked the area where i wanted to have them before placing them. Looking at the second page I think I might go back and put more butterflies.

Has any scrapper actually got to go and hunt for a photo to scrap? Or are you all like me and have so many still to do that you feel that you will never catch up with yourself?

Planning her 1st birthday party for 18th. Anyone got any ideas for amusing 10 kids?

Well another blog hop starts over at Julia's.

Today I thought i would show you some of my missing in action craft stash. Actually, the stash isn't missing. It's in Turkey ...... I'm missing the stash!

My DH keeps bringing me little bits every time he visits, which isn't frequently enough for me never mind for bringing my stash back to me.

Quick post this morning as Little Miss A is demanding some of my attention.

Looking forward to popping in to see everyone. A little crafting sunshine on a yucky summer day makes me smile.

My workdesk has moved to 2 bags and a folder of photos.

Sorry the quality of photo is a little bit poor - used my phone camera for speed. Under the photos is a box of card candy. My project from the weekend. various tools and bits and bobs that i think i might need later today.

I'm off to play this morning....sorry I mean seriously create......at my friends shop. Actually, I try to do this most Wednesday mornings when Little Miss A's carer comes in for a few hours. It is the time that i get to do something for myself. Yip, you've guessed it...I'm doing my 2 favourite things today...crafting and blogging for WOYWW.

If you want to join in the what's on your workdesk wednesday fun pop over to Julia's blog. It's easy to join in the fun.

Another Wednesday, another WOYWW....and as i completely missed last week because Toots was poorly I am typing frantically to complete this post so that I can play along this week. This is my desk as of this morning.

Not really done much crafting, well not since the craft fest that was GJWHF in Perth at the beginning of the month. I have been working hard to complete some of the part finished layouts that i have sitting in my album

A wee photo of some finished layouts. I will hopefully be crafting this weekend if all goes to plan. The last couple of weeks have not gone to plan, hence the lack of me participating.

This was part of a workshop in my local craft shop. Not my usual style, but I love the funky colours.

The other double layout in the same pack included a card as one of the main images, again not my usual style but when you see the card you'll understand.

Hope you are having a good old nose around blogland. If you are wondering what we are banging on about go have a look at Julia's blog and join in the fun.

10 months and going strong

Well my baby girl turned 10 months today.

I love this photo of us that Simon Harbisher took of us at Rachel House last weekend.

I can hardly believe that she is still with us, and for the moment going strong. It has been a long road and very emotional, but i am starting to look forward to what the road ahead might bring and trying to think of experiences that i can give my gorgeous girl.

smart phones are not so smart

particularly when the touch screen isn't working.

I am having a time and a half with my phone. Not only has my handset died a blackscreen death, my DH has went off to Turkey with my o2 sim card.

Thankfully I have an old Orange Pay as you go, but the o2 sim card and my experia handset have all my current numbers and text messages in them!

So, I have been telling all my friends to get in touch via email. Not the handiest mode of contact but will have to do until i can get all their numbers so i can transfer into my other phonebook! Wouldnt normally call myself a luddite, but oh for a good old fashioned phone book just now!
