Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. Hope everyone is ok and after the terrible event in Australia my heart goes out to my Jewish friends. On my desk this week, of course panic making more cards!! I think I have it sorted, overseas posted, friends and family posted then remembered those I will be seeing over Christmas, oops!!

forgot my 'Man Bites Dog'cards this week but think there are enough headlines to wonder at recently! On my desk is the new glue I bought, sadly I haven't been able to find the high tac glue (in the gold tube laid down) so bought this general one....fingers crossed it works ok.

These are a couple of the cards I have made, only a couple more to make! Hope everyone has a good Christmas or whatever festival/time out you have and happy crafting. kyla

Morning all, quick apology but didn't make all the return visits last week, been playing catch up and health is a bit rubbish at the mo combined with the v. wet weather which triggers my Rheumatoid arthritis, but on a positive got some compost topped on the allotment and got to see Rob Brydon play live this week (bought tickets in March and was pleased we went as was v. funny). Decided to make some Christmas cards, not great but using up stash so thats a good thing.

'man bites dog' cards this week...Cop Sues Last Wife!! Oh, well get them! hope your all well and more organised for Christmas than I am! kyla

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. I cant believe I am actually making Christmas cards!! most years I make about 20 by the end of January. this year i can only find 3 so am guessing work took over and i didnt get round to it. So, just remembered that family overseas means i need to get them posted asap....so i need to make some!!

decided to get my sizzix die cutter out and also emboss some die cut baubles, I plan on stamping a background and greeting on the cards. not used some of these inks for a while so hoping they are ok and not too dried out. Main thing is, i am making cards!! forgot my man bites dog cards again but still plenty of headlines to wonder at on the telly and paper!! first time I have thought about xmas this year, better crack on i suppose! hope your all better prepped than i am this year kyla

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. on my desk this week is my 365 journal getting the pages ready for December (and yet again procrastinating about making Christmas cards!!).

trying to use up my ink sprays as I have had them for SO long!! forgot my Man Bites Dog cards but think we are probably seeing enough odd headlines in real life anyway!! happy crafting kyla

happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. i missed last week as was busy but this week i am crafting!! well, sewing!!

my handbag needed mending, the magnetic clasp had worn through the fabric. so, thought I would have a go at mending it, no idea what I am doing but got to be worth a try as doesn't cost anything but time.

I thought to use some old faded jeans I cut up as the colour complements the green and stitched it round and added some z stitching to help edge it. no idea if it will work but only took an hr of my time and was a nice distraction! kyla

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. I decided I needed to get inky so I caught up with finishing my inktober tags and also November's 365 journal pages. i have inky hands so a good excuse to prep some beetroot later I reckon!!

as to the man bites dog cards, well, bet there is a story behind that!! These are my inktober tags all finished. I will find another ring hanger and screw it into the underneath of the shelf to add to all the previous years tags.

now thats done i suppose i best start some more C......cards! kyla

Slightly different 'desk' this week......my kitchen! I am dehydrating again. The other week I dehydrated several pounds of foraged apples for use over the winter months and now i am making dehydrated courgette crisps which I have sprayed with rapeseed oil and cider vinegar. once they have dried i will sprinkle a little salt over and hopefully that should do us as crisps for lunch for the next week.

after using the oven to dry and realising it was something I enjoyed, a few years ago I spent out on a dehydrator and am pleased I did as I use it all year round. No 'man bites dog' cards this week as they are upstairs!!

and I am still catching up with Inktober too!! I will get there in the end, nothing says I have to do it before the end of the month! kyla

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. This was my desk last night and to be honest it still much looks the same today!

still playing catch up with Inktober, almost there, this is day 19 just finished and I hope to catch up today! As to my Man Bites Dog cards 'crazy lover falls for nurse!' Well, why not? lol.

I mentioned last week that the past few years I have completed inktober on tags which I put on a ring and hand from the shelf at the top of my desk. this is what it looks like, I must admit I quite like to flick through them for inspiration and sometimes just to help my mojo. hope your all having a good week kyla

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. This week I am playing catchup with Inktober. I have been taking part for many years and for the past 10 yrs or so I have used tags to sketch on and they are all hanging from rings at the top of my desk. as usual I am a bit behind so putting some time in to catch up and do very quick sketches rather than fussing and worrying.

as to my 'man bites dog ' cards this week, not a great headline but they are randomly drawn cards!! happy crafting kyla

Morning, I have stuff on my desk!after a few days away and limited phone signal I wasn't able to post last week. But i sorting some goodies out on my desk. Now, i didn't make these cards but I bought them on one of the art trails I have been doing. The lady was making them and selling them to raise money for a street homeless local charity, i thought they were lovely so bought a few.

I have been making stuff but mainly in the kitchen. this week it's dehydrated apples as its been a bumper harvest.

there have been so many apples on my walks I thought this would be a good way to store them. I have a few apples wrapped in a box but these should last a lot longer. So, what's on your workdesk? kyla
