WOYWW with a difference

This weeks What's  on your workdesk Wednesday is different. Why? Well, most will know that at the weekend we lost the amazing crafter, enabler (and wifelet to the amazing Doug) Shaz Silverwolf. 

Shaz was a crafting legend and long time fellow crafter and when we met and realised a shared passion for alternative music too it was brilliant. There isnt much i can add that others havent already said. But, in honour i decided to get a certain hand carved stamp out to use. Years ago at a WOYWW crop i had this image on a 'misfortune cookie' wrapper. Doug and shaz took one look at it, smiled and Doug said, you could carve that for a stamp! 


And they were right! 'Cos i went home from the crop and did exactly that! I love the image and have used it several times, so it seemed fitting to get it out again. 

My 'Man bites dog' this week - Dog tricks Priest!! 

Rest in peace Shaz

  4. A brilliant memory of Shaz, thanks for sharing - it’s been great to read about the way she meant different things to people but always was the one amazing woman. God I’ll miss her.

  6. Doug was the enabler to the enabler, so it makes sense for him to come up with that idea! I miss crops (and have missed so many crops too) but they will not be the same without her there.

  14. Oh so that’s where that image came from! Honestly, I think Doug was just as good at enabling. Well done you for the carving, what a nice thing to have as a useable memory.

  16. I started off okay today with the visits, walked dogs and went into the cabin and now I don't know where the time went to! Shaz will never have really left us because her blog will keep her alive for us and I can tell you it wont be the last time I pop over there for some ideas when I get stuck, God Bless her. Have a lovely creative woyww, Angela,x18x

  18. Thank you for sharing that fun and funky stamp with us, that will be forever associated in your mind with our lovely Shaz. What a larger-than-life character she was, with a larger-than-life heart that was always caring for others. She will be sorely missed.

    Have a good week.
