 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday.  Not done much crafting as been a bit shattered but did manage to make some C cards! Not made my usual amount by this time of year, only 9 so far, but its some so thats good. 

On the back of my desk is my red sketch book. On wednesday evenings i am doing a free zoom video painting course by Emilys Notebook. So far i have sketched dogs, scenery and an apple. This evenings is sketching shoes! My sketches arent great but I will post an update as its a really good course and one i have only just discovered. 

Was also lucky enough to have another sketching session at the weekend with our Bristol urban sketchers group, was a great couple of hours just sat sketching. 

Forgot to post my man bites dog cards this week, will try to remember next week.

So, what's on your workdesk?

 Hello and guess What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday??!!!  Crafting!!!!!!!   I know, hope you were sat down for that!  It's because I have a day off today and pre planned to get up and craft, even if only for an hr or so.

So, I tend to have a habit that I try to make 15-20 Christmas cards in January each year, I find it takes the pressure off me in November and December.  Not made any yet, BUT, I am gathering the papers etc.  I tend to cut up and upcycle some bits of cards we receive as well as stamped images and die cuts and I keep them all in one box so I can store them in one place (by store, I mean sweep my arm across my desk when fed up and throw them in there out of sight!!).  If I can make half a dozen by the end of the weekend I will be chuffed.  If not, no worries.

Also on my desk, at the back is a red notebook.  On there are a couple sketches of dogs, not great, but fun to do.  I discovered Emilysnotebook.co.uk where she offers free live online sketching workshops 19:00 Wednesdays!  So last Wednesday was my first one, and yep, hooked so I plan on doing more!

My "man bites dog" cards this week are "Cruel Singer Tricks Fans" - ooooh, I wonder who that is!

So,  What's on Your Workdesk this Wednesday?

 Happy first What's on your workdesk Wednesday of 2023! Only a short update today as rather behind (drafted last night).

Hope you all had a good Christmas and new year, be it working, time off, time out or catching up with people? 

On my desk-well, micro greens! They are growing on the window ledge but needed moving whilst i cleaned the window ledge last night! These are fenugreek and onion and get sprinkled on my salads, soups, stews etc. 

Also, thought i would share my gratitude tin. Been doing this for about 7 years now. An old coffee tin covered in gaffa tape (SO love that they do patterned gaffa tape), with a bulldog clip with papers and a pen. Then when we have something we are grateful for we make a note and pop it in the tin. Could be something simple like a walk or catching up with friends or a gig, either way, usually a few times a week we have something to add. Then on new years day we pour them out and randomly pick one and read it out. Simple, free, takes seconds to fill in but brings some great memories flooding back. 

So, happy 2023 and hope you all had a good one. 

Happy crafting
