 Morning, hope those in the UK are enjoying the sun? It's been lovely for the past week, including the bank holiday! Lots going on at the allotment and garden meaning my desk has been left empty! Well, apart from an empty page in my 365 journal in readiness to decorate ready for june (june already???! Well from tomorrow). I have gesso'd it so it's all prepped ready to decorate. 

I did manage a trip down to the beach the other day and sat and sketched a couple of scenes in my travel sketchbook.

My 'man bites dog' cards this week are Nude Tourist Sues Hubby! Well, i will be watching the local news with interest! 

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday

 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. On my desk today are some lovely ATCs from fellow deskers. Bottom left is my official ATC from the oh so talented Tracy which also came with a card saying 'on the days when life seems toooo much remember you are not alone. Hold this card and feel the love that is surrounding you'. How fabulous is that? Next to the card is an ATC from the amazing Jan and behind that is an ATC from the talented Helen. 

On the rest of the desk i assembled a series of items i keep close by from WOYWW friends, badges, tag books, aliens, lino prints, a framed die-cut butterfly and a whole book of ATCs. Love it, so inspiring.

 So, what's on your workdesk this Wednesday?

WOYWW 14th Anniversary

 Happy hump day and What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday.  Started 14 years ago by Julia and Jan and boy, its been a blast.  Over the years I have made new crafting friends across the globe and been lucky to meet up at crops and catch ups over the years with several other deskers (and sadly lost a few over the years, but they will always be remembered).  They have taught me new crafting skills from paper craft to convincing me to make a quilt and handbag (looking at LLJ!!) as well as top tips, storage tips and of course "enabling" of new crafting stash (looking at Helen and Mary Anne in particular).  

So, on my desk last night was this!

I know, bit odd!  Cleaning up glass jars ready for jam and chutney making season, and must admit crafters companion is easily the best way I have found to get those really difficult and pesky glue patches off jars.

Also using poundland gel nail remover - basically a quid and pure acetone which is perfect for removing stubborn marks so perfect for cleaning my plant labels ready for their use.  I do have wooden and bamboo ones but must admit I still use these thick plastic ones as I get quite a few years use out of them whereas some "creature" has nibbled the top of some of the wooden ones I use on the allotment!

At the back of my desk is my sketch book with last weeks bicycle I sketched at the Emily's Notebook zoom drawing lesson she runs each week.

Hidden behind the acetone are my ATCs!  Only made 4 so really sorry wont be able to do a return swap as already got 3 ear-marked and 1 for my offical "swap".

My "Man Bites Dog" cards this week are the headline 'Model Tells on Dead Star' - well, that could be a LOT of people!  I will watch the 'news' with interest ;-)

So, What's on your workdesk this Wednesday?

 Morning, just going to start with an apology for not managing all the return visits last week.  I have been a bit pressed for time as two assignments are due for the course I am doing so they have taken a LOT of my spare time after work meaning when I do get some down time the last thing I want to do is go back onto a screen!  Anyway, this weeks desk was taken last night, nothing crafty going on at the moment just my laptop stand and my mouse, all my paperwork is pushed onto the floor as there isnt room on this little tiny desk.  But, main thing is from next week I should be able to get back to crafting and I cant wait!

Also hope you all have a fabulous Coronation bank holiday weekend, whatever you got up to.

The eagle eyed amongst you may spot the ATC's pushed to the right (I plan on finishing them today) and at the back is a roll of correction tape!  I still use a fountain pen to write and the liquid correction isnt great with fountain ink but the tape rolls seem to work!  Old skool I know!

So, whats on your workdesk this wednesday?

 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. Only a quick update from me as rather tight on time with the pay the bills job! However, updating my 365 journal (only a couple days late so chuffed with that). Also on my desk are my stencils as i have used one of them for my ATCs in readiness for the anniversary swap. 

As to the Man Bites Dog cards, well probably best i dont comment BUT my thoughts go straight over to the States!!

Also, for those that asked for the dandelion honey recipe from last week, this is the one i use (old skool, written in a book!). Pull off the greens as they can make them bitter, other than that, its quite easy and tastes delicious.
