Lots of paints and paper about the desk at the moment. I am trying to complete all my ATC swaps and get a little ahead of myself ...... Spring is definitely coming, the Ribes is in bud!!!
Yeah!
Go Flowering Blackcurrant with all your dangly red flowers!!
Ahem! Sorry! Where was I?
Oh! yes! I have completed some Zodiac signs which you can just about see at the back, with a couple more ATCs in front. I spent a pleasant afternoon, in between baking and washing (the girl is back in town), stamping and sticking and painting and generally getting messy.
I have two swaps this month with the theme Floral so I am using a set of stamps given away with a Papercraft magazine some time ago. Another swap is Oriental Theme so I have used a different free set of stamps for that. The Tree with Scales is free hand, Libra, but now of course I can't find my gold Stickles for the scales themselves!!!
If you would like to share your
Nice view Christine...I can't believe you usually take time to tidy for a desk shot! I like the scales..good drawing missus. Like that you're getting use out of the free stamps, I tend to leave them on the magazine until I forget about them, so have stopped buying the mags! Lots of colours on your desk, it's very cheery.
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, I have 3 ATCs to make too; I love your hand drawn ones. I always end up stamping as I'm not very confident with drawing. Have a good week and hope you find the gold Stickles. Sarah #10
ReplyDeleteI love your painterly desk this morning Christine. Very colourful and full of promise.
ReplyDeleteLove the zodiac atc's you have been making and I always like Oriental things as a theme. Seems to have been out of fashion, hope it is coming back.
Hugs, Neet 6 xx

ReplyDeleteLol!! I love the fact that you were a cheerleader for Ribes today :-D. It's such a welcome sign when they do flower, just like forsythia too. It looks as if you've been having a cracking time at your desk - I had to zoom in to get the full craftiosity!
