WOYWW #738

Today the sun is shining after all the rain, if only for a morning!!!
The Desk


Another mixture!  So much to do.  Coffee cup half drunk already and it's not even noon!!!
There is a funeral announcement from Africa.  My beloved son's Mother.  How I have loved that Family of God . . . so many, many happy memories . . . . 
The New list for August has appeared . . . I know . . . . the year is slipping past and I'm nearly into Autumn!
ATC bases and a dictionary page have also appeared . . . . some time ago I had a play with Distress inks and embossing powders.  I tried to use the colours for future swaps so that I had ready made ATC bases when the time came . . . this month it's Lilac/Purple . . .I have found some super animals to use on them . . ..  watch this space as there might be a host of catch up posts . . . .
I am now collecting in my harvest from the garden, only small but I have peas, beans and  . . . 

Potatoes!!!!  Bear in mind that the original spuds were planted back in 2022 by Dx . . . we never managed to dig them up so, when they put in an appearance this spring,  I just left them . . . .  this result was dug up by SILR . . . . tiny and delicious!   You didn't think I was going to leave them in the dish!!??!

WOYWW #737

There are people in this world who would love our temperatures and rain . . . . . just saying . . . 

 WOYWW - This is the day deskers around the world meet up for a chat and show What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.  We help, inspire, sympathise and laugh out loud . . become very good friends.  The deets are at the top of the page . . . . all thanks to our lovely Head Desker Julia . . 

The desk is a work in progress at the moment.


I have folded some cardstock ready to produce some masculine designed cards.  The paper I intend to use are leftovers from paperpads bought in a past era.  Never used so this is their chance . . . . if they don't get used this week then they are binned!

To the left are some ATC style papers, I have been flower pounding . . . . but couldn't find a hammer!!!  I brought my box of tools to this house (in a past era!) and I don't know how many times I have had to replace some of these tools.  I put them back when I've used them but PJ just put them down . . .

So I have no lightweight hammer!!  I've used a mallet but it don't work so good   lol

I shall have to give in and buy a new hammer given that I have a shedload of tools in the garage . . . .!

So that's my desk and here's the screen . . 


Ain't that the truth!

PS

I collect my screen wallpaper while perusing Pinterest in the early hours when I can't sleep, for those who were interested in where they came from.

It's Butterfly Month!

I may not be having any in the garden (although the Lavender and Buddleias are in full bloom), I am surrounded by them in my craft room.

I have made all my ATC and Coin swaps for the month . . .

Colour - Blue and Orange

Coin 1 - Butterflies

Coin 2 - Trees

This last one was sold to me as an X box . . . . . then DGSD informs me it's a Switch!!!  Well, I'm an oldie and don't play the game . . . for my card . . .it is X for XBox!!!

The screens this month are all about butterflies as well . . 
Have a good week
