Welcome to another What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday! I hope it will be happy for you . . . . I have lots to do as usual . . . .
The Desk . . .
I'm copying . . . well, I don't think it's called copying . . . . more CASE . . .
Catching up on my emails the other morning I saw a stunning card here Texture Florals
Whoa! That is beautiful!
Just what I need for my October Colour card of Grey. I had already decided to make a grey card with pink embellishments (2nd best fave colours), so as you can see it is almost finished . . . . just watching glue dry lol
I have had a very busy weekend and have not really recovered completely, socialising seems to take it out of me these days . . . . so I am working at my desk . . . . . sitting down is good . . . .
The screen says it all . . . .
Definitely concur, if you're feeling tired, that sitting at the desk is good medicine in more ways that one. Yes love the pinks and greys, lovely colour combo. Hugs BJ#12
ReplyDeleteI love your screen saver, that made me laugh out loud!! Aren’t those pinks and greys gorgeous together, a really lovely combo. And I don’t think there’s anything wrong in taking inspiration from other folks’ ideas, I do it all the time! Hope you’re feeling better after the busy weekend and I’m glad the bag arrived ok xx

That is indeed a beautiful card Christine, a lot of work too! Yours will,look fab in pinks and greys, what a great way to re-style the idea. Love that you're being patient and using glue drying time as a positive way to recover from a busy weekend! Just about to take my Ma In Law out for some shopping, so my umbrella will be at the ready 😜

I have taken inspiration from others for all of my pieces, in fact they are more or less direct copies. I will, of course, give credit to the original artist. I don't think people bother if you credit them. It is a lovely card and I love pink and grey together. Often wear those colours.
ReplyDeleteTake care and sit when you need to. Some of us can't stand too long. That's why crafting is so good for us.
Hugs, Neet 5 xx
That’s a lovely card to CASE. Socialising does take it out you, I think it’s all the concentrating on the conversation. Happy WOYWW. Angela #10
ReplyDeleteI admit to laughing out loud at your screen saver Christine. Hope you are back up with the energy levels again soon. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #4
ReplyDeletelove the card, and the screen saver is fab, I concur with the sentiment!! happy WOYWW Helen #1
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated WOYWW. Copying/inspiration is 99% of my creativity! I love pink and grey too, as well as turquoise and grey, or jade and grey .... In fact, I love a lot of grey combos! I often have a sit down, especially after socialising and travelling. Quiet time is essential. Ali x #13
ReplyDeleteYep! Lashing rain and more rain and umbrellas here too. Love the pink and grey combo too. The cased card is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteCharming post, Christine! Your umbrella comment inspired an audible laugh! And yes, I hear you on the socializing. I find it - in most cases - to be exhausting these days, so I do as little of it as possible. And that's a reason I'm grateful for these creative communities.
ReplyDeleteAnd, it's so nice to meet you too!
