And time marches on - it's already the middle of the week. Yikes. Time for the snoop around the work desks, hosted by our friend Julia over at the Stamping Ground who provides the structure for all this snooping, not to mention loads of creativity and a great sense of humor.
This is what my desk looked like after FINALLY finishing the tags for this month's class at my local stamp store Stamp Cache. This month we're doing tags, so I made one little one, one BIG one, and one that was just right (tee hee - sorry I couldn't help myself). Any way this is what it looked like at the end:
What a disaster, eh? You can see the bunnies on the lower left that I was playing around. They were easy, but getting the butterfly right? Not so much. The trouble was I made one on just a piece of white paper to try out the colors and it was perfect. So then I set about to recreate it and it took, well, let's just say several tries. Finally I did it on Speciality Stamping Paper and it was fine.
You can see my tea cup right next to the water container for paint; and yes I have dipped my brush in the tea before. Whoops. Otherwise it's an assortment of TIM products, and wool felt. The felt was much fun to play with - just make sure it's wool felt, not acrylic.
Otherwise this week I was busy with my calendar page and other things and have no journal pages to show you....next week for sure. Hope everyone has a FAB week.
