WOYWW The Anniversary Edition!

I can hardly believe that WOYWW has been going for a whole 3 years now.
It only seems like yesterday I stumbled upon Julia's desk and wondered what the heck, then got sucked in and the list of peeps grew and grew and the rest as they say is history.
So I would just like to say a BIG THANK YOU to Julia for bringing all us nosey desk hoppers together, I've made a fair few friends because of you xxx
So to my desk..

Regular visitors to my blog will know my poor desk hasn't seen much action lately hence why it looks a bit bare, The white thing is a Prima Mixed Media album gifted to me by The Headmaster {aka snazzy boss Don} I thank him ever so much & can't wait to play in it.
The other new thing you may spy is a pasta maker, My darling OH got it for me for my clay play so I hope to be putting that to good use too once i'm back into the swing of things.
Now to the ATC's

I made these a few weeks ago in readiness for today knowing that i'd probably forget till it was too late.
In addition to the "official" atc giveaway, I have a few others to give to a couple of selected random peeps who leave a comment on today's WOYWW post.

Not sure if i'm gonna do 2 sets of 3 or singles or what to be honest, you'll just have to wait and see!!
Well it's all part of the fun isn't it. I'll post the winners for the "extra's" in next weeks woyww
Right i'm off to hop some desks
Happy 3rd Anniversary WOYWW You ROCK

Fit for a Queen.

Over at The Stamp Man their challenge is
'Card for a Queen'
Well what started off as a card sort of got bigger and bigger and ended up as a scrapbook layout

I used papers and elements from the Prima Almanac collection {available @ Snazzys}

 the bunting was made using Tim's pennants die, 

and you can just see the shimmer from a few sprays of biscotti perfect pearl mist

I'd say this was worthy of a royal pardon for not being a card lol
Thanks for stopping by.

Mousing Around!

Hay peeps, Sorry for the lack of blogging,
I was frantically trying to get my mum's present finished and posted and then the past few days I needed a little break, I crafted myself out I think lol
But i'm back now and wanting to show you my creation for the
Compendium II Challenge
This week it's Technique 5: Shattered Stains Tim Holtz A Compendium of Curiosities, Volume 2, page 48 Sponsored by Simon Says Stamp

 My inspiration for the project came from the very talented Shelly Hickox who altered some mouse traps back in April after being inspired herself by a pin on pin interest by Suzy.
As soon as I saw both creations I just knew I wanted to play too.

But when they came my mind went a blank till now when I decided to try the shattered stains on it.
I used a grunge heart, and some alpha parts, as well as die-cutting letters with the wordplate die.
I also coloured the metal with alcohol ink. I applied a small strong magnet to the back so it can sit on my fridge or metal noticeboard.
I'm quite pleased how it turned out, be prepared to see more over the upcoming weeks lol
Right I best be off, the sofa is calling me.
Catch ya in blogland x

WOYWW 153

Hay Desk Hoppers
Just a quickie from me today, I'm in the middle of making a gift for an upcoming birthday so have had to remove said item from the pic, but there are some clues of what i've been using still on show.

You may also notice a new tag box that I made from mountboard, It's still in the process of being finished, but it does a fab job of keeping all my tags finished and blank together.
When I do finish it, I will take proper pics and blog.
Right I best crack on, times ticking away.
Hope to hop round to see you soon.
Stay Inky
