Inspired by Finnabair

So as you know I have had very little inspiration of late and even less motivation to try anything, but on Tuesday the very talented Finnabair aka Anna did a live stream for Prima and Oh My Goodness was it good.
I absolutely love her style and composition of work so I grabbed all my supplies and started art'ing along.

I have to say Anna works very quickly and it took me twice as long to make the first tag, mainly because I had to improvise on most of the supplies but I got there eventually.

I haven't gotten around to making the second tag she made but I will.

I did realise one thing... I could definitely do with more Prima goodies...Anyone wanna buy me some lol
Right I best get on, Got some Stampotique subs to make for the DT call.
Thanks for stopping by x

My New Fur Babys

You may have already seen them on twitter or facebook but just in case you haven't here are the newest members of my family
This is Wallace

He's a right chatterbox and the outgoing one.

And this is Gromit

He has slight anxiety issues but does like a fuss.

Both boys are 14 and were adopted and brought home yesterday from Heavens Gate which is my local  National Animal Welfare Trust
We decided on these 2 as they were the oldest pair at the centre and needed a loving home as they had been at the shelter some time. We kinda fell in love with them b4 we even met them and the people at the centre were a little shocked I think that we said it was them we wanted.
But every kitty deserves to live their life in a loving home I think, I just wish I could of brought them all home.
I hope they will be very happy here and don't be surprised from now on if the odd pic or 2 appears on my blog lol
Thanks for stopping by to see my new family, Oh and if you fancy seeing a bit of art too my latest DT project is up over on the Snazzy's DT blog  x

WOYWW 159

Hay intrepid desk hoppers, Sorry i've been absent the past couple of weeks,
After the anniversary week I sunk into a bit of a depression but i'm slowly bouncing back
I wanted to say a belated thanks to Elizabeth & Bleubeard for my ATC

And also to May & Turie for swapping with me.

I didn't get around to swapping with all who asked, i'm sorry. I did make a few more ATC's

and I do still have to pick a winner of my remaining original atc's. {i've not forgotten}
Hopefully in a couple of weeks time when im feelin better i'll post a swap notice on my blog.
So to my desk.....
Well er it's in a bit of a sorry state i'm afraid, It's not seen much crafty action. Just the odd thing here and there.

The new colours of Tim inks have managed to make it to my desk though i've not yet played with them, sad but true. Right i've waffled enough.
Happy Desk Hopping x

Texture Overload!

This weeks theme over at
Simon Say Stamp'n'Show
is 'Texture'
And boy have I got plenty of that.

I am a HUGE fan of Anna Dabrowska {aka Finnabair}

Her work is truly AMAZING
So with a little help from a friend {you know who you are} I created this

Now to be fair I had no clue what I was doing and I think if I was to try the technique again {unsupervised} there are a few aspects I would do differently. Ideally what I'd like is for Anna to come to the UK and teach. But as that's not an option right now I shall keep playing and developing, For a first attempt i'm pretty pleased with myself.
So thank you Anna for the amazing inspiration, and thank you to my Sargent major er I mean teacher.

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
