2012-02-08T10:07:00.004Z

Well can you believe its been a week since we all joined the lovely Julia over at the Stamping Ground and shared what we have on our craft/work desks.

This week my desk is a bit of a mess (may have to tidy it up later ) so what can you see? The ribbon has been dumped there by my OH after he used it to spruce up our very tired pinboard, my promaker chart, Stampin Up Expressions newsletter (yes believe it or not I am signed up as SU demo (several months ago) just havent got round to doing anything with it!), my create a cup cake punch, a saturated canary image thats been there a week, Oh and a dangerous weapon (the scissors); my son used them last night and managed to slice the top off his finger, I honestly don't know how!!!!

Thats it really, off to visit as many of you as poss.

Good morning, where do the weekends go!!

As promised last week I'm back today to share a couple of cards you haven't seen yet, these are using one if my new fab stampin up sets create a cupcake it's soo quick and easy to create a card Ruth these as they have a co-ordinated punch which takes all the hard work out!!! The first one is made with melon mambo card and DP and the 2nd (my fav) old olive and aubergine.

Now don't forget its Monday, which means its time for another Crazy Challenge , this week we are looking for fairies, we are being sponsored by Dtsarts and the prize is 2 digis of your choice. Its also really exciting as we have some new members on the Design team so pop on over and say hello to the new girls.

Pretty in Pink

2012-01-29T18:15:00.003Z

I am so in love with these images from Saturated Canary, this one is called Naveah isn't she sweet.

I'm not sure what the background paper is as it was a scrap I found in my box but thought it went lovely with her pink dress, the hearts and butteflies are Martha Stewart and the heart strip is an old xcut border punch, and the crown is from mei flowers.

I'm entering this for the Saturated Canary Challenge which is punches and dies.

2012-01-25T08:47:00.004Z

Good morning, its Wednesday again so that means its time to share your desk with all the lovely peeps who join in WOYWW. As you can see my desk is a real mess, its covered in bits of paper these are my particular favourite at the mo (Stampin up - Love letter) also sadly they are no longer available so once they are gone thats it!!! The stamp set is another Stampin up product Create a Cupcake, is another favourite and it comes with a matching punch.

You can also see I have a card in the middle of my workspace its my DT card for the Crazy Challenge at the end of the month (hence why its covered but you can see a little bit of that lovely paper!)

I felt so guilty looking at this photo I decided to have a tidy up and my desk now looks like this, it won't last long!!

Thanks for poping over have a lovely Wednesday.

Hugs Pam

Something a bit different

2012-01-24T17:31:00.002Z

Ive been asked by one of my neighbours to make some cupcakes for a baby shower at the beginning of Feb, so at the weekend I had a bit of a play around in the kitchen (much to my kids delight, cause they get to sample!), and this is what I came up with - what do you think? I'm slightly (!) biased but I thought they were pretty cute!!

Good morning, can't believe I'm managing to join in again this week!!!

As you can see there as beeen a bit of work going on and there are 2 new cards that I managed yesterday, I decided that rather than buying new stamps I am going to revisit some of my old ones (although there may be some slight deviations on the way:-))

Good morning, well its a long time since I joined Julia and the rest at WOYWW but here I am , as you can see from my desk I have finally done some crafting, I am easing myself in slowly as sitting at my desk too long makes my neck ache but apart from that and the stinking cold I just dont seem to be able to shift I am on the mend (even my bruised coccyx from my tumble down the stairs is starting ease off!).

I will try and photograph the card on my desk later so you can get a better look, and it will be in my etsy shop (link to right) later today.

Thanks for visiting

Pam

Happy New Year

2012-01-04T19:20:00.002Z

Good Evening, hope you all had a lovely christmas and new year. We had a fairly quiet christmas and new year was a little busier! I am well on the mend now although still not sleeping very well mainly because I cant lie on my back due to falling down the stairs which means Ive been sleeping on my side which aggrivates my neck!!!

I have done very little crafting (actually my husband made quite a few xmas cards - it was quite amusing to watch!!). I have however been knitting these fab scarfs which are now for sale on my Etsy Shop (link on the right),they are lovely to wear I have one in the same colour as the photo and may just treat myself to a green or red one next!

Update on me and a card

2011-12-06T09:16:00.004Z

Evening peeps, it's been a week since my op and I'm up and about trying to get back some energy!!! I didn't realise how big an op it was until I read all the paperwork afterwards!! I had an arterial cerebral discectomy and fusion which basically means the surgeon drilled out and replaced 2 of the discs in my spine then added 2 metal cages to strengthen the spine! I was only in 2 days but am now house bound as I can't drive for 2- 3 weeks n can't do any housework for a couple of weeks n definately no heavy lifting for 3 months!!!

I am hoping to get back to my crafting next week but in the meantime I remembered I haven't shared a few cards with you recently so here is one, this all the products on this card are stampin up.

Hugs Pam x

Update

2011-11-28T08:19:00.001Z

My blog will not be updated till early next week as I am having my operation in my spine today, and therefore out of circulation for a few days.

WOYWW - 23 November

2011-11-23T10:03:00.002Z

Good morning , I cant believe I havent updated my blog since the 2nd November, so if you've popped over I am sorry. Even though I'm not working at the moment life seems to pass so quickly. I am off tomorow to oxford for another MRI on my spine, and may be having an operation on Monday to so it out so this may be my last post for a while.

On my desk today you can see I have finally started my christmas cards, and thats about it so pretty boring to be honest!!

Thanks for popping by.

WOYWW - 2 November 2011

2011-11-02T09:31:00.003Z

Good morning, hope you are all well. Just a quick post as I am off out to meet a friend for coffee (I could get used to being a lady of leisure!). I dont know what I done with my time when I was working, I seem to get less crafting done now that then! On my desk this week is the invitations that I have been working on for my nephew and his fiance, they will be going in the post to them today, so thats one job ticked off my list!

Thanks for poping by I will return your visit later today.

Yah I actually have managed to join in ths week! Life has been a bit hectic, Ive been made redundant and am still seeing the speciaist as I have found out I haven't got carpal tunnel but fused discs in my back which are causing the numbness in my hand and general weakness on my left hand side. Ok thats my update onto my desk, its a bit of a mess and considering how little crafting I've been doing its not good!! As you can see I am working on Xmas cards, using the SU Pennant Parade stamps and punch, think this set is going to become a firm favourite.

Ok that it from me today, I am baking cupcakes as I have a class to run tonight, and have 2 cards to make for my nephew for the weekend, and not sure where the time to do it all is coming from. I am also off 1st thing tomorow to cornwall for 5 day with my son and some girlfriends and their kids, so looking forward to it!

What a week...

2011-10-15T12:57:00.003+01:00

i haven't been around much have had lots of things going on in my life one of which was I was made redundant (after 6 yrs) on Wednesday of this week, and now until I find a new job means I will have a lot of free time on my hands. The good thing is I can now start thinking about getting all my xmas cards and wedding orders done, the sad thing is I need to find another job and I will miss my colleages (well some of them!). So hopefully whilst I get my head around being a lady of leisure I will be able to post on here a bit more.

Good Afternoon, sorry I havent been around much I dont know where the time goes!!! I thought I'd share the table plan and cards that have just finished in time for a wedding next Friday, the bride collected them today and was really pleased with them (phew!). Unfortunately the pictures aren't great (sorry)!

I now need to crack on with my nephews stationery as he gets married 23rd March next year, and would like to get it out of the way before I see the specialist about my carpol tunnel as I may end up out of action for few weeks.

Ok I need to crack on with dinner now, I will be back tomorrow with the next crazy challenge.
