WOYWW # 229

Hello Wednesday Deskers!  (see tab at top of page for more info.)

My desk is still covered in ATCs - working my way through the 12 Days of Christmas.
Just an excuse really to sit in my craft room and ignore the weather (atrocious!) and the mess (house) while we wait for various bits and bobs of equipment to 'appear'.
I have posted ATCs for 7 + 8 days to the hostess and now working on 6 + 5 days but in between, while waiting for glue to dry, have also made some others - eagle eyed may spot some washi tape showing in the top left.
The square inkpads were purchased while at Dunelm looking for a shower mat (and whatever else they had interesting), I just happened to spot the enlarged craft corner.  As you may or may not know, my stamps are a bit like me - old, dried out, not always working and definitely not as good as they used to be - so when I saw the inkpads I thought I would invest in a few colours.  I tried them out and the white is perfect for Kraft paper,  I made the little colour chart to keep in my purse in case we passed by that way again ........

Nearly half an hour later my photo appears in my email so now I can post.............. have a good WOYWW day...........

  3. Great desk, love the ATC's, here is a tip for old dried out rubber stamps, coat them with clear glycern, the next time you use them they will be supple again! Happy WOYWW! Lindsay #80

  17. A great busy desk this week - with some lovely ATCs. Going into Dunelm is always good fun, but even more so now they have started their craft area - the one in Bangor even has a lovely café!! More excuse for visiting.
    Have a good week.
