WOYWW #334

This is WOYWWednesday - checkout the tab at the top of the page for further info - and our thanks go to Julia for hosting again.

And my desk?    I am filing my wallpapers in a lovely pale lavender folder, under the pretext that at last I will be able to find them when I need to!
I have several 'styles' now but my latest acquisition is a beautiful wood print, with pale pink roses dusted over it........... it's just on top of the silver books .......

Someone asked about 'wall papers' once .......



I use wall papers in various ways ......


.........fussy cut some images ........


....... cut out some of the details from the paper .....




........ fussy cut an image and then colour with watercolour pencils .........












......punch shapes and sentiments ........








....use as a background ..... punch some flowers ...........






...... use as a background with some fussy cut images and embellishment ....... 




I love using the wallpaper samples, one day I shall use some paint samples to match the paper!!!

Have a good week ........
UPDATED: OOOHHh!  Welcome Marcia, so pleased you're enjoying our desks, all very interesting with a bit of laughter thrown in for free!

    I wondered why my ears were burning, lol!!
