WOYWW 445 - 13.12.17



Afternoon crafty friends!

Happy WOYWW, I can't believe how this week has flown by. To visit more crafty desks for inspiration swing by and see Julia at the stamping ground.

My desk isn't very busy today as I have been doing a bit of sofa crafting.
So on my desk, from left to right, a project from a previous blog post in the top left corner. A pack of wet wipes, a wet wipe I used to clean a stamp with. A project I am half way through and my two new Tombo mono erasers. Nothing too exciting hehe .
So today I have been painting and watercolouring and stamping.





Thank you for spending some of your day with me!
Crafty hugs and happy WOYWW!

    Hi Ellie, been doing a bit of sofa crafting myself tonight but thought I had better get on and do some visits before bed. It's raining here now but not sure what we'll find in the morning. Love your water colouring today, very sweet. Happy creative woyww, Angela x13x

    What a gorgeous background on that first toadstool photo. Love the owls, and I just love toadstools anyway.
    Nothing better than sofa crafting, especially when it is cold outside.

    What cute little projects! I'm assuming sofa crafting means you are sitting on the sofa, crafting, not crafting sofas (as I was originally picturing!)LOL! Thank you for your visit to mine, and have a wonderful week! Lindart #27

    Oh, I like your colouring, very well done, it is something I am so rubbish at, always envy those who can.
    Thanks you for dropping by my blog, yes I find it so frustrating when I misplace things, and with only one room for everything, it had to be there.

    What on earth is a mono eraser?! It looks like an ordinary rubber to me but it has to do something different. Your colouring and watercolour painting are fab, I wish I had the patience to achieve such lovely results!

 Good Morning Friends Happy WOYWW! So today, my desk is a tad empty. Yesterday there was no room to move as I had finished the advent swap envelopes.  So I had a trip to Bristol so popped into Hobbycraft to grab a few things, one being this pack on pretty coloured cardstock. I have also been playing with some more acrylic pouring, this was a dirty pour using the left over paint I had from making a gift. I use the spotty paper cups to pour the paint. I just wanted to apologise that I do take a few days to catch up, on reading your lovely blogs. I hope you don't mind as I like to relax with a cuppa and have a read of a few each day. Speaking of a cuppa I am enjoying a coffee right now, ready to start the day. If you want to join in with this desk madness, head over too The Stamping Ground! Thank you for spending some of your day with me. Ellie x

Hello Everyone! Today I have spent the morning sanding drawers for my advent calendar. Lots of dust and sandpaper. See more desks at the stamping ground, click here. Sharing my work desk for the first time today, a lovely friend, Sarah (www.sarahscraftshed.co.uk) told me about it and I was very excited to take part. If anyone else would like to join in head over to the link I posted above and get involved every Wednesday. On yesterday's blog I posted a photo of a background I had created using distress inks, I decided to make something using this colourful piece today. To start I cut the watercolour card in half so I could create two toppers or mixed media pieces. Firstly I used my 'Phill Martin Sentimentally yours' background stamp called 'Splatterlicious cracked & splattered background'. I love this stamp, I never use it on a block or using a stamp platform. I find I get wonderful effects just holding it and pressing certain areas into the ink, the

Happy Wednesday ! My second time posting for WOYWW and I am really enjoying myself, if you want to take part pop over to this pace. Its great fun seeing each others desks and crafty mess haha. This is my desk, a mess I know hehe! Okay, so working left to right on the first picture. Lots of ribbon on the left and a little jar of metal embellishments, a tub of bows, stick pins, mdf butterflies, a round box covered with vintage style tissue paper, small flowers and gems. Lastly on the right is adhesive glitter paper. This is a closer view, with all the goodies on my desk I decorated the box lid. So now I start being crafty if you would like to see the step by step, please read on. So to begin, I ripped some of the glitter adhesive paper into strips and stuck them randomly on the box. Next I cut some pieces of different ribbon and folded them in half. I then stuck the cut ends to the lid. I did this to add dimension to my arrangement. Then I chose th
