WOYWW 480- 15th August 2018 - birthday goodiesl



Good morning lovelies!!

Happy WOYWW! If you would like to join in or have a peek at more desks please click here to visit the stamping ground.

So the past few days I have been making birthday cards and goodies as it seems all family and friend birthdays are in the next 3 month's.

A birthday card for my other halfs father. My new unicorn mug on the right.  Love it!! Some flowers I die cut and layered up for decorating my mother's goodies.

Speaking of those goodies, this is a little open up pocket of crafty goodies when it's finished.

Nearly finished the front. Lots of die cut unicorns in one small packet with a little window. The flowers have been used too. 

Another cuppa :) 

Thank you for spending some of your day with me.
Crafty hugs!

    Lots of lovely crafty pieces on your desk Ellie. I love the idea of opening a hand crafted card and finding more crafty bits and pieces inside it.
    Great mug!!

    Gorgeous craftiness going on Ellie. I love the idea of the little pocket full of goodies. Thanks for stopping by mine, the insect stamps are mainly from the Tim Holtz Entomology set. I used quite a few stamps so if you want details about any particular ones then let me know and I'll try and find the info - I've got it somewhere!
    Have a great week,

    Hi Ellie, it is frustrating when you have lots of birthdays all together, but you are doing well with your cards. Lovely idea putting crafty goodies in cards.
    Thanks for visiting my desk and the nice comments.
    I'm only doing Christmas cards early because we need to send them out early with our new address, normally I am panicking in November.

 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
