Good morning!! It’s a overcast cool morning here.
Wow, I can’t believe it is already a week passed. First of all I want to say thank you to all the people that spent some time at my desk and left me such lovely comments. I was so excited each time I read a new comment.
This is my second week hoping around and snooping on desks all over the world. I went on vacation with one person to an exotic island while looking at her family vacation photos. I saw mixed media artists, scrappers, cardmakers, gardens, cats, jewlery, the works. It was truly inspiring. I did not manage to make it to everyone’s desk so please forgive me. I will do better this week.
My desk
Last week, being my first week, I was bit shy to show you what was behind curtain #1. But after seeing all your desks I felt a little liberated this morning and thought I would let my hair down a bit. So as you can see my desk has a lot going on. I will break it down for you.
So, what am I working on?
Some digi images to use for my cards for my shop
Well I have some images that I prepared for coloring with my Copics. I consider myself still a beginner when it comes to blending. But I suppose I can only improve with time. I am trying to learn how to color bubbles for the little girl blowing the bubbles image. I will share them once I figure it out. These will be used on some upcoming cards I am making for my new Etsy store, Belinda’s Crafts (yup a shameful plug)!
My Project Life album
Another project I am working on is my Project Life album. A few years back when Becky Higgins started this whole thing, I was so excited and vowed to create an album. Bought the stuff, documented two weeks and then never touched it again. So here I am years later giving it another go. It’s funny how we see ourselves and then how we really are. Because I am once again behind. Nope, your eyes are not playing tricks on you, I am working on Week 12. Pathetic. I can say that I have all the pictures. Just haven’t sat my butt down to do the work.
New Spellbinders
I just bought my Spellbinder about a month ago and I have been having fun with all the pretty shapes. So these are some new ones I am playing with. Lot’s of fun. My sons, Nicholas and Apollo love to crank the handle for me. Oh if you noticed, my cup of tea wasn’t in the first photo but it is here because I ran down and fixed it before completing this post. I love tea and this is one of my favorite mugs. Very fitting for creating time.
My Italian Calender
Another thing you will learn about me is that I have a love for languages. Not that I speak anything but English but I am facinated by them. My husband is multilingual and a goal of mine for quite some time has been to learn Italian. So I thought I would share my word of the day with you all. It is bambola which means doll. So if any of you speak Italian and want to share some knowledge I am here.
Well I better get going so that I can start spanning the globe looking at other desks. If you haven’t learned about this amazing creative journey you can take every Wednesday, then head on over to Julia’s Stamping Ground and you will find desks from all around the world for What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday.
