My Messy Desk

I found this bit of fun on Stamping Ground today - its called What's On Your Workspace Wednesday. Thought I would join in even though my space is a mess.  In the Messy Crafter Oymipics I could win gold on a good day! As for my craft mat - well that's soggy toilet paper - saw something on TV that I decided to have a go at last night - still waiting for the soggy stuff to dry out - more on that later if it works!

  5. Actually I thought it looked very neat, until I clicked on the close up, I have to admit there is a little clutter going on at the back there :-)

    Looking very creative though - look forward to seeing how your WIP turns out.

  7. I have made those tissue/toilet paper castings before and it is fun. Looks like you got a good impression from your stamps.

    Welcome to WOYWW. I am sure you will love it here. It's so much fun. And as a neat freak, I can assure you, your work desk is not all that messy. I'm curious as to what you are using for ink pad storage. Hope you'll explain next week. So of course that means you HAVE to come back! Happy WOYWW.

  22. this is such fun, you are my 22nd blog ive visited, dont think im gonna manage all of them, but ill soldier on. . that looks a great space, I use old tape storage to store my inkpads too, my tip is to colour some labels with the ink then cut up and put on the side then you can see what colour you want :).
