October 28, 2009

A lot of sparkle and WOYDW!

I liked the papers I used on my card yesterday so much I thought I could use some more of it today.



I created this card using the sketch from Cupcake Crafts. Anya Ink want to see 2 ribbons, circles and staples. The Greetings Farm challenge us to use at least two punches and Simon Says sparkle!



I used a new Christmas Anya stamp, shaded with ProMarkers and as much Glamour Dust as I could dust on. The purple and pink glittery ribbon are more magazine freebies and I attached the bow with pink staples. My circles are the cute glittery brads by Doodlebug. If you can't spot the punches, I've used a Martha Stewart snowflake and a Fiskars border punch.



Next up I'm going to shame myself and show you a photo of how my desk looked about 45 minutes ago. It's not improved much since then! I'm joining in What's on Your Desk Wednesday over at Stamping Ground. You can see my new Martha Stewart Christmas stamps, my Slice which I'll be using whilst waiting for my new bug, my box of mats and layers that I'm now glad I never threw away and generally everything I didn't put away this week.



I nipped round to a friends for coffee this morning to borrow a travel cot for our looming trip to Centre Parcs, although each villa has a cot we didn't want to pay extra to rent another one.

    I've got some of that pink textured card from the Paper Mill Shop, it's great isn't it! Lots of twinkle on this card too!
    Oh to see your desk! I was all set to link mine to Julia's WOYWW, and she hasn't posted today yet. I'd steeled myself for it too!
    Maybe later!
    I didn't know you had a Slice! Do you like it?

    She looks so happy - I love her!!!! As for your work station - mine looks twice as bad when I am working on a project, though I try to tidy it all up when I am finished for the night - doesn't always happen though.

    Now that crafting space looks more like mine! I'm so glad I'm not alone in making loads of mess when I craft and ending up with 2x2 to work in.
    Great card sweetie.

    Darling card!! I LOVE that color combo!! I think I have you beat...you can't even see the tops of the counters that I work on. I have been forced to the clear space just in front of my keyboard on the other end of my desk. I think I may loose something this time...lol
