What's on your Workdesk Wednesday...? Do tell...

Hello to all the Blogettes, Typee's and WordPressers, etc., and another Wednesday,
  Time to celebrate another nosey around - and the arrival of mid-week for all those desperate for the weekend. Thanks to Julia at Stamping Ground, we have the chance to share whatever is occurring on your crafty work-desk. All genres, rants, ramblings, states of chaos and insanity allowed. As you can see I am in mid-flow and would like to adopt the term "work in progress" to justify all the mess. Been busy doing quite a lot lately (see last two posts) and I am now up to my knees with a major tag project/challenge which must be done by Friday so that I can breathe, blog and get to bed before 3am...

Rather lurvely tags in the making - even if I do say so myself...(which I am). Bit of everything happening with these lovelies...
Starting on some adornments too with a flower. It is actually a lovely rust colour - but it looks like I have just dusted it with cocoa here. I have been baptised in the joys of a glue gun. Great gadget - saves loads of time - I am blessed to own the very rare "Fall over to the left and splodge Model". Hope to show the finished tag piece by the weekend. (Don't quote me on that one).

Short and Sweet today - a miracle indeed. Enjoy mooching around and see you out there.

Thanks for visiting - I know there's a lot of desks to get to - so a very big Thank you for calling by and taking the time to say something. It is always greatly appreciated and I read them all...

Farewell Fairest Folk, we'll meet again...

    Ooo, thanks for sharing very interesting tag there how did you get the silvered effect on the embossing.. it looks like it was cuttlebug textile... but maybe it is an embossed stamp instead??

    That 'rusty' flower is just glorious - dark, strong, 'look-at-me' but quietly confident ...

    Thanks Sarah for your reply... and where did you get the copper from as I have looked for it, was wondering what inks took on metal ones I tried did not! there were not alcohol. will check out You tube as you said.. need to learn more as did enjoy my little venture into it this week..dont you love learning new things? trouble is every day seem to get new orders from calligraphy so may have to postpone learning in that area as now have four not two!!

    That's just the sort of desk I like - lots of messy fluids, lol. Love the rose. I also have one of those glue guns, I've run out of sticks and I'm panicking, gasping for breath, lol.
