Whats on your Hip Hip Hooray Celebratory Workdesk Wednesday???

Hello and a big welcome to this Anniversary mid-week moment as WOYWWers celebrate three years of desk memoires and confessions. All thanks to the one and only Mrs Julia Stamping Ground Dunnit. The occasion is of such grandeur, Mrs D has taken to Spanish shores to rejoice. Olé! My Wednesdays (and sleeping habits) are forever changed!
But in all seriousness, I am so very grateful indeed to Julia for WOYWW? It helped me take my first plunge into Blogdom, has brought lots of wonderful new artful friends and keeps me on sane ground! Thank you Julia. You are a real star!
Well, obviously I'm still around and so is the 38 week baby belly. Apart from my inflatable-dinghy feet, I'm feeling just fine and very energetic. It's all systems go with my Design Team projects. Almost done! It's one thing making them, blogging it all is a real chore. I've become Bloggled eyed. June's My Mojo Monthly is ready to rumble too! Here's a sneaky look - come back Friday for the full story!
My only play time has been in my Art Journal. This page is just a bit of fun, with a small statement too. I am someone, in life and crafting, who seems to dabble with all moods and views. Sometimes girly, sometimes Grungy...
and LOTS of this, that and the other in between. But for the record, even when it's all flowers and girly stuff galore... "I do sweet, not cute." I rest my case. I've got a full-on inky day ahead so I'm off to chase my final deadline. I'm in with the ATC swap - so I'll be hunting my partner down very soon! 
A Big Happy WOYWW to all! Adios! Sarah.

    Beautiful colours in your journal! Yes, they are "sweet" not "cute"!
    If you would like to swap one of those gorgeous tags (some weeks ago) for an ATC (or two), just let me know (but, please, don't feel obliged). Happy 3rd WOYWW Anniversary!

    Yay glad you made it, was wondering if baby would appear on this day, that would be a special WOYWW pic! Loving your journal pages, I must try to do this, I get scared that I'll mess it up. Take care & enjoy this special WOYWW. Zo xx 43

    Happy 3rd WOYWW!!
    I don't do 'cute' either, LOL! love the colours you've used on that page though :)
    Glad everything is going ok - I think my ankles are joining in and I'm not even pregnant! Have been doing a lot of the yoga exercises where you lie on the carpet with your legs at 90 degrees up a wall. Bizarre but fantastic for circulation (don't know if it's safe when you're expecting though...)
    Julia has to be congratulated for creating this wonderful, supportive, MAD, arty network of folk.
    I love it....

    Shame about the feet - see not only your belly gets bigger with pregnancy.
    Love your journal pages, so colourful they make me smile, and you are teasing us with the peek at Friday's post, the tin(?) looks gorgeous.
    Happy WOYWW and maybe next week you will have a very different creation to show us - one with fingers and toes.

    Awesome art, my friend! I can't take my eyes off the sardine tin... really, I've tried but I can't seem to look away. The wire to control depth = brilliant! And the strip of embossed foil = stunning. I really had to think that one out as I couldn't figure how you'd embossed the tin itself! Hope Bambino is treating you well as the big day draws ever nearer!
