Well, its been a while since my desk looked this- and how much fun I had getting back into some crafting. If you want to see the cards I made, they're in the post below this one. So why am I revelling in an untidy desk? Because its Wednesday (again), and our fantastic hostess, Julia at The Stamping Ground, is hosting yet another snoop/stalk around the worlds desks.
Do join in if you've not seen this before (where HAVE you been?)- it's a sort of visual eavesdropping on your fellow crafters :).
Physio is coming along nicely, and one of my exercises is small, circular movements, to get the shoulder moving. Small circular movements, I thought. Sounds a lot like sponging, to me. So I'm crafting, on the Physiotherapists orders- at least thats what I'm sticking too! Have a great day everyone, and I'll meet up with you out on the web somewhere.
Rubber Art Stamping & Card Making.

Busy desk, had a look at your previous post the cards look fab....Francesca #72
Well if the physio says then who are you to argue! Debbie #69 xXx
Love, love your cards! I'm amazed, seriously! Simple and sweet. :)
Totally trying this technique in the future.
Happy WOYWW from Egypt. xx
Roudi #76
I did look back and your cards are beautiful Shaz and well done for doing what the Physio said - I think! If it is doing you good then that is all that matters....keep healing. Happy WOYWW, Anne x #57
Lovely cards and love how you have incorporated your exercises into your crafting.. lol
Sandy :) #29
Your cards a simply stunning. I had to go and check your previous post and I love the ideas and the effect is goregous. thanks for sharing.
Sandra@67
Hehehe I'm chuckling here about you using your crafting as physio....I did the same when I had my knee replaced....it's surprising hom much bend you can get on a knee when you put your foot behind the legs on your computer chair and spin the chair gently :-)
Hugs,
A x #47
Happy WOYWW..great workspace - are you sure you have enough sponges though? ha ha..good luck with the physio, know when I had a frozen shoulder and couldn't craft how good it feels when you can do that little bit more each day... take car..Gill x (#97)
Everyone should have a prescription for crafting! Love your cards. Thanks for visiting the bears this week.
Oh what a wonderful sight, lots of inks spread over a desk. A true sign of some fun being had and doing you good at the same time.
Love the card
Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog
Ria #92
Ha! what a good excuse to be crafting - physio crafting!!!! I wish there was a way to do that for my knee - maybe I should start foot painting or something!
Lovely busy desk, must be fun in a very organized crafty room! Enjoy!
Lots of hugs,
Cardarian
Yes, to be honest - I am really scared about the amount of stuff we store in our "creative-playing-room"... ;)
Thanks for your lovely visit today!
Your desk really looks like you enjoyed your crafting time - awesome colour palette!!!
Greetings from Vienna,
die amelie x
How great to have such an enlightened physio, more or less telling you to craft. I can't believe you have a wren nesting in such a strange place. We have not seen any for ages. xx Maggie #20
Hi Shaz,
I have looked at your previous post and your cards are stunning.
Now you must do what you are told by the physio. They know what you need to do to get well...
Your licence to play, play, play.
First class cards.
Regards,
Nelle xx #89
Yip, I am with you on the following of orders there...distress sponging to be exact!
First I want to say I'm glad your arm is healing. And if you have to craft for your health - well then that's something you must do. ;-)
Also thank you for stopping by my blog. My kitty was purring at your comment. :-)
And WOW - I LOVE those cards. And speaking of pinterest - I will be pinning your cards to my board because they are GORGEOUS!

I was just about to suggest sponging for therapy then I read on! Super cards.... really stylish!
Take a look on line for your nearest HomeBargain shop they have so many quality items and so cheap. I saw them open their first shop in 1980s and now he's got over 200 countrywide.

I took a peek at your cards and they are stunning, and you're right, it's always good to have a supply of birthday cards on hand! Love your therapy....crafting is the best kind! Thanks for visiting my desk, waving hi from the hills of North Carolina ♥
Loved your previous post. Those cards are great and at least you are under physio's orders. ;-)
You sponge away, it's a necessity!! LOL Love the colours you have going on your desk, that green is fab! Annette #18
Great looking desk and I love the cards n the post below. I think if sponging works then I would stick to it too! Have a great week. Thanks for sharing. Vickie #35
Plenty of greenery here and I love your physio idea! Happy WOYWW, hugs Jenny #150
Crafting on physios orders...what a wonderful excuse! Love the look of those beautiful cards and all those wonderful sponges. Have a great week. Thanks for sharing. Caro #59
