WOYWW #409

Well, I'm back after a weeks absence. Managed to lose a day last week, and was convinced it was Tuesday. Mainly because Beloved Hubby had to work days last Monday for a course, which meant he stayed up Monday night instead of Sunday, so I thought Tuesday was Monday, and so on. Blame the diminishing working brain cells- they trip me up no end of times.
 So, the desk then, as I'm here to link up with Auntie Julia over at The Stamping Ground, to see what everyones up to.

Working my way through a whole batch of card fronts I've made up, using an assortment of Tim Holtzs Mixed Media dies.

Using them to make all sorts of cards, just changing the paper for the backing depending on what I'm going to turn it in to. There'll be a blog post with the first batch later in the week.

Here are all the die cuts, along with a selection of backing papers I'd sorted out. Another stash buster, using up random backing sheets made in the past- alcohol inks, oil pastels,  and some Brusho ones.

 Some recent E-Bay finds, the TH mini Blueprints,as I can definitely use them for Halloween. A lot of the blueprints don't grab me, understandably they seem very Americanised, but I liked these.
 The headphone die, and the birds on a wire are more cheap China dies, less than a couple of quid each, and as you can see, the headphones are quite a decent size.






Last, but not least, is something I'd have shown last week. Eldest Son, Ant, had taken up a new hobby, needle felting. Said it was something he could do to unwind after work,while watching telly at night, without having to pay too much attention to what he was doing.



 This awesome little penguin was part of my Mothers Day gift! He's only about 2" high, max. Just how sweet is he?


Anyway, thats me done for this week, so Happy Wednesday, and I'll see you later.
