This is my desk first thing this morning. I'm following Dina Wakley's on line journaling course which I would recommend to anyone, very informative and full of ideas.
You can see from this photo that I'm managing to fill the storage unit that my hubby made for me, he's already got an order in from one of my friends, lol. Stamps, Viva paints and pastes, Moleskin journal, Big shot.
I've got a friend coming today and we're going out for lunch, so she will want to have a peek in my craft room, oops, sorry studio, so have had a mad tidy and quick vac and this is the result.
Couldn't help just placing the new T!m papers on my May page for the 365 Art Journal which I am taking part in which is being organised by the wonderfully talented Kate Crane. And don't you just love my fabby pink leather journal? I can't stop stroking it.Don't forget to take a look a Julia's blog to see what other people are up to. Now you all have a good day. I'm over the moon because I've been really ill for the last 10 days or so because I've had a terrible reaction to the chemo, so after seeing the consultant yesterday he's stopped it and hopefully will not have to go back on it again, fingers crossed, just having to cope with the steroids and the 2 stone weight gain!!!!!
Whoah, this is real inky finger stuff!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting snooperama today!
