Ho Hum


Made some more of the Mr Men cards today to see whether I'd make a better job... unfortunately I met a slight hitch when I discovered Little Myz had left the top off the glue yesterday so that's unuseable now *rolls eyes* but I found a small amount of liquid glue and used that...warped the card a bit so hopefully I'll be able to get more 'nice but expensive' glue soon lol....

So here they are... nothing special but most influenced heavily by those pictured in the magazine Let's Make Cards so I guess maybe it's me with the problem- don't know ok cards when I see them lol.... I showed hubby the cards I made with the invertage/pyrimage kit from Create and Craft and he said he didn't like them...I think it's more the patterns than the way they are made.... wish I hadn't bought them now...... for a lot less money I could have got the Smiley Bears that are on there at the moment :( .. can't afford them now but they look ace....anyone out there got them yet? .... lol anyone want to swap anything younger for the 'oldie' pyrimage things? Only made 2 out of about 40 cards the rest is sitting there looking forlorn.... I don't think I know enough old people lol.....

I kept seeing people take photos of their work areas on Wednesdays so here is mine... there is a table under there I assure you

  1. I love your desk! :D :D If you have time nip on over to Julias blog and say hi http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/ She's the one who started WOYWW and in her comments you'll see links to more people who are doing it too :P

    What about selling the kit you don't like on eBay? That might give you a few more pennies. Or UKScrappers forums has a market place section where people sell crafty stuff, I've sold a few bits on there. Can pick up a few bargains too ;)

  2. Not sure whether the Ebay idea would float.... Ebay is where I buy things for pennies that other people have bought in the past and haven't used lol... and now if anyone runs a 'blind swap' nobody will let me join as they knooooow what they'll get hehehe

  4. Your working surface looks like the desk of a creative genius for sure. I'm guessing that like me, you work in a square inch of space somewhere on the edge! Love all those bright colours and characters you're working with; I think the cards you just made are fab. Welcome to WOYWW - download a button for your blog if you like - the code etc is on my blog; such a lovely way to have anose around people's creative spaces!

  5. I too had an area like that last week ... creative and tidy rarely go together ... those who are creative are also usually alergic to housework and have a degree in putting off boring things in favour of crafts.xx
