What's on my work desk Wednesday

My desk this week



You can see a rather 'busy' desk here !
There are some stamped images I did at Art From The Heart a few weeks ago,using there Stampotique stamps, my pencils, a couple of tags I made with Lavinia stamps, some cards I made using up,the background paper I made a couple of weeks ago( you can see in more detail a couple of posts back) I coloured the Stampotique images and made a few cards, here is a couple of close ups of my Halloween cards. I will also link them to Simon say stamp for this weeks spooky challenge you can find out more here http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/









The floor is a mess and needs a good tidy up as well!

This is all I have achieved this week as I go to look after my daughter mon-Friday and have being doing so, for the last six weeks or so, as she is suffering with Hyperemesis Gravidarum, it's a pregancy related complication which 1% of pregnant women get. She has already spent time in hospital due to it. She has lost 10% of her body weight, however her baby is doing great and very wiggly!

If you would like to have a look round other crafty desk, then just click on the link on the right of my blog marked Stamping Ground and Julia will explain all
Thank you for taking time to leave a comment and read my post

    I absolutely adore those cards. I'm not much for making cards, but yours scream Halloween.

    Even though your desk is "busy," it is obvious so are you. I feel for your daughter and will keep her in my thoughts.

    Happy WOYWW from #7.

    Will definitely keep your daughter in prayer. It is good that the baby is doing well, when is her due date?
    Great cards too.

    I can really sympathise with what your daughter is going through. When my eldest daughter carried her twins she had the same....it's really awful to watch your daughter suffering with it isn't it? I really hope it improves very soon for her.

    Hi Jackie
    I was going to ask what desk as it was hard to see it under that lot.
    However you have been forgiven as you have been taking great care of your daughter and I am sure it has been a very worrying time for you all. Thank heavens the baby is doing well and I pray that the rest of the pregnancy goes smoothly for you all
    Happy WOYWW have an enjoyable week hugs Ria #22

    Oh your poor daughter. I was VERY sick in pregnancy, lost a stone and a half in the first 4 months and was in hospital twice with it. Best advice I got was from another sufferer in there to ask for suppository medication to stop the nausea. Baby didn't suffer at all, bet she is having a boy like me and Kate Middleton! I put on 5 stone in the last 5 months btw and am still heavier now than before pregnancy. She'll be fine, it WILL pass and she'll have a fine baby. Hugs BJ#1

    Now that is a busy desk Jackie,
    The cards are fantastic and will be a big hit I'm sure.
    It's amazing that you've achieved any crafting at all as you must be so worried about your daughter.
    Good luck and keep thinking positive thoughts.
    The little bundle of joy will be with you in no time and totally oblivious to the worry he/she has caused! ;D

    Fabby Stampotique goodies. So sorry to hear of your DDs issues. My SIL had the same, and same, too - the baby was fine. Fingers crossed for them both it all comes good in the end. Being in hospital is rubbish, but sometimes it's the best place to be. with luck it will keep to a minimum.

    Love that Right Hat quote too, BTW.


    Happy WOYWW!

    I'm so sorry for your gal..pregnancy was a breeze for me, and to hear that she's got HG is horrible for her. what a great Mum you are though, very reassuring to have you around I'm sure. Love the backgrounds you've used up, and the captions you've used on the hat card!

    So sorry to hear about your daughter. I do hope she will soon be feeling better. I was very sick with both my children, but never ill enough to be hospitalized. How upsetting for her, but I'm sure you're a great, supportive mum and it's lovely that you're there for her. I love your Halloween cards, so cute and different and lovely colours! Julie Ann xx #45

    Your Halloween cards are a treat, Jackie!! But I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter's condition. She got the short straw on that one, didn't she, bless her. I'm happy for her that at least she has you available to be there for her. I wish everyone all the best along the way! Hugs, Darnell
