What's on my work desk Wednesday

Here is my desk, with some different crafting products ...

On the left you can see my pan pastels, they have not been out for awhile, and some silk by products, I want to try and use ! At the back in the pencil case is my stamp craving stuff, as I want to have a go a craving my own...... Not sure how they will turn out!!!!!!!!!

Lots of ribbons and threads, I got out to match a page I was working on, then didn't use! A stencil that a friend gave me for my Birthday last month, my Latte mug, on the right at the back some woodern bits I bought on Sunday and infront of them stamps and ink pad.

The shopping at Stamperama, I'm sure you would like to see so here it is ....

And here is a picture of Liz doing a demo with her new set of stamps at the Paperarty stand at Stamperarma in Stevenage on Sunday

And here are her very first set of stamps she has drawn herself...

As for me I have finished my Lara journal page and here it is 

Here is a picture of the ATC's I made for a Black and White swap!

And on The first Saturday of the summer months Myself and my friend Tanya organise a workshop for a group of friends ( Liz above is one of this group)! And we pay for a tutor to come and run our workshop. This month it was John Glossop who came and ran our workshop, we have had a fabulous summer of great tutors! Our workshops are about learning different techniques that we can take away and use in our own way, here is a picture showing some of the technique tags we made at this workshop..... Faux marble, leather etc.....

Also we used cardboard..

And with paint turned it into this...

To make it look like rusty old metal....  A great Saturday!

So with the workshop on Saturday, Stamperama on Sunday and hubby surprised me and my crafty friend Kim on Friday with tickets to see Tom Jones that evening, so it's been a full and busy weekend.

Next week the last copy of Scrap 365 magazine goes on sale, it's always sad to see a crafting magazine stop being produced. I have a layout in this last issue, here is a little sneak peek! I will show it to you as soon as I am allowed, it's got lots of fabric on it!!!!!!!!

Well that's about it from me this week, if you would like to visit other crafty desks, just click on the link marked stamping ground on the right hand side of my blog a bit further down and Julia will explain all about this desk hopping stuff.

Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment I will try and return all visits ASAP
