What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 87
I did specifically place the roses in the shot (photographer speak!!) so that, after last week, you can see the results so far from the Crafty Notions mould, me, and Fimo. And it's a boost too, because I know what I'm going to use them for now, so baby steps and three weeks, maybe a result! Colour me red and surprised, the rest looks a bit valentine-y, but that actually, wasn't the intention at all. It must be subliminal! The terracotta dish on the glass mat is only about an inch deep and had some water in it whilst I fiddled about with stamping onto wet watercolour paper. That was yesterday and the water's dried up.....so has the idea. The BG pad is a small one that I've had for a while and decided that it won't scare me if I look at it for a long time. I shall in theory, get sick of it and use it! Check back with me about this theory. And here's a close up of the roses so far.........because I thought a two photo desk would be a delight this dull dark Wednesday early morning!

The roses are what you were baking last week? I like them and yep, they look Valentiney to me! I am trying to get over the 'save new papers' thing and make something within a week or two... because there will always be more new papers!! ;)

ReplyDeleteYour desk looks awesome very valentine lovey creativity. I have never made a valentine card for my partner as I've never felt it was good enough. Think I might have a go this year. Those roses are fantastic, your so creative.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in this look at the paper until you're bored with it idea, definitely want to hear how it goes.

Very cool roses. Love the heart on the card.
ReplyDeleteLovely roses, looking forward to what you use them for. I also have a problem with using new papers, hence the 8 boxes full of papers, which my husband is demanding that I start using up now! K x
ReplyDeleteOh those roses are lovely Julia - I'll look forward to seeing what you will use them for.
ReplyDeleteI've added my desk photo and some craft room news to my blog today
Love the roses and that heart on the card is fab. I think you're right about this Valentine thing - not really my thing but so far I've made a couple of 'soppy' cards fit for the occasion. Sorry I'm late this week but I'll try to do better next week :)Elizabeth x #96

ReplyDeleteMorning, Julia, lovely rosy space today - I'm off to do chores and then I'll be back to check out another 100 desks or so.
ReplyDeleteHi, beautiful roses and I love the heart, is it stamped on or die cut out? A very productive and under control desk this week LOL
ReplyDeleteRach xx

I am late again this week! Love the roses, not read all the comments so if you have said where you got the mould from sorry I am asking again! Did that make sense?
ReplyDeleteThank you for bearing with me....
Cathx in not so sunny and warm Cyprus.
The roses came out great!! I love the colors and the detail is spot on!!
ReplyDeleteoh I love the roses :) Not having much patience these days so I have been staying away from anything paper related :)
ReplyDeleteNeat-o roses! Love your theory about the BG pad... I might have to put that in practice if it works. Ha!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Susan #114
If I could pick any ONE thing that was everywhere @ CHA, twas flowers. I think your roses are spot on. And clearly you didn't have valentine's on the brain ;) A dozen roses please Mr. D?
ReplyDeleteHi all - newbie here - love 'rummaging' in other peoples desks

Beautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteI love those roses. They are so Valentiney but also Summery at the same time. We need to think about Summer to get us out of this rain. :-)
ReplyDeletelovely Flowers.
ReplyDelete#132
I've always thought of Fimo as being a great big faff, but those roses are jolly nice.
ReplyDeleteRight then missus, my atg & tape runners. OK, I admit it, I'm possibly still in the transitional period and not quite there with the big pink beast! I use the ATG for larger pieces but can never be that accurate with it so use the runners for smaller bits. I promise I will try harder, honest!!
ooh, nice roses. I have fimo but never know what to do with it, using moulds are a great idea.thanks
ReplyDeletekyla
Wow your roses have come out really well! I look forward to seeing what you do with them next! Have a good week! Tracey x
ReplyDeleteI almost forgot that it was Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteSo cold my brain is freezing! I am making jewelry. Take a peek.
Howdy and happy WOYWW,
ReplyDeleteNice desk! Pretty roses. Thanks for sharing. Also, I accidentally posted to last week's woyww...oops.
Would love for you to stop by my blog when you have a moment or 2.
Peace,

I havent done this challenge in a while because of a family loss, but I decided to dive back in today. I'm loving all the entries as usual!
ReplyDeletevery cool roses...and such a nice clean desk
ReplyDeleteNice roses! I like playing with polymer clay too. Did a workshop with Laurie Mika last year. Have you seen her work?
ReplyDeleteI hope I'm not too late...with the storm our dial-up was worse than usual..none of the links showed up! I love your roses, and I'll have to try your paper pad theory, as getting sick of it will be the only way I can break the hording hold!
ReplyDeleteAs I was reading your post, my brain was going to fast to register what I was reading and at first I thought you had made the roses from terracotta and I kept wondering, "How did she do that?". Silly me, after re-reading more slowly I realized they were made using a mold and Fimo. They did turn out very lovely! TFS, ~Shari #103
ReplyDeleteLooks like Valentine's Day is coming soon?! Gorgeous roses! Di x
ReplyDeleteNice on Doctor mama :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog this week and for the lovely message. I was convinced I had already left a message here, but I cannot find it. Brain failure again! This roses are really pretty and I cannot wait to see how you are going to use them.
ReplyDeletemy sister Patsy put me on mr linky and i forgot i hadn't dropped by this week. glad i did and saw how your fimo project turned out. i can imagine them on a valentine collage! they look great!
ReplyDeletesorry julia, just had to comment about this....i have been blog hoppin since wednesday...as you do. Anyway, I was just leaving a comment on Katie's blog and the word verification chose 'SUCKEDIN' as the word. I'm sorry but i thought that was soooooo appropriate. I am completely addicted to your wednesday bloghop. even when i dont participate I am always visiting everyone else's desk.
ReplyDeletethanks for the inspiration and the most enjoyable blog hop I've found yet
