What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 92

It's a bit of a mess, but my defence is that from this view, it's just showing that I'm actually doing some card making! The little blue lidded box that seems to feature quite a lot on my desk is one of about 4 containing either brads or eyelets. I was trying to find some nice brads to match this card but failed; honestly, you can own 8 million of anything and still not have the right one!
From this angle, you can see that I have an overflowing scraps box again. I will be doing something about this. Just as soon as I get motivated. Stamps to be cleaned are overflowing from the basket, and there's a workshop to kit up, so that will be seen to later today. If you're in the Northern hemisphere, isn't it great that the nights and mornings are a bit lighter!

Now then, record numbers last week - took me till yesterday to see them all, but what a grand trip! So do it again why don't you - upload to your blog and leave a link here - a picture of what you're currently up to and how your desk is coping.
And whilst you're hopping, consider a trip to Sisters Crafty Creations, Wipso and Twiglet are busy filling their shelves with pieces useful for crafters, some fab ideas from readers have been turned into reality - and they're having a large give away....go see.

    How productive your desk is today! I think I have some teeny weeny brads just the right colour!! Two very different angles - two very different impressions of how busy you are!! Have a great day.

    It's true...when there is more in the scrap box that on the desk we need to do some thinking...Mine is full of my experiments, not-quites and what would that look like? Can't throw them away... they get filed under the get round to that some day - along with the ribbon tidying. Looking busy and recognising some PA stamps... Have a good week.

    Would love to have your window. Your not alone on having lots but never the perfect one.Goes for the blending of papers also. I have a project planned for grandkids, their next overnight stay..sorting buttons by color even if they only get 1/2 done it would help. Off for some great fun. Enjoy

    Oh, and how about changing your brads to suit your card yourself? Acrylic paint, alcohol inks, even EP and glitter.... Failing that, find a large hole punch, and cut your own card candy!

    Had to laugh I have enough bits to open a mini shop but never have quite the right thing. The nights getting lighter are great and have resulted in me spending a little more time crafting. As for scraps used to keep them - realised I never ever used them so now they go straight in the bin

    hmm it is indeed true that it is nice to have daylight at the beginning of the day, and that it is finally still light in the afternoons, but of course it means there are no shadows on our desks in which the sins may be hidden, I just took photo's of my work desk and I hang my head in shame - it is wonder I can find anything let alone a matching brad...and since i have shoes on the table, I shall have bad luck forever....

    I'm so glad to see that I'm not the only one with an overflowing scrapbox (although mine is hidden from view today) - how come it's always bulging when I'm always using scraps - it might be because I like cutting into new papers too. Isn't it always the way that you can't find the right colour brad when you need it - can you use a copic or some alcohol ink to colour a plain one? x

    Hi there. Your comment about matching brads goes for sewing, patchwork and handbags in my house! I too have alot of scraps. Two boxes in fact. However, I am sometimes able to make whole layouts (bar the cardstock) with just scraps and that is sooo satisfying! They come in handy for punching butterflies too! My excuse and you are most welcome to use it!!

    Desk looks fab - did you know that you can paint brads, ink them with the same colour ink to match your card and then if necessary dip them in embossing powder and heat to set the ink(make sure you hold the brad in a peg and not your fingers though!) - then you get perfect matching brads for every project!

    Well another WOYWW and I just can't wait to see what you all have been up to today.
    I have been having loads of Nanny cuddles and kisses and just chilling with my Gorgeous Granddaughter.
    Just off to Make a card for my next Challenge and then going to go blog hopping.
    Hope you have all had a great WOYWW and look forward to seeing you all next week
    Kaz.

    I'm embarrased to show my work space this week. It even makes yours look tidy Julia!!
    I quite agree... how ever much we have we never have the right shade or colour. A good excuse to buy even more!
    And it IS wonderful to see the day light gradually increase. The weather here has been chilly but with beautiful blue skies, daffodils are popping up and Spring is in the air. Lovely!

    That's a very busy-looking desk! :) And I like the look of some of those stamps in the foreground...

    P.S. Wow... I think your scraps box may actually beat mine! I didn't think that was possible! :lol:

    What a difference the angle makes... top view you look busy but side view you look really really busy, you have a lot going on. Hopefully you'll come across that perfect brad color. :)
    Have a great week.

    Julia, I did get the best of Mr. Linkey....finally. You were a dear to help me! Once you took me by the hand and said "Ok, Glenda, you can do this" and with just the right bit of instruction, a light went on in my head and I had an ahha moment. Finally figured it out! Thanks so much for your help!

    Well done on the record numbers last week Julia, it just goes to show how a few friends checking out what each other is up to each week can snowball into such a phenomenon.

    Love the spring colours you’re working with and as for the brads, I always have white ones to hand and my Promarkers for a prefect match every time. Works well with card candy too!

    Happy Crafting!

    Hi Julia, thank you so much for your support and your lovely comments. Our latest grandaughter, Rosie, finally arrived this morning, so I have been busy finishing off the card ready for our first visit. I did not make it to many desks last week and I am not sure how many I will manage this week, with all that is going on. I hope you found the right brads. I have just finished my stock of the ones I want, but I cannot remember where I got them from.

    Hi Julia, I can't count the number of times I have bought something even though I already had it, just because I couldn't find it! No more! Silver looks good with blue if you can't find the right blue.
