What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? 99

Well folks, as this is the last one in April (already), it means that that 104, the second anniversary week isn't too far way now. So if you plan to join us for the PiF (detailed here), you need to get your thinking cap on now.
And here's my desk...replete with box of chipboard under a tidy tray, balanced on a notebook.
A basket of dragons that DD hasn't got around to putting on ebay yet, so I've done it, a card in the making, my glasses of course...a couple of them sexy new lie flat EK punches....a new BIGGER button jar. Nothing of any great interest. Unless you want me to riddle up an excuse for having boxes balanced on notebooks etc....then I'll need some time!

Show us your desk and work in progress then, we're wanna see what you're working on and what you've got that we haven't! Try to keep your words short, then we can visit lots of desks. Put a photo on your blog, link it here and visit to your art's content. I thank you. We all thank you.

    Beats me how so many people hover over their mouses (mice) at 6 am uk time, lol! Like the look of the basket of dragons... I haven't heard of lie flat punches. Is that a shopping trip calling?! Have a great day Julia.

    Another very bus desk this week, I'm missing mine, not home this week (but only another four days to go)I have a pink glitter/embossing tray thingy, can never get all the stuff back into the jar, as it sticks to it. but because of this there's always enough stuff stuck to it to do another three or more cards...sort of magic! Hope you had a great Easter, happy WOYWW...

    Hi Julia
    Love the super creative desk you have this week. That card also looks quite interesting under it all. I have balancing issues at times, especially when it all ends up on the floor...hence the need for a clean-up on my desk this week.
