There's a lot of the regular GKW/stuff and a whole lot of nothing go on. Gentle desker, I haven't made a single Christmas card. I don't even know if I can legitimately add 'yet' to that sentence. Mojo is missing. At this rate I'll have forgotten how to stamp! The cute Christmas stickers are waiting; I thought they would make fun seals for envelopes so there's a demonstration of intent! You can just see at left, the strings of some Kraft tags that I stamped and decorated in January. Tags are so useful and yet are overlooked in this house, so I made a few. Glad I did, because early wrapping and despatching has occurred. You can also see a background stamp , I had an idea that it would make a nice light plaid background for some of my Christmas images. Since it arrived I haven't tried it, but it's ready and probably more willing than I! It will be lovely to catch up with you, I've no doubt that you will be jaw droppingly busy and inspiring. A second picture by way of wanting to share some loveliness....I know it's meant really to accent other flowers, but I love Gypsophilia and this bunch of coloured blooms makes me think of cherry blossom every time I look at it.
I was trying out Portrait Lighting on my phone which is why the kitchen worktop looks so moody!

Good to see you but not so good to hear mojo has gone off piste!
Your 'desk of good intentions' is looking good and I am intrigued by the carton/tumbler on the left which has something on top of it. It's the thing on top that has been curious.
Love the gyps.

Lovely thoughts about the gypsophilia- I can only remember it being one of my mum's least favourite flowers! I am very behind with all Christmas preparations - where has this year gone? Happy WOYWW! Susan #7
Hi Julia , good to see you . I love the gyps, so pretty. I may have prepped some cards but no gifts bought except one. Happy woyww, Helen #2
Just buy some cards, the world will still keep turning….no point in forcing yourself to create something when your heart’s not in it. I do really adore that Gyp (as my dear old Ma used to call it) and the Portrait Lighting is fab, reminds me of the Georgina Hughes photos we have in the house - moody and gorgeous 🥰 Bit like me?? Don’t answer that…..

Good to see you joining in the fun this week. I agree with Jan...just go out and buy some cards...life is for living :-)

That photo of the Gyp is lovely. It looks like a still life painting. I'm with Jan on the C cards. Don't stress about it. Buy some and then you can look forward to s bit of crafting of your choice when mojo returns. Max came today to say she needs 24 workshop packs for next Thursday so that will keep me out of mischief for a couple of days..😀x x Jo 🌈
I agree with Jan, support a local artist or a charity and buy some cards. The gypsophilia is beautiful and very well lit.
Take care and happy WOYWW
