I am more pleased with them now than I was at the beginning. They are now all coloured and complete. I made one of the large ones into a card which has now been sent off - photos next time. I am now back on the Celtic knots with another batch. Very relaxing and therapeutic to do on the recliner! With this lot, I didn't make the mistake of making it impossible to lift the colour off where I wanted, and the result is a lot better. I love using the computer and/or iPad and Apple Pencil for creative work, and also my cutting machine, of course, which is connected to my iMac in the studio. It's all grist to the mill!<br /><br />I hope you are continuing to survive the lockdown.<br /><br />Shoshi #17Shoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-22147264154308886992020-04-09T07:43:29.406+01:002020-04-09T07:43:29.406+01:00Hi Julia

Inability to decide on direction of creation often the culprit .. looking at your flamingo die made think how sometimes thendie looks nicer that the die cut! When I visited my friend in Florida. I remember being told by store lady that flamingoes weren’t found in Qld only in captivity, which I thought so sad! Keep on snippet busting!<br />Thanks for being a blessing, and may God bless you too, this Easter, especially in these troubled times, may we look up in faith! Praying you’re all kept well too!<br />Hugs, Shaz in Oz.x 😊 #23 I think <br /><br /><a href="https://wonderfulwordsoflifebyshazinoz.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><b>{Wonderful Words of Life - Shaz in Oz}</b></a><br /><a href="http://calligraphycards-shazinoz.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"><b>{Calligraphy Cards - Shaz in Oz}</b></a><br />Shaz in Oz.CalligraphyCardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18050100007497130952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-28070508165389851492020-04-08T21:29:02.687+01:002020-04-08T21:29:02.687+01:00I have been trying off and on all day to get on yo...I have been trying off and on all day to get on your site. I ended up using my daughter’s internet. Then my son suggested I work off my mobile phone and bingo it works!

My craft room is currently taken over by boxes, packing tape, printed out labels etc. Once I have commented on a few blogs, then I must get it all sorted and get my clear tables back. I struggle with clutter even more nowadays. Hope you are enjoying this sunshine.

It's great to get card toppers done, and then when your mojo has a break you can make them into full cards! I know what you mean about the snarky stamps, I didn't buy them because although funny, I would never want to insult anyone like that! But they would go well with the cat stamps...! Have a great week, play hard and stay safe!

I think that they tend to end up on things that get hauled to the school to be sold or donated as I think other people find it easier to give them out if they are really out there with what they say. I do have a circle of friends that like things like that but, I think I tend to send more serious and or nature type things that I mail out for me. ~Stacy #30Stacy Sheldonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196238552931006068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-61953785001677202092020-04-08T14:51:52.087+01:002020-04-08T14:51:52.087+01:00Good morning!

So after making breakfast for everyone, I waltz over to my computer to gloat at my post and what did I find? Nothing. Just last week's post. In my process of making the time conversions, I was off by an hour! One day I will get it right. <br />It's a cloudy raining day today but I am not complaining because my grass and plants need the water. Yesterday was glorious so I don't mind sharing a day on and off with rain. Your desk looks like lots happening. I could open a museum of UFOs in my craft room. I am not proud of it but I get the mood and then something distracts me. :) I am glad you are well. We are hanging in there. I am definitely stressing about the unknown but trying to balance it with gratitude. Sending you a big hug across the pond.<br />Belinda #29Belindahttp://www.belindascrafts.com/whats-on-your-workdesk-wednesday-566/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-74982376815389313712020-04-08T13:14:59.110+01:002020-04-08T13:14:59.110+01:00Hi Julia, your desk does look a hive of activity. ...Hi Julia, your desk does look a hive of activity. I have to keep on top of mine, particularly at the moment, since I'm down to one area. I love the idea of the snarky comments, but I would be stuck as to when to use them. A lot would be inappropriate- or I could maybe use them for journaling (which I don't do - yet!!). I'm pretty good at using things as I make them, hence leaving my works of art out on my desk, so my next crafty session will be turning them into cards. I do have a tiny UFO box - mainly things that I was working on before grandchildren arrive for a sleepover and I have to pack them away ... and they never get finished as you say. Have a lovely week and stay safe, hugs Heather xx #27Heather Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01597453713838254105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-46197778751280682892020-04-08T12:11:53.641+01:002020-04-08T12:11:53.641+01:00Hello there Julia, at least this situation has mad...Hello there Julia, at least this situation has made me carve out a bit of time for WOYWW - though everything else seems to be one step forward two back. I am trying the one touch method - if I pick something up I have to finish it or file (bin) it. I'm drowning on bits and bobs I've set aside to 'do' something with. Don't think Lockdown will be long enough....

We all have so many scraps we could put to good use it's probably one of the most satisfying things I do at present. <br />I agree about those snarky stickers, it maybe my British upper lip that makes me think twice about using some of them.. <br />Take care & thanks for keeping us regimented!!

I hate the way that something when you start it is full of excitement and creativity, and finishing it turns into a chore! I can also identify fully with the balancing act. I am definitely not the tidiest of workers and my studio (and the kitchen when I’m up to my ears in food pep) is usually a mess!<br /><br />Keep safe and well, and happy WOYWW,<br />Shoshi #17Shoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-85629532882459713442020-04-08T09:31:42.759+01:002020-04-08T09:31:42.759+01:00Wow I am impressed at your intentions.
