WOYWW 153

Morning lovely Crafters and dear WOYWW friends from a very sunny Yorkshire. It'll be raining by lunchtime I know but for now it's beautiful and I'm off out to play in my garden when I've finished on here.

Here's my desk this morning. Back to the dining table. Having been full of cold for the last week I haven't done much crafting but felt like scrapping and I need lots of space to spread out.



I've been inspired by a beautiful LO in the latest issue of Scrap 365 by Felicity Wilson. I just loved the soft colours she used and thought my new Seasonal Distress inks would be perfect to create a back ground. It's very much in the planning stage and I've still got to add a title and some journalling but will do that when it rains this afternoon!!!

If you haven't shared your desk yet, then it's time you did, so pop over to see our Desk Headmistress, Julia, HERE and join in all the fun.

Right, I off into the garden, but I'll be back to check out all your lovely desks later, or as many as I can manage. I'll be away from Blogland for a few days next week so will be absent from the next roll call but I hope you won't forget me. I will need your positive vibes!!!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting.

Lovely Lisa, a really pretty background for that sweet picture, how nice to be inspired so, and then have nice new materials to play with! You are officially on my 'think hard about this person' list...hurry back!

Eliza said...

Oh that leaf die cut is to die for.... and what do you do with the fraiche, hopefully eat it, not use it in craft LOL

Thanks for visiting me, your desk looks far more interesting.

We have had the sun over the weekend, which is good. We had thought it was a myth, but our garden is still absolutely soaking wet, and the raspberries canes each have their own lake. Thank you for your visit and your kind comments this week. Hope your weather has improved. xx Maggie #77

Sandra said...

Hi Lisa,
I recognise the layout from your work in progress... that one caught my eye in 365 too. Can't wait to see the finished page.
Hugs

You have a lot on your desk (dining table) this week. I love the colours. Hope the rain held off so you could get plenty done in the garden.
Sorry I'm so late, had a huge amount of painting to do.

I hope you are feeling better and I sure would love to see some pictures of your garden! I just want to say I am sorry I didn't get around to everyone's desk last week, but between NSD and my craft fair I was a bit over whelmed! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
