Welcome again to WOYWW - aren't Wednesdays great now! I hope you all had a great week and thank you for all your kind comments - I love them! Remember to visit Julia for all the info about WOYWW.
This week - I made a start on the Christmas cards and after just one I got bored! In theory this card making is good but I should really admit that I'm a definite scrapbooking girl. I'm hoping to go back to the crimbo production line but I fear I could talk myself out of it! I did manage to photograph the desk mid-production line before I cleared it all away and started on a layout!
Have a good week everyone :-)
oh! you mentioned Christmas!! eek.. love your desk :))
ReplyDeleteI always make my Christmas cards but I really have to be in the mood! September is too early for me.... Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a card maker, either. I just can't get into it. What amazed me when I first came to your blog today was the infusion of color outside your window. Those oranges and yellows really set the stage for fall, which is probably in the air where you are. I really love the view from your windows and would never leave if I had that view. Happy WOYWW.
ReplyDeleteThey are looking like great cards xx Hugs Tina xx
ReplyDeleteOOOOO ... could you make mine too please????
ReplyDeleteChristmas cards in September! You go! I can't seem to get started until November. Then, it's too late.
ReplyDeleteI love the view from your window.
oh fab desk,i cant get started on my xmas cards yet,I always leave it far too late,hugs cheryl xxxx
ReplyDeleteIt's far too early for me to get in the mood for christmas cards yet too.

Lovely busy desk. Thanks for the snoop round.
ReplyDeleteMorning Christine, Love your christmas card, have to get my crimbo head on to start as it seems every desk has one or two on them. Love your flower shape holder where did you get it from, its different from the ones I've seen. Thannks for the snoop. Have a lovely day, big hugs JO.xxx
ReplyDeleteoh there is Ages Yet for the 'c' thing - and maybe if we ignore it it will go away? for a little while? until say - December?

Have you tried making cards like you do a scrapbook? Only more tiny....
ReplyDelete...maybe you'd find that easier?
LOL I went the other way and my scrap pages look like cards :)

Christmas is coming - and I need to get cracking on my cards thanks for inspiring me to even think about it loveing your space and thanks for sharing ;o)
ReplyDeleteAs a cardmaker first and foremost, I have to say that production lines suck (and I've done too many sets of wedding stationery for my own sanity!) but if you head over to somewhere like Sketch Saturday, it may help with the inspiration and make you think of a card more in the terms of a mini LO.... TFS!
ReplyDeleteWell i salute you for your achievement, thats one more than i've done lol, but least you made a start, i'm pretending its not happening lol
ReplyDeleteMorning, well done you! I have made several, but really need to stop playing at it and get on with them, lol!
ReplyDeleteYep as above, I suggest getting some sketches from some of the challenge blogs, they always inspire me, good luck! hugs Heidi xx
Theres nothing better than a busy desk

Hi Christine
ReplyDeletelovely creative desk, i have made a few Christmas cards now, hate doing them come the silly season, don't normally bother making many. I am enjoying doing my scrapbook at the mo,happy WOYWW, sue,x
I am a scrapbooker first but I absolutely love making cards too, in fact, cardmaking seems to be taking over at the moment!
ReplyDeleteLove all the flowers outside your window :)
Hi
ReplyDeleteI would not worry about the Christmas cards, my advice would be to just get on with what you love best. Anyway, what ever you decide to do, just have fun.
Take care
Sue xx
Beautiful card babe, I get bored doing xmas cards, so I tackle them early and get them out the way :)
ReplyDelete*hugs* Heather x
Hi, well done you, Christmas never seems to be at the right time for me, I'm sure they move it around:), love your desk, great view of your pretty flowers too:) xx
ReplyDeleteEeee, Christmas... seeing as you is starting early.. I guess that you will have free time.. which means you could always fill it making mine for me ROFL X
ReplyDeleteLove the view from your window-good job I face the wall -I'd never get anything done if I had a view like that. So your DS has started sixth form-wait until he has nearly as much grey hair as you(if you have any). Blink and you will be even more amazed at how quickly it flies by. Hugs BettyXXX
ReplyDeleteomg I ADORE your desk! sooooooooo pretty!
ReplyDeleteLooking Good Christine! Fabulous view you have there too!
ReplyDeleteGreat first day back pic below!! I think Wipso and I need to create a Christmas shelf in our blog shop - its just a bit early to be thinking of Christmas for me!!

At least you made an effort..I've a big christmas order from a friend so I'm trying to get myself in the right frame of mind before I start hers !! What a beautiful view from your window...all those lovely colours no wonder you can't get into the Chrismtas spirit when it still looks like summer in your garden!!
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW...Esther xx
Great creative desk there - I have started some Christmas cards too although mine are to teach at workshops so I need them done early! I also tried to start some as early as January so I have a pile of about 10 done but its hard now when the sun is shining isnt it! have fun scrapping instead and buy some is my advice!
ReplyDeletewow, look at those beautiful flowers in your garden! love it!
ReplyDeleteLoved seeing your space....really creative
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to sit and craft in front of that beautiful garden! yay for you!
ReplyDeleteI can never get started on Christmas cards until the month of. Good for you for getting a head start.
