WOYWW#135

Good morning folks
The first WOYWW for 2012! (Follow the link to Julia's place to get the lowdown) I don't know about you but I always seem to take a while to get back into routine after the holidays so there's not much on my desk today other than a mess! I've done some stuff but unfortunately you only see the leftovers as the finished articles are for DT projects!
Still here we go.
I told you it was not too exciting! One of the nice things I picked up from the sales after Christmas were a couple of packets of these shiny baubles
Complete with a little hanger and just the right size for crafting so I was pleased with them as they were cheap and tie in with some of the idea-ology baubles.
Then there are new stamps and chipboard keys that I have not got round to playing with yet but hope to get them inked up soon!
So there's my desk today..... ready for action again!
I hope you all have a blessed and creative time this week and that the rest of 2012 is more of the same.

Hi there!! Hope you had a fab time over Christmas! I like what you bought in the sales, especially the bling :) You'd better hide those keys from Julia, she has a bit of a thing for them!!
Happy New Year!

Ooh, I've got some of those baubles as well. Got them last year for my Christmas tree and they didn't look right so they went to the back of the drawer - now I know what I can do with them, and it involves alcohol inks. Great stamp sheet as well.

Princess Judy Palmer said...

Ooh, fun new stamps. We definitely can see actual desk this time. It looks like a fun place to play.

I too, have a hard time deciding what to do next after the holidays. Usually I putter about accomplishing nothing and then whoops, it is time to go back to work.

With only Hobbycraft to stalk my crafting sales shopping reaches a big fat zero.I did get some nice spray inks for Christmas though :) Happy New Year.

Enfys said...

Those baubles look great - you could make a chandelier! No crafty sales around here, apart from tired looking Christmas tat in Hobbycraft

You're quite a shopper you know Neil, always find some bargains. Wonder if you could colour those little baubles with inks or Copics or something? I think I'm doing some knitting because I can't decide what to do at the moment up in my room!

Looks like we are destined to be "trains in the night"!!! Glad you enjoyed Warhol... a good end to 2011 for me. I really love the de la warr building.
We visited DD and grandees in Brighton then went to her "outlaws" in Northiam near Rye and they drove us to Bexhill knowing my artistic interests. Sadly it just left them cold!
Take a peek at Jump Start (link on my post) as I'm sure it will interest you.
Best Wishes for a creative 2012!

Shoshi said...

Nice new stamps Neil! Thanks for your comment on my blog, and a happy new year to you too. Sheba, my new Black Cat Cougar, has been a bit neglected these past couple of days because too exhausted to get off my bum, so I've been doing some video creating instead!

Happy WOYWW, Shoshi

Julia Dunnit said...

Alright Neil, the baubles are delicious, but I can't make out what the round tin (?) with the yellow label is...and you know how nosey I am!!
Happy Nerw Year to you Neil, security health and peace I wish you.

Playing catch up..love the items you always have to show us. Like the new stamps, kinda springy, birds in the tall grasses. Kinda springy feeling here in the 50's and a wonderful way to start the new year..no winter in Iowa ...simply wonderful.
Enjoy.
