WOYWW #191

Hellooooo there peeps.
I trust that this little missive finds you all well and ready to trundle around the world staring avidly at what everyone is sharing workdesk wise this week. For all the details do pop on over to Julia at Stamping Ground for all the details  HERE

So what is going on in my little world....? Quite a lot actually, but it's all behind the scenes and under wraps at the mo.  So, my desk looks like this at the moment, Alcohol inks on the right, my bookmark from Shaz above that, just the usual comforting clutter of creative busyness really

And just to tease you, the first look at my new masks, they'll be launched at Stitches in February so not long now. ( There are 6 by the way all nicely layered up so you can't see them properly.)
 Just to prove I'm not totally miserable, here is one of them for those of you who didn't see yesterdays post.
I've used this on a journal page already and am really pleased with it, I'll show you later, it's raining and I'm warm and dry here in the house.

 Still hanging around my desk are some of the gelli plate trials...
What you can't see, however is all the stuff I've had to hide from view, everything is happening at the moment  and I'm knee deep is chaos at the moment trying to get things done that I will be able to finally share in the next few weeks. Until then, roam the world and have a good time.
