What's on your workspace Wednesday Blog

Welcome to my very small work space. After moving into our flat in December it only took 4 months to convince hubby to make the second bedroom into a craft space for me. In a rush to get things set up I got the best desk I could afford at the time. Unfortunately it is a bit small and there is no space for crafty friends!
Any way here it is.




As you can see I was in the middle of a scrapbook layout, to the back is my iPad with an inspirational scrap lift. I always keep my iPad handy when crafting for ideas and blog posts.
To the left hand side are all my handy tools glues, scissors and trusty kitchen roll.
To the front are my new Tim Holtz stamps which I was considering using on my layout
And here is the finished product




Thanks for stopping by and looking at my desk x

I added glossy accents, twine, buttons and mesh

It's five o'clock somewhere

In Florida we spent a lot of time at Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville. We loved the cocktails, the food, the music and chilling outside on these cool chairs!




I've used a free 6x6 paper pack for my patterned paper and made my own clock too.

Croptastic day

The bears over at House of bears Blog invited me to have a crafting day with them.

They provided a kit, a sketch and the following rules.

* Repeat stamping on layout
* distressing
* document something mad
* journal on tags

Here is the sketch I was given




And here is my layout









I'm actually quite surprised I stuck very close to the sketch I usually use it as a guide but go way off into my own little world!

I also managed to get another layout done







Overall a great day, thanks bears!!

Beautiful Orlando

My most recent layout using the June kit from Papermaze. I really loved this kit and am now coming towards the end of supplies. Lucky thing I ordered the July one to keep me busy






Just noticed a tiny bit of red in the first picture, this is the backing from double sided sticky tape and not actually part of the layout!

Playing with Dylusions inks

I recently got a couple of Dylusions spray inks to play with.


Here is the completed tag I have made, I'm now extremely tempted to complete my set of inks! Off to persuade hubby that it would be a good investment :)




p.s does anyone have an idea how to remove ink from grubby paws, I have washed them three times so far and I'm still covered!

Make it vintage - scrapology challenge

I decided to take part in scrapology latest challenge - make it vintage link can be found here


Here is my attempt




I stamped the water can image, coloured with spectrum noir pens and then distressed with good old distress ink. Background paper was sent to me with one of my recent orders (lovely freebie). To finish I added a few flowers and a happy birthday sentiment.

Csi challenge #27

I loved the colours in this weeks challenge



I thought they would go perfectly with my picture taken at Santa Monica beach, California

Here is my layout and a few close ups











Evidence used trees, flowers and grass. I made the palm tree myself using corrugated card and distress inks.

Testimony - a picture of the outdoors and arched title.
