Hello again, everyone! Hope you all had a good week. Here we are again, all round Julia's for another 'snoop' round desks/tables/whatever vaguely flat surface you can find to craft at.
There isn't too much new happening here, so no drawers or heaps of stash to show. I've been busy making (tags again, mainly) challenge entries. (am loving Simon Says Stamp and Show!) For once, no new stash purchases at all. (Got to save up for Ally Pally at the end of September! (plus Worthing if I can fit it in.. and I haven't used all the Stevenage stash yet!)
I've also been making a wedding card for a friend at work who is getting married soon in Italy. It's still a work in progress but here's some sneaks! Love this Judikins stamp!
I wanted to put their initals round a heart - ideally twisted through a heart - but do you think I could find an outline heart stamp? No, course not.... Have I got a heart die? No, nor could I find a grunge one (apart from a very small, solid one)
So at the moment I am using the Tim heart cut out and 'filled' with glossy accents and some glitter chucked in (it's still drying.....) I'll blog the finished card when it is, erm, finished, funnily enough!!
If you don't know what this WOYWW is all about (and if not, WHERE have you been?) check out Julia's blog for all the info and links to the desks of the world. Have a great week, everyone.

Loving that stamp - very elegant ;)
Loving that heart - one I don't have, so it must go on the shopping list. I love stamps where you can cut up the image and make so many useful bits from it. The heart, the banner, filling the surround with other things... so many possibilities :)

The card looks gorgeous so far hun. Look forward to seeing you at Ally Pally (I may go to the Craft Barn extravaganza in a couple of weeks, you going there?)
That is a great stamp & lovely colours for a wedding card.
So thoughtful of you to do a handmade card! Really liking the stamps and the soft background:)
Very elegant card, beautiful! I'm kinda missin' the stash pics.... sniff, sniff........
Lovely stamp - theres a lot of work going into this card!
You mean to tell me you've got loads of stamps and not an outline heart? Tsk tsk - better put one on your shopping list, lol! Card looking lovely, tho!
This is going to be a lovely card, bet it will be one of their favorites.
That's wonderful, making a one of a kind card for a friend! I'm sure she'll appreciate it no end! Patsy from

What a lovely card. Thanks for stopping by my blog. XXX
I bet the finished card is looking good by now!!!
What a fab image for a wedding card I love it. Love your background colour too and your idea around the heart. Why is it never simple to creat though, it is in your head but not when you come to create it LOL. Tracy Evans x
I'd love to see the photo of your finished card, the work in progress is looking good so far.
Gorgeous card so far. Looking forward to seeing the finished card. Thanks for popping by me. Kathleen x
Very pretty card, Timixx

Hi Helen, I'm so late (midnight here)and I haven't even downloaded my photo, so I'll save it for next week and just go round commenting this week. Liking the look of that card, look forward to seeing the finished creation.
hugs Heather xx
They say necessity is the mother of invention. I say necessity can mother someone else; I want an easy life!
But from what you've shown us it's going to be an amazing card, well worth the effort!
Thanks for sharing.
I'm a bit late getting started on my trip around the desks this week. This looks fab, I'm sure your friend will be thrilled.

Can I just say first of all - no you may not say yuck - you may say yum! ;)
Love the look of the card on the go. I bet this heart will turn out brilliantly even if not quite how you pictured in your head :)
I love the image of the bride and groom. Good luck finishing the heart!
