WOYWW 253 - the post Paris edition..

Bonjour, mes amies - and Happy Wednesday to you all  Welcome to another WOYWW hosted by the lovely Julia... 

Well, Paris was fantastic, and the Version Scrap show, whilst small, was fabulous... check the post here for details of the show and here for the start of my adventure on my "photosbyh" blog - I'm splitting the posts into small (but loads of photos) chunks and haven't finished yet! I reckon there will be 5 in all by the time I've finished... three so far.

And yes I bought a few goodies (you can see them all in the Version Scrap post linked above but as you can see from this photo (taking lolling on the sofa last night) I haven't had time to put it all away yet...!


I'll leave it at that for today, hope to make more of your desks this week, although as I'm behind on challenges and off to Ally Pally Stamp and Scrapbooking show on Saturday I can't promise!! If you're going, hope to see you there.

Ooerr Missus, your kneeling space is well delineated in this pic! I like this less concentrated shot - Ilike the partially coloured artwork on the top in front of you, and those dropper bottles of bright inks..yummy.

Neet said...

One of these days I will get to Ally Pally (and hopefully bring Jo(zart).
Wow Paris, what can i say? Am off to your other blog for a real blow by blow journey. Roll on the next two instalments.
Hugs, Neet xx

{sigh} I know it will be dangerous to click that link but I can't help it! Glad you had fun in Paris. Maybe the trick is I should meet you for a shopping trip...haunt your every step, buy what you buy.... DOH! Looking forward to seeing you at the crop...Yes? I can't keep it straight who is coming and who has already said they aren't!

Happy WOYWW!

Carmen said...

Isn't that strange. I thought the Ally Pally show had been and gone. Not sure why! I look forward to seeing your goodies from that. We'll hopefully be at the September one. x

Twiglet said...

You are certainly going to be a busy litle crafter with all your new goodies and more outings. Glad you enjoyed Paris. x Jo

Hi Helen, looks like you got some choice goodies there. The organising was a must- got fed up with lifting out every bottle, the one you want is always the last one you pick up!I'm sure they could put little colour coded stickers on the lids for us, lol. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #44 xx

Kyla said...

You have so many wonderful goodies. I would love to spend a day crafting in your space. I LOVE that alphabet set and the honeycomb stamp that is peeking out. Lots of great supplies.
Thanks for the peek. Kyla#32

Paris, my very favourite city, you lucky girl. I hope you got time to wander round the city and a chance to taste the wonderful chocolate eclairs and coffee ones. Now I am seriously hungry just thinking about them. Thank you for your visit this week. In some ways, it seems that it happened years ago, in others it is just as if it were yesterday. It was good to have so much going on, so that, although it was mentioned in a very natural way, I did not have time to dwell on it, especially as I was driving at the actual time so my mind was fully occupied. Have a great week. xx Maggie #30

Donna Wheat said...
