But I just got those down to tease you!
There is new,new stuff to share - the set of stamps and the box of tissue wrap that I just got . Can't wait to play with these... and the flowers on the mat are for a journal challenge that Darcy, stamp designer for Paperartsy, is running - we're up to month 4 and I am running out of time to finish this month's page... and should have been working on tonight (Tuesday, as I write) but of course I didn't!
This is what it is going to be based on...and this is as far as it's got !!
I have to say though, I love the square page format of this journal.
Sorry I didn't get to visit many desks last week, not quite sure where the time went!
Anyhow, I'll catch as many of you as I can this week, have a great WOYWW .
Can't wait to meet everyone at the Crop. after a lot of concentration this week, I have nearly finished my ATCs. Now I need to decide what to bring with me and make sure I am packed in good time to get there. Hope you get all yours done and dusted, and look forward to meeting upi there. xx Maggie
ReplyDeleteLaughed and laughed at your desk comment.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing that Darcy inspired project. A square journal! Never seen one before. It looks interesting.
Getting an early start while you (and Julia) sleep, so no number yet.
Your space looks wonderful and I enjoy crafting on the floor too but I'm also happy to have my desk again and now that there is a carpet on the floor I'm trying to keep clean I try to be good and not spill ... Much :)

Hi Helen
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while I know, since I last managed to link up but I'm back now and just popping my head round the door to say hello!
You can never have enough journals in my opinion and I love the tissue wrap. It is very handy.
Thanks for sharing your creative space and I hope you have a good week too.
Neil
NOPE! No such thing as enough journals, stamps, inks, paints, markers, pencils........well you get the drift.....LOL
ReplyDeleteI am down to one new 9 x 12 journal and a new 5 x7 journal, have two going now and am starting to panic. grin
Have a grea week

It's always SO MUCH FUN to play with new craft goodies!! And I LOVE the colors you're using on your art journal pages! Purples and blues are always my favorites!
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW!

Can't wait to see what you do with that page - it's looking fabulous!
ReplyDeleteReally looking forward to the drop too! And will see you there. Love that stamp set, looks really useful. I will NOT BUY MORE STAMPS til I make myself use all the ones I DO have more often. But every week I am very, very tempted. {sigh}
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW!

That tissue paper is on my wish list, though I just blew the next few months budget on 9 tim stencils, 3 distress glitters, black Studio 940 texture paste and tims long shears...the tissue paper will have to wait! #28
ReplyDeleteI have just come from Lunch Lady Jan's and I'm sure she is using up all our spare time cos she gets so much done in a week!!! Good luck with finishing those ATCs...hope I get to swap again this year.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

What the heck is tissue wrap?? Honestly, I swear that I'm getting the hang of your Stamper's Lingo and then you drop another weird product into the conversation...LOL!!
ReplyDeleteJulia's got a thing about notebooks too, so you're in good company :-)
Hugs, LLJ 22 xx
I have three journals on the go (I think) but one is for art journalling, one for chalk experiments and I cannot remember what the third is but I know where it is. Then I have some blanks. Sounds as if we are similar.
ReplyDeleteYou have just beaten me on the atc's - I intend to start today, or maybe tomorrow. Hope it is today.
Hugs, Neet 13 xx
Hi Helen,
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by! Love the roll of tissue paper. Pretty sure I have a similar one here too :)
The reason I only took a very neat small box of suppplies away was because I visited a friend who has EVERYTHING :) :) When I go there I need to take very little :)
Have a good week,

I like the square page too - I think it's somehow less obviously 'book-ish'. Does that even make sense!! You seem very busy..am hoping the ATCs aren't causing you to feel pressure. Maybe it's because you have so much stash to choose from you don't quite know what to choose.......
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear/see you have at last started your ATC's. Yes definitely enough journals at the ready I think, you best make a mental note of this fact so you aren't tempted to get anymore!! Thanks for your visit BJ#39
ReplyDeleteThe tissue paper is a new one for me. I will have to check it out for sure. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGlenda #58
I love having a good old nose at all your stash....it's like finding wheres Wally!!! I didn't realise that tissue paper came in such a huge roll!

Hi Helen - a lovely busy desk, blank journals, lots of new toys - what more could a crafty girl ask for?! Have a lovely week, Chris # 23
ReplyDeleteSo much fun stuff on your desk! Looks great! Happy WOYWW!
ReplyDeleteCarol N #77
Never know when you will need to start a new journal !
ReplyDeleteOr what size is required so you need to keep a few in ready! Thanks for the visit already

It appears that you are quite successful at journals so of course you need several. Thanks for the snoop. Be well Carole #44
ReplyDeleteAs usual, you have so many lovely things going on! I am glad you are the bendy type - now that I've injured my back I could never make it down to the floor (for now at least). Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #68
ReplyDeletegreat colours on your jouranl page and I dont think ivE ever seen a square on either..Ilike it.as for the number of journals you can never have enough of anything.. stamps love ace thanks for visiting and have a good week.good luck with the ATCs Andrea #11
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you manage, my knees wouldn't take it I'm afraid. Lots of crafty fun goes on just the same!
ReplyDeletethanks for popping in and yes! we all had a great time together, Dolores, Donna and our fellas too.

great pages, lovely use of colour.
ReplyDeleteHi H
ReplyDeleteone day you will amaze us and get a desk to show. love the look of the stamps. that's a first that I beat in linking up, I'm a bit gutted that I cannot go to crop.... but hey ho weddings eh!
janet #5
My goodness, you're busy, Helen! I hope you have a great time at the crop! Julie Ann xxx
ReplyDeleteYour desk looks really busy, I imagine you stood with a camera in one hand and your ink blender in the other.
ReplyDeleteHappy crafting, Angela x 50
Yep! I think you have enough books to keep you going for a wee while anyway. I like the look of the stamp set you have there and tissue paper ... I've seen it mentioned quite a lot recently so it will be interesting to see what you do with it. Have a great week, Elizabeth x #78
ReplyDeleteWhere would a desk go, even if you did want one?? You can never have enough journals and your pages are looking great! I need to get started on ATCs yesterday, oops! Have a great week, Helen! Thanks for stopping by to see me and FS! Hugs, Darnell #24
ReplyDeleteNice to see you so busy and having fun. I was thinking that if you pile up those journals and through a cloth over them you'd have your desk!! Lol, yeah, a divorce does kinda put a damper on things!

Your background looks fabulous Helen, hoping to have a go at Darcy's page this week.
ReplyDeleteJust bought Ellen's new stamps too!
YOu always seem to be coming up with some fantastic journal stuff, honestly I don't know where the time goes either. Now I am going to have to come back to see what you do with the rest of the page, but hey you know I will be back anyway regardless. Have a great crafting week.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW
Hugs Eliza & Yoda 90
Love your pages you started! I think I need to have an extra journal ready to go just in case I get a creative spurt! lol Started on my ATCs too! Thanks for the visit!
ReplyDeletedonna#83
I love all your journals & that page for Darcy's challenge looks great. I've got stuck with mine.....
ReplyDeleteHi Helen,
ReplyDeleteI looked at the photo and immediately noticed all the journals! WOW. I must admit, I'm the same way. I have several pads of watercolor paper, one for mixed media, etc.... I love the white page though. I just need to breakdown and get inky!
Happy belated WOYWW
Peace, Kay (35)
Hi Helen, I am so running late this week. Still have to get to my ATC's- Can I start panicking now,do you think? Indeed, with all the hassle with the courier company, I had visions of them calling just after we left, and leaving the boxes by the door! Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #29 xx
ReplyDeleteLoving the colours on your pages... I got myself a square journal too - love the shape. Good luck getting done with your Darcy piece, and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteAlison xx
Lots on your desk love the colours on your pages happy WOYWW - Nicky #30
