WOYWW 267 -

Well once again, it's time for the weekly desk-fest that is What's on Your Workdesk? Wednesday.  Link up here and join the fun.

Not much happening on my workspace right now...

 recently I was lucky enough to be picked for a random prize, for leaving a comment on a blog post at Our Creative Corner (fab challenges!) and on Saturday this box full of goodies arrived!




Wow, just for leaving one tiny little comment - can't be bad!

A selection of stamps, ribbons, embellishments, some paper
and some fab looking things called "sew easy" - stitch piercers- several different stitch styles - sewing without a machine! Can't wait to play with these. I've never heard of these before, but they look great fun.

I had a great day out last Saturday at Hampton Court Flower Show, if you'd like to see LOTS and LOTS of photos check my other blog here!

Wow Helen! What an exciting prize haul! You'll certainly have fun with that little lot!
And yes, I do intend to use my travelling art supplies, maybe around the fire après ski :)

One day I might actually find a giveaway that I WANT and WIN it. I tend to look at the prizes and if I am not 100% sure I will use it all I comment but say leave me out of the draw. When I DO want something I never win LOL! Typical. But then you are better at finding a use for EVERYTHING than I am. I am always amazed when I see your work and think "I would have bypassed that stamp/stencil/whatever and LOOK how Helen used it!" Tee Hee WWHD? :) Congrats on the win!

Happy WOYWW!

Think I need to organise a lobby re the sell by dates - more on this later. Thanks for your comment.
Hugs, Neet xx

What a fantastic prize just for commenting! The Sew Easy has been very popular on this side of the pond but I haven't tried it yet.

Wow, Helen, what a great prize! Going to pop back and have a look at your Hampton Court pics, saw a couple on FB.My eldest son was there as well, but working- he's a TV editor, and was working on the show. Keep meaning to get to this, and really would love to go to the Chelsea Flower show as well. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #64 xx

What a lovely prize. How exciting to get that in the post. The Sew Easy tool was quite a trend in scrapbooking a while ago. Not one I succumbed to!
