So, if it has to be Wednesday, what better way to spend it than at Julia's Stamping Ground for another desk-hop-fest. And (I know, don't start a sentence with 'and') here's my desk... well, floor, but you know me by now! You also know me well enough, to expect new stash purchases.... never one to disappoint -
the other items in the box, are some EZ mount for some unmounted stamps which I now have no excuse to getting mounted... and another Colour Bloom spray called Storm Cloud which is a kind of grey (storm!) coloured. The 'Stick It' is a thin sheet of adhesive for sticking to card/paper etc before die cutting intricate shapes, and enables you to stick the resulting die cuts easily to your project... time will tell how well it works I'm thinking letters, and things like Tim Holtz Greenery dies, will be perfectly easy now....
The next picture is for Julia. Last week she commented on some words on a journal page and said she hoped they were word stamps, not individual funky letters. (I'd have had no chance of lining them up, you are right Julia!!)
They come in a chain, joined, but designed to cut apart. Oh, and the journal pages underneath? that's some of the new sprays,and some brushos... bit dark and muddy, so needs attention!
So, that's what's on MY workdesk, what's on yours? I'll be round to check soon.

YUM! I love the page you have started. So much texture and colour going on there. Great stamps too. #3
That adhesive sheet sounds like a good idea Helen. I decided to use my ivy die for some cards and its so fiddly to stick down. Those Clarity word chains are right at the top of my wish list!
Have a happy week

Hi, Thank you for stopping by earlier (you were the first!)
Those word chains are amazing! Wow! What a find! I also like the sound of that Stick it product. I'd heard of it before but have not been able to source it here (Spain).
Have a great week,
Lisca#24
Oh, what interesting items you have!
Can't wait to see how all of them work for you! Thanks for the peek! #57

thanks for visiting
Happy WOYWW. Love the colours on your journal pages. Ali x #56
Hey Helen, thanks for the visit earlier.I love the new journal page. Your desk is a hive of activity. Cx #19
Like the page and the word chains and lots of great stuff to play with there. Happy WOYWW Anne x #32
I do like those word chain stamps, not sure I'd cut them apart though. I'm sure you'll turn the journal page round, you always do! Even if you say you don't like them I invariably do!! I've posted up a pic of the Toyota volunteers to my blog now. I've also heard only good things about the Stick It adhesive, I know a couple of bloggers who are using it.
Hugs

I really love those gorgeous bright colours. I'll have to look for one of those word chains, they are great. Lovin your fabulous journal page.
Have a great week playing with those goodies.

Great stash, and I love the page with the letters laid on top. Beautiful! Thanks for your nice comment, and I'm glad you like my album pages. So far I'm keeping pretty well!
Happy WOYWW,

Always lots to see on your 'desk', Helen. Hmm, color bloom sparks? How do you like them? Thanks for the earlier visit! Hugs and Happy WOYWW! Nan G #53
Yep - I totally LOVE Stick it for letters but it is super useful for lots of things - the adhesive holds gilding flakes or glitter or embossing powder really well and as it;a double sided you can cut, peel, stick, peel and cover with whatever so easily.
Late again - darn that Blogger!
Happy happy WOYWW!

Well I can't have a dig this week, I have bought so much lately and not had a chance to play with any of it. Good to see you getting inky and painty. And waddya mean its December on Monday?!*!!£$%?? Cindy #49
Lovely stash & looks like your journal page will very colourful ! Thanks for visiting ! Ali #22
Hello Helen,
Oh, I can't believe it's going to be December on Monday either! Really?!? The older I get the faster time goes by.
Nice new purchases on your desk. The sprays look great on that journal page. Very cool words too. Are they rub-ons?
I've had my Thanksgiving meal so it was a perfect time to visit desks - either that or take a nap!!
Thank you for visiting me already! Happy belated WOYWW
Hugs,

Hi H I'm back again for a proper look around.... Some interesting stuff. Do tell how the stick it works out although I'm thinking it could be expensive to use all the time. I'm hopefully getting some brusho paints for christmas. Oh yes it is December next week I'd better get a wiggle on
Janet
Those Clarity Word Chains look like an excellent thing... since I'm going backwards I've already seen how fabulous the finished page is!!
Alison xx
OMGosh I love that journal spread you have going there. Even worse is now I am going to have to find those word stamps... I firmly believe one can never have to many word stamps... and then there is the not having to line up letters thing that accompanies them! LOL!
Hugs,
