Well Saturday was a lot of fun hanging out on Zoom with fellow WIYWWers, Good to see so many of you there!
Unlike a normal crop though I didn't just eat cake and had to make my own coffee! I know, shocking!
as i had to keep kneeling up to be seen!
(I'm second in on the top row)
In the afternoon I did clear a basket of "stuff" and put the computer a bit lower down, but it still wasn't very good - the lead didn't reach any further though
I got quite a few more Christmas cards made and carried on crafting before the afternoon session, when I took to my journal
I have started to receive some lovely cards so must get them on the way.
now, enabling...
the goodies that I had hoped would arrive before Saturday..
hoping to have a play with them this coming weekend..
although I have got a time slot at Kew so will be going there on Saturday morning
Right, had better stop, taken up too much of your time

So that's what it looked like. I saw one image at a time, not all of the people at once. Of course, I didn't have the right setup, either. It was good to see your face in both sessions, though. Happy WOYWW from #????
Lovely to see you Saturday, even if more often than not it wa shuts the top of your head! We were on the same screen so I didn’t even have to scroll to see you! Lovely Dina goodies, and for you are always the enabler in chief. Love the page.
Happy Woyww

You got far more done than I did on Saturday Helen lol. Love the journal page and card. Nice enabling too. Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #4
I just saw your comment about replying. On the right side you will find many names. IF the name isn't there (like in the 2nd session, Jan wasn't listed as a participant) you MUST leave the comment to everyone, which will be at the top of the list. Only a few names were listed in the second session, and I had finally figured out in the first session how to leave comments to individuals. Thought you might like to know. BTW, I was glad to see YOU (and not the top of your head) when you moved to your couch.
Sounds like you had a great zoom session or two, hope the knees recover quickly so you can enjoy Kew. What great goodies, you are going to have so much fun with those, makes me want to go get crafty but busy few days for me. Happy WoywW, love that top card btw Hugs Tracey xx
You had a different screen to me and now I see myself I realise just how important it is for me to get to the hairdressers and get mine cut.
What great Christmas cards you have made and you did such a lot in your journal. Thanks for the enabling too.
Hugs, Neet 8 xx
Happy WOYWW. If you want to use Zoom in the future more easily, you can buy a webcam/microphone fairly cheaply from Amazon, which just either sits on top of your PC screen or wherever else is more comfortable for you. I am happy to send a link. Mine gives a great picture/sound and was very easy to connect via USB. Some lovely new stash there. I am actually showing off some deliveries today! Ali x #16
It was so lovely to see so many joining in the fun on Saturday...we must do it more often. It was my first time using zoom so I was pleased with how it all worked. Hope you have a great week.
Hugs,

Lol, I haven’t quite worked out how to get cake through the Interwebs yet but I’ll give it a go for the next Zoom Crop definitely! It made me smile seeing you in various positions on the screen and I laughed out loud when you held up The Sign!! Fancy you still having it after all this time! Hope your knees have improved since Saturday, you’ve been busy crafting that’s for sure.
Hugs LLJ 10 xxx
It was lovely to see you Helen, when you finally popped up on your couch! It looks like you were very productive and I hope your knees have recovered well. I just love those butterfly stamps - have lots of fun playing with your lovely new stash,

Hi Helen, I didn't do a thing other than watch and chat, next one hopefully I'll be in my craft room, not lounging on the sofa. Doug pointed out to me we'd all have to provide our own coffee & cake,lol.Christmas cards look fab, and wow, those faces stencilled on the journal are amazing. Lots of enabling from you, love the butterfly stamps. Stay safe, have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #12. X
I must confess that I did see quite a lot of the top of your head on Saturday, but it was fun to meet up.... virtually!
Looks like you're going to have a lot of fun with those new goodies!

So, you do have a desk! It's just occupied with other stuff LOL. I think I managed to get the top of your head in one of my pictures! Loving the purple page and you've got some seriously cool stamps there! Happy #601 zsuzsa #23
Great picture of you all on Saturday, , Love the journal pages and all you new stash to play with,
Happy WOYWDW
Stay safe and well,

Hi, Helen!
Your goodies are nice! Luckily, I am "enabler-proof." Your journal page is amazing! You are going to get writer's cramp addressing all those cards.
Hugz,

Helen, it was good to see you on Saturday, even though it was mostly the top of your head!!! LOL I love that card, it is so pretty Helen!! Now on to the enabling.....uggghhh, can you stop???? As I told Zsuzsa....hello my name is Felicia and I am an ANYTHING art supply addict!!! LOL GORGEOUS stamp by Tracy Scott, but EVERYTHING on that haul is a yes and amen!!! Would love to have those Dina Wakely sprays as well!! Santa has been good to you already! LOL Best wishes to you Helen and have an AWESOME Wednesday! Felicia, #29
Lovely cards - and lovely to see you on Saturday - I look as if I was engrossed in my work in the photo!! xx Jo
It was so lovely to see you on Saturday! Love the card and the journal pages... I am trying not to look to hard at your enabling as it is all so tempting. Happy WOYWW. Take care and stay safe. With Love & God Bless, Caro xxx (#33)
Another lovely screen shot of our Zoom session, Helen. It was fun "meeting" you and I agree - impossible to have any decent conversation with all that hubbub going on with everyone talking at once! A few people did seem to manage to monopolise the chat though. I love your purple page! Just great. I'm glad you liked my name badge. It was fun to make - the first Zentangle I've done in an age!
Happy WOYWW,

Hi Helen, it was lovely to see you in Saturday - I had very little info on my tablet, but l recognised a few people from the2 crops I have attended. Aww, sorrybyour knees were hurting - I really don't know how you manage crafting on the floor! I really like the star Christmas card - I might try and batch make some similar, as I am fast running out of time. Have a great time at Kew, looking forward to the photos! Have a lovely week, and enjoy your new stash, Heather xx #17
Your screen image is what I was expecting from the last time I did a zoom, instead I had several pages with just 4 faces on - must investigate for another time! Love your card and well done for getting some done. I spent the last three days finishing and posting some cards but still have some to do! Your journal page is fabulous! As for enabling I think I'm doing fine thanks, but must say the PA stamps look great.
I'm sure you will enjoy using the scribble sticks and although I only have two colours(at present) The gloss sprays are brilliant! Hugs, Chrisx
Hi Helen, you're so right it was brilliant on Saturday and can't wait to do it again. I thought I'd never get to the posts today, three deliveries of craft stuff, one delivery of a surprise raffle prize, walking dogs, sorting mum's vaccination, trying to finish some cards and that's without the usual stuff like cooking Lol! Loving your journal pages and wishing you a lovely creative week, Angela x19x
Though I couldn't get home in time for the Zoom I have checked out profiles to learn more about other deskers. Your set up definitely looks uncomfortable! Cool card and pages! Fun goodies!
Thanks for popping by and have a great week.

Wow-you did bet a lot done on Saturday! Glad your crafting goodies arrived eventually.
Hi Helen, Ooh I love the stamps with the leaves the butterflies look very pretty too :) ~Stacy #35
It was lovely to catch up with so many on Saturday! It all worked very well.
Love all your new stuff!
Happy 601st WOYWW!
Stay Safe and Keep Well...

Looks like it was a wonderful WOYWW gathering, even if a little hard on the knees! The cards are looking lovely and the journal page is really cool. Hope you have some time to play with all those gorgeous new goodies, but most of all I hope you have some nice weather for your trip to Kew. Looking forward if not to catching up completely, at least to keeping up a bit better now I've had a bit of recovery time. Unpacking can't really happen until I have flooring down everywhere, and that's probably not until the New Year now... but have been sorting residency/ID card/health insurance stuff, so there's progress being made!

Fabulous journal pages and a good bit of enabling! Saturday was great, hope we do it again soon. Angela #25
'Twas good to see you too. Kept thinking "I've actually been at Helen's" LOL.
Loving your face page super stencil and my fav colour. Thanks for the visit BJ#21
Hi Helen, it always amazes me how you manage to craft on your knees so not too surprised you found it painful to Zoom and craft together. Wouldn't even contemplate with my knees! Your cards are beautiful and I love the shades of purple on your journal page. Enjoy playing with your new goodies - they look fab. Hope you get good weather for Saturday. Hugs, Elizabeth x #34
Sounds like you had a great time on Saturday. Love your new stash.
Stay safe
Wow, Helen! new toys! Lovely! I know you'll have fun with those! It was good to see you the Zoom meeting, we should all get together again! Sorry I'm so late this week, have a great week! Lindart #31
