The weeks are flying by and it's Wednesday again! Time for another WOYWW and one closer to the latest anniversary.. Check the info at Julia's
i made some more atcs for swapping but I should probably keep them a bit secret...
i did get one made from start to.... well nearly finish, it needs a greeting yet)
it was time to dig out a very old wooden stamp for the focal image.and is by Stampington
then I took some Paperartsy stamps by Seth Apter that I hadn't used since I bought them a few weeks ago and covered a sheet of paper in a pink Versafine Clair ink... next stage is still in my head!!
Saturday was of course, Kew day.. and as you may have seen the "colour matching Helen's new haircut to blossom" game
is't this a beautiful colour!!
we've had a stressful couple of days at work with IT issues following an unknown-to-us move by BT to switch us from one server to another.... cue no phones, internet.... yikes!
Spent Tuesday hotspotting off my mobile data to get access to the systems.... does nothing for my data allowance
I was late leaving the office on Tuesday as our IT support firm were attempting to log in remotely to do something or other to get my mobile to recognise the work phone system... as the office phones (and internet) burst back into life!
So hopefully I will be able to visit you at lunchtime to check out your desks!
Happy WOYWW and down with technology problems.

Always a pain when IT doesn't work. We have email problems at work too as the addresses are all changing. Love the card. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #4
For a minute I thought you had gone bright pink. Phew!
Such a pain when the internet does not behave itself, makes one realise how much we rely on technology these days. Hope it gets sorted good and proper.
Hugs, Neet 5 xx
Loving the fresh greens on your ATC Helen. I'm much the same with the use of the bin, find if I'm not happy with it keeping it just messes with my mojo.
Much improvement Monday, but can we keep the momentum going for a few more weeks?

Hi Helen i'm sure whatever is in your head will pop out soon. Can't wait to see what it ends up as. Wishing you a very happy woyww, Angela x6x
That green on your card really makes pop I love it. The photo of you beneath the blossom made me chuckle - looks like a gorgeous fascinator! x x Jo
Oh BT are a bit of a nightmare aren't they. We've recently upgraded to fibre broadband but not without huge problems at the ordering stage and loads of engineers before, during and even after it was all done!!! Nextdoor was getting theirs done too plus her daughter aswell who ended up with her phone number being changed unawares and when they found out and asked to have it put back to the original, got a bill for £500! Hope yours it sorted soon. Love the hair and blossom matching, think I will be looking out for some purple blossom now, might have to wait for lilac - LOL. Love the card and thanks for getting me inspired to do my ATCs by reminding me. Hugs BJ#9

LOVE that pic of you and the blossom, you’re channeling your inner Carmen Miranda I think! What a pain about BT and the phone/internet nonsense, honestly they’re a nightmare at times, hope all is back to normal now!
Hugs LLJ 3 xx
Oh I'm so thrilled I am retired. Don't think I could handle the working world anymore. I'll call it an AGE thing !!! I love the flowers you have shared. We don't even have leaf's back on the trees yet. Quite the storm going on, even the cat is sitting close by in amazement. Have a fun week HAPPY WOYWW
Sounds like a stressful time at work. Work, stress - what do I know? Love that last photo looks like you’ve gone all Carmen Miranda. Have a good week, love n hugs Cindyxx
Just love your crown of flowers!!
I haven't started on my ATCs as yet . . .
No intwernet!! oh! no! Couldn't exist without mine, had to do what I use to tell my colleagues when I was Technical Manager . . switch it off, count to ten and switch it back on . . . this morning so I am ok now but did have few frightening seconds!! Glad I'm not at your work place.
Enjoy your week

You look lovely with your crown of flowers. The Office must have been a nightmare for you, glad they got it fixed. Happy WOYWW. Angela #16
Happy WOYWW. Hope all the server stuff is sorted out now. What would we do without the internet? I would have to go and get a 'proper job'! Ali x #18
Really BT should be required to warn users when they do that sort of thing, because you just know if they don’t, it won’t be seamless and un-noticeable. Must have been a suddenly quite stressful situation, can’t imagine being without phone and email, it’s always one or the other now! Loving the talk of wood mounted Stampington, long time no see! It’s a lovely image, likely the recipient won’t know about it, but ah, what a great back story to the card! (Bringing out my stamp nerd!!)
Ah the joys of IT. I have to always go back the the advice from Roy and Moss "Have you tried turning off and on again? Is it plugged in...?" LOL! I am perhaps going to bin something I have been workng on too. I mean, how long do you keep trying to salvage something before you just heave it across the room?>? At least Kew is lovely - and look at you with flowers in your hair, kinda... Happy WOYWW (back to being late- ARRGGH!)

Good morning, Helen.
Don't those companies understand how important a connection is to our daily visits! Glad everything is back in working order. Love those blossoms and they do pair well with the hair. ;-)
Creative Blessings! ~Kelly
