Can you believe another week has gone by? It's scary that christmas will be here in just 41 sleeps! I have the Iphone app and my daughter has to look at it everyday since I had it.
Anyway what has been happening on my desk this week? Well to be honest not an awful lot unfortunatly, life has kind of got in the way of crafting at the moment.
I have finished the Minnie invites:
So these have been taking over the table at the moment, I have also made some smaller versions to tie around a gift bag with a minnie cupcake in to go with the party bags. All of these still have to be made up but hoping to get a chance over the weekend to make the paper things up and then the cakes next Saturday before the party.
The sewing machine has been redundent this week too I just haven't had chance to get up there and use it but need too am so behind with things its scary.
Anyway I am off to have a snoop around some other desks at the Stamping Ground, hope you all have a lovely WOYWW.

Well I have had to borrow a printer but its working and I have been able to print out the invites for Poppy's birthday. They are now all complete and just need putting in envelopes and addressing. A job for in the morning so that I can take a picture for you as the lighting is rubbish at the moment and add it to the blog.
Now to focus on some of the other things and plan the making of the cake (s) for her birthday, so much to do and only 3 weeks to do it in, am so behind!
Thank you for popping in.

Well this week has been manic with trying to get as many projects finished as I can, time just doesn't seem to be on my side at the moment and nothing seems to be getting closer to being finished ...argh!!
Anyway those that visit my blog will know I am working both upstairs on my main crafty desk - not as big as it normally is but were decorating and I have had to squeeze into a corner of the bedroom - and have migrated to the dining room table too.
So downstairs on the table is:
My Minnie Mouse birthday party invitations for Poppy's 3rd birthday at the end of the month, they would be finished but I cannot get the printer to print the wording without smudges down it so am more then a little frustrated with my printer at the moment.
I draw a template using two used ribbon reels, one slightly bigger then the other onto an empty cereal packet and then used blackberry swirl bazzill for the head shape.
The wording is meant to be on the white, I did a test print and it worked fine apart from the smudging down one side so I had a play with the printer and now it won't print them at all so am very frustrated. Will get there in the end. The pink bows are all tied and ready to go.
As requested last week to show you a picture of my normal crafting space, well here it is:
This is my desk with the sewing machine on, you can see the pile of cushions and things that are waiting to get through, but I have been asked to make some more so I have to get a move on and find some extra time somewhere to get them done as running out.
This is the stack of really useful boxes right next to my desk which are full of papers, and scraps of material in others. My sewing box is on the top - space is very limited and some of the finished cushions piled up ready for wrapping and giving away.
You can just catch of glimpse of my rolling tote next to the boxes, this si full of all sorts of things, I really need to sort it out and get it tidied there is so much in there which I havent gotten out in months so it needs a clear out.
Anyway those are my workdesk's this wednesday, I am now off for a peek around everyone elses at the stamping ground.
Thank you for popping in to checkout my desk.
Happy WOYWW
