I'm down to one post a week now ..... too much to do.
This week i am going to my nephew's wedding and left the card making to the last minute as the wedding is on Thursday. I spent a long time designing and eventually making a fascinator to wear (not finished yet I still have some colouring to do !!! ). I will post another day if it works out
On my desk is the last card I am just finishing (well, I have to make dinner sometime! and a girls gotta eat).
This is the first card I made .... for the grungy monday challenge studiol3. which is all about masks and Tim Holtz wonderful masking techniques see here timholtz.com.
I quite liked the look of this card, the heart is the mask. The heart stamp is from Papermania.
I like the way it seems to 'pop' off the card, however I dont think the colouring is quite right for a wedding card so this fitted with the Mojo Monthly idea of changing faces.... ie using the same stamps for different styles. my-mojo-monthly-november-changing-faces.
This is the 2nd card.... much simpler. I simply embossed 2 hearts with copper powder, cut 1 out and then layered it on top of the 2nd. I embossed the initials with the same colour and added the ribbon.
This is a tag I made a while ago ( another grungy monday piece I think), but it is using the same stamp and looks completely different.
This is the last card I made. The heart is embossed in red.
I didn't intend to make it into a Christmas card .... it just happened, just by adding the appropriate ribbon and some green brads. I think I might give it to my handyman, it is quite lovey dovey !!!
This card is also suitable for the stampman challenge of collage the stampman challenges.
I just have sometime to look at your desks now Happy peeping on WOYWW .

My you have been busy! That is a lovely heart stamp. I love all the different ways you've used it.
Cor you have been busy! Lovely cards, and great use of the heart stamp.
YOu have definately been busy! It is ok to go down to one post a week. I find myself doing the same when things get hectic. Love all the cards and embossing work. It is awesome when a good versitile stamp peeks your intrerest. You will be able to break this one out for St. Patrick's Day for 4 leaf clovers! Thanks for sharing your WOYWW!- Amanda
I especially love the first card, I think it's the colour choice. Happy WOYWW from #1
I think I read somewhere that regular posting is important so I always figure once a week is good and then it always seems to fall on WOYWW. The only thing that bothers me then is that you end up with a mega long post for the poor people just popping in to see desks (but then how else do you target a large audience!) You certainly spent lots of productive time with your heart stamp so a wedding card should be a doddle - reminds me I have a memory box to do for the one I am going to a week on Saturday......
Hi there. Thanks for sharing your creative space with us this week. I hope the rest of the week goes well and creative too! Your cards are lovely.

Great Car, you have been busy happy woyww, trace no 20 x
Such great cards and that tag is just lovely! Enjoy the wedding! Have a great week!
It's amazing the way the heart stamp looks completely different when you use varying colours. That's getting good value from the one stamp, that is!!
Hugs, LLJ #42 xx
Gorgeous projects, love that tag! Thanks for the peek and sharing. Hope you are having a wonderful WOYWW.

These are great pieces and fab examples of different looks. That's a great stamp and so versatile. Love that embossed heart and the glossy detail and the blue muted one too. All great designs and ideas! Thanks so much for sharing with My Mojo Monthly. sarah
No problems about using the desk tidy - go for it!! I fill the bean bag with dried split peas only, but you could put wadding in and double it up as a pin cushion! Have fun :) xx
You've been busy - love it all! Hope the fascinator works out OK - look forward to seeing it (Hazel WOYWW #89) x
