Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #887

Here is my workdesk:

At the front you can see a number of cards in progress. The seahorse is a Lavinia stamp.

On the desk easel you can see a journal page using an image from Michelle Grant in 2022. I actually made this page in March 2024.

This image has been provided for a Kickstart Challenge in Michelle's Facebook Group.

I have used this image in a few ways over the years.

Using image transfer:

Using two versions of the image:

Seen through printed vellum:

The other journal page at the top of the easel is a page I made for Conjurer of Dreams this month:

My next long challenge, ICAD, has started. I started taking part in this is 2021. This photo show my last five years.

This is this year - the first month's themes and the themes for the whole 9 weeks.

I have done the first two days, following the prompts but not the theme. I wonder if you can see what I have used?

Lovely to see all your blogs on WOYWW... I hope to get round to everyone this week. However we were away last weekend and will be this one too - makes it difficult to get online!

I started with a white card blank, matted it with lilac and then the patterned paper cut into 4 and embossed.

I added the sentiment die cut in purple and matted on lilac.
