What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday #611

   WOYWW                      

I don't think any of the deskers will want to say 'happy' WOYWW today.

Very sadly, Shaz lost her fight against cancer last weekend...

My thoughts are with Doug and all her family and friends.


In my post linking to the Stamping Ground I am just going to show tidy desks...

Here are my desk pictures for WOYWW 611


The second one shows my journal with a very grungy Valentine journal page. 


I am waiting to turn the page...

I would also like to share one of the window cards I have been making this week, using texture paste though a stencil and alcohol ink background behind.

    No, it is a very sad day today. I do however, love your valentine page, and the window card, like Shaz, brights light and colour to the world. Take care. Helen #2

    I guess you’re back in lockdown Susan...stay safe and don’t lick anyone. Top advice that! We are all very somber today, no doubt, but I can confidently say that Shaz would like to know that your desks, whilst tidy, are actually just poised and waiting for you! Managed to avoid references to Valentine’s Day until the day, when our daughter messaged us at lunchtime to see if we were doing anything in particular....we hadn’t even noticed! Seem to be getting used to living in lock,down. Ugh!

    A very sad day indeed, but we can continue to do craft in her memory, and you are very prepared for that.
    Thanks for sharing

    It is a sad day for sure, but knowing Shaz, even as little as I did, only thru WOYWW and a handful of crops, I know sharing beautiful art in tribute to her would have made her happy.

    Hugs to all on a sad WOYWW day.

    Yes, it’s a sad day for us all which goes to show how close we all are through WOYWW. Shaz would be saying for us all to get a grip though, she was that kind of gal. I think your grungy hearts are fan but I really love the stained glass window, great colours!

    Morning Susan. A lovely, lovely card there. Reminds me of Shaz's hair!
    You must be back in lockdown. I wish you well. We haven't come out of it yet, but are expecting to hear something soon...
    Every blessing. Take care. God bless.

    A busy desk as always and the grungy Valentine page looks very intense as though it's hiding something. A deep secret perhaps? No Happy from me this week, so...Stay Safe, keep crafting! WOYWW? 611((Lyn)) #13

    Such a sad time for us all, Susan. Our thoughts and prayers are with Doug and the family. Your Valentine page is gorgeous, as is your fabulous window page! Thank you for leaving a comment on my last week's blog post, which I'm glad you found amusing! Rainbow lorikeets are absolutely beautiful. I showed my hubby a picture and said I'd be happy for them to eat my peaches because they are so pretty, and he replied, "I wouldn't. I'd tell them to go and eat somebody else's peaches." Lol!! Hope they leave a few for you to enjoy! Such a lovely picture - peaches ripening in the sun and beautiful birds - and here we are in rather dank and damp and cold UK! Roll on he spring!

    Have a good week.

    Yes it is a sad day isn't it - I think we are all still reeling from the news. I do love your grungy Valentine pages, they are fab, and the window is gorgeous - those colours just pop behind the black window frames.
    Hope you have a good week,

    Hi Susan, it really has been a sad week, with a lot of tidying and not much crafting! Your stained glass is gorgeous, very effective. I completely forgot about Valentines Day, but so did hubby so it didn't matter! Take care, Heather xx #19

    Sad indeed but also lovely to hear such beautiful words from everyone about Shaz. Hopefully lockdown is over for you and you can get out and about past 5kms. Have a creative week as your desk looks full of potential.

    I started off okay today with the visits, walked dogs and went into the cabin and now I don't know where the time went to! Shaz will never have really left us because her blog will keep her alive for us and I can tell you it wont be the last time I pop over there for some ideas when I get stuck, God Bless her. Loving your journal pages and the card too. Have a lovely creative woyww, Angela,x18x
