Here is my workdesk:
I am trying to get this typed up quickly before I set off for Aquarobics. We have just dropped Ollie off...
On my desk you will see some dimensional dot paints - - I was using them to add bright dots to the collage above.
You will also see some tubs of very fine glitter - I don't usually 'do' glitter but this was to make a card for a swap. I followed Sam Calcott's video here So this is what my desk looked like:
I forgot to take a photo of the two cards I made before posting them but they were sparkly!
This is my week 8 of my Tiny Pieces of Art Year long challenge:
The theme this month is Still My Beating Heart.
The theme for this one is Love birds and items to use were washi tape and paper strips - I placed these as the background. I added extra lace, an image from Gecko Galz and a paper strip from Kaisercraft.
Another thing I made for a swap this week and which I also posted on the Gecko Galz Facebook Group - it used GG Alice images - is this little piece of fold out ephemera...
If you look through my February posts you will see lots of Valentines and hearts. Valentine's Day is a special day in our household as it is our wedding anniversary. And this year it was 50 years...here we are enjoying a cup of tea at our daughter's (and testing one of her cucumbers) on Saturday afternoon.
This was after we had been to a Garden Centre - we wanted to buy some special plants to mark our anniversary. There I saw this marvellous display to mark the Chinese New Year...
That's all for today...
Happy WOYWW! I will get around all of you this week... but it may be late like last week - but better late than never!!

Well congratulations to you both on your our gold wedding anniversary, what a lovely achievement. And everywhere you go, people are decorating, which is very special! I like the paint dotty things, I really like how you use everything you’ve got. That folding ephemera piece is absolutely amazing!

LOL! We didn't get married on Valentines Day but I made sure that was the date on our marriage license. Happy 50 years!! I love all the projects, as I always do, but the Alice swap item is a def. fave. Happy pre-Skating Comp WOYWW!
