WOYWW #715

               WOYWW

How can it be Wednesday again? Thank you to all of you who commented on my blog last week - hope I get round to more of you this week!

 Anyway I am linking to the Stamping Ground!

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 #715

I am a little late posting today as I have started going to an early evening Aquarobics class which clashes with when Julia posts...
This is my desk today:



I have been making a little knitted bear. 

On my table there is a new teacup stencil which is on my 'to do' list. There are also some cut out flowers - the smaller ones were printed upon one of my Gelli pulls. I used some of these on this journal page:


To finish here is tonight's sunset -




Wishing you a happy week...

Happy  WOYWW!

Outlawz No stamp Challenge

 This is my next post for the Outlawz new

 No Stamp Challenge 

which will start on the 15th of each month. Find more details here

Our challenge theme this month is Love is in the Air!

This is my card:


The pink paper is from Gecko Galz, and the black die cut made using a Kokorosa die.


I added some penwork and some gem hearts.


The heart at the bottom right is embossed with 'love you' - another Kokorosa die.


Thanks for playing along and we can't wait to see what you create!


Happy Crafting!
