What’s On Your Workdesk? Wednesday #292

Hello and welcome to the very first 2015 edition of this weekly madness blog hop.

The kitchen table has been busy, since the children went back to school on Monday. Kitting for classes yesterday and today. Lots of kraft cardstock, being cut to size, which doesn’t make for a very interesting work space.

The cards went down well this morning though.

It’s a good thing my class ladies like it as much as I do.

Right, I’m off to get myself organised. I’ll be looking forward to dropping in on some of you when I get home. Head on over to Julia’s place to see who else is joining in.

These are gorgeous cards. These are the type of cards I would make if I had a die cutter. Yours are fantastic.

Happy belated New Year and happy WOYWW from #2.

Your designs are always so neat and elegant...bit like you really!! Although I'm not a Kraft lover, these are very pleasing. Isn't great when you get some space back when the kids return to school and routine?! Talking of which, Rhys now has offers from Lampeter, Winchester and Worcester, all achievable grades too :-)
Hugs, LLJ 18 xx

I am a total sucker for anything with text so as you can guess these cards totally float my boat. Fab. I admire your simple and clean style - I aspire but rarely acheive :)

Happy First WOYWW of 2015!

Oh, I like that top one with the tag of ribbon very much - such a great design that would lend itself to many different colours and shapes.

Sian said...

Lynz said...

You really do make just about the nicest cards I have ever seen. Perhaps THE nicest! Keep it up, I love the eye candy!

Alexandra MacVean said...

Love your desk and your cards are darling! Well done. Have a lovely week! :)

Lisca said...

Those cards are lovely! I love working with Kraft (and I don't do it enough really).
On my computer your cards look grey rather than Kraft colour. That grey colour works well too actually with your red (or pink) colour accent.
Have a great week,

Hi Fiona
lovely cards there .... I was tempted to put 'simple' but I know this isn't easy to achieve..... book paper is sooo popular at the moment... there was a question on DLP the other day .... someone actually aked what book paper was ... really LOL

Lovely cards, I believe our household sighed a bit in relief, when school started again and the children have something to do ( other than asking for permission to play with the computer) not that mum isn't using hours to peek at desks :) i love having the dining table as a possibility for doing things that need space but don't last too long, because it has to be empty by the next meal!

Hi Fiona,

Love the cards! You've proven that cards don't need to be totally fancy to make an impression!

I'm having a giveaway so stop by if you are interested.
Happy belated WOYWW
