WOYWW


It's Wednesday, so it must be WOYWW. I missed last week's because I was busy at work and my weekend was busy too, meaning I've not had any crafting time for almost two weeks! So I made up for it on Monday and this is my desk on that day. There's the usual clutter including ink pads and scissors but there's a stapler there too. I was using it on my scrapbook layout. I always worry about using staples. Aren't we supposed to use acid-free and lignin-free blah blah? How safe are staples? I have no idea and that's what worries me. My layout could be ruined in a few months' time by rust!
Anyway, on the sofa next to my space you can see my Purple Cow paper cutter, more scissors and a box of chipboard shapes. I spent ages sticking chipboard letters to patterned paper, cutting them out, sanding and inking the edges, only to decide they didn't look right on the page and shoved them back in the box! 
You may also have spotted the colourful mess on the sofa. It's my beautiful ribbons.



I am really ashamed of this. Somewhere under there is a plastic box that usually keeps the ribbons tidy  together. But I was trying to find lengths of cord for my project and had to pull everything out to unravel them from the rest! There's a message there somewhere ...... but I'm studiously ignoring it.
If you'd like to join in the WOYWW fun, hop over to Madame Julia's Chateau (she's not really French as far as I know) to meet everyone taking part and leave a link to your workdesk photo.
