Woyww......Not just on the Work Desk........

Well it's wednesday yet again time seems to fly by so quickly.That means wednesday time to travel the world of craftiness.We start from the creator herself Ms Julia's blog Well what a cold and snowy week yes still looking for my mojo under the remnants of snow lying about.Still no joy.Even with the fab news of Tims 12 Tags of 2012 starting nope nothing .i have entered the tag i made before loosing my mojo.See post below!

So no more room to push to the right or push to the left !just drop to the floor!So had this great ,fabtastico idea that was about time i sorted my craftroom out ....Yep you heard well the piccy below is where one has started to sort through the corner to the right of my desk.That was till i got this cracking alien growing out the side of my cheek...no not a zit be happy if it was ,another tooth abscess.Well gone the spring clean and i havent even started yet .But when you see the following piccies..... boy have i got along way to go.Im hoping all the stuff i forgot i had will spur my mojo back into full flow..... Ive started so i will finish hopefully by weekend.....
My desk space to the left of my desk you can see my Tim Holtz cases,cold cuppa coffeeand basically no desk to work on there is craftsheet under there somewhere...lol

Under the desk

Then i have to start on the back wall Poor old Vagabond covered up basically top of these draws dumping ground at the mo..

Bit further along the wall to the end where my carousel which is overflowing also

So as you can see i have a fair bit to tackle but i shall get there.As i can't stand the mess these elves made scandless how they come just take over.Anyways i hope your desks have more productive creations than mine today.I will get round you all hopefully after dentists but then again prob only give me anti-biotics and started taking them as had some left over .So may just give couple days till they start to work then go.Have fab wednesday.Stay safe take care.

Love n hugs

Altered Matchbox DT It's Crafting time

This week the DT members of It's Crafting Time where asked to create something using Newspaper.So i had this lovely big christmas match box i deceided to alter.I fist gave it a covering of Gesso.

Let the gesso dry naturaly,and i then added few coats of distress stains Vintage photo.

I lined the inside of the matchbox with newspaper which was also distressed.I then cut some images from the lovely Dezinaworld. I then distressd some SU white cardstock with distressinks and stamped TimHoltz sentiment with black arcvhival ink and stuck to the front of the matchbox stuck the first image onto the front and added Glossy Accesnts to his hat.For the old key i used Tim Holtz Altered Metal Alcohol inks technique

The bak i used an ideology ticket and grunge alphabet and distressed then added Glossy accents to enhance it.Added somemore ideology embellishments
This piccy below the matchbox standing up showing you the back.

Hope you like my altered matchbox which is now ready to be sent for a swap

For Your Eyes Only

Good Morning on this wet damp drizzly Norfolk!Today i have a tag to show you which i have done for Hel's Sunday Stampers which this week the theme is Eyes ,but also incorporated Simon Stamp &show challenge which this week id dong Title .My title is "For Your Eyes Only"james bond movie sung by i think Sheena Easton.

I have took the route of steampunk for my tag i have distressed the Tim holtz die cut tag with Gathered twigs and vintage photo.I have used a beautiful image from the lovely June's blog HERE.
I have added another of June's lovely images the face mask but added Tim Holtz pin so it looks like a hand mask with bow on.Added some wire netting,i have used the free stamp from a Craft Stamper mag to stamp the flower out on newspaper,cut out and added glossy accents and floral brad to centre.The Brads holding the netting are also Tim Holtz.The sentiment is computer generated.Thebow is papermania.

Hope you all have lovely day thanks so much for all the lovely comments on my altered gravy pot.Also the stamp folder i made from recycled hardboard they are much appreciated.

Have very creative day!
