WOYWW 128

"...wwWWWWHHHOOOOOSSSSHHhhh..."

Did you see that?
THAT was another week rushing by :)
Oh, yes... it's time to join Julia at the Stamping Ground, and her band of  Merry 'Makers' across the globe for

My desk today is just a mess... I'm working on the "Autumn Swirls" album (still), and haven't cleaned or tidied my craftroom (still), let alone even looked at a vacuum cleaner (still!) for over a week *lol*
See... it's all 'samey-samey' at the moment... with nothing really getting done at all. I'm still looking after CallieCat - making sure she's okay and she's having her medicines every day... though she is pretty much back to normal.  The kittens need their litter changing twice daily - at least - and fed three times daily too... it's just taking up so much time! I did manage to cover a paper leaf (centre, near the bottom of the photograph) with crackle accents... and it's taken eight hours to dry so far, with the middle being slightly tacky still. Maybe I used a bit too much? *lol* If I carry on crafting in this way, the album may well be finished in time for NEXT Autumn :D

I shall be so happy when I complete this project... the only real problem being that I am at a complete loss as to what to do next. I do have a couple of little metal wire handbags that I shall make mini albums for - but I think I need to think up a new paper crafting challenge for myself... which could take some time.

Anyhoooo...
wherever you are, whatever you're doing... and whatever and whomever you're doing it with... make sure this Wednesday is a fantastic one!
Oh, and don't forget to click on the photograph of the Christmas mini-album in the side bar (right) and add your name to the post you're sent to, for a chance to win the mini album. Tell as many people as you like about joining in - the more the merrier!

Wow - you're a full-time SAHM to all and everyone! The album is looking great - I hate waiting for drying too. Hope you can find the time and gusto to crack on with it! Thanks for sharing today, Sarah at 2.

You could come to my desk, there is always tons to do, I could do with some help! LOL! I have the opposite problem of which project to tackle next, perhaps I have too many?

Tuire Flemming said...

No wonder that not much has happened with the album - I can imagine that very much is happening with the kittens :)
And weeks really are fast nowadays!
Happy WOYWW!

Have you managed to get a fingerprint in the crackle glaze yet? LOL I always have to check if stuff is dry and then end up with a mark right where everyone can see (doh!)

There’s definitely an Autumnal feel to your desk this week, I just love all those warm colours and how fab does that doily look.
I live quite close to Epping Forest and whenever I drive through there the golden Yellow and Red tones always bring a smile to my face. Unlike the tree that outside my flat and dropping its leaves all over my front garden. If I’ve swapped up once I’ve done it a dozen times and the leaves have not all fallen yet.

Hope to come up with another interesting project soon…..I’m sure you will.

Happy Crafting!

Sorry, my week has gone so quickly that I am only catching up now! A new crafting challenge? You must have some other Christmas delight up your sleeve for us! Bet you have!

Elizabeth said...

Sounds like you have your hands full looking after the furry members of your family so no wonder you've not finished that gorgeous Autumn Swirls project. I'm sure when you do find time you'll have worked out what your next project is going to be. Elizabeth x #78

For being number 1 this week, I'm awfully late visiting. I'm so sorry I'm late, but, after a computer crash I had to stop by and get a bit of inspiration from your desk. It often takes me longer to come up with a project than it does to make it. I wish you lots of luck with it. And thanks for your sweet comment on my blog, too.
