Someday, the altered art you make today will be
old, faded, falling apart, and someone else will salvage the bits and use them
in new altered art.It's the best that any piece of art can hope for

Wednesday 21 April 2010

Well its a mixture of....

WOMWT and WOMWW...

Finally finally I got a chance yesterday to unpack my Ally Pally Bags that were on my desk last Wednesday. We had a few days away in the lovely city of York last weekend and with that, and the school holidays I haven't been anywhere near my craft room, never mind playing in there!
It seems so long since AP, that even I had forgotten exactly what I bought, so it was like Christmas when I unpacked the bags!

So the desk was exactly as last weeks post...
But then I tidied....


Then I unpacked my bags


Lovely coloured UTEE and I just love these leaves....  use them sparingly throughout the year then stock up at Ally Pally








These stamps from the Artistic Stamper were the only things (along with Meadow Lush Cosmic Shimmer) on my shopping list - !!! Some great little charms as well (they weren't on my list)

Some goodies from Sir Tim and more Eco paints... I just love these, and need some in every colour!

Bargain collage stamps! 5 for a tenner!

Luscious coloured Ten second studio metal!










And thats about it..  but ................


then I messed it up again, and this is how it is today!



All these lovely new goodies came into my craft room and my mojo went out of the craft room......
Got to get some inspiration to do something though, because I have to make a present for a very important person who has a rather significant birthday coming up very soon... gulp its not happening!

  6. Well I was lovely the calm tidiness of the first desk, making me feel all soothed and happy. Then the second desk with the Ally Pally stash sent my blood pressure up ... but I did have a lovely rummage around the things you bought!! Would love to understand what you were making with the melt pot thingy.

  13. How come your desk looks as interesting tidy as it does in use?! Your purchases are fab, scare me to death every last one of them! And don't stress about the big importnat gift card thingy - once you've had a chance to play and get hunkered in, it'll happen without you knowing. Really.!

  14. I love all the goodies the stamps the most that look great fun so you should get som inspiration from them or look through some magazines you may see something to set you off. Think about York and all those streets cobbles etc (I love York too) something will come to mind and failing that look at all the desks something on there for every one lol

    Love Dawn xx

  15. Ooh look at all of that stash! I wouldn't know what to do with half of it, but you certainly scored a bargain with those collage stamps. Oh, and that ping last week couldn't possibly have been my bra strap, I'm such a liberated crafter that I never wear one! Hope MY Mojo returns, he sure as hell isn't with me!

    Hugs

  21. Those collage stamps were a great buy and I love the others you bought ...is that a 'Sequin waste' stamp I see.

    Seeing what you do with your melting pot really makes me want one ....or will it just sit in a corner if I give in and buy one.????
