I bet your bottom dollar he doesn't do as he is told!
I bet he has looked inside his 'card' - bad boy!
Some of my lovely regular visitors to my blog will remember that I like to use blocks of wood in my work - for this card I used the wood from a wooden stamp that I unmounted - clever idea eh?? Its not my idea it was in this months Craft Stamper mag - finally I will be persuaded to remove my stamps from the wood - I find this as hard to to as some people find chopping up books hard - silly really because I hardly ever use my wooden stamps because they are stored in boxes and its a pain to get them out
Anyway back to my desk this week, It is actually a bit (in the loosest sense of the word) tidier, what you can see is a green bag which is filled with goodies from The Craft Barn which I visited last weekend. I went down to see the Bessie as it was her birthday and we decided to go to Sheffield Park Gardens in Sussex - well you go past The Craft Barn and it would be extremely rude not to call in don't you think??
Here is a quick snap of a swing to the left in my room... you need lots of interesting stuff like this when you do courses with Mr Skinner..!!

Yes, you can't go by the Craft Barn and not call in - are you going to the Extravaganza next month? I haven't been to Sheffield Park Gardens for years (since I don't have a car) but I bet it wass beautiful. Love the birthday card! helen, 4
ReplyDeleteI love the card. And what a great way to use the wood blocks. I love Sheffield park. Just about looking its best I should think with all the rhododendrons coming into flower.
ReplyDeleteHow are you getting on with the work shop? I am yet to start it as need to finish some other projects. There just is not enough time.
Happy 59 birthday to Ian! Wonderful card!

Is he 59 by any chance? lol. Mr Skinner is one seriously talented guy, I so envy you taking his classes but I dare not venture into any other side of crafting until I have mastered the side I am in! Great card.

What a clever card! How could he resist the temptation to take a peeksie inside? Your desk looks tidy to me! Happy WOYWW! By the sounds of this Craft Barn, me thinks those of us across the pond could use such a store. Warmly, Tracy #88
ReplyDeleteThat card is so great! And made with a wood mount you say? That's a great use of a wood mount! Yep, no way the birthday boy or anyone else could resist the temptation to look inside. I'm glad you stopped by the Craft Barn. It would have been rude not to.
