WOYWW # 344

Happy Wednesday Ladies, I know its been forever since I had time to sit here and actually load the photos I took of my desk ( I took photos... and that is as far as I got) If your wondering why this is happening you can check our hostess Julia's blog here for all the details of how to play a long. ( shoot a shot of your desk and link it up) PS any photo on this blog you can click on them to enlarge and hit your browser back button to get back here again.

 Saturday the inspiration challenge went to a etsy store of watercolor paintings and the samples Lydia made she used wide frog tape and masked the designs into diecut leaves... so, I have this roll of delicate frog tape and I had not opened it but, we went into home depot after breakfast and picked up the only roll our store had on the shelf which is a little wider ( the green one on the bottom) so, after these photos were shot. I did try masking some die cut shapes. ( tried the heart from the lil inkers pile below) and I ended up tossing the card front and cutting hearts from the whole thing when it was dry because I messed up the sentiment. ( and mine the watercolors leaked through the edges of the tape too) so, this is going to be an ongoing thing until I "get it"
 Had happy mail on monday night and hauled it up the stairs on tuesday before I started playing. ( which is what these shots are. ( an "almost" clean desk) to see how much I really had to pick up after my self you will have to scroll to the bottom to see the week before..

 the pile on the paper cutter.

What my desk looked like last week... so, you can see the struggle to clean up was real.
anyways, hope you are all doing well and off to see what you have been up to.

Needless to say, you cracked me up with your description of the frog tape Stacy, and my eyes went very wide when I saw your happy mail! Seems you are on a roll. I want to thank you for giving me the information on WOYWW - I have SO ENJOYED all of it, and I do look forward to it. The ladies are wonderful and I love seeing everything. So thank you ...

Love how you have all your adhesives handy! I am glad you showed two photos of your desk, because in the first one it was so neat! The second one looks more realistic. LOL
Nice to see you. This is first time I have been here since middle of December. I guess we have all been busy. #58

I have never heard of frog tape before - and now I am quite intrigued :) I am very sure you will 'get it' very soon, but remember - there is no such thing as a mistake in crafting - just creative opportunities :)
Have a wonderful Wednesday and the rest of the week,

I've not heard of frog tape before so quite intrigued. You certainly did have a load of happy mail you lucky girl. I can't see your desk staying tidy for long with all that to play with! Love all your cups. Have a very happy 2016. Barbx #28

I like that multilevel organizer thing you have on your desk. It appears to hold a lot of important stuff! Lots of great stuff on your desk as usual.

I love your teacup card. It looks like something that would be perfect for my mum
