Happy Desk Peeking day to play along or see more check out 

our hostess Miss Julia's Blog here.

 So the image on the far right was colored with just the two distress markers and I added a white gel pen over the top later this was done messing around for the Valentines challenge that started last thursday. this is a friday evening shot. the rest of the blooms were colored at work on friday ( there was a whole lot of hurry up and wait going on)

 On Monday I had happy mail from Simon Says Stamp, I did order two of the AI storage tins and one is completely full and one is mostly full ( no duplicates) I moved all the duplicate colors to the closet and I think there are "new" colors out now that I dont have so there is room for them. The adhesive in the back is supposed to be perfect for vellum ( I have not tried that yet) I did get a SSS stamp set and a card wrap die and 4 of the newest Oxides. ( pink, burgundy and two more greens)

On Tuesday at work there was more hurry up and wait and I have you know maybe 40 pencils there a mixed bag of things so, coloring is like having my own little limited supply challenge.
The rose was stamped with either Distress antique linen or SSS beige ( a long time ago) so I was working on a no line look with pencils.

 My desk this morning. after the nice clean shot of the new things they were all opened and I mostly cut the card wrap die a few times. I do have wax paper in it and I also am using a metal shim to get the cuts, It is going back and forth through my big shot at least 4 times, because I keep turning the die to get the center to cut. ( do you know what I mean so the die feeds into the rollers a different angle each time.) So, I have not take this to work and tried it in a cuttlebug. (but, I think it would be difficult to get a wrap card in that machine because you don't have the landscape of a big cut pad to turn it horizontal. The one video I seen of it being cut was done by Jennifer McGuire and she had run it through an electronic machine. (a small one and it cut for her with one pass like that)

 So a few cards were finished and a few pieces are waiting,

 first card (closed)

 First card open that sentiment is from the SSS stamp set that was in mondays happy mail its called.
Best ever. The background is alcohol inks on Yupo.
Closed this card is 4 1/4" square so the inside card is 4" square.

 The second trial this one is closed with a vellum belly band that hugs die is from Papertrey Ink.

The inside sentiment on this one is from Impression Obsession. so, that is what I have been up to. no new lambs yet but, the other ewe is looking closer. Thanks for stopping by.
