I'm once again joining a bevy of other Deskers showing off their messes, projects, or maybe even new toys or techniques. All this is under the watchful guidance of our beloved Julia at Stamping Ground. Just click on her name and you'll be magically taken to her site.
After spending an entire month linking to "Art Every Day Month" (AEDM), I was ready to get serious about Christmas. I even got out a Christmas rocking horse.
On my very 
I realize the reason some of you dropped by was to see the latest rocking horse, so here's another one, this time in a frame.
Now it's time to get to work, or Christmas is going to pass me by.If you're playing in WOYWW with Julia, please leave your number. I fear I'll never reciprocate if I have to spend time looking for you.
So much fun seeing all Our wonderful messes turning into artwork.If I don't talk to You again before Christmas.Let Me just give You a: Merry Christmas.Blessings I pray for You.Denise
ReplyDeleteHello Elizabeth!!! My desk is a total meltdown right now. I said I was going to clean it today but that didn't happen :) and I haven't even thought about decorating yet... do you think anyone will notice if I don't ?
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth, thank you for starting your cards, you were starting to worry even me. Love the pink paint on the paper, I will have to watch this space and spy on what you are up to.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW & Happy Crafting

Love the framed rocking horse! Cool looking stamps you've got out to play with. Love your carefree way of painting papers! I too will keep eye out to see what becomes of them. :) My houses took turn and are now headed in a totally different direction. Had to completely change how they will be displayed. Maybe next week they'll be done. Thanks for the earlier visit! WOYWW hugs! Nan G #13
ReplyDeleteYour pile of paper looks great, have fun making it up into cards. it's good to see you back "desking" again! Helen, 37
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!! This is a real crafters desk..LOL Adorable framed rocking horse.
ReplyDeleteKrisha #41 keeping it short, cause it is now my bed time.
I keep thinking I'm going to join in...one of these weeks! Glad you're making progress on Christmas...me? Not so much!
ReplyDeleteNo room for me until I get home tomorrow night. I forgot to take it before I left. Am in Germany at the moment! all worn out but feeling Christmassy at last.
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing your desk with it rocking horse and for the lovely card. Guess I should start on mine when I get home. Oh heck!
Hugs, Neet x.
Ps love to Bleubeard
You are guaranteed a rocking good Christmas with all those RH's around. I'm just not bothering about cards as DH will write and post bought ones for me. Christmas is going to be a relax this year as the family cannot come this time. New baby in Germany will be visiting with the rest of the loved ones in January so I'll have another Christmas dinner to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteYou are looking so organised and really festive and I love that it's recycled too.

ReplyDeleteHey there, Elizabeth - thanks for dropping by. Good to see you on the desks again after your mammoth November gig. I love the RH in the frame, very Victorian looking. You can just imagine seeing that in Buckingham Palace :-)
ReplyDeleteHugs, LLJ 36 xx

ReplyDeleteGreat WOYWW, thanks for sharing. xx Jan (95)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the making...but most of all enjoy your Christmas. Have a particularly happy one.
ReplyDeleteI love the different angle on your desk and I am intrigued by the term 'tip ins' it isn't one I have heard before. What does it mean? Thanks for sharing. Happy WOYWW. Caro x (#75)
ReplyDeleteI am pleased I am not the only one only now starting on Christmas. Can't wait to see your cards, I too love using my own papers and I am spying some fabulous stamps on your workspace to be used with them. Loving your framed rocking horse its so sweet and I hope you have a great week! Danie #25
ReplyDeleteDecember is a much more appropriate time to start thinking about Christmas :-)

Happy to have you back, but AedM was good wasn't it. Loving the pin, on those pages. And after a busy thanksgiving, I'm hoping you've had a bit of rest before dragging out the Christmas mojo!
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth and Bleubeard and Happy WOYWW!
ReplyDeleteI am so missing T for Tuesday but just don't have the time at the moment. So I couldn't pass you by without saying Hi, and I love all that I see here, I am so behind on Christmas and I wasn't going to be, but as usual I am! I just hope I don't get a bug now like last year that totally stops me doing a thing!

I'm thinking about it, but not getting very far. Too many appointments this last week, but now they are over for a bit, I'll have to get on with it. Love your creative mess.. and the rocking horses too
ReplyDeleteOf course you can add my blog. Thanks for the advice on WOYWW. I certainly don't need any stress in my life right now. I do appreciate your friendship and visits to my blog
ReplyDeleteA sign of a true artist at work - wonderful! Love the rocking horse, too! xo
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your coloured papers with the printing showing through, Elizabeth, and the dinky little rocking horses - the little Christmas one is so dear. Gorgeous colours on your blog post this time, and lots of activity!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comment - and absolutely no need to apologise for not visiting lately - I know better than most atm the problem of "life getting in the way" - big time, with Dad being so poorly.
So glad you liked my card. With the video, you should be able to click on the Youtube logo and see it there. If not, go to my Youtube channel (Shoshiplatypus) and you will see it in my videos list. Happy viewing!
Blogger can be such a pain sometimes. I'm having problems with not being able to leave comments if I use Firefox, but it works fine in Chrome, so I have both browsers open!
Happy belated WOYWW,

Hi Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteOh, I definitely need to get in the Christmas spirit. Lighting my candles in the evenings has certainly helped. Not to mention dying the red clothes pins!
Your rocking horse on your sewing machine is beautiful. THAT definitely made me think of Christmas.
Thank you for visiting me already!
Happy WOYWW
peace, Kay (12)
That's awesome! Great ideas! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth,good to see you on a roll with the Christmas cards. Love your painted pages. Hugs to Bleubeard! Running late this week, playing catch-up now. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #57 xx
ReplyDeleteNice to see your Christmas stuff out and at the ready, I expect you have done loads in the past few days. Yes the Thorntons = Chocolates. Glad you like the screen cleaners, i hope my boys will too. Sorry it has taken me so long to reply, been knocked sideways yet again and have been struggling this week. BJ#81
