Another WOYWW or, is that the same cup of tea?

No, honest, it isn't (the same cup of tea) but I do have a habit of making a cup, taking a slip and then suddenly realising two hours have passed and the tea's gone cold. So...I'm at work (the right work this week) and this is on timer, coz I got up half an hour before I went to bed to take these pictures for 'What On Your Workdesk Wednesday'. Pop over to Julia's blog and have a shifty at everyone's mess - I mean craftyness!
Not that much going on. A few ATC's for a couple of swaps. My Tacky Glue is ebbing it's way into the weekly photo. (The stick acts as the lid and then I can use it to dab on the glue) And a few scribblings I did last night. I was going to call it, 'In My Garden.' but that would be a bit of a fib as my garden is looking a bit shell shocked at the moment and the shed, although the inspiration for the drawing, doesn't really look like that, but it is blue, and the water butt does sort of lean to one side. Haven't quite worked out why when I scan and then print it out, it's smaller than the original...
Last week I asked what I'd used the talc for... and the answer is, un-sticky-ing a sticking butterfly, seen here and this was last weeks 'code'. It was my kitchen work top. Dark, Light and Cream. I did it all myself. (No kidding! We'd never have guessed!) There is a pattern but only members of the secret service who can keep a secret are privy to it... and now you know, so I'll have to shoot you!
So, fancy showing us your work space? Perhaps you can go one better than a washing machine worktop or a cupboard under the Stairs! Come and join in, but be warned, it's very addictive!!
Have a crafty day!

  21. Spydie I've just resumed bloghopping after some time away and you've got me involved in even more prevarication. This WOYWW looks as though it's very addictive but it's great to be back in touch and I've actually done the linky thingy for the first time whoopee Hugs BettyXXX

  22. great drawings

    Your scanner is scanning at a low resolution, so when it is reprinted at a high (print quality) resolution it's smaller

  27. I admire how neatly you colour images. I nearly got your code ...thought it might be a tiles plan but couldn't work out colours to fit.

  28. What a great tip on the tacky glue. I had to click on the bigger picture and there it was, big as day! Loved it.

    I was in awe of your tile pattern. Awesome.

    Sorry I'm so late visiting, and on my first ever WOYWW. Unexpected company interrupted my computer time today, but I sure appreciate you dropping by and making me feel so welcome.

  29. I love how you call your fantastic drawings "scribblings", they're brilliant! Stamps are for those of us who can't draw, I really don't think you need stamps!!

    Hugs

  34. I can relate to the cup. Many days you'll find a cup of coffee or tea along with a glass of iced tea or wine all at the same time. How do you keep track of your projects? you seem to have a few things going on at a time. Your colored images are adorable and I also LOVE how your counter tops came out. I would have never guessed that for sure.
