Big apologies for not getting round to see everyone last week. There were hundreds of us!!! It's really hard when you're not at home and some dog is chewing your hand off! Happy to say, I am now home from Dog sitting. No longer will anyone have to worry that I'm contaminating someone else's work desk!! Who remembers those What-a-Mess stories, all about an Afghan hound puppy? well, I think he lives on, it looks like he does, and he's doing it in my craft room!! Oh What -a-mess!! I had a quick tidy, but run out of time. Today's freebie, was going to be either a mummy..n
o, not that kind of mummy, the other kind with bandages and a grrrrrr look about him, but he seems to have wandered off. Can I find him? No. Or a vampire, but he's missing too. So today's freebie is a bit of a rushed job. My pen's nearly out of ink, and I think it's a bit...what's the word?? (It'll come to me in a minute) ...a bit...rough round the edges. If it ever gets to the store I promise, I'll re-vamp it first! But there has been a few of you who asked for a background...well...it's nearly Christmas...and they're selling mince pies in Tesco's, oh and it is Agatha Christie's birthday!

But there has been a few of you who asked for a background...well...it's nearly Christmas...and they're selling mince pies in Tesco's, oh and it is Agatha Christie's birthday!Sorry about dark pictures, it's two in the morning as I type this, so 
there's no sun, and my daylight bulb, seems to be missing as well. Very untidy desk, moments before it was sky high with crafty 'stuff' and I quickly scooped it all up and put it tidily away (in a big box on the floor) This is on timer, I'm at work, and you must now hop over to Julia's blog and join in. What with?? What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday of course!!

Glad to see you are back home and dealing with your own mess this week (grin). I like that image. How sweet of you.
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother (British to the core) made mince pies each holiday. Thanks for letting me know it was Agatha's b'day. Loved all her books and the way Masterpiece Mystery always spotlights her works. Happy WOYWW.
Your desk looks busy! Happy crafting
ReplyDeleteTwo in the morning!! Are you mad??? Wait, don't answer that question! I love Agatha and am currently re-reading Sad Cypress, a Poirot mystery!
ReplyDeleteHugs

So glad to hear I am not the only one losing track of time when I craft. Love the image. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you were typing at 2am now that is dedication. Can't believe how much stuff you have, a great amount of stash, love it. Have a good evening and hopefully more sleep and not typing in the early hours. Have a good evening, Tracy Evans x
ReplyDeleteI oft and up in the middle of the night - best time in my house - peace...blimey there is a lot of stuff showing this week...don't care if you say it is a mess - great crafting comes from it
ReplyDeleteGreat to see the old desk back and I love this weeks freebie...Thanks.
ReplyDeleteA.xx
2am - you are worse than me! How do you keep going?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the background Lyn, have saved it and hope to use it one day.

I am one of these people who doesn't sleep very well, I used to get up and do the ironing (mainly because the vacuum cleaner would wake everyone) now I get up and craft, so I do understand why you were taking pics at 2 am
ReplyDeletexx
Don't know how you do it - I am well away by 2am but can often be wide awake and ready to go by 4 am.
ReplyDeleteHi Lyn - love looking round your desk! Thanks for the freebie - I love it xx
ReplyDeleteLyn, Thank you so much for the freebie image. As far as your desk - it looks like mine when I am feeling the most creative. I usually can't find what I want anyway. It could even be in my hand or buried under a pile.
ReplyDeleteOooh I love a messy desk me! thats a beast of a pink handled thing you have there on your desk - not seen one of those before - do I need one??? Is that you on the photo too? Sorry I havent done anything with the mushroom image yet - been caught up making items for some workshops. I got the tablecloth from John Lewis - would have like the spotty one but the children liked the atlas one, I have to say it makes for some interesting conversation during dinner time!
ReplyDelete2:00 am??? Oh Geez... Lovely messy desk, I like that!!! - Carola, 112
ReplyDeleteA big thank you for the meadow seen image, glad you are back, so nice of you to dog sit...welcome home!
ReplyDeleteA lovely scene. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove Joan xx
your images are always fabulous. for some reason i cannot get them. how sad for me.
ReplyDeletedog sitting huh? not easy. kudos to you for sure!
hugs :)
What a great image. I never have enough background stamps. Thanks alot.
ReplyDeleteFantastic image.. Thank you so much for sharing your work. As for your craft area/desk...? Well, it looks great to me! Of course, I work amidst a huge mess of my own! It only gets cleaned up when I'm not being creative!
ReplyDeleteDid you make that mess since you got home or was it like it all the time you were doggy sitting? LOL Looks like you have been having some crafty fun though - so well worth the inevitable tidy up!
ReplyDeleteGreat desk this week hun xx Happy WOYWW, Sorry I'm a bit late xx Hugs Tina (#9) xx
ReplyDeletei do that too, scoop things and put them in a box. once, my cellphone got scooped up together with the rest of the stuff and i was looking for it for days!
ReplyDeleteHiya Lyn - are you sure those doggies haven't been running around on top of your workdesk?!! Love visiting your crafty space though, and I'm so nosey - who is that little cutie-pie in the photo?!
ReplyDeleteThanks for popping by today - I know how busy you always are, so it means a lot, and thanks for asking if I'm feeling better - answer is No not really! Don't know what I've got, but I don't want it! Superb freebie Lyn - will snag it now.
Loadsa hugs, Sylvia xxxx
Thanks for the digi. You have a very interesting desk... Elaine
ReplyDeleteWow, this is a fabulous digi!! Love the farm scene, it's got my imagination going. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun digi. Thank you soo much.
ReplyDeleteYour desk is funny! A good one to nosey around though!

Fab desk, but errrrr what are those things at the top right corner of your cutting mat - one looks kinda like a brown spongy ball, and for the other all I can think of is a badly filleted piece of haddock! Love the tidy method btw, scoop up and dump in a box on the floor works for me too :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome home!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a popular lady you are! I'm not surprised though. Your story-telling is hilarious and your freebies, etc., are fabulous. Thanks for the laughs and beautiful images.
ReplyDelete(Between the British lingo in your blog/comments and the acronyms of the crafters' blogging world I almost feel like I'm reading a foreign language sometimes! I like it though; it's a fun culture lesson. It's also neat to see how similar people are no matter where in the world they live! Thanks.)
I love your space. Its so busy. Does anyone even feel like eating a mince pie....we are still in a sort of summer arent we? Thanks for stopping by my blog. Nice to "meet" you. Suzanne (no. 27)
ReplyDelete2 in the morning and going to work before I post WOYWW? How do you do it Lyn, really? Love the idea of tidying up into a big box! Who's in the black and white photo - and what you going to do with it?
ReplyDeleteI reckon your desk reflects whats been going on in your life these past few weeks! It must be heaven to be back at your own desk so just you enjoy it - we are! Its great as theres so much to see!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great scene digi, its so kind of you to share it with us all!
Keryn xx
Thanks for sharing Lynn.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Jo.
