Another week another workdesk - well the same one,
but with different things on it!
I'm working on an altered book following the
brilliant guidance and classes currently being given by
I'm on Lesson 4 and have just stuck together some
of the pages with various different mediums,
and given each page a coat of white paint and distress inked the edges.
I'm hoping to get the rest of the lesson completed
before the end of the week.
I was lucky enough to win a giveaway last week from
it's the lovely Spring felt basket and all that wonderful lace!
If like me you like having a snoop around other desks,
go directly to
you'll see why when you get there!
Have a great week, whatever you're up to
and enjoy the sun shine if you have it :)

I read your AB posts and what an adorable niche you've created! That's such a cool theme - I look forward to how you're going to explore it. I've got my pages glued together and tagged and am now starting to decorate them. Thanks for the visit - I look forward to seeing everyone's progress.
What an absolutely brilliant idea, Sherry. That's the student putting the teacher to shame (grin). So glad to see all that ribbon, too. You are very lucky. Happy WOYWW from #3.

That packet of ribbon and lace looks interesting - good win!
I really want to do what you are doing with the book - I have all the bits, but I get too busy with making cards. I will go and have a look at Elizabeths blog cos I didn't realise she was doing the workshops.

Oh aren't you clever, I like the idea of inking the edges of the pages, but I'm a bit behind that stage just now. I hope to make good before E posts the next lesson though! Lucky and lovely win, well done you!

Busy desk as usual and what a lovely giveaway to win!! Well, I've popped ont to say you've won another one!! The mosaic bird which was the March Art Draw. Should be with you soon!!

Love those cards of lace - did you buy them like that.
I don't think I ever showed my room as it was when it was completed by the BSB as I didn't blog then. I might have shown some photos as I do have a few in an album. I really couldn't find them on my blog. If you are desperate to see email me and I will copy a couple to you. My button is on my side bar.
