Went to an Oyster Stamps workshop on Thursday and made some lovely cards using the Misti. The inventor of this wonderful tool was there - over from America. Here is a photo of me with Iliana.
and one of the many cards we made
Just love how the layering of stamps gives the look that is on the flamingo. This is my favourite one.
The reason for this start to my WOYWW post is that there is nothing much on my desk. Worked Saturday and Sunday demonstrating the Misti in Leigh at the show and was fine. Went home and started making dinner and "Bang!" the back went again. Spent most of Monday in bed with a hot water bottle clutched to my back and plenty of pills. Same again on Tuesday but got some extra tablets from the doc.
Consequently nothing to show on my desk
At the back is my new brush holder, for my tall brushes. I found a few that I needed included so they are sitting on top until I get around to sewing the channels. In front is the card I did a Make & Take with at the show and then there are my templates that I was hoping to use to do some stamping on circles. The pretty image to the right is one I have had difficulties with since I got it - have finally got it closer to trying it in the Misti - will let you know (and see) how I get on.
The other side of the L-shape has my Misti on it as I was showing "t'other 'alf" how to use the three stamps to make a delightful Peoni.
Well, that is all for now. Pop along to see Julia and then you can look at much more interesting desks than mine if you want. Great idea for a rainy Wednesday.
