First of all can I offer a big Welcome to Sylvia for joining my followers.  I hope you find some things of interest on my blog as time goes on.

Well, another week has gone by and nothing to show craftwise on my table.  I did however, have a friend call down yesterday and she wanted to see the MISTI in action so we did a Peony and she made a card for her son with the Flamingo on it.  The reason for making the card for Gary was that he is funding her purchases of a MISTI and some stamps to do the triple stamping with as her Christmas present. He likes to buy her a crafty gift but by now she has die cutting machines aplenty so I suggested she had a look at this stamping aid.

Margaret was sold!  I hope Gary is!  This is my desk this morning - nothing put away although the stamps were cleaned and put on their backing sheets.  A job for now I guess.  Blame it on my bad back.

I am going to show you my worktop in the kitchen because I have some amazing flowers on it that a friend and her husband sent to me to cheer me up.  I loved the autumnal colours but some of the flowers really blew me away too.  I thought the little white roses were artificial until I touched them - they were real.  Can you see the unfurled ones?

Some flowers I had never seen before

Anyone know what these two orange flowers are?

I just loved the whole display, the leaves were as shiny as shiny

and the Chrysant was beautiful

Sorry Julia, I just got carried away

Love flowers, love autumnal colours

Now, I am off to see what the Queen of Deskers has got on her blog today and then have a morning relaxy vous looking at what others have been up to this week.  See you there!
