For those of you who stopped by last week, this is how the raffle basket for the writer's banquet turned out. My theme was 'Celebrate!' A bottle of Merlot, two wine glasses filled with Hershey kisses, a Dark Chocolate bar and two party horns. I upcycled a box that 7x9 padded manila envelopes come in by cutting it down at an angle and covering in left-over monochromatic white wrapping paper. What isn't here is the Merlot colored ribbon around the neck bottle and as a belly band on the front of the box.
My worktable this week looks as if the high winds we had earlier in the week went through my studio. I've been working on my February Tim Holtz tag. After three attempts, I'm finally making progress. I hope to post that tomorrow.
tub of adhesives, drawers from my Tim Holtz storage cabinet, 6x6 pads of paper, tag bits and pieces as well as a little of everything else LOL
That's my desk? What's on yours? When you are done visiting
me in the Ozarks, please hop on over to Stamping Ground where Miss Julia has a
long list of other studios you can peek into. No standing on an up-turned milk
pail to look in the window. We open the doors wide and welcome you. We won’t
touch.. just look. J I can't wait
to peek but if Bob is home for I might be late again getting 'round.
Please leave your number and you'll be first on my list.
Your celebrate box is great. This would make a great Valentine themed box too!

I wish high winds would leave me such lovely fun things on my desk. All I get is dust and random leaves... and it isn't even windy! How does this happen?! Cool gift box for sure! PJ #53
ReplyDeleteOh that basket looks good. Lots of interesting stuff on your desk too. Barbx #45

You've got a lovely busy desk this week, it all looks so interesting - isn't that always the case with other people's stash - I would love a rummage! The raffle basket is great - what a great prize to win.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week,

If it looks like a hurricane has passed that's always a good thing because that means that actual crafting took place :-) Vicky#18

ReplyDeleteHi Kelly, thanks for the visit to mine. Messy desk looks good to me, just as they should be Kelly. Happy crafty woyww, Angela x 26
ReplyDeleteHey Kelly, thanks for the visit to my blog. I love your desk...I love making the TH tags, but for some reason I find them quite stressful! I'm decided whether or not to play along in 2016. Cx #46
ReplyDeleteWe crafters cannot create with everything all neat and tidy so why do we worry so much ! I'm trying to be disciplined this year and put away at least the following morning before I start again !! #66
ReplyDeleteThe raffle basket is so cool! Great items that are sure to please! I love Tim Holtz projects but have never tried any. But I know they're messy to make! Your desk is just right for working on them! Thanks for the visit and I hope you have a great weekend!

What a lovely busy, industrious desk, Kelly! I use quite a lot of TH products but have never made his tags. Your raffle basket is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sweet comment, and for missing me! I feel well and truly back into the swing of things again, which is a great feeling! I'm really behind catching up with all my blog comments because I've been very busy and only just got my hubby's Valentine card completed in time - it's on my blog now.
Happy belated WOYWW,

Hi Kelly, thanks for popping over and for comment, I've just looked up where the Ozarks are, and can imagine it's very fold...but beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWe spent the morning on the beach today, under umbrellas in beach chairs, very lovely sunny and perfect temperature in and out of the water.
Well your desk is very reassuring ... Love seeing someone work as I do. :)
