WOYWW #225

Okay, first off, is it coincidence that WOYWW #225 is on The 25th? I think not. If you have no clue what I'm talking about, head on over to Julia Dunnit's blog for a long list of blogs we spend hours hopping to. Then for further explanation, go to her EXPLANATION page.

I'm squeaking this in on Tuesday night while I'm tweeting TheVoice for work. I'm trying not to work too  much while my MIL is visiting. Once I get started I forget to stop. LOL

Next on the list is the big REVEAL. Back on #223 I told everyone about the Surprise gifties I was making for members of our Paper Blogger Reunited (PBR) group. Five of our members were meeting up at ScrapFest in Mall of America. I couldn't go but I sent pressies for the other girls via member Maggie. So what did I send?

I took one of those $1 20-pic plastic photo albums then created the cover in PrintShop. I used a glitter mat from DCWV Glitter Pad. They'll have a brag album to remember their trip and pics of each of our members who made the trip.

Finally... my desk for this week. I have no place upstairs to work... aka the music promo/ writing stuff I do every day. The card table I might use is being used for our dining room table while Bob's mom and her husband visit for a couple more days. So everything is on my stamp table. 

You'll see a couple of things handy. I'm putting together a couple of Sympathy cards for her and have some images to stamp. Then it's back to working on my books. The first chapter of my Western Historical Romance, Jayson's Range, took 2nd in competition last weekend so I'm hoping to finish that novel and start putting it out the door soon. 

I should have a scrap project of sorts on the desk next week and back to regular blogging again soon.

Creative Blessings!

WOYWW #223 - Something for Special Friends

Happy WOYWW everyone! Have no clue what that means? Hop on over to Julia Dunnit's blog. She is the ringleader of our group of window peekers. We travel the blogesphere every week looking in on others' studios to see what everyone else is working on. Go HERE for official details and how you can become one of us!

After a couple of down weeks (has it really only been that long?) I was able to do some creating this week. I got some cards made. Have a few more to go but it felt good to play!

So what am I up to this week? Well, it's kind of surprise.

Several members of our Paper Bloggers Reunite group have booked their flight and hotel reservations and are now stressing over what to pack. They are converging on Mall of America for ScrapFest2013. I wish I were going, but I'll be there in tangible spirit. I'm not giving any more details but Maggie will have something for each of them from me. 

And that, my studio peeping tom/ tomettes is all you get this week.
