WOYWW #259..My 100th Post this year!!


Hi,

I am most excited that my 100th post this year falls on the same day as WOYWW (join Julia and the gang on her blog Stamping Ground for more info about WOYWW).

Maintaining a blog is hard work, but made much easier when you have things like WOYWW and all your blogland buddies.

My desk is a bit random at the moment...I am doing a big OWH drive, so you can see some remnants from this - my 'love' stamp folder, newish glasses, scissors, inks, stamp press - with a stamp, mouse and some random stencils.

I am most excited about next week's ATC swap!! I made 12, 2 have homes already so if you want to swap, just leave a comment and we can swap addresses - I am based in NYC and don't mind posting to wherever.

I ran out of time to make a little card for you WOYWWer's..So I thought I would show you the pop-up Anniversary card I made for my President (Terry) to give to his wife for their 30th Anniversary..

Pop-up Card
Each panel was personalised as per Terry's request - aeroplane (travel), heart (love) - the 3rd panel contains a quote relating to food and family. I went for spotty papers, that didn't clash or overpower the rest of the details. The card was cut using a Silhouette template.

I love it, Terry loves it and I believe his wife does too :)

See you for a desk snoop later :)

    Thanks ladies! I do love a pop-up card!! Stamp press was a 'gift' to myself about a week ago, as I bought the big one (still by my desk to be returned) and was upset that it was too big :)

    Your pop-up anniversary card is a work of art, Claire!! Thank you for sharing it and your crafty desk!! Thank you for visiting me, too, and, yes, I would love to swap ATCs with you if you have enough. I haven't started mine yet, so I'm just making a list so that's easy! Well, I mean, it's easy knowing how many I need, but (gulp) it would be nice if I also came up with an idea of what to make (gulp)!! Enjoy the long weekend!! Hugs, Darnell #29
