WOYWW and LIMSketch for Christmas


So last night I left my cards in my room to dry and I place the flowersoft and glossy accents next to them to remind me that I need to use them before I photo the cards. I strategically placed paper over them till I'm ready to blog them. Although there may be a clue with the waste and the punch. I'm trying to make cards so I will have cards to blog if I have a few bad days which do happen and one of the reasons I always try to make my DT well in advance too, you never know whats round the corner.


I do have a confession for WOYWW I'm a real mucky crafter this is my floor and it collects on my feet and clothes which I walk it all in the house. In particular the square waste of sticky fixers which drives my Hubby mad.

At MJ crop there was a table of goodies from one of the girls who used to have a online shop, one of things I brought was this letter stamp. Thought it would work with this week sketch on Less is More. Found a scrap of dotty paper and green card. The holly is punched from the punch you can see on my desk.
Only two more to show and save them for tomorrow.

I love your card. Simply stunning. Your floor made me laugh, maybe you need a plastic bag taped to the edge of your desk so that your sweepings might get caught in there? Amy #143

Spyder said...

I love your card, and wow your floor is as mad as mine!! I'm in a field on my 3G dongle, zooming around as quickly as I can, while I can! HAPPY WOYWW!

Your LIM card is stunning - and your desk and floor look identical to mine - luckily mine's in the attic so my super tidy husband doesn't have to look!!!! Hugs Rachel x

Love your Christmas card! It is simple yet complex, very nice. Oh my about that floor. It often looks like a gerbil went crazy under my desk too, but not like that. We have this oleander bush outside our front door, well it is taller than our house so more a tree than a bush. It drops flowers all spring-summer-fall long and we track them all over the house so I know how those paper bits can end up everywhere.

oh Debby love the card! gorgeous fab design!

Hazel said...

Love the Christmas card - so bright and cheery. Lol! at the floor, especially in view of the tidy workspace - thanks for sharing - Hazel, WOYWW #10 x

Beryl said...

After seeing the floor of your craft room I'm feeling really virtuous. I actually ran the sucky up thing round my craftroom floor this morning - doesn't happen very often but I was fed up with those little scraps making their way into the loo.
Love your LIM card - that stamp was a great find.

Ha Ha! Another chop and dropper! Mine is with fabric but the result is the same...messy and I love it!! Happy WOYWW #130

Alice said...

simply fabulous! love this, Debby!

scrappymo! said...

I so love this card!
I need to stockpile cards ahead too. Life gets so busy at times, doesn't it.
I have a carpeted floor right now and have to lug out the heavy, big vacuum to clean those peeled off glue tape bits. I have an offer on another house and the craft room in that house will have engineered hardwood. It will be nice to not worry constantly that I might drop an ink pad or inky stamp!
And...a quick sweep of the broom instead of that heavy vacuum. I am thinking electric broom...then you don't have to bend over to sweep all the bits into the dust pan. It just gobbles it all up into that tidy little cannister...Yay~!!!

Becky said...

What a wonderful card. Ya, you do have a lot of mess on that floor :).

Anonymous said...

Hello!

I LOVE the photo of the floor by your workdesk! I never would have thought your area would look like this! What fun! :<) Love all of your cards - the Santa is my favorite and I agree that a red mat would be perfection! Wishing you a sunshine day!

Hugs,

Hi Debby, your Christmas card is stunning in its simplicity, I love it. I don't think you are any messier than the rest of us! Anne #44

trisha too said...

Debby, my floor is a mess, too. I don't know how some people can make it with carpet!

Spilled a tray full of glitter the other day . . . does that make you cringe?
