woyww - art journal and cards

The beginning of an art journal page.  Trying out the new "typo" letter stamps and of course on the right the magazine with Kate Crane's article which always inspires me to give it a go.
The desk is relatively tidy as I had finished making Xmas cards and did a quick tidy up for the pic.  Still  need to make about 40 more cards and I should be set.  Hopefully I will remember where I put them when I go to post the cards in December.
Not a lot to show for a week but I am sure inspiration awaits at other desks on WOYWW.

    Such a tidy desk! Your Christmas cards are gorgeous and loving the colour on your journal page. Thanks for your visit - I promise you - you will looove the Abominable Snowman spray, one of the nicest I have ever used. Happy WOYWW, Anne x #13

    You should not tidy up the desk to take a photo that defeats the purpose of WOYWW when we want to see it messy. Those chrissy cards are lovely especially the green and blue one.

    have you got 'unfurling' by misty mawn? (I swear that must be a pen name - how ace is it?) it is one of y favorite journaling books...

    your cards are lovely, and i Guess if you hand make so many you have to start now to be done in time...

    Well, my resolution this year was to do at least one Christmas card a month, so I wouldn't have to do loads at once. We are now in October, and I have a grand total of ONE card done. I think this counts as an epic fail,lol.Love your cards, and the journal colours. Have a great week, Shaz #60

    Hi Sandra De, I love the turquoise and green bauble card. What a fab colour combination. Have fun with your art journalling. Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 65

    What a lovely start to that journal page - beautiful colours. Your Noel card is beautiful, that is my favourite. Thank you for your visit today. I suspect my desk will be upside down before the end of the day as I need to do a few Blue Peter "ones that I did earlier", so that I can demonstrate what we are trying to do tomorrow. Have a good week. xx Maggie #36

    The paper on that card is lovely. What a nice mix of colours. And the baubles looks perfect. I find Kate so inspiring and she has such a lovely style. But what is the mag title? Not Craft Stamper, is it? ??

    Of course you will remember where to put them - in the Postbox silly (yes I know what you really mean). Usually leave my C cards until late November so have no chance of 'losing' them.

    Lovely colours on your journal page and your cards are beautiful. I particularly like the paper on the second of your cards, it's stunning. That doesn't look like a magazine we can find over here, or is it Craft Stamper? Hope you have a good week and happy WOYWW, Elizabeth x #49

    hi sandra
    looks like you have done quite a lot in a week, your cards are lovely only a few more weeks and you will have finished ... groan!
    All the stuff on my desk this week is the culmination of several months of work but couldnt show before. I cant get my head in gear to 'do' Christmas just yet

    I LOVE that Noel card, all soft buttery yellows, taupes and oranges, scrummy! And very untypically festive too - which I really like!

    I really thought I'd already left a message ... your cards are stunning and considering how creative you've been your desk is sooo tidy too.
    I've put photo instructions on my blog for the secret message card so it might be OK for you to try out from this. Give it a go! I assure it is easy once you try it out. Jo x
