Morning WOYWW er's

Good Morning to you all

I have my latest project to show you this morning. The 21st Card that I shared last week went down a storm and resulted in an order from another club lady for a 50th card for her neice. She sounds like a bit of a character really, the background I was given was that she is to be 50 years old, plays electric guitar in a band and is nicknamed Scrumpy! The request was that I use the same card shape as the 21st...so here it is..



Outside                                                                 and Inside...
I have decided to be brave and enter this one for a challenge, after a chat with Chrissie yesterday (thanks for your time and advice Chrissie!), I am going to enter this card in the challenge at Crafty Ann's Blog. Pop over and have a look.
Now some of you will know by now that I can't work in a total mess, so once I had finished I tidied up ready for another session this morning...but  guess what?????   Don't tell any one, but I think my house has a crafting fairy, or a ghost??? Look at my desk this morning-




The guilty party is my Daughter, who now she is finished exams and college and that annoying stuff is resurrecting her scrapbook that she started ages ago. This is the result of her rummaging through my papers etc for matching colours for her pages.....now where did I see that padlock???


Pop over the Stamping Ground to check out the other WOYWW desks today.

    There's no need to be gentle Diane, this card is absolutely gorgeous! It fits the brief you were given to perfection - it also fits our challenge at CACB to perfection too. Well done to Chrissie for persuading you to enter, I'm honoured that Crafty Ann's was your first challenge and I hope we'll see your stunning work as often as possible in the future.

    Lovely card. Glad you are entering it in a contest. I's so in awe of your storage units, and of course you know (from last week) I am in awe of your ink pens (if you can call them that) and their storage. I like that those drawers are on casters and will roll wherever you need them. Really clever storage. Now if only you could get those art gremlins (ie daughter) to clean up after themselves . . .

    Thanks for visiting. Clever card - like you I like to make my cards very personal (not easy to see on the baby card - don't know a lot about him yet). How nice you and your daughter share the crafting interest - so do I and my DD.

    Lovely card, I saw your comment over at Chrissie's, glad you've taken the plunge! Kids huh? On the one hand it's great that you both share a hobby and can spend time together, but on the other.......!!

    Ah Diane. My DD is the same. It's not the rummaging or the using of my stash that I don't like. It's the assumption that it's OK to leave out all over the place for me to put away. My DH says she learned it from me, but I cannot believe it. Argh.
    Fab card - as I'm now nearer 50 to 40 I should like to say that it suddenly doesn't seem unusual that the recipient plays in a band and enjoys her life. Defensive, huh!!

    Fab card, Diane.
    The book shape is brilliant.
    I love to do 'personal' cards myself and am sure Scrumpy will treasure this one

    Thank you for joining us at Crafty Ann's...I hope we'll see you again :-)
