WOYWW-What's different in this photo?

WOYWW? I'll show you mine if you show me yours!
I had a 55% off coupon so after the Fiber Art Alliance Christmas Party I bought myself a new cutting mat!
When I moved here 6 years ago mine got left in a hot car and warped beyond repair, and now I have a light and dark flat cutting surface over my entire desk!
The shears in the center is one of those new Fiscars super duper cutters, and it cut up my old mat like it was paper.
Did I tidy or reorganize? NO!
I whipped the old mat out and zipped in the new one and piled all the same mess on top.
sort of comforting
There is evidence of the new Quietfire Design Christmas stamps- please go check these out. They are especially lovely, non religious and  on sale!

Scroll down to here to see my ornament from the Imagine swap.
Above is my arty elf shot! Moi as elf.
FAA meeting had a gift swap and I got a hand quilted pot holder, some cards, and feeling in the mood got these card holders at a Thrift shop.
Birthday cards en masse for the Montreat PCUSA Women's Circle.
Advent wreath on the left.
If you were looking for mess you came to the right place.
Happy mess!
I'm not ruling out elves coming and finishing up some of this stuff!
Thanks for visiting!

Your desk looks very organised! I especially love the coloured drawers on the right! I put a cutting mat in my hot car once. That's something you don't do twice!
Thanks for stopping by,

Your new cutting mats are fabulous, loving the large size and that they can cover your entire workspace. I so need one or two of those. Loving all the wonderful eye candy of your second pic too, it definitely sounds like you have lots happening. Hope you have a great week and Happy WoyWW. Danie #25

Do you think there are elves to spare? Because I sure need them I'm my craft room, there's fabric and snippets everywhere!! I LOVE all your little sets of drawers..I have a real love of things like that, they're so satisfying and keep all the little bits and bobs in order. Can I come around and have a play?? I'll be ever so good......;-)
Hugs, LLJ 36 xx
