WOYWW 550- Chris-mayhem! Irrational season!

Mess to mayhem!
Cards on lower left at least I know which are going where!
Embossing, dry and thermal is happening.
Tags and hostess boxes-Quietfire digital poinsettias to the rescue!
I have found that if your comment box is in a pop up, I can comment, if its embedded in the post I can't-mysteries of digital life!

This is the irrational season
when love blooms bright and wild.
Had Mary been filled with reason
there’d have been no room for the child.

Ho Ho Ho Y'all- May it be merry and bright!

WOYWW- 539 -WARNING- This post may be hazardous to your diet!


Watch your wallet and your waistline !
New holiday stamps from 
I'm ok with Christmas being year round- the Christmas that is:
Peace on Earth
Awaiting and Welcoming our children.
Exchanging gifts to express our love for each other,
Goodwill to all,
Expectant waiting-Advent- for all good things to come.

Those innocent looking wreaths are calorie enticing toppers!
Read the topper blog post here
(Backstory)

Shout out to Susan Tierney Cockburn
Many of you know her Susan's Garden die cuts.
Getting to know Susan we became FB friends, and was quickly seduced by her baking photos! and recipes.
Cakes, cookies, puds, breads- oh my.
When I saw this wreath file, my mind went immediately to sweets.
Where oh were is my cupcake pan?
My local Thrift- shout out to Kiwanis- who donated almost $200,000 to the children in our Valley with my $1 and $5 purchases! supplied me with these adorable mini cake pans.

and the rest (of the diet) is history!
Shaggy dog back to the sticky bun?
I had to make something before I found the pans!
(those buns are ancient history- except for the hips!)

Friends- I am making my best efforts to visit y'all, and for some reason I'm finding it a challenge to leave comments on some blogs.
Please picture me there, and I thank and welcome you for my picture of you here!

Dear Deskers- many blogs I visit, with my best intentions, I cannot leave a comment- seems to be a google/safari thing.

WOYWW 504 - New Year, New Group!- New Light!

Pretty tidy, as I am watching paint dry!
The asian lady came in a grab bag at my local thrift shop.
I'm waiting for her to inspire me.
Suggestions?
Lots of backgrounds in prep for our ATC class, getting ready for a National Library ATC swap.

I'm excited to share,
 Suzanne of Quietfire has finally caved and started a FB group where we can all share our creations made with her designs.
Please join us at
We will inspire each other and Suzanne will be doing FB live tutorials,
and giveaways could happen!

Last, and not at all least, I got this light box for $15 US on amazon.
When I moved into a small space, I got rid of my heavy, big, hot, afraid I'm going to break a bulb lights.
This box is small, easy to get out, lots of bright  LED light and honestly almost as good as light noted above.
 Much as I love natural light, you can see how dark it is today and sometimes a photo just has to be taken!
No affiliation, and I just got it so can't say how long it will last.
Still for $15....

Thanks for visiting!

Quietfire New Year ATC's-Crafting NYRs (please scroll down!)


Be kind
Use what I have
Follow directions
Don't follow directions
Just do it

Suzanne tells us to only make a post with one project, or if we do more than one  make the first photo a group photo, as no one scrolls down.
Please scroll down.
I said something to Suzanne the other day about new stamps and she replied(kindly)
Have you used all the old ones?
I'm working on that.
These continue the
 On My Desk
series, as the backgrounds were found on my desk at the end of the day.
If you are local to Asheville area, join me Feb 9 1-3 for an

WOYWW- 500 -Milestones

Milestones can tell you both how far you have come and how far you have to go.
I'm not sure when I first came aboard (adesk?) WOYWW and I can tell you that I hope we will all be around for another 500!
While not claiming it to be a NYR, here you see my progress on getting all my stamps catalogued so that I know here they are, when I want to use them.
Hold that in prayer!
Happy New Year deskers all!
500 shout outs to Julia who keeps us all together.

Thanks for visiting.
I am visiting- forgive me if I don't comment- Blogger is not being my friend.
