Welcome to today’s edition of What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday (WOYWW) – a brainchild of Julia Dunnit’s at Stamping Ground! For those who are tuning in for the first time, each Wednesday, a group of bloggers fearlessly show off their workspaces for all the world to see! It’s a fun way to get organizational ideas, see what’s new […]

One World One Heart 2010 Giveaway
Welcome to the 2010 One World One Heart Extravaganza – I’m so excited to be a part of this event! OWOH began as a way to connect bloggers around the world whose paths might not otherwise cross. According to OWOH creator and host Lisa Swifka, this event “transcends geographical location, socio economics, political affiliation, and religious beliefs.” The event has […]
Kathy’s Name ATC
It’s time to share my first Name ATC of 2010! This card was designed for my friend Kathy at ATCs R Us. As many of you know, I do my best to customize each card based on my impressions of the recipient. I’ve been reading Kathy’s blog, Inkin’ It Up, for quite some time now, and […]

WOYWW #3 – Time To Clean & Organize!
Monday morning, when I walked into the Paper Palace, this was the sight that greeted me. It was not a pretty picture, to say the least. It was, quite frankly, a MESS. Now, I’ve tolerated bigger messes before – after all, there was still some usable space on the desk – but I wasn’t feeling […]

Jingle All The Way – Ice, Winter, Bling

Jingle All The Way is the third ATC in my Wonder Of Winter series. As you can see from my previous cards, I’ve used similar colors and embellishments to tie the ATCs together visually, but have focused on a different aspect of Winter in each card. I’ve also discovered some wonderful design blogs along the way. Here […]
Snowflake ATC (PDCC12)
I have always loved the color blue. I also naturally gravitate towards monochromatic color schemes. Therefore, I was thrilled to learn that this week’s challenge at The Play Date Cafe offers the opportunity to combine both faves into a project of choice! The Play Date Cafe’s Challenge of the Week (PDCC12) is to interpret the icy […]
Winter Wonderland ATC
This week, Lots To Do issued their first challenge of the year – create anything you want with a Winter Wonderland theme – so I created this beautiful ATC! My goal in Winter Wonderland was to convey the serenity and beauty of a snowy winter’s night. The centerpiece of this ATC is the snow-covered tree! I love […]
WOYWW 2 – Cat Chat – Frugal Finds
This is my second What’s On Your Work Desk Wednesday Challenge post and I am still feeling a tad shy about baring my mess for the blogosphere to see, but today, I’ll dip another toe into the water and give you a larger look at my clutter! I am blessed with a large workspace – or […]
