What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday

I am hopping on to the WOYWW blog hop today. It has been awhile since I have shared my messy creative space. And, no, this past weekend my bed turned into my desk. My desk is rather small due to my small apartment so when I need to spread out I use my bed - not ideal but it works.

Earlier this month, I decided to participate in an inspiration card deck swap being hosted by Jessica at In Search of Dessert and inspired by Christine Mason Miller.

So, this past weekend I embraced gesso, texture, decided to combine my monthly color challenge by Louise Gale along with this project - honestly, I only have so many hours when I am awake and not at my day job so sometimes I need to get creative and combine my activities.

I chose to imprint a leaf and add purple marks to the cards.

I have been able to finish one side of a few cards by adding inspirational words. Check back later this month to see more of the finished project.

Thanks for visiting my Workdesk this week now hop on over to Julia's hop at Stamping Ground so that you can stalk a few other creative desks and see what they have been up to.

Enjoy!

  14. We have to use the space we have -- a bed makes perfect sense to me! Your project looks like it is coming along really well - can't wait to see what they look like finished!

    Happy WOYWW
