WOYWW and some Funky News!!

It's Wednesday already! I have been so busy for the past few days I actually had to tidy my desk before I could finish off and pack up what I was working on.
My desk looks relatively tidy now although my scraps are a complete mess and I think I need to sort through them! I bought some Marianne design Flower dies yesterday and I want to cut a few to try them out so that should make a small dent in the pile.
There is another magazine comission packed up ready to send in the box. It was something a bit different for me and I really enjoyed the Challenge. The past few days I have been playing with my Nesties a lot. A various points they have been spread over my floor, bed etc...I borrowed the idea of storing them in this CD box from Clare Curd but it is not really working for me. I guess if I was a crafter who put the last thing they used away before I took the next thing it would....those of who who have seen my desk at it's worst know that I am not that organised. I am more of a tip it all out, have a rummage, stuff it all back in a hurry 4 hours later because there is no room left on the floor to be able to leave the room to go to the loo without breaking anything!
Anyway....I mentioned in my post header that I had some Funky News to share. I found out at the weekend that I have made it on to the Funky Hand Design Team! Amazingly exciting news! I can't wait to get started and am so honoured to have been chosen to work with such talented ladies who I have admired since I started crafting!

I will be having a little break from crafting for the next couple of weeks but will still be around to share my DT projects and some bits and pieces I have made recently but not yet shown. It is time to have a bit of a rest and recharge my mojo to be fresh and ready for lots more!
I hope you have enhoyed looking at my desk and apologies for the long post! If you want to see more desks, please pop over to Julia's for more WOYWW fun!

  1. Ah well done Jane - the Funky Hand chose well! Hope you enjoy it. Your desk looks marvellous - I'm the same, which is why my clear stamps are a nuisance, i just don't put away enough!! I'm almost at the stage of magnetic sheets on the wall for the nesties..a nice neat box is just not working...will track your storage idea with interest!

  34. CD Cases work for me to store Nesties. I have them piled on top of each other with a label depicting the contents on the edge. Brilliant!
    Your stuff look as interesting as ever!
