Here we are again at Julia's Place to present our desks in all their glory! I've been busy scrapping this week trying to catch up with my day to day photos and I only have them printed up 'till the beginning of July! Hmmm need to order some more prints methinks - oh the selection is so laborious.My latest page is laid out as it was earlier. It is of The Craft Barn Extravaganza back in June where I met Karen on the Tando table and Neil busy with his "big one" (kitchen towel!!) and Dylusions. I have since finished (I think) the page so you can see the "before" & "after" stages, and I used some of my watch pieces from woyww #176, for the first time. GRIN!
This week I have also received the next Art Journal in a circle thingymebob I am doing at present. My first real adventure into AJing and so nice to see other people's work in the flesh as the AJs pass through.
There are also some SWAPs hiding in the final picture. My November SWAP card on UKPC where we have the theme of spots for Children in Need, plus my December EXCHANGE pieces where we are doing a patchwork wall hanging in Red, Gold and Green. The brown envelope has my original Advent tag all packed up and ready to post in December!
Still need to make more of those pesky Christmas cards though!!! I'll be looking out for inspiration on your desks for those. I'll always reply if you leave your number. Happy WOYWW - BJ.

Just received my prize from the $50 winning on the Random Draw at Simon Says Stamp and Show. It took a week to get here and it was my first ever entry so I was extra blessed. Can't believe how cheap card is in the USA, so I go 2 packs, some metal embellishments and the adorable little mini lantern just right for my Nativity Scene Stable. You can see I couldn't wait to see if it worked, hoped USA batteries were the same as UK ones - phew! The tiny bottle of crackle accents made up the amount including the mega postage from the US. Oh happy me. Thank you SSS&S.

Lovely post, BJ. Your latest scrap layout is gorgeous - love the circles and the positioning of the embellishments ... matched to the photo subjects. Great photos of the day too. Happy WOYWW, Elizabth x (no number yet)

Happy WOYWW. Great scrap LO - lovely colours and the circles are fab. I keep meaning to start an AJ of my own, but time passes by and I still haven't got round to it. One day! Ali x #55
Great layout of a great day. Can't wait for next year's....! Have a good day, Helen 4
Morning BJ. Great desk today, though I will admit to feeling a bit weird thinking I'm in someone else's scrapbook! Great layout though, it was a good weekend that!

I'm sat reading my WOYWW blogs on my sick bed this week but have my mask on so you don't catch anything. I'm enjoying reading what everyone is up to this week [it's better than reading magazines :-) ]. I'm leaving a copied comment so you know I've called by because my hands are too weak and shaky to keep typing out my comments this week.
Big hugs,

Like Neil says...it was a fabulous weekend I feel really honoured to be part of your scrapbook. Lovely page BJ xxx

Great L.O. the Extravagzer was great fun. Lucky you on your win, Simon Says always have reasonable prices it's that dratted P&P that pushes the prices up.
Your layouts are beautiful! Congratulations on your Win! Happy Halloweenie today!
Great prize isn't it - love that little lamp, how dear! Meanwhile your Lo is great - I wonder if the beautifully posed Neil knows that he's a feature in your scrapbook!
Your desk is so neat and tidy! And gorgeous layout! Congrats o the win - enjoy your new goodies. Thanks for stopping by my desk today. Happy WOYWW! Tammy #106

Happy WOYWW.

Oh, I'm so happy you won the drawing! And got some fab goodies for it, yeah! We, in the states, probably don't realize how great the prices are here on craft supplies...but then again, according to the overflowing state of our desks and craft rooms, maybe we do! lol It's the reason I have to reorganize at times, after all. :) Thanks for stopping by my newly reorganized desk and leaving a sweet comment...Deeyll #60
That little lantern is the cutest, I am looking forward to seeing your Christmasdecorations, wouldn't it be fun to do a Christmas on Wednesday posting? I love looking at peoples trees! Still hoping I'm forgiven for my little prank, waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
Loving the after layout and so pleased for you that you got a fab prize from SSS&S. So much fun to be had!! Happy WOYWW, hugs Buttons #81
Great looking layout! Looks like everyone was enjoying the extravaganza! I love cropping with friends. Congrats on that great win! Thanks for sharing and dropping by my blog! Have a great week! Vickie #37
I so rarely see scrapping on WOYWW - how funny you and I both have layouts up today!
Happy WOYWW a day late.

Bit late getting round this week - busy day yesterday, so much so that I have jumped up the 'leader-board' from #65 to 62.
Congratulations on your win - lovely prize and tags.
Love the page but your fooled me a bit - clicked on the before picture first by mistake and wondered why you had used scraps of paper for the letters - the 'after' is much nicer.

Your layout and AJ are fantastic, BJ! Congrats on the mega win from all the Sesses! What fun you'll have with all that! Darnell #63
Great layout! How fun to have met some crafty friends. I enjoyed the "in progress" shot as well. It is interesting to see how the final product came about. What great goodies you got from Simon Says. Neat mini lantern! Of course you had to try it out immediately!!!!
