I am in the process of creating a journal page, painted the background, dribbled paint down the length of it, love this effect, pasted some impasto on and I am now creating some butterflies for the top. So the good news is I have been playing, yippee, not as much as I have wanted to play but I have been playing. I also created during the week a card. (see post on periwinkle card) Oh and I have assembled this cute little stand with some KaiserCraft paper called Lily to make this little book stand but I am going to use it for cards to take photos on, just something different. Lily is the same paper that I used on my drawers and craft stand that is on my desk, everything matches LOL. As you can see there is another stand to be assembled and covered, this will be done in a different paper.
Ah and now onto the little man, can you see him hiding under the blanket? He has this really soft and fluffy flat dog pillow that is on his chair and this he sleeps on, when he is not sleeping on us LOL. He also loves to snuggle under the blanket and this is what he is doing now. The weather is a tad on the cooler side today and he really doesn't have much hair. His coat is rather patchy, Yep he is a hair cat LOL Although I did disturb his sleep taking this photo.
As you can see here in this photo, but not for long, he just checked out what the shutter sound was, popped his little head out then realised that he could go back to sleep. He is so cute and beautiful.
If you want to see other desks then pop on over to the Stamping Ground, I suggest you grab a cuppa first and then visit everyone you can. Please leave a comment, I love them, with your link number to make it easier for me to find you and return the visit. If you do visit me, I will come and visit you it is the right thing to do.
Must be off I have desks to visit and giggle over and oh and ahh, some of the desks are amazing. I saw yesterday a desk that is usually so messy that is so clean, neat and tidy now that I am still in shock, no names mentioned, this is what happens, desks change all the time, people learn things and see other things that they like, all total fun.
bye for now
Yoda & Eliza

Love your storage Eliza and also the paper - but, once again, Yoda stole the whole show :)
Happy WOYWW, hugs, Di xx
Great desk, so neat and I love your card stands. I thought at first you were making little dolls house furniture!
Yoda is so cute! Looks like he has a great life too!

Yes, you have it in a nutshell - "he is so darned cute" and my week would not be the same without a picture of him to look at. Would love to come and give him a hug (gentle of course).
Now where were we, ah yes, journalling. Glad that you have got some crafting under your belt and look forward to seeing your journal page revealed when it is complete.
I have one of those stands and it needs decorating - maybe you will have spurred me on (but for the darned workshop prep I need to do).
Thanks for visiting me - Hugs, Neet xx (and for Yoda xx) (and for the other furries xx)
i so want everything on your desk, eliza, all your storage is soooo beautiful, and i adore that card stand *sigh*
happy WOYWW and have a great week :)
i overslept, so no. 21 this week...
Eliza love your choose of paper for decorating your drawer unit and craft stand. There look really great! Thanks for sharing. Jules No 55

Yoda is sooo cute

Lovely. I too am loving pretty storage. My stuff is in old laundry pod tubs, in many cases, and when I see PRETTY storage I just get consumed with envy....but not bad enough to actually make me DO anything about it :) One day....
Happy WOYWW

Very interesting desk. So many beautiful goodies. I'm always inspired by your work space. Thanks for sharing. SueC#97
Love your Periwinkle card. I have just planted 4 periwinkle plants in my garden. The Kaiser craft stands are cool aren't they, I have the triple one with the 3 mini books on it - thanks for visiting me already BJ#1
Love your desk, love you book stand & love you cat so cute!! Have a great week Debs x
Those stands are really clever!! They look ever so complicated to me....but then I'm a klutz when it comes to anything involving paper!! The Lily paper is beautiful, I can see why it's a recurrent theme for you.
Yoda is soooo snugly, bless him :)
Hugs, LLJ 37 xxxx
We bought a pipette for dribbling paint down art journal pages but we didn't dilute the paint enough and had clumps instead.
Hello Yoda peeking out of your hidey hole.
Oh, and Horace blogged on Monday so he's resting today, :)
Love all your stands and storage that you have decorated. Your card is gorgeous too. Happy WOYWW Gill x #82
Hi Eliza and Yoda (if you are awake!) thank you for popping by! I love the idea of a card stand for photos. That one looks like a little arm chair! Cute. I might have to make myself one of those! Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 92

I love he window your desk is in front of...I must have a window. Darling cat and card. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Sweet, your cat is called Yoda! He is lovely - so cute! I just want to skritch his little head.
Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving your nice comment. The paper on the book covers is made by Cavallini Papers.
I like your little book stand - it's a great idea to use it as a way of displaying your cards. I also love how you've decorated your storage stuff with paper - so pretty.
Cute butterflies, and your stand will be beautiful when it's finished.
And Yoda does not look impressed that you interrupted his nap :-)
Hugs
Debs #75
Yay! you were right - about the drawers, found the desk, found the heat gun, one happy bunny here!1
I am in love with your cat! Tickles under his jaw from me......

Like to see how the journal page turns out.

I was thinking, hairless cat, what’s she talking about, Yoda has a long straggly coat……….then I realised it wasn’t the cat at all, Lol. Such a cute photo of your little man all snuggled up, bless.
Lave the card stand, just perfect for when you’re taking pictures of your work.
Thanks for stopping by this week and
Happy Crafting!

Hi Eliza
I'm running late but thanks for stopping by my desk. My guest has arrived early and is staying in my art room so no WOYWW for me next week. Love the little stands...I shall have to have a look for them in Spotlight next time I go to town. Love the card too. Hope we get to see your journal page next week :o). Eliza your room is larger then mine and full of tresures...I loved being in there so much...even thinking about it makes me smile. You are always welcome here in my art room Eliza though I think my lack of organization to your tidy room would drive you nuts LOL
hugs
Annette # 83
Oh little Yoda is cute. He definitely has a wonderful place to snuggle in!
Your stands are great! I love the papers so am glad that you said what they are (hmm, must go back and read because I've already forgotten). They will be a great way to display your favorite cards and take photos.
I'm finally getting around. My ISP upgraded some software and that caused a delay - but I'm here!!!!
Thanks for visiting me.
Happy WOYWW
