I am posting this one early this week as tomorrow I will be off doing voluntary electrical work for the charity group all day and I don't want to miss out on joining in on the fun. What a week it has been for me it feels like I have been in a whirlpool going around and around and I can't get out. We have had a long weekend here in Australia to celebrate the Queens Birthday well in Victoria the state I live in anyway. So this means more work for me and gosh have I been busy. I had to go back to the recycle place and get some more supplies like spray bottles as we needed more. Dede and I did manage to play and create some more watercolour sprays, see off to the top left of the shot a whole shoe box full of sprays now, so I am one happy camper.
Then of course we had to test them. We made some tags and fiddled with colours, I am happy with the end results as you can see, I added some of the modelling paste we made the week before and that has been drying overnight. I topped up some of the areas with the distress pads, where would we all be without distress products they are a real saving grace.
For those that have missed the daylight window shot here it is, overcast and winter cold outside. At least my window desk is neat and tidy.

LOOK AT ME AUNTIE JULIA
A PHOTO JUST FOR YOU |
Yoda has been in bed all day so I snapped a shot of him there, isn't he a cutie wearing his badge. He dressed up for Auntie Julia, he is even smiling. Check out those whiskers he never had any when he first arrived here, they are super long now.
Just when I was wrapping up the post some happy mail arrived and I nearly forgot some that arrived the other day too.

The other day I sent a thank you through to the wrong Helen regarding the JOFY ATC, I so love JOFY thanks Helen then the other Helen said it wasn't hers, hers had a heart on it and some bits enclosed too well that one literally has just arrived, so I had to extend this post sorry Julia. Wow I love that one too and all the extras thank you so much. Ros A sent this beautiful card along with her lovely ATC, the card has so many layers it is such a high quality card and so beautiful too. Thank you Ros
That's it for me for today a longer post than intended, I always try and keep them short but hell it never happens.
Happy WOYWW everyone if you don't know by now what I am referring too then pop on over to
Julia's blog and read all about it, it is called the
Stamping Ground.
Hugs Eliza & Yoda

Happy WOYWW! Those sprays look like they will be well used! Are they just watercolor paint and water? Yoda looks so well behaved and pleased with the WOYWW badge. I've got some meowing in my blog today as well.

What lovely things you have received, Eliza. So many extras, too. Fabulous gifts.
Have a great week - when you say "winter cold" what sort of temperatures are you down to? Just thinking of my aunt and uncle who live there in Melbourne...

Wow, you have been super busy. Your craft room is full of wonderful spray-y goodness, too. I just made some new myself, so you can check it out tomorrow, if you like.
Yoda looks so happy. I have tried to get Bleubeard to let me take some photos of him, but he seems to resist the camera. The more I try, the more he hides. So glad Yoda is photogenic and even smiles for the camera.
Thanks for visiting me already this Woyww.
I'm in the same whirlwind ! See you have a 17th Dec birthday I follow on the 18th ..Lots of fun photos, ATC's and the pretty Yoda. Have a wonderful week, thanks for stopping by no linky but outside is calling me..perfect weather here and it creates many out door events.
Making your own sprays saves SO MUCH on supplies it is crazy!! Once I figured it out I went crazy making them.
Looks like you did too LOL, with beautiful effects.
Catch up with what's going on with Julia through LLJ Here:

Hi to you both, Yoda looks comfy, desk looks ultra tidy (at rest) and I love the stands your cards are on, very useful.
I'm guessing you will have heard about Julia by now LLJ has the info.
Happy crafting, Angela @Felix the Crafty Cat http://angelacuttingandcarving.blogspot.co.uk/
Loads of interest on your desk.
I just adore Yoda.

Hi Eliza and happy WOYWW...if you didn't know Julia is in hospital and Jan at LLJ has all the details - we can keep this crazy thing going and pray that our dear Julia is on the mend soon. I love that you make your own sprays and it sure looks like Dede and you have had a great time. Bit cool up here in QLD too - I've had to dig out the trackie and slippers. Cheers and hope you have a great week RobynO
A lovely tidy desk, and happy mail. Life is good!! I am a spray junkie too. Just itch to get my hands in them. Love your Yoda phoda LOL. Keep smiling and creating
Am loving those brightly coloured tags...those watercolour sprays have been a good find! Hope you had fun doing your charity work too....Yoda's looks very smug indeed!
Sorry this is late, it's been a heck of a worrying few days.
Hugs, LLJ xxxx
Love the ink cards, would like to learn how to make them! I spied an awesome cop of coffee on your desk, too. Yoda is smiling!. Can you give his checks a rub for me?
