WOYWW 263 - BETTER LATE THAN NEVER

 Hi everyone, sorry I have been on the road working for the last week and seriously I have had no time for even surfing the net and checking in on anyone.  My daughters best friend celebrated her 18th Birthday and this is the card that I made for her.

Below is some happy mail from Cardarian, Brigita, Patsy, Darnell & Diane Baker, gosh Darnell even sent an ATC for Yoda he was so happy to have his own mail.  Thank you ladies I did really plan to email you all privately but I have had no time until today.









Also below is a shot of the desk as it stands tonight, I had a marathon day with my bestie and we made up card sets 5 sets with 6 cards in each and all different.  I didn't take any photos but I am sure Dede will when she gets the time.  She left only an hour ago and was exhausted.  We did have fun, I got some new stamping up toys to play with too.

This is the shot of the desk with a little aftermath of playing, it still needs sorting but I am wanting to get this post out and then race off and eat dinner.

Yoda has been missing most of the day, I gave him a sponge bath with the baby wipes and he was not impressed, he is a dirty little man, so he is hiding under DD's bed thinking I will give him a full on bath, which could still be on the cards. LOL  I even tried to coax him out with some cheese so his mouse is eating it instead.

Yoda put on the show for Julia last week but sadly she was taken ill, so for Julia I am posting this photo again as Yoda wants to make sure you see it, he is really proud of himself. Julia I do hope you are feeling much better and glad to be home in your own bed recuperating.  You had a lot of people really worried, please take care and rest.

Now if you don't know by now what the WOYWW desk blog hop is all about then you are missing out on some fun, go here and check it out.










So hopefully you will all forgive me for being late and I will try and visit as many of you as I can tonight and tomorrow night hopefully if I get internet access at work.

Hugs to all Eliza & Yoda

Yes better late than never, so glad to "see" you and Mr. Yoda, he DOES look proud of his fancy fine badge!

I've missed woyww-ing these last few weeks--it really is nice to catch up with my "imaginary" friends! (That's what my children call my bloggy friends!)

The card you made is gorgeous - I love the bunting - I bet your daughter's friend loved it. Thanks so much for stopping by my desk, I hope you have a great week - it sounds like it could be fun getting Yoda cleaned up and bathed!

Hi Eliza, I knew you were there but had to go out and meet some old workmates today so catching up with visits now. Yoda is certainly a prince among cats.
Thank you for stopping by at mine.
You mentioned about the Masterboards. We don't exactly have them in this country other than the few people like myself who have started making them.
I first saw them in an American magazine by Somerset. All you need is paper and any medium that you like and off you go, though most people do tend to include stamping on them.
Have a great weekend and happy crafting, Angela x #45

I decided that better late then never was my new slogan. I also decided after missing a whole month of WOYWW I would post when I remembered that way I was always there!!! Beautiful cards and ATC's Yoda looks happy!! Thanks for visiting my desk! Vickie #19...first link was wrong is why there were two!

Hello Eliza. Goodness, what a day with DeDe. And folk have been thinking that I have achieved a lot this week - your room must have been positively burning up with all that activity!
Thanks for visiting - and for your prayers for John. I have been so very encouraged by all the wonderful promises of perayer for him. He has been very ill indeed, but is feeling somewhat better- and we even managed to get out to our church midweek lunch yesterday (Thursday). Tomorrow we go over to Mrs D, and are having lunch with her and Mr D. Then playtime for we girls, while the menfolk either snooze or watch Tv...
Have a great rest of week.

Fabulous card! Love the bright colours! I bet she liked it.
Yoda is looking very pleased with himself - a great pic.
Thanks for dropping by too.

Your space is very busy and it's never to late to join in woyww. Lol at giving yoda a bath with baby wipes I guess that's what we look forward to with our kitties hugs Nikki 6

Lunch Lady Jan said...

That's such a great card, hope she liked it! Hope you have a bit more time to yourself this week...sounds like you've been mad busy.
Thank you for the thought about the wool, but you're right, it doesn't make economic sense sending it. However, I get there'd be a charity or old folks place that would be happy to take the stash off your hands. At least it'll be used then and it'll free up your cupboards.....win-win situation!!
Hugs, LLJ 29 xx

Eliza, thanks for visiting me, Max did stop me from vacuuming, I didn't dare try to get the machine out.
Poor Yoda, not surprised he is hiding from any sort of bath, so would Max.
Loved that card, bunting is so special, it just seems to lift a card.
Well done

Darnell said...

Hi Eliza! Sorry I'm so late myself with visiting. Thank you for stopping by my place and for the shoutout. I'm so glad Yoda loved his special little ATC. His photo is so princely!!

And my goodness, girl, what a marathon craft session you had with DeDe! Thirty cards is a lot!! Kayla will treasure the superb card you made for her special birthday!!

Happy Belated WOYWW and enjoy the weekend! Hugs, Darnell

Ohhh Snap said...

Yoda is so handsome! Love that he got his own mail lol. Thanks to your comment I'll be sharing some of my Tim Holtz sale booty in a random act of kindness during a future WOYWW : ). Keep a weather eye open! #51

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

I take it you've been gone again. I am not playing in WOYWW this week, but wanted to stop by and see what you were up to. That's a beautiful card, and I'm always impressed to read about your card making marathons.

Of course, the real reason I came was because Bleubeard wanted to say hi to Yoda (can we call him Mr. Clean?), and I wanted to thank you beyond belief for visiting me so many times, even when I was so busy, I couldn't find my head even when it was attached to my body. You have NO idea how much your continued support and encouragement means to both Bleubeard and me, even when I don't take (or have) time to let you know.
