Tag and envelope ready to go postal, Yes I have deliberately blotted out the receivers name, ha ha...... I know you see my blog..... had to show something for my weeks work.
The bay window has a few things in it, the garden still awaits my service to finish off the front, not much more to go, that came to a halt rather fast due to health, the clivia's have finished their flowering spurt and I have roses everywhere in bloom.A friend from the charity work dropped in with some material for me to use. Seriously I can't get my act together so what in the blue blazes am I going to do with more upholstery material, probably journals, been wanting to do some for ages now.
My bestie had a birthday on Sunday gone but have not caught up with her yet, been under the weather and zero energy, hence why my desk is full of crap, just can't seem to bust this bug, it is nasty. Can't talk on the phone no voice, I squeeeeeek like a mouse. She doesn't need my germs.
Oh and some happy mail came at the end of last week, a beautiful journal from Judy, the pages inside are so perfect for crafting and I have wanted a journal this size for ages. Now to actually put things in it..... I might have to work up some courage before trashing the journal.
For the Yoda lovers of the world, he is not happy today he had his ears, eyes and a bath, he has done a runner, snapped this photo last night when he was snuggling in his blanket with me. Do you like how his legs are crossed, he does it all the time. Such a snuggle puss.Want to see more desks then go and visit Julia at the Stamping Ground she can explain how to link up and join in on the fun.
Hugs and happy crafting to all

Just been to Strathalbyn.Fun shopping and lunching.
Take Care.Get well soon.

Poor Yoda! Hate it when they do a runner! Love your tag you used to cover the addy on your envelope. AS for more fabric, that would do my head in as I dont sew! #4
Hope you get rid of your germs soon and Yoda forgives you... Love the desk, the journal looks gorgeous. Helen 2
Hope you soon feel much better, Eliza. No fun when you have time off and no energy to enjoy it!!
Gorgeous fabric - but I too would be pushed to know what to do with upholstery fabric - other than upholstery, that is!
Take care. God bless.

Poor you, you really are under the weather. Hope it is not that Flat Susan wore you out with all the trips and things you took her on it really was a journey - a chapter in itself. Thank you.
Love your tag - the same image as my door hanger on my craft room.
Poor Yoda, still a guy as important as he is has to have the occasional clean up session. Hope he is back now and snuggling up to you - that will make you both feel so much better
Hugs, Neet 29'ish
Have fun with the fabric - have you seen the book 15 minutes play? Have a look. Might be just the thing for your stash.
Oh blast. another word verification I could just about manage the number but the letters always take me thee or more tries and playing them as sound is even worse. I may have to give up in the end. One more go...
Happy WOYWW!

Poor you feeling so grotty...there are some weird bugs and viruses going around here too :-(. Hope the rest helps and you're back to normal (!!) again very soon.
Love that journal that Judy sent you...be brave and dive in, she'd much rather you use it for anything than leave it pristine...honest!
Hugs, LLJ 28 xxx
I love the view from your window...I spend a great deal of time gazing out my window on the world and love to see what is going on outside.

G'day Eliza. Happy WOYWW. Oh no I hope you feel better soon. What a gorgeous tag...I REALLY like your tags and I am so glad I have one too...I'm still finding a nice spot for the cogs you cut for me...thank you again for those too. Yoda is gorgeous
hugs Annette In Oz #12
Poor Eliza, hope you feel better soon. Your desk looks all ready for some play when you are feeling better.
Poor Yoda, having to have a bath, I have never had to bath current cat, suspect neither of us would survive.
Hope he forgives you soon and comes foa a cuddle.

The recipient of that tag is a lucky person, because it's beautiful. BTW, you and Yoda have a great view from your studio. Happy WOYWW and Blessings!
Hi Eliza and Yoda of course! love! love! love! the tag, more of my favourite stamps, I seem to have lots of those but there are some that you do come back to more often than others and they are real fun stamps.
Have a great week and happy crafting, Angela x34
So sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. Crafting is such good therapy for ails you, but it's so hard to get moving when you're sick! Have a nice nap and snuggle with your sweet Yoda!!!
Happy Crafting!

Hi Eliza, and ear scritches to Yoda. He does look snuggly, and they always look so amusing lying with their fore paws crossed!Love the tag, and the envelope art. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #14 xxx
Lovely organised space and super tags - love them. Thanks for sharing. Hope that you have a lovely crafting week to come. Hazel, WOYWW #55 x
Hugs to you and Yoda, hoping you shake off that bug really quickly. The tags look great so, although you feel rough, it doesn't look like your mojo has gone. Hope the second half of the week is better than the first. Hugs, Chris # 24
hello and sorry to read you are poorly - you sound really down. Love the tag. Hope you feel better soon. Hope Yoda forgives you. Hugs Anne x #18
Sorry to hear you are not feeling well! But that tag turned out very nicely! And Yoda is always a darling!
Cheers

I love how you decorated the envelope! I'm always a bit concerned that if overdecorate it, it won't get delivered. It's silly, I know. I've tried blending colour pencils with baby oil, but it didn't work for me. I just got oil all over it and the colours didn't blend. I must have done it wrong. Yoda's soooo cute!
Sorry, forgot my number! #32!
Lovely post, Eliza, and I adore that tag with the matching envelope! Aww poor old Yoda! He does look a bit put out. Poor little Beatrice is being shut in the bathroom all day tomorrow with her litter tray of special granules as my hubby has to get another urine sample out of her to take to the vet's now she's completed the latest course of antibiotics. Last time she held out for 2 days without going, and then peed on the floor, rendering the small sample my hubby was able to collect useless as it was full of dust and muck of the floor lol!! What a norty girl.
Hope you feel better soon. I've felt c**p all week and worse today after a really stressful run-in with my utterly selfish mum this a.m. Thank goodness for a lovely hubby who acts as buffer and Hug Provider On Demand lol!!
Happy WOYWW,
Shoshi #30
Hope you get to feeling better soon! Maybe you need to join Yoda a bit more for a while. Happy WOYWW!

Well your tag and envie are adorable, so you do have something to show--I didn't get ANYTHING finished this week!
Give Yoda his chic rub for me, please, and happy woyww to you!

#56 this week with
a new old stamp set
Fab tag! Adorable Yoda all sacked out. Hugs to from afar no germs please. ;) Do hope you'll be feeling better and back to crafty things soon. Hugs and Happy WOYWW! Nan G #48 tpThe Girls send snuggles to Yoda. :)
Just to be able to grab a screen shot - not WORD verification but number one. I prefer this one as I almost never have trouble seeing what the numbers are. With the word one, one word is always clear, the other is ALWAYS very difficult to identify the letters.
If everyone did the number verification I would be totally happy :) And a bunch of people said "Oh I don't have it" but I see it - which makes me think wordpress bloggers (or maybe even any non-google logged in viewer) see it no matter what.
I'll grab the screen shot and email it to you so you can see that it IS here and I'm not crazy. Well, I may be crazy but thats a different issue....

Lovely picture of Yoda in the material ... Perhaps you could put pictures of Yoda in the journal like a scrapbook !

Yoda looks so cute in all that material

Thanks for your return visit, Yoda, and for your very encouraging remarks!! I'm sure I'll soon get back on track design wise, and I'm not too worried - one can't dismiss one's whole talent on the basis of a couple of minor blips, after all. I KNOW what I can do because of past record, and there's no reason why that should suddenly depart permanently, is there!! Anyway, thanks for helping me keep in track.
My problems aren't helped at the moment by my 93-yr-old mum being extremely difficult and creating a lot of stress. I had a very bad day yesterday and felt terrible so didn't achieve anything at all creative-wise.

Late! So sorry you arent feeling great, it's such a waste of time. And I think if you're feeling a bit crappy, even your favourite spaces get on your nerves and don't inspire. From here your desk looks ripe and ready. And I'm not buying the baby oil story, looks conveniently like Gin to me.
Hi Eliza! Happy Belated WOYWW! I'm so sorry to hear that you are feeling poorly! In spite of that, your post was oodles of fun! I love your neat desk, the awesome tag card, the gift journal and, of course, sweet Yoda!! I hope you are feeling better soon!! Hugs, Darnell #66
Thanks for your lovely comment about my album, Eliza. I'm very pleased with how it's going, but I'm going to have to cut back on the textures from now on because the book is getting really thick, and if I'm not careful it won't close! When I first completed the book construction I thought I'd given myself loads of leeway but it's amazing how quickly it thickens up.

I have been having awful trouble with my blog it would not let me link anything to it.. Its finally fixed now and can pop up about Flat Susan.. She will be off to Spain next week and she has had a great time here with lots of family things going on.. I loved your tag on your desk its wonderful, Pats to Yoda..
Sandy :)
Well I'm sending you a weekend hug Eliza and hope you're feeling better and pulled yourself out of the doldrums. It grabs me now and again especially when hubbys away in stretches..like now, I am supposed to be inserting pages in my Christmas cards - my envelopes are addressed so you'd think I'd just get on with it all and they'd be ready for posting tomorrow but I'm dithering - lets both shake ourselves and put on the music. Cheers happy late WOYWW Robyn
