What's on Your Workdesk? Wednesday #287

Good morning everyone and welcome to WOYWW!  For those of you still in the dark about this little Wednesday get together, I take a photo of my space and blog about it then I link to Julia's blog.  Julia is the owner and creator of this happy gathering of crafters and each Wednesday we participate in this world wide blog hop.  As we grow nearer to Christmas, you are apt to see all kinds of beautiful creations in the making from all over the world!  So come join us for this little bit of madness!  And I say that is most loving way; I've become so addicted to this blog hop that I don't know where I would be on Wednesday without being a part of this!


There are new dies in the house!  These are from a set from Anna Griffin called Fretwork!  Can I just say this is the first cut of these dies and I love them.  I can envision beautiful cards made with these and today I will play!  I've just recently become re-acquainted with Anna Griffin and I'm finding such elegant embossing folders and dies.  I'm so excited to get these and to play with them.  I see a lot of cards using these in the near future!

OK that's it for me this morning...I'm off to visit as many of the participating blogs as I can.  It's always a foot race to see how many I can visit but I never seem to get to everyone.  I keep changing my tactics but I struggle each and every week and never seem to make it all the way through.  But I do keep trying!

Oh what fun you'll have with these. A nice size assortment too. Enjoy WOYWW, working on packaging to send overseas (not my favorite job) Christmas decor, and a list. I hadn't even realized it was Wed. today.

What beautiful dies these are. So unusual too. I have seen some of her flower dies, they are also great. Have fun playing with them. #24

Loving the look of these amazing Dies.
Cant wait to see what you do with those you have cut.
Did not know Anna Griffen did Dies, must go have a look. I have lots of her papers that I bring out, stroke, admire and rerun to the shelf.
Happy crafting

I too just became re-acquainted with Anna Griffin. I purchased her designer Cuttlebug from HSN (home shopping network), and I also purchased a collection of dies and embossing folders to go along with it. I don't have the collection you have but now after seeing it in action I might just have to pop online to see who has the best price for it! :D
Look forward to seeing your desk next week...
Hugs for now,
