My first photo is from the desk I was doing some watercolor backgrounds and tiny tags using chalk. The manila tag has the flower stencil done with gesso and waiting to be colored. I been wanting to do more water coloring, but every time I get distracted with "Life".
My crafty desk is full of tiny little things to color. Julia has been playing with Tim Holtz's BIRDS and I've had them stashed away and never opened. She really got me motivated on this. And I loved working with his rubber stamps, so very easy to clean up and the tiny accessories die cut great. Now will color and put together for some fun cards. Loving the little green pick, it helped a lot with the die cuts.
Also in the background I was working with some rubber stamps I won and never got them attached to the sticky backing to use. I love the girl image and the aqua was a pretty background. Just disappointed I could not photo these better.
Here it is Thursday and after putting in some time I was able to download my photos from my camera, so these are the same photos as above just bigger. It's been a computer battle, but I'm a bit happier today.
I did make a post on my Springtime in Paris ATC swap HERE if you are interested. Only 2 have stopped by to view it. It was the last thing I've been able to download.
We actually were blessed with some sunshine today. It's been at least 4 days. of cold, damp, windy, rain and fog. Here's hoping things your way are filled with Sunshine and happy moments.
Thanks for stopping by.

I hate it when my computer doesn't do what I want it to! I'm too old to deal with it any more...Love your desk and it looks like there is quite a bit of creativity going on!
You sound more techno savvy than me - I'm fine when things are going ok but not so good when the gremlins get going! At least you worked out how to get some pics up even if they're not what you wanted. Good luck with the crazy birds, it's funny how they have taken off!

oh no, computer problems... hope you can sort it soon. Like LLJ says, I am ok when they work.. Have a good week (if you can!) Helen #1
Oo la la - that Paris ATC is beautiful! x Jo
Hi Sylvia. Computers!!! Love 'em, hate 'em - so useful, but such frustration when things aren't going as they should. Do trust it all gets sorted soon for you.
Your Paris ATCs are beautiful - the colours are gorgeous. Well done.
Take care. God bless.

I still have some missing files on my new computer, too, Sylvia. Not sure I'll ever find them again. Already had to recreate one Silhouette design that I couldn't recover. Ugh! Sounds like you've been busy - with stuff that is fun and some that is not so fun. Such is life.
Those birds are addictive once you get started. I love them so much that I've ordered the mini stamp sets (not the dies yet though). Have fun with them. Sarah #13
Oh goodness, computers can be very handy but sometimes... so frustrating then. Happy to hear you found a way to download the photos from your camera. Could it be that the sd-card of your camera is a little damaged? I had something like that a little while ago. Wishing you the best, xx
I'm glad you could take new (bigger) photos so I could have a good look... the tags are just awesome! All those colors make me smile - it's a grey and rainy morning here so it's fun to start my day with seeing colors! Have a great weekend, love from Holland! Marit #23
Ah Sylvia, I'm very late, but I hope that doesn't matter! Am amazed and feel a responsibility for being your motivation! I hope you've had fun with htem really - at the very least that they've taken your mind of the computer issues, oh my word you need the patience of a saint and it's just the pits when you have to fix it by yourself! Strength to you gal! xx
Hi, Sylvia!!! Sounds like you've got some fun crafting going on! You've got me curious on your 'little green pick' you're using with dies...don't think I know what that is but I do struggle with die cuts sometimes! Your ATC's on the previous post (I think) turned out awfully pretty. You mentioned working on envelopes for them...I wondered what size they were. I should know...I think it's a standard size...just curious. We have a lovely weekend here in Indiana...sunshine ALL WEEKEND LONG...and very mild temps. I'm SO ready for it! Hope the weather man is kind to you, too, my dear! Take care!
