My desk top cutting strips to make a masterboard
The finished products. I will cut them into 3x3 squares to make Inkbox cards for a daily January theme of "Winter" at the Collage ArT Collective. There are to the left. I usually post also to Instagram (love the short posts there) and Facebook. I finished up the Rolodex cards for December. I enjoy working on "Tiny" spaces. The Weekly Collage in a bigger form with special weekly prompts seem time consuming to me as I look to long for the items to work with. I hope to go back to making journals.
Of course if you want to visit more desks, head over to Ms. Julia's HERE at STAMPING GROUND lots of fun spots.
Apologies for no visits last week, we left to have breakfast, shop and get ready for forecast of ICE storms, high winds. Here in country if we lose electricity we have no water, so bottle up for our use. He has to do special things for the Cattle and their little ones. Thank goodness most of it didn't happen, delayed out each day for about a 5 days and we ended up with Tuesday rain, 34 degrees turned to ice covered yards, but winds missed us so trees were all ok. No road travels were advised.
Then I ended up with Vertigo and did nothing but be in darkness and quietness. I am anxious to travel !!! Seems calm today, it's still dark here at 6 a m.
Thanks for stopping by;

Happy New Year Sylvia! I’m really glad that the predicted bad weather wasn’t as horrendous as you’d anticipated, thank goodness. I do like the strips you’ve made for the masterboard and the collage is fab! Sorry you’ve had vertigo though, I get it and it sucks. Hope you’re feeling better soon.

Hi Sylvia, makin g Masterboards with strips of paper is one of my favourites as I just can't resist keeping left-over bits and this encourages me to uise them up. Hope you're feeling better and the weather picks up. Have a lovely New Year woyww. Hugs Angela x10x
Very busy desks! You always make such lovely creations!
Glad to hear the weather wasn't as awful as expected Sylvia and hope the vertigo has eased. Loving the new backgrounds. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #1
You poor thing, vertigo is awful - I really hope you feel better. Love the work in progress on your desk. Happy New Year and Happy WOYWW. Love & God Bless, Caro xx (#15)
Happy New Year. Am so sorry you’ve had vertigo, it is quite the most horrid thing isn’t it, and such a waste of precious time. I loved the Rolodex challenge, and am loving your 3 x 3s too, fascinating to see them on FB, and your reasoning behind keeping to the smaller challenge sizes makes so much sense to me; I can waste hours trying to get placements right on a 12 x 12 page so I would be useless and keeping up with anything but the smaller challenges, that was a real light bulb moment for me, thanks! Hope the weather continues to not deliver the gloom expected, you’ve had it cold and bad enough over there now. Freezing yards sounds absolutely lethal.
I'm glad the worst of the weather missed you but sorry you have been suffering vertigo, I've not had it myself but know friends who have. I miss my Christmas lights now they're down. hope you have a creative week with your journals! Helen #2
I am glad the bad weather missed you and hope it continues to do so. Sorry you have vertigo ,mit is most unpleasant. Happy WOYWW. Angela #19
Good to hear the weather wasn't as bad as predicted but you have to be prepared - it must be hard. And yes, the darkness, will be glad when the days get a bit longer - we are on our way! Looks like you've been busy on the craft front as well, love the mini page you've done. Happy New Year, have a good week, love n hugs Cindy xx #11
Thanks for your visit earlier.
Your weather sounds awful, living in the middle of a large city in the middle of the country we seem to escape a lot of extreme weather, but I do feel for you.
Love all the work going on on your desk.
Hope you are both fully recovered soon
Take care

Life on a farm sounds like there is a lot of work to be done all the time and little time to think of yourselves when you have the animals and their offspring to take care of.
So sorry you had an attack of vertigo, not pleasant.
Glad you managed to get some crafting done - my good wishes for the New Year ahead.
hugs, Neet 3 xx
Loving your masterboard and January project, I too like little spaces to work on. BJ#14
