As my son or daughter would say.. this week's post for
What's on Your Workdesk, now famous by way of the tv,( allegedly mentioned by Dyan on QVC!!) probably is an epic fail! I am supposed to show you my desk , and all its glory or in my case, all its downfall, but I haven't used it, and the mess piling up on it is far too much for me to show you!! So in order for me to join in here is a picture of my desk at the Stitches trade show where I was lucky enough to join in a retailers workshop with the Duke of Distress, and his assistant the Queen of journaling... Tim Holtz and Dyan Reaveley. It was very busy and fun filled afternoon, and for the first time ever I had my photo taken with him!
Here is what we made.. lots of techniques and ooh the new distress pens :))
For those of you who kindly asked last week, here is the
link on how to make my little porcelain rose.
Now I am off to check out some of the desks in this week's woyww hosted by the delectable Julia.
Have a very happy what's on your Workdesk Wednesday

Lucky you! I watched a bit of Craft day on QVC but gave in and ordered Sir Tim's book in the end. But I do ate the "sold out, move on" mentality.
Have a great one.

You lucky girl having a pic taken with Sir Timmie, it looks great I bet you had lots of laughs, have a great week, Hugs May x x x x
How great is that picture! And you got to play with those lovely distress pens!! The rumor is true, I was watching QVC UK online and Dyan was asked if Tim was popular in the UK and she said half the desks on WOYWW have his picture somewhere. #15
Congrats on being number 1 this week. I think this is a PERFECT desk to show. And that tag with the butterflies is beyond beautiful. I can't wait to see those Distress pens in real life.
OOPS, I forgot to mention, I am #9 this week!

Congrats on #1 and the pic with HRH TH. thanks for the link for the roses. Absolutely gorgeous butterfly project.
I met him at CHA in Chicago last year and I am still in awe of his amazing talent. Lucky you to do a class with him.
Happy WOYWW, by the way, your desk can not possibly be worse than mine!
It's a great pic, isnt he a gem for never getting bored of the pics! Love the piece you made in the workshops...specially as it started out looking like you were heating up sweety wrappers!!
I got to touch and play with some distress markers on Sunday so can share your joy this week.

Number one, get you!
I saw Dyan on QVC and she certainly broadcast WOYWW to the crafting world!
Lucky you being at stitches. I must say I'm not hugely into TH but I would like to learn more, maybe I need to come and see you one day.
Hope you enjoyed meeting up with Judi the other weeked? I met her in London at the end of January with Kirsty.

Lucky you getting to work with Tim and those beautiful products.
Those pens certainly look like fun looking forward to getting hold of some.I'll be watching The Artistic Stamper closely ! Great workdesk projects love the butterflies x

Drop by become a follower and leave a comment for a chance to win. Vickie #173
You are one lucky lady. I would love to meet Mr Tim. I love everything Tim and just received my first 2 sets of the distress markers. So it doesn't matter where your desk is. You got to work with a genius.
Beautiful, beautiful!!! Those distress pens look like such fun! :) And what a picture to treasure!!!!
I am still working my way round the blogs this week, doing better than last week, I must say. You are so lucky meeting all those people and seeing all those lovely new things for us to play with. I do have to agree with scrappystickyinkymess about the "Oh it's sold out, move on" mentality. I know they are in the business of selling, but if we could see the demos to the natural end, we might be more willing to buy it when it appears next time. I hate the way they cut us off instantly. Have a good week. xx Maggie #11
I'm not seeing the desk I can only see Tim Holtz lol
