WOYWW

A quiet WOYWW this week, kids are back at school!  Even though it is still pretty hot there are obvious signs of Autumn, the mountains are starting to change colour from green into reds, oranges and yellows, so pretty but so early!  The weather man says the change is due to the shorter days and not the temperature, there, question answered!

This week I am trying to categorize my stamps to make it easier to find the ones I need! I am starting with my Whimsy ones as  they are the ones I have most of.  

 My work in progress this week, colouring an image ready for tomorrow's project..... 

and the wildlife pic of the week......

a little baby moose staring through the window of my greenhouse room. You can just make out another ear behind him, that is his brother.  There were 2 babies and their Mom on my front lawn!

If you haven't come across WOYWW yet, pop on over to Julia's blog for more details on how to join in!

WOYWW

As you can actually almost see my desk this week thought I would try to join with WOYWW!

I am still in chaos with the unpacking etc but trying to sort out my craft room this week.  Hoping that the day I get to create again won't be too far away!  

For those who don't know, we moved into our new house a couple of weeks ago and are simultaneously trying to decorate the whole house and unpack and get settled in!  Not an easy task.  We managed the top floor the week before we moved in so that was the easy part, decorating once furniture and boxes are in not so easy!  

 My storage is different in this room as my last craft room had a large built in cupboard so I had to get some more storage cubes.  Next, I need to get a second desk which hopefully you will see in action next week.  I like to keep my laptop and printer off my creating desk as I need as much space as possible especially for layouts.  

Not sure that this cupboard fits in here.  My new desk will be white and will sit alongside it so I am contemplating painting it white to fit in better.  My only concern is it has a very distressed finish which I am not sure will suit a white look.  

 Have to show you who else lives in our new house!  This is Mom and baby raccoons! Not managing to get good pictures so far as they only come out when it is almost dark. They are living in our roof but the space they occupy isn't over the main part of the house thankfully, I did hear them one night when I got up to see to our dog and they are noisy, sounded like we had a couple of bears up there!

Looking forward to having a catch up with the WOYWW girls on my tea and coffee breaks, at least I am getting breaks now, the past couple of weeks I have been eating and drinking on the run!

Maybe in the next couple of weeks I will get a moment to create something!

New blog!

No creating done this weekend so far, weather has been too nice to stay indoors! The garden is getting the attention this week!

If you like to see photos like this one I have just launched my photographic blog which you can see here I will be adding many more photos of animals and scenes!

Hope you are all having a great weekend!

Thanks for visiting!

Red Panda and RAK

One of the reasons for my internet absence over the weekend. We went off to see this gorgeous creature on saturday! It is a red panda, they are so cute and we were lucky to be there during feeding time! They live at the Highland Wildlife Park near Kingussie in Scotland so if you are ever near, it is so worth a visit. They do such fantastic work there!

I have tons more great photos but I will start up a new wildlife blog as soon as I get some time.

I got this fabulous RAK delivered over the weekend from Bernie of CraftyB!

Thank you so much Bernie, it is all fabulous stash, I love it all and can't wait to use it! The papers are gorgeous and I don't have any of them so you can imagine the oohs and ahhs when I started looking through them!

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend, it was amazing that we in the Uk did so well with our Bank Holiday weather! It was so lovely to see the kids out in their summer clothes yesterday!
