Well, our thoughts are with both Julia and with Jan who has lost her father. He sounded to be a lovely gentleman. Thinking of you and your family Jan and also sending love to Julia who is recovering from major surgery.
Nothing of great note to show you although I started doing some journalling using some magazines I got via Ebay a while ago. My friend Paul came up on Friday last and gave me a quick lesson on how to do this different kind of journalling from what I have done in the past. I had already made a start with Wendy when I went to her house a few weeks ago but as I uploaded the page I did with Paul on Annie's Friday Smile I have nothing to show you.
Well, that is apart from some lovely post I got this week - more atc's! I am sure I got three but can only see two at the moment so apologies if there should be three. Here they are - from
top - Lynne in Canada and
bottom - Dolores who used to live in Slovenia. Thank you ladies, both are beautiful and are now going to go in my album with the others.
This week has seen me cutting out images, both stamped and from magazines in the evening (so I will have something to do during July when the house will be turned upside down) but the daytime has been spent packing up things from the kitchen cupboards as we are having a new kitchen fitted at the beginning of July. I cannot wait. But oh what a lot of stuff one has in a kitchen - we have run out of boxes and when we get some more I do not know where we are going to put it all but I think my craft room will be a temporary kitchen!!!
You came to see the desk though so here is a different shot than usual (normal one is pretty bare)
Hope they cheer you all up as much as they cheer me each morning.
Now it is time to visit Jan and see what her song is today and then proceed to link yourself and follow that with a nose around one or two desks.
Sending love to Julia again just because it is a Wednesday.
See you around folks!

How lovely to see the roses now they are open. glad they are still making you happy :) I'm the same as you back here, ripping through magazines and stamps and cutting them out. Plus I've been making a few colourful backgrounds too. Someday, I'll sit down and collage them all together lol. P xx

What great ATC's! And your flowers are stunning! Thanks for sharing. Glenda #33
Beautiful roses and love the pic of the ATC's. I feel for you having to find space for all the stuff that fits so neatly in cupboards. Can't wait to see your lovely new kitchen.

Hi Neet, gorgeous roses, aren't they? I did start a catalogue once before, but fell behind and lost track, so intend to keep this one up to date! It's been a wonderful journey, this WOYWW, and as you say, getting to meet people in real life is awesome. Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #5 xxx
Gorgeous ATCs and roses, Neet! Don't even get me started on how much stuff we accumulate over the years. Last year, when we thought we were moving I got rid of truckloads of stuff, but some of it seems to have come back! There's never enough room to put stuff and the minute you throw something away, you will need it! Happy WOYWW and good luck with your kitchen remodelling! zsuzsa #36

Gorgeous flowers Neet! I hope your craft room's role as a temporary kitchen is short lived and you get your new kitchen soon! Happy crafting, Max #41 :-)
Hi Neet, THOUGHT I'd already visited you but don't see my comment. Thanks for visiting me - in answer to your question about a Visible Image image ... no, it's by Creative Expressions.

What beautiful roses, Neet. They are are stunning colours, I'm not surprised they cheer you up. Good luck with the new kitchen. That's what I'm desperate for so I'll have kitchen envy!!!!
Thanks for popping by earlier.

Thanks for your visit earlier - it's stopped now so the chickens are looking more normal. (in our house!?)
How exciting to have a new kitchen - remember it will soon be over and you can stand in your kitchen with a smile!
Love your roses.
Have a good week

Great work desk, I love roses. You are so lucky to have them.
Lilian B#26
The gorgeous spray of color created by the roses you got from Paul is certainly breathtaking. Your workspace looks very efficient with all your art materials at arms reach. Thanks for your earlier visit and happy WOYWW!
What pretty colour roses. I love roses. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Great to be back blogging again xx
Beautiful roses. I can't wait to see some of the journalling you've been doing with magazines. Sounds like a lot fun.
Happy WOYWW

Neet, those flowers are simply gorgeous! Lucky you! So excited for you and your kitchen redo, I know its probably a challenge right now, but I am sure the end will bring lots of smiles! Love your work space and I hang my tags from tag swaps on my wall too! Too funny! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Blessings to you! Felicia #50
Thank you for giving me a new stamping idea, I love to try new things.
The roses are very beautiful.
Lovely flowers. The new kitchen will be worth it all in the end - we had to put out 'kitchen' in the hall a few years ago for most of July - but it was so worth it in the end (especially as I got a custom built craft room at the same time!)
Bernice #25
A husband who brings you flowers! Perfect! They look bright and colorful.
Lovely ATCs too.
I hope we get to see your journaling in the magazine.
Thank you for visiting,
Greetings from sunny Spain,

Good luck with getting your kitchen done - it's chaotic but so worth it - I remember we lived off paper plates and microwaved food when we had ours done! Love the flowers, they are so bright and pretty.
Happy WOYWW,
Diana#28
Gorgeous roses, I can smell them from here - LOL Thanks for visiting BJ#27
Hi there Neet, how quickly time goes.. saw your roses last week cant recall if I commented but they are lovely ours are still flowering but not as abundantly.
Thanks so much for the inspiration, and for popping over too.

Fabulous flowers Neet, and you got some good atc's.
I'm not sure I envy you having anew kitchen, the work involved with making it happen seems so much effort, but I am sure it will be wonderful when it is done.
Thanks for visiting my 'desk', I never really did get to spend the day in that chair, having arrived at the top we had to buy food and other shopping. Just went on and on.
