Next week is another Magic Number - we reach 700 posts - well some do - thanks to Ms Julia the inventor of WOYWW. I wonder how many regular WOYWW'ers were here at the beginning? Gosh, they've notched up a lot of paragraphs if they were here from day one.
Well, crafting has taken a back step this week, no reason, but I am going to have to pull out the stops if I am going to get a couple of special cards made this week. I only made three last week and two of those were the same as cards made in the past so the third one was for my friend's daughter who is horse mad and is another of those Thelwell type images (not him but a similar copy)
This is the last of the three images on the stamp plate so I will have to think of something else for next year - guess it will have to be a horse of some kind. This time I coloured the images with my watercolour crayons.
A bit more interesting than my desk which is just containing a couple of bags full of crafting goodies. Now am I coming or going? That is the question.

That's funny, I keep my coaster without anything on top of it too! Your Ranger bag is a true gem. Have a great time. Helen #1
Nice bag but what are you up to! Can't wait to find out. Wishing you a very happy woyww. Hugs, Angela x13x
Somehow I just knew that even your bags are arty and beautiful. I love them , and that they’re signed. I also like the fact that however much they mean to you, you’re using them. After all, they mean nothing if they just sit on a shelf somewhere and using them shares the love! Love the horsey card. Next year can take care of itself, this years card is great and you may well be able to come up with a different image combination to avoid buying more horses!! Good luck with the ‘must makes’!
I agree, Jo's coaster does look too nice to use. I can see it looking perfect in a box frame on the wall, to admire and remember her. Such beautiful (and stuffed) craft bags you have too. Hope you manage to make your three cards as well as have a rest :) xx
Oh those bags are fabulous Neet. Hope you get all your special cards made in time. Thanks for the visit. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #11
Ah the oxides! I have a fair few, but not enough. I never thought any ink would replace Distress ones but yeah, these have. I need to fill some gaps cause I have no (As Julia would say) wee wee colours, only brights! Love the bags, so pretty. and have fun taking them or unpacking them, as the case may be...
Happy WOYWW Day!

The card made me smile because I love Thelwell ponies and their riders, I looked like that once being a horse mad girl! Those bags look full of promise, how exciting! Hope you have a lovely week and enjoy some crafting xx

I keep my coaster on display where I can see it and enjoy it. It would end up with paint on if I left it on my desk! So are you coming or going? I love the Thelwell images, guaranteed to make me smile! Happy WOYWW. Angela #5
Hi Neet, now what are you up to? Going somewhere nice, I hope. Your Thelwell-like card made me smile, perfect for a horse mad girl.
Take care and happy WOYWW

It's been one of those mornings for me...the lady coming for the two memory bears forgot to come! and the bridesmaid came with the bride for he fitting and they wanted a memory bear too....I guess some you win and some you lose. I've now made the memory bear and she's really rather special [will show and tell in 2 weeks].
I love your bags....you are as mysterious as me :-)
Hugs,

A sweet little birthday card and your bags are awesome! How cool are they? It was lovely to spot you on Helen's photos from the Crop. I'll see if you have any on your blog as well. Have a lovely week! xx zsuzsa #18
I'm sure you're off to do something crafty! Whatever it is, have fun! Love those bags, they are special! Hugs, Valerie
Good to see the little coaster there Neet - they wear quite well so don't be afraid to put your cuppa on it! xx Jo
The image on the card made me chuckle. It's beautifully coloured too. I'm thinking you won't be wanting to give those beautiful bags so methinks your not donating them and the contents. My guess would be that you are off to a craft day out, or even a weekend retreat. And if you are, how lovely. Thanks for taking the time to comment on my post today. It's so nice to be back. Hugs xx Elizabeth #21
PS: I wouldn't want to cover that beautiful coaster either!
Now those bags are intriguing Neet - coming or going - you will have to enlighten us next week!! My desk was so messy I had to tidy it before I could start working today. I have not done any cards for weeks, and I used it for putting stuff on, rather than putting it away, the stuff that is!.
Love that fun image on your card
Blessings

Morning Neet. I love the card - Thelwell type images are great! So... coming or going? Whichever it is, those bags look full of promise.
Take care. God bless.

So you're going somewhere? THose bags are marvelous and perfect to carry craft-materials, it's inspiration starts the moment you fill them and take them somewhere I guess. I love joining woyww this week after a long time absence; it's good to see what everyone's up to and catch up a bit. Have a great day dear, love from Holland. Marit #3
What a fun card Neet. I love those 2 stamped images. That horse made me smile. And your desk is so neat. My work space right now is a disaster. I have too many things to put away, but I've needed to finish my book clean in my daughter's old room, so my play space is waiting. Hope your week is going well. Hugs-Erika
Grreat card Neet, but I just LOVE your bags! My money is on going but hey what do I know? Good luck with getting your cards done!! Have a great week, love n hugs Cindy xx#14
Such a wonderful card, the image and sentiment made me smile 😊. Loving those bags too, such a lovely way to transport all those crafting goodies! Happy wishes! Hugs Jo x
