Happy Anniversary!

WOYWW10206 Happy Anniversary to youuuuu! Happy Anniversary to youuuuuu! Happy Anniversary deeeear WOYWW! Happy Anniversary to youuuuuu! Please note - I sang that in my bestest singing voice!

I am AWOL today ... teaching a class in Olney ... so I have scheduled this post to appear and I shall be back at around tea time to see what all you WOYWWers have created for Julia's Anniversary challenge ... so make sure you save me some cake :0)

This is my effort ... needs a bit more work ... but I shall add to it over the coming weeks! I have always wanted a desk top calendar and this seemed like the ideal opportunity to make one!WOYWW0206

I hope you have also noticed that I have tidied my desk especially for the occasion ... well I had ... and then I made the calendar ... and erm ... well ...

That is all from me for now folks ... I just wanted to take this opportunity to congratulate Julia on the success of WOYWW ... Thank her for all her hard work and long may it continue ... the success obviously ... not the hard work!

Laters!

Cardarian said...

A desk top calender! How clever is that? Love your work - so fab! But I am realy disapointed as you didn't mention how many more days to your visit to Timholzean land! Ha, ha...
Hugs,
Cardarian

Bettythebaglady said...

Am with Cardarian on the so many days etc etc. That's two weeks in a row. We can cope as we will be with you in spirit if we can't get in your suitcase. LOL. The desk calendar is incredible and I think there will have to be a book published of all the projects in this event with full instructions-proceeds to Julia's favourite charity. Just tell us how you made it. Hugs BettyXXX
By the way I will wear it if we do think of somewhere to meet up and I get there.

Anonymous said...

That's a rather nifty calendar, fancy making me one? I should have asked earlier as I was in striking distance of you last week! Loved your article about the BIA in Craft Stamper, first time I've seen that mag but it certainly won't be the last!

Hugs
Brenda

Diana said...

This looks great!
And no worries... I don't expect everyone to come by my blog; after all I don't get to everyone else's (don't have the time!)

Julie said...

Love your desk top calender Linda - bit more effort than my offering!!! The frame is divine!! Juliex

Gez Butterworth said...

Super awesome crafting as always Linda. Love your calendar thingy of course you could always use it as a countdown for your jollies.
Have fun.xx

Nikki said...

Oohh this is pretty :)
love all the metal
hugs Nikki
enjoy your button/s

Minxy said...

This is wicked.. what more can i say *nod and a wink*

Kathy said...

I don't think that's your desk. You've just shifted a few choice bits and your lovely project onto the dining table.

No.... it just CAN'T be your desk. Not a snowball's chance out there in the garden today

Elaine said...

I was one of the Crafty Quartet ladies that was at your class in Olney (the one who had trouble with her roses!!). We had a great time - thank you and I think I have definitely got over my fear of making them!

I can only imagine how excited you are getting ready for your US trip. It will be utterly brilliant. Hope the time doesn't go as quickly for you as it did for our crafty break - it was over all too soon.

stephanie said...
