It has to be said - It's Wednesday AGAIN?
Morning all, hope you are all well and surviving safe at home. Looks to be a reasonable day here in London, cloudy but bright at the mo. We are all doing fine, not in much of a routine just taking each day as it comes.
Here is my desk this week, ever so slightly staged.
I have decided I really must crack on with those WIP boxes this week. I feel like I'm producing loads but not making much of a dent in it. Big box to right is WIP box no 1. Basket to left and cards on table the fruits of my labour. There are more, they have gone away already. Front right, happy mail and my reward. Yes I cracked and bought a couple of things....
I still have at least 3 more WIP boxes. By the end of today I may have to do some judicious re-arrangement so I can say I have finished the first one. I may be only fooling myself but it will help my motivation. I seriously thought I could whip this into shape in a couple of weeks. Talk about underestimating the size of the problem!!
And I've still got wedding invites to finish.....
Why am I telling you this? Because it's WOYW Wednesday, the day when we go for a wander around the desks of the great and the good courtesy of the lovely Julia at Stamping Ground. Pop on over and join in why don't ya?
That's all from me, stay home, stay safe, stay well. Happy desking!!

Well done on starting to get through those WIP boxes Cindy. You already seem to have made a dent in them. Nice reward stash too! Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #2
Well I had to zoom in and have a good look at those beautiful cards. Simply stunning and the goodies are going to be fun to create more cards. Stay safe and keep crafting.

It's like Groundhog isn't ti? It's how I remember which day of the week it is! Love the WiP boxes, you're doing well getting through those. I'm enjoying making the scrubs bags, my menfolk are helping which is speeding things up a lot.
I'm glad you're keeping well and happy - stay safe

A great time for getting through those WIPs - I wish I was as focussed. I am a bit of a butterfly and like to flit from one activity to another - this week I am making isolation gowns - lol - all good fun. Take care and stay safe. xx Jo
Hi Cindy. What a wonderfully cheering post! Had me in tucks of laughter. I really like your style - judicious sorting! I love it!! Well done on working through your WIPs - I haven't really started on mine yet - keep thinking of other things to do... You have mad impressive ways into your boxes - and definitely deserved that reward.
Thanks for your visit - and being so polite and not mentioning that my post this morning is in a muddle. I'm afraid word press wasn't playing properly today - even when I went back and tried to edit the thing!!
Take care. Stay safe. God bless.

Oh Vindy, I’ve just said to Kyla...I’ve made stacks of cards using up scraps for mats and die cuts, and my scrap box is still overflowing...am beginning to think the WIPs are going to behave the same way! Therefore don’t blame yourself, just plod on!
Hi Cindy, glad it's not just me that has so much stuff half made but at least you've got started with yours so well done. Thank you so much for your kind thoughts, much appreciated. Take care and have a very happy woyww, Angela x15x
Well it looks like you're keeping busy with those boxes. Fab desk share. Take care Zoe xx 25
Hi Cindy, I think Jan summed it up perfectly it's definitely gives us that groundhog feeling. Those WIPS are a never ending thought in my crafty mind, there's not many areas left untouched by something that needs finishing inside and out but it sure does keep us busy.
Love those Lisa Horton stamps, I was tempted but.... thought the better of it!
Enjoy your creative time you've treated us with a fabulous selection of completes, thanks for sharing WOYWW stay safe & creative Tracey #14
Cool Cards Cindy

I have to say the butterfly stamps just jumped out at me and I'm now hankering after them - aren't they fabulous! Keep up the good work with the wip's, I think a lot of us have caught that but in different degrees!
Have a good week,
Diana x #21
Well done on starting the WIPs I'm late getting here as didn't have a lunch break (went to get the phone fixed so it was worth it!) what a nightmare... still my right hand has been restored now!! Take care and stay safe.. Helen #4

Hello Cindy, I know how to have WIP things going on. I find a lot of them at the moment now I am cleaning up my stash. Yes, I have to sort them out and make something interesting about them. I am glad you have happy mails too. Thank you ever so much for sharing.
Kind regards

ooo you are good Cindy, I am ignoring the WIP's and making new stuff ( i AM finishing 90%) of them though - so that's okay . I am so tempted to get that sizzix book die - enjoy using it .sorry I am a bit late visiting this week . Take care Soojay #24
I love the happy mail and well done for starting to tackle the WIP! Happy belated WOYWW. Stay safe and take care my friend. With love & God Bless, Caro xx (#29)
I really must make some cards! Really am behind on the card making front, so far behind that I think my WIP boxes can stay as they are for a while yet, I have new things to pursue and would love to do a mixed media canvas that is in my head. Why do I seem to have less time now than I did before - there are no more demands on me, life hasn't changed really.
I like the thought of you re-jigging so that your brain is fooled into thinking you have made lots of progress, sounds just like me. Still it could work.
Thanks for showing your work on #Cheers, not only does it cheer FB up a b;it it gives us all a chance to share all the lovely things you do. No idea why I am so late in posting comments this week - I seem to be really losing time.
Take care Cindy
Hugs, Neet 8 xx
You are producing lots of beautiful cards from your WIP box, Cindy. I am mostly working on new stuff these days despite my resolution to get on top of my ever-growing collection of UFOs!
Happy belated WOYWW,
Shoshi x #10
That's a lot of WIPs to tackle Cindy... take it easy dear! Sorry I'm late with my visit this week... it's already Saturday, wow! Enjoy your weekend! Hug from Holland, Marit #20
Fair play for tackling the WIP! I just spotted Julia's update about what we can do for the 11th WOYWW anniversary-tackle a UFO!!!! I will have to choose wisely which one of the many I appear to have spread across various boxes too!!
