WOYWW: My Prayer Desk

I did not think you would want another peek at my tidy desk so I am showing you what my prayer desk looks like every morning.  This is the desk beside my bed and I keep my bible, prayer journal and basic art materials for my morning quiet time here.  There is the iPad where I read the daily reflections in the Evangelizo and Laudate apps.  

As I reflect on the verse for the day, I make illustrations which I often share in Word Art Wednesday.  Let my heart be as the rich soil and let the seeds of God's word go deep down and grow and bear fruit. 

I started trading ATCs again in ATCs for All and here are some of the beautiful cards I received from there, as well as from trades for the What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday Anniversary!  It's wonderful to receive these beauties in the mail!

Thank your for your visits, my dear blog friends!

WOYWW Wow and WAW Rescue

 

Wow, this is the tidiest my desk has been for WOYWW in a long time.  All there you can see are the gorgeous ATCs I received from the awesome WOYWW sewing sisters, Annie and Jo (also known as Wipso and Twiglet)...

I had to tidy up because just the other day, I made a big mess from an attempt to rescue a ruined bag by peeling off the outer layer of a faux leather trim that was already peeling off (experimenting what it would look like)...

Here it is after I finished peeling it all off.  Not bad, what do you think?  Any ideas about the next step?

And for Word Art Wednesday (WAW), a prayer journal illustration, also about rescuing...

Random.org picked a winner for my ATC giveaway last week and it is Carole Robb Bisson! Send me your address, Carole!  Have a blessed week everyone!

WOYWW: Truffles Take Over

My desk has been taken over by Truffles and she is exploring the mess I've made while finishing some ATCs.  It seems the only flat place left to sit is on top of my computer!

She's found dried flowers from Mother's Day way up on the shelves...

She looks like she's the boss, doesn't she?

I've decided to have a little giveaway today for one of my ATCs.  Just leave me a comment for a chance to win!

Here's a page from my prayer journal...

Thank you for dropping by and don't forget to visit other desks joining What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday and Word Art Wednesday!

WOYWW: ATCs and Gel Medium

I can't believe it is time for What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday again!  I thought I would try to greet everyone a Happy WOYWW Anniversary last week but the week seemed to go extra quickly!  I am still making ATCs and this time, I'm putting words on them...

I make a photocopy of the mirror image of a word, and use gel medium to paste it face down on the card...

When the gel medium is dry, I rub off the paper with a wet finger and the word gets transferred to the card!  Here is one I've finished rubbing...

I am still celebrating the WOYWW anniversary and if you asked for a trade, I'll have some new cards ready to trade soon!

And as always, for Word Art Wednesday, here is a page from my journal, reminding us that God always leads us...

Thank you for your visits and encouragement.  I hope to do more visiting in the coming week, this time to greet you a belated happy WOYWW anniversary!
