WOYWW 23 Feb

Well, it's Wednesday, again already, so here's today's workspace catastrophe.
(Ha ha, you can't really see the catastrophe
 because I have very cleverly cropped the photo.)

I've started this month's Houses of History page for Lucy and her theme is Chateau de Versailles. (That's French for that Palace in France where Marie Antoinette lived and caused more catastrophe).  I've been giving this a lot of thought, 
so I know what I am going to do... sort of.
So now I am doing it ...


 I've started by painting the edges with cream acrylic paint, 
and collecting some appropriate embellishments.
 If you'd like to have a peek at lots of desks, follow the link (at the right)
 to Julia at the Stamping Ground.

  3. HOH is already looking good and I love the scroll you have chosen. I find it hard to do something for someone else because I over think. But if you just do what you love than it will be great. Can't wait to see how it turns out. I like the eucalyptus?? stamp.
    I am sending you an atc (you always say such nice things about my atc).
