WOYWW lucky last


My first post for 2013 just fizzled out when blogger wouldn't play nice on Wednesday.
So, if you are still trawling desks, maybe you will stumble across mine.

You can see a small handmade book, using sketch pad paper, distress stains and washi tape. It was really just an excuse to get the hang of the "five hole pamphlet stitch" which, in fact, turned out to be pretty simple.


I'm late, so let's just leave it there for now, 
and I will pop over and visit Julia at the Stamping Ground.

  1. Your desk looks very busy. I see creativity all over it. I like your little helper. He's a perfect little badge holder. Have a creative week.

  6. Thank you for sharing! I just purchased some of those distress inks in a bottle, did you put the little white dots on the top and a spot of color! What a great idea...running to check my bottles! Thanks for a wonderful idea!
