What's on your Workdesk? Wednesday 159



I haven't posted for a while and haven't joined in with the Wednesday fun for ages either - I have missed it and am glad to be back.  My desk is quite organised as I am starting my Daughter Sarah's wedding invitations. I am doing the stamping this week then we are putting them together at the weekend when we are having a girlie weekend together at Sarah's house.

The frame and the punch are from Stamping Up and the set of words is a Marion Emberson clear set.  We are keeping the invitations simple by adding some gold card and bottle green ribbon.

If you are wondering what the Wednesday desk snoop is all about pop over to Julia's  fab blog to find out and join in.

Thank you so much for popping by.  Take care. Christine xx

Thanks for the comment on my post today - if you go back to the 4th and 5th October last you can see lots of examples of the little houses from when I taught a workshop at my club on them.
Nice to have you back on WOYWW and how exciting to be doing your daughter's wedding invites - that looks like a classy stamps - and using my favourite ink pad too.
Thanks for sharing - Hugs, Neet #21 xx
