WOYWW #262

Hello Everybody!

Welcome to the World Wide Web of What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday (WOYWW)*. This edition is a follow-up to the 260th edition celebrating the 5th Anniversary of WOYWW! My desk today shows you the amazing, faffilicious, and remarkable ATCs I received in the swaperoo!

Thanks to the magic of a monkey pic, I fingered out how to label them for you! I'm feeling pretty smarty pantaloons about that! I didn't put the webs under the names because you can find these artists via the hop list, but if that doesn't work for you, feel free to mask me.
I have a few more coming (so beciting!); in fact, here are two more delicacies that arrived just as I was drafting this:
Thank you everyone who swapped with me! They are all priceless and precious treasures and I LOVE them! I'm looking forward to seeing yours! 

~~~

Real quick, I hope Julia doesn't mind me telling my WOYWW friends about my NBUS Challenge since I'm not selling anything for anybody. It's in celebration of all my bloggie friends and as motivation to use that NBUS! If you would like to participate (and I hope you do!), here is the party link with all the deets!! 

I'd like to thank fellow desker and talented graphic artist Nikki for making this brilliant button for my challenge:
Never-Before-Used-Schtuff (Stamps, Dies, EFs, etc.)
I hired her after I saw the terrific buttons she made for Julia for the WOYWW 5th Anniversary hop. Thank you, again, Nikki! Isn't WOYWW an incredible network?!

And I had to share this very relatable funny I just saw yesterday on Facebook:
{Facebook}
Enjoy your day! No, seriously, enjoy.  LITS!** 

As always, thank you for coming by to visit the Playhouse and special thanks to you if you take the time to leave a comment and/or join as a follower! Please let me know you came by, with your number, so I can be sure and return the flavor! We are getting the grand twinglesons and their dog Duke for five days starting tomorrow, WHOORAY!! It may take me the whole week to get to you, but as long as moody Blogger will let me, I'll get there!
  
 
**Life Is Too Short!

*Edited to add this message from our WOYWW hostess Julia's best friend, Jan:

There will not be a WOYWW link today, I've just heard from Julia, she has been taken ill whilst on holiday and is in hospital. Not life threatening but she is not well. PLEASE do not email her, if you want to send a message, then do it through me. She won't be home until next week, so I don't know if there's going to be a WOYWW next week either.  Sorry, I don't have any more info at the moment but will let you know with updates as soon as I get them. Jan xx

  25. You must tell me how you manipulated the monkeys who do the pictures to make words. Do you give the monkeys money???

    You confused me with the workdesk Wednesday stuff because it isn't Wed... in my mind. Looks like the anniversary/bday party was a success,so many great ATCs to see.

    Wowza that Julia is sickie. I hope she gets gooder soon!!!!

  26. Lots of beautiful art on your desk! Lucky you!

  29. Hi Darnell, thank you so much for visiting me earlier.
    Your comments are very kind.
    I'm pleased they laughed at the end of that little ditty, how many times have we said that and then ignored it lol!
    You must be very pleased with your collection of ATCs, they are lovely, I shall have to try and swap more if we do it again next year.
    Happy crafting, Angela @Felix the Crafty Cat x

  36. What a fun swap. Isn't getting a card (or many cards in your case) in the mail just the best?

    ReplyDelete
  37. Sweet ATCs! How nice that you're doing this exchange. Have to say, though...the "funny" is sooo spot on for me. You could have an NBUS everyday, and I'd still have new supplies! Have a great weekend. Bev

  46. It must have been so exciting to open up all those delightful ATCs. I haven't a clue what a monkey pic is so kudos to you for figuring it out.

    ReplyDelete
  47. My stars but those ATCs are spectacular works of art! Mini marvels, every one! I have a package of ATCs in my stash (somewhere), so I may have to give them some jazzing up! These you've shared and those you've created...swooning! Sorry to hear about Julia - prayers and well-wishes headed her way! Hugs~c

  49. Ha ha ha. Go you MS. NBUS. Hope our time with the twins was wunnerful. Thought of you just now as a baby bird crashed into my window, followed immediately by two squawking parents. Now I'm on the lookout for cats...
