Welcome to this stop on the WOYWW blog hop! You have come here from an amazingly creative desk and the one you hop to next will be well worth your snoop d'boop. For details on this hop, please check with our wonderful hostess Julia over at What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday and join in the fun!
Before I move on to my desk, I just want to take a moment to condole with all the folks in the world and particularly in the Midwest states who should be welcoming Spring by now, but instead are experiencing flooding from excessive rains, or continuing to be otherwise blustered, frozen, or snowed on. I can only send you cyber Spring from here and hope you get the real thing soon!
Here is my desk.
Of note this week is the beautiful floral card in lush hues that I received from a lovely lady who doesn't follow and doesn't blog, but who is a loyal reader and supporter! Thank you, Pam, and thank you, too, Tracy, Mamie, Laura, and all you other silent cheerleaders. I appreciate you very much!
But what is happening to me?! I'm Messy Bessy again! I'm sure it's not that tall vodka since that's nothing new. And another thing, it's getting to the point where my focus button is useless. I got distracted by some noise or critter out the window and, then, as I shifted my attention back to my card, my elbow knocked over my little container of blue brads,

which all had to be immediately picked up because SAS I would step on one in my bare feet, wince, bleep, grasp my knee, lose my balance, hit the back of my pin head on something, lose my conscience, leading me to do something illegal or immoral . . . well, you get the idea.
Doesn't it make you snigger when a well-meaning young person looks at you with a bit of pity and says, "And what do you do all day?" Like it's boring, for heaven's sake! If they only knew the adventures we have just trying to stay upright!

For those of you who might only visit on WOYWW days and have asked, I am reposting a picture of the button shanker tool I mentioned in last week's WOYWW.

I'm delighted to introduce you all to my latest friend, someone many of you know well already! Please welcome Valerie from Canonbury Creations! Valerie is a seasoned card artist and blogger, so you'll be happy you made the time to stop in for a visit with her. Thank you, Val!

I'm trying not to think about the fact that this is the last Wednesday in April already and the next time some of us will meet will be on May Day! Aacckk! May! Time to finish up those baskets and those ATCs!
Here's a little cyber Spring to cheer you on!

I have no idea where I purchased it, but you can find options when you ask the ever-amazing Mr. Google. Or you can check with Lunch Lady Jan who tells me there is a cream for removing shanks. I'm still chuckling about that a week later! You may find wire snips work just fine for you. All I know is I had a whole container of buttons to deshank, so I found it was worth the few bucksters.
