WOYWW #162 (or 163) and latest completed "projects"...

So, while my camera is in upload mode-that is your warning there are *lots* of pictures here, I thought I would write a quick note to tell you why I am sharing pics of my craft room...that would be because dear Julia at Stamping Ground has graciously granted us this forum to be as snoopy as we can! If you would like to take a peek at other crafty spaces from around the world head over to the Stamping Ground and go crazy. :)
First are a few pictures from around my craft room since I used more than just my paper space this week. Rare, but it happens! :) This is to the left of my paper crafting space, you can see the edge of my big shot in the far right corner of the picture, see? Its covered with "sassy embellishments" and completed cards at the moment, they will soon be taken to shops. Also my cherished ATC's from around the world are hanging out here...its the safest place for them at the moment! :) Must get one of those display thingies...

 Here is the oft pictured paper craft desk...yah, its a wreck! No excuses for it either...

 Here is the bow and jewelry station/side...and its where I've been creating the most for the last few days.

 Made this one a long time ago but I still haven't taken it to the shop.

 New black and white funky fabulous...

 Sock monkey!

 Another sock monkey!

 Boutique styled funky and considered "over the top"!

 So frou-frou-licious!

 Not the best picture but its a close one...future centerpiece for a new necklace. Steampunk style!

 Took the plainish paper on the right and turned it into the fabulous paper on the left for a special card...

My sisters 1st year wedding anniversary card that was to be for my mom to give her. Its a gatefold and has touches of silver in the clock, sentiment & frame, and the pocket watch, which all 3 pop-out. I used some TH to color the paper a little then I embossed it and colored with TH some more. It looks amazing against the black background! I'm not just braggin'! I really liked how it turned out. :) The card base was blackish cardstock that I inked up with archival black to make it a deeper black.

Next was my card for her and hubs, from me. The sentiment "Happily ever after" probably seems more like a wedding card but what I wrote inside was along the lines that everyone wants happily ever after but isn't always willing to work for it...I think they are and so they will get their happily ever after. Insert tears. lol Sorry it didn't photo that well, all that glitter ya know...

And lastly, because I couldn't wait any longer, though I hope she puts them up too, if she wants to I mean, are pictures of the ATC's I sent to dear Lilian...I was really pleased with these!

The edges are distressed, which I haven't done much but loved how it revealed just a bit of the ATC base, which was black. Used metalic pewter embossing powder over deep red ink on the "the beauty of nature" sentiment and just black archival ink on the "spread your wings and fly" sentiment. And the part I really loved is the charm that looks like a bird cage but has pearls in it. Fun and gives me the nice odd number of 3 cages on the ATC! :) Used black adhesive gems to make the "rope" holding the cage.

This is the other one I sent her. Its a prima stamp, I think, called talk of the town. Stamped then colored it.

Added the sentiment on the bottom, which pops out and is inked up, then a pink rose cabochon and finally a frame for the middle ladies face.

They were both so fun to do that I almost didn't send them away! :) Make sure you go by dear Lilians blog to see her fabulous art work! Now her stuff is what I really consider art. Beautiful. But thanks for stopping by to see my fun and shall we say creative? stuff! :)
