Organize your Stuff: Week 28 (round 4): WOYWW #123 & card supplies


Welcome back for another whirl wind views of the world… one desk at a time. What is on your work desk? … here is ours…


For other fabulous fun finds, feel free to visit Julia at the Stamping Ground!

We were super busy this week. However, we did manage to make some cards for card supply week. OCD Me wants you to know that we make all of our cards from scratch (although in the past we have not been above buying them precut and scored from a box store to embellish). However, we do still buy our A4 envelopes in bulk (4.25 x 5.5…or half of an 8.5 x 11).


Also we had our weekly entry for Tuesday Trio's Sketch #88. We had to channel our inner bridesmaid and come up with something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue… here is Creative Me’s result…

In our personal lives, here is Girl Friday at the American Girl store picking out her first American Girl Doll. These are dolls that come from different eras in American History and teach that history through a series of books and videos (and of course accessories) from a girl’s point of view.

Girl Friday loves hers… and she and the doll have been inseparable ever since! See her asleep after all the excitement during the car ride home!

The following day was football (we lost), and Girl Fiday's Birthday dinner out... at the RAM.  Fun was had by all of the shoe inhabitants. (yeahhhh!!!!).  Have a fabulous WOYWW! See you soon!

I loved the photos of darling GF with her new doll. What could be more special to a girl than those first moments with her new friend? (I still have the Raggedy Ann I got at age 6 - in 1959!)
And football? Cheer up! We lost too - it's a bad year at The Swamp.

Not familiar with American Girl..good idea, but would be even better f it was WORLD girl, huh! Gorgeous pic of baby ga; asleep though, priceless. Please tell me that the cut off piece of postage edge paper on your desk isn't being saved for something....unless it's actually cut and ready to go on something specific?
