My Desk on the Second Now & Then

 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. ¹² For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. ¹³ Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

¹⁴ Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; ¹⁵ And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; ¹⁶ Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. ¹⁷ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: ¹⁸ Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; Ephesians 6:11-18

It is time to show what is on our desks and to link to Julia over at Stamping Ground.  Since I am also joining Bleubeard & Elizabeth over at Altered Book Lover for Second on the 2nd, I thought it would be fun to show now & then. 

Here is my desk today!  What's On Your Desk? Wednesday #665

I couldn't decide what I was doing today.  The sunflower book is a junk journal I made last year.  Next to it on the right is what I was collecting to make a daisy junk journal, which is the March Stashbuster challenge by Julie Dear Julie this year.

The card on top of the little white organizer is a daisy card I made for the Alpha Challenge over at SplitcoastStampers, for P for petals this week.  That thingy with the handle is what I use to press harder on my Misti when stamping.  It is easier on my wrists.  What I originally got it for was to use to press down on pages on the Geli plate. On box it is a Speedball baren, made for a comfortable grip "for a shock-absorbent, smooth slide, this baren makes it easy to create even pressure for better ink images."  Great for arthritic wrists.  I bought it like 20 years ago, and just now getting it out to use on a regular basis, not just with the Geli plate.  It saves on my wrists.

Here is my desk then: November 26, 2013

What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday #234 & EMS Scrap Sketch

Well, my workdesk is a mess, because I have been scrapping.  I even have stuff from last week still on here! Yikes!  You can see the yellow strip of CS that I tried to cut my letters out of.  It didn't work, too light weight, so I used some 12x12 SU!  Also, do you notice the 2 adhesives in lower left corner?  Well, they stopped working.  I have a whole sack of adhesive, that broke or quit working.  They are different brands.  Am I the only person that has difficulties with adhesive?
Also, in front of the Copics are some gift calendars I am working on. I stamped an image and am using the inks to water color.  There are some fun photos on there that I might incorporate on a card.   If you don't know what WOYWW is check it out at Julia's Stamping Ground.

WOYWW #234

A close up on my scrap page is below.  It is for several challenges:
             SCS VSBN English Degree ( my Bachelor Degree)  We were to use a conversation bubble on our page.
             Stash Busters Challenge:  We were to use two printed papers at least a year old, Epoxy sticker or put a shiny glaze over a sticker, ribbon slide, ribbon.
             Even More Scrapping Sketch Challenge # 50

EMS Sketch # 50

              Credits:  Printed Paper TPC Studio "School Days Alphabet Jumble"
                              Cardstock: So Saffron & Sage Shadow both SU!
                              Accessories:  SU! Alphabet Die, Certainly Celery Ribbon, Ribbon Slide from years and years ago!  Spellbinders leaf die.  Bubble sticker from Bernard J. Putt & Assoc 1985!
Yikes!! 1985! LOL    I thought it would be fun to use the letters and the negative of the letters on my page. 

                                                

                                                  Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Psalm 103:1-2

  And finally, wishing my friends in U.S. Happy Thanksgiving!  Here is a photo of the pumpkin that my husband and I are slaughtering tomorrow to freeze lots and lots of bags of pumpkin!  But I thought it would make a nice Fall photo. :)  We do this every year about this time and then bake and freeze lots of mini loaves and regular size ones for Christmas gifts.

I hope you enjoyed seeing what is on my desk and a second look at 2013!  Have a glorious day!  Thank you so much for stopping by.
