What's On Tap Tuesday?!

I missed last week, but I'm joining Cindy (aka the Crafty Frugalista) today for the 6th week of What's On Tap Tuesday? where we share our workspaces, finished projects, craftrooms, or whatever you happen to be working on! I think I got that right!

I dont' have a "finished" project to share, just a bunch of works in progress! My desk is pretty neat compared to usual since I got a new table for Mother's Day.
And YES, that is my Cricut in the upper left corner! I vow to keep it plugged in and in a (somewhat) cleared off space so I can use the bazillion cartridges me and my sister have accumulated! Along with some stars that I punched and covered in German Glitter Glass.


In the below photo, you can see my Uniquely Unity kit that I cut up and am ready to start assembling.


Down here are a small collection of trinket pins I started making again for my Etsy shop. I used to sell a lot of these at craft fairs (along with the decoupaged vintage music flowers) but since I don't have time for craft fairs these days, I thought I might load up my Etsy shop again.

As you can see here, I've outgrown my Ranger Distress Ink storage box! LOL! They are multiplying!
I just got the Wilson Designs stamp set and was playing with that a bit too! Finished project to follow soon :)

And of course, my little crafty companion! (and my other MESSY MESSY table in the upper right corner, still trying to clean up and organize there!)
Luke is decorating a little chicken bank with his Bic Mark-it collection! These are "his" markers that he is allowed to use in the loft ONLY! I passed them down to him recently since I have a large Copic collection now.

Thanks for stopping by for What's On Tap Tuesday! Why not join us and link up your space HERE!

What's On Tap Tuesday?!

I am joining the very talented Cindy (aka Scrapcollectr) aka the Crafty Frugalista (or as I like to call her, the Queen of the Tri-Shutter Cards!) this week over at her blog in sharing our work spaces. Here is her description of her new "What's On Tap Tuesday" taken from her initial blog post:

"I've been participating in a weekly blog hop based in the U.K. called What's on Your Workspace Wednesday. It's loads of fun but I'd like to bring it across the pond by starting a similar weekly hop called What's On Tap Tuesday? (WOTT?) I just think it would be fun to share what's going on on our desktops and/or in our lives each week. Maybe focus on a favorite tool or a daily adventure, as an example. Finished projects are not required but always welcome. Would you like to play? I'll have a Linky area every Tuesday so we can hop around easily. If I can get at least 20 interested bodies involved, I will just have to select a random person to get a little crafty RAK prize. Let's up the ante, too. I'll also post a question to consider answering in the comment field. Let's get to know each other better!"

So, here I go as I hang my head in shame over the mess I created!!! If you'd like to join in, Cindy has a Mr. Linky at the bottom of this post to share what you have on tap for this Tuesday!


In the above picture you see my bin of Copic Markers hiding in the background, I've been making an effort to use these again! Even though they scare me a little bit! I certainly have a big enough supply but since I haven't used them in awhile, I feel like I color like a Pre-Schooler! You will also see some Tim Holtz goodies, including the new Distress Stains I just got from Paper Wings, FUN STUFF and some Tim Holtz stamps in use!

Off to the right in this picture are some fun goodies I just received from Memorable Seasons in the mail including some Fancy Pants It's The Little Things buttons and design embellishments. Jill is awesome, she will hold your order until you accumulate $75.00, therefore free shipping! and she always runs great sales! So this order was a long time coming :)

Here are some paper scraps and two cards I made for an upcoming event at One Little Spark.

Another yummy stack of paper goodness!!!! This is Webster's Pages Ladies and Gents line and some My Little Shoebox that just arrived at Paper Wings!

And last but not least, I just had to include my latest Unity Kit of the Month!!!!!! It arrived in my mailbox a few days ago, very early this month which was a nice surprise!

Thanks for stopping by and why not join us for What's On Tap Tuesday?!?! Come on, show us YOUR workspace (aka mess!)
