WOYWW #384

Happy Wednesday and WOYWW all my crafty friends! Well, we are all trying to get back into the swing of things here on the east coast after disastrous Hurricane Matthew! He was a booger bear and left a lot of damage in his wake! I'm so thankful all my family members made it to safe ground and had little to no damage on their homes! We were all blessed to be sure and I pray all of you other east coasters were safe as well!

Today is desk reveal day and I do have a smidge on there right now. Having finished several choice projects from last week that I shared, I have been able to focus on monthly challenge projects now. I have finished my ATC Swap Challenges (I can't reveal yet) and waiting on my marching orders and am currently working on my Tag It Tuesday Challenge as a part of the Facebook Group by the same name. If you want to play along, come on over! 
So, without revealing too much, you can see some of my goodies that I will be using to incorporate to this month's challenge. The only set in stone requirement to the challenge was to use the Pantone colors here:
Sheri, who is our fearless leader, has been using Pantone colors each month and this month, I really like the colors this month! I didn't have the exact Pantone colors, but you can see from above that I am matching as best as I can! I have some ideas about what I want to do with the rest of the mumbo jumbo on my desk, but we all know that our plans and what actually comes out on the project don't always look the same! LOLOL I'm ok with that because sometimes it turns out better than in my crazy mind! LOLOL  I will reveal the finished project maybe next week! :)

That's really all I can show right now my friends! I hope all of your Wednesdays are bright, blessed and fantastico! :)

Happy WOYWW! :)

  13. Those colours are really pretty and you've done a great job matching them - I love the little bits of what you call mumbo jumbo, the pumpkins are so cute - I look forward to seeing your finished tag. I'm so glad you weren't affected by the hurricane - it looked pretty ghastly on our news over here. Thank you so much for visiting my desk and I hope you have a great week,

    1. Right!? I love that Sheri does that, although sometimes they are hard to match! LOLOL A Catch 22! Thanks for your thoughts and for stopping in! Blessings

  16. What a gorgeous and unusual colour combination, Felicia. What you are doing with it is really lovely! I am so glad you and your family were all OK in the hurricane. What a worry it was for everybody, and it makes me so thankful for our equable UK climate.

    Thank you for your lovely comment - so full of enthusiasm for my efforts! So glad you like the Zengems - they are quite impressive, aren't they - I knew when I first saw them that I had to give them a go, and they aren't that hard to do. Thank you so much for your prayers - my appointment was OK, there is no cancer, but they found some small clots in my lungs (nothing too serious) and I will now have to take aspirin to thin my blood a bit. I wasn't too impressed with the lack of communication over this appointment, though, and think they could have put my mind at rest a lot sooner.

    We've had nice things to compensate, though - a really lovely day out yesterday with our friends, and the arrival of my iPad just before we set out, and I've been having great fun playing with it since, and wondering why I didn't get one ages ago!

    Wish I could send you some of my quiche - the rest is in the freezer. You can put anything in them really, any bits and pieces of veg left over, etc. They come out different every time! I must photograph the next ones I make.

    Happy belated WOYWW,

  17. Thank you so much for your kind wishes on my blog this week.
    What a shock it was to hear that you could have been badly affected by Hurricane Matthew - thank goodness you were ok. It must have been scary.
    Looking forward to seeing the ATC reveal.
