A Very Special WOYWW

Morning folks...I'm so excited...for starters it's that day of the week when we all meet up over at Julia's place...yes it's time for all us WOYWW addicts to share what's on our workdesks today...so let me cut to the chase and do the cubbyhole workdesk reveal...
look away now if you haven't even started making your Christmas cards yet...
I've been squirreling away each and every DT..demo and workshop Christmas Card since way back in July and I'm officially announcing to the world that I won't be rushing to the postbox at the last minute this year...now that's definitely a first and at a rough count I should have enough for teamies...bloggy buddies...family and friends. But and it's a big BUT...I have to write them all first...yes I've given myself a good talking to and dismissed any thoughts of cubbyhole make-overs...well perhaps until after Christmas so today is going to be a mega chore day requiring lots of coffee...cake...the company of the one and only Mr Buble and just for good measure...the big girl knickers. 
And there's an even more special reason for my uber excitable mood today...my lovely buddy Teen (Tina) is celebrating a very special birthday...it's the BIG LIFE BEGINS AT...
40
Happy Birthday Tina...
Sending great big birthday hugs from the cubbyhole crew

hopefully Tina has received her card...
 and the Birthday Bits and Bobs Box


I'll be back tomorrow to share some projects made with the gorgeous Secret Garden Project Of The Month Kit from Craftwork Cards.
Hugs Kath xxx

    Hurrah for you - I have the means of the card I just need to implement it and I am holding out because we always do a letter of our year and I am hoping that the flat sale will make it in.......
    I am sure your friend was delighted with her card and present :)

    Congrats on finishing your Christmas cards. Been making them since January and it's paid off this year - I only have six special ones to make and then I'm done too! Have a lot of stuff to sort out before Christmas so it's a blessing and the first time ever!
    I really want that box - would love to have one of them for all my bits and bobs! The draw back with being a crafter is that I make things for other people and not myself! Never seem to have the time, Kath your projects are lovely x

    What a lovely collection of Christmas cards Kath. I think I've got 71 now. Made 3 today, all pretty simple though.

    Gorgeous card and box for Tina. I've heard how much she loves it.

    Well done Kath - I expected nothing less really, but a great idea nonetheless!! And happy returns to T, hope she's looking forward, because it's true about the life beginning at 40. My cards aren't finished, but I think I am...need to move on to something non christmas for a while at least!

    Thanks for your nice message on my blog, Kath! Every day I think "I hope I feel better today" but this a.m. my throat is still terribly sore and I've still got no voice! (over a week now). I want to feel well enough to get back in my ARTHaven and start creating again!!! Hope you have a great weekend - I'm envious of you being on one of Andy's workshops! Shoshi #70
