Our world here on the East Coast. It's a wonderland. Here is me attempting to get to my workdesk last night. Hahaha. I have spent the last 3 days learning what it officially means to be 'snowed in'.
My great friend, Jen and her husband and baby and I all .had a long impromptu slumber party. We had such fun. We would only break the party for moments of hysteria where we wondered if you could die from clostrophobia? My snowdays really interfered with normalcy here at Amber Ink.

Tonight my workdesk is covered with an attempt to get back on track.
Our 21-Day Amber Ink. INK-redible challenge was supposed to launch today. Instead we are launching TONIGHT! I would be sore remiss to fail to mention the brilliance and hard work of our amazing torch bearers. These girls ran during the holiday! They sprinted over St.Nick's path and they arrived huffing and puffing and we are so glad they did. Our challenge this month calls you to organize with Amber Ink!

Without further ado, look at our workdesks!

Aren't our workdesks lovely? We hope you join us with your own organizing bits of brilliance. Please leave some love on our torch bearers blogs. They really are a wow-worthy group. We gasp at their smartness all the time.
As always our winner wins a custom designed set with me.This month, the winner of our 21-day Wrap it Your Way Challenge,the accomplished Emily L. and I will be composing a set to be entitled "European Chic!" Isn't that the greatest name for an Amber Girl you ever heard?
So that's our snowy workdesk here at Amber Ink. What's on yours? Hop over to our pal and yours, Julia Dunnit's genius blog to show and to tell. xoxo

I couldn't leave a comment the first time I stopped by. Now my typing shows. Looks like you have a ton of snow. I have had NONE. I can only watch and appreciate what you are going through. Happy WOYWW from number 2.
I think that's enough snow for now! How about you?
Have a Happy New Year and happy WOYWW! #4
Great projects, it's hard to pick which is my favorite! Patsy from

I no longer wish I was still in New York! Being snowed in would drive me insane! I hope it means you have time to create, because everyone's desks look fabulous. The projects are amazing and I can't wait to see the new set.
Happy New Year,

wow! my kids would love to play in the snow and when we visited California in december some years back, we had to search for snow. found some snow on the way to Vegas.
great creations!
happy new year!
With enough toilet paper, milk and bread and papercrafting supplies, the anxiety of being snowed in can be lessened. Hope you are dug out soon :D.
Oh gosh, snow! I don't envy you. Hope you get back on track!
That's a lovely collection of makes. I think I need to create one of those holiday planners for next year, so that I can at the very least impersonate an organised person.
Hope you get to dig yourselves out soon. There gets to be a point when snow is beyond pretty, and getting snowed in can't be much fun. Wishing you plenty of supplies (both food and crafty) and a steady thaw.

WOW, I haven't been in snow like that since the winter of 1975 when I left Indiana to move to Southern California! Brrrrrrr and YIKES!
Thanks for the show of neat work desks. Mine? NSM! LOL

Oh Amber now thatis a ridiculous amount of snow. We only had about 6" and it brought us all to a temporary standstill...and then the ice that goes with it...grim. I hope it changes and the thaw sets in really fast...your torch bearers are an amazingly inspiring bunch..and 'European'? I can't wait!
Crafty and organized, how wonderful. Hope you are more mobile again soon. Happy New Year. S #48
Great creations. You've got an amazing amount of snow!! Hope you're all okay.
Wow. Thats some pile of snow that needs shifting.
We have finally seen the last of ours here. Now we have damp and fog so can't see a thing outside.#59
Oh my!! I've been watching the weather news and I don't know how you all do it. I love winter, but to be so locked in. Thank goodness for crafting.
Your projects are wonderful.

I use to wish I lived in a place where it snows again...I use to live in Colorado. But now seeing all the news footage of you guys being snowed in, it doesn't look very fun. Hopefully it melts soon for you...lol.
Adorable card by the way! Hopefully you have a wonderful New Year!
Thanks for the peek!

Oh my word! How can you walk through snow like that? I wouldn't even open the door! LOL! Happy New Year! keeley §61
Snowed in to the extreme!! Love it.. What a crafty group of ladies you have here.. the projects are all so cute! I hope you have a great New Year!!
Wonderful projects by everyone, thank you for sharing. I remember being snowed in quite a few times in the Mid-west. Believe it or not, one night in Bradenton, Fl. last week during the cold snap we did see a few flakes of snow, but you had to look fast. LOL> #75
not sure what happened with my computer, but my last post didnt seem to take.
the projects are fab as usual, looking forward to your new designs in 2011.
Happy New Year
