new year

O.k so I've been a bad blogger - and no I haven't made "to blog more" a new years resolution! but I did go for a walk this morning.
I didn't get much layout scrapping done leading up to Christmas - gift making took over - I'm really pleased with how scrapcanvasses turned out. After not thinking I'm very Christmassy I entered a 'Spirit of Christmas' competition put out by our council & I won a tent -very exciting - I'm hoping for some time off for my dh to go camping with us some time this month. I'm looking forward to our scrap 'n' chat on the 14th and to putting plans together for a scrap camp perhaps in May some time.
I have so many photos to scrap (as the digitalmax .32 cent prints have ended) and a few competition entries to work on that I probably shouldn't be blogging but rather scrapping. Problem is that after Christmas & New Year I have even more photos to consider getting printed!
Happy New Year everyone!

Happy New Year! How cool winning a tent - bet the kids are rapt! I went for a big walk yesterday and to the gym today so back to it a bit. Good luck with the scrap competitions.

Hi Lara
Just a quick note to say you should check www.digitalmax.co.nz because they haven't yet changed their 32cent offer (to whatever they decide to charge in 2006). I've ordered a few photos this week -holidays need photos!- and they've all been uploaded at the 2005 32cent price.

Purging

The stuff can take over.  My stuff was covering my work surface and much of the bedroom floor.  I had to do a big sort out. I was brutal.   Stuff...ready to go. I packaged it in some storage totes I had that needed a new home (I’m waiting for my new CTMH travel system to arrive) and listed it on s local trading site.  It’s gone now. It doesn’t look pretty but I have a desk space and things are organised. The rest of my supplies now fit in this cupboard. Since the ‘purge’ I have had the space to create.  It feels good and it’s great to be able to get to my desk. A few pages made since the tidy up...and a box of 20 cards!

my week so far...

This week is turning out great!  Having time on Monday (Otago Anniversary Day) to scrap with Lynley was just the best beginning!  Lynley was putting together some beginner class stuff that she intends to do soon – it looked great!  I got home to an email from The Scrapbook Outlet NZ asking if I would be a casual/oncall designer for their Design Team – of course I accepted – can’t wait to learn from Rach , Donna & Shani!  Then today I get an email from Jo (subeditor @ Up2Scrap ) accepting one of my submissions – I did send a few mind you so as you can imagine I’m buzzing!  I have packaged the LO ready to send tomorrow after Playcentre. Need to get back to reality though – Mum & Dad’s 50th Birthday this weekend, have to work out what I’m going to say, sort some table decorations & not to mention some way of sharing pictures of them when I only have Friday night & Saturday to do it!  Have to do some Playcentre Admin work this ev...
