day 3


OK - up to day 3 of 21.

I'm enjoying the chance to play with my stash & put together something quickly - having a chance to play with ideas I wouldn't be comfortable with straight on a LO. I have decided on my habit - it's for some 'me' time each day. This me time includes daily bible reading & doing something 'arty' (this challenge) - two things I really enjoy.
There were so many other things - like getting up earlier, going for walks (have you felt the temp down here!!) washing the dishes every night (we do this anyway).... nah, too menial!

Actually starting this art journal is a part of my 'habit' I've toyed with this idea for a bit anyway!

Always wondered what to do with so many BG tags. Posted by Picasa

Hey I love the way you've used all those BG tags ... great job LOL
And I see you've found another application for your white pen - hooray! Where did you get your white pen Lara? since I was *driven* to get a white PENCIL in absence of a white pen, I'm feeling a new need for white hand-drawn lines.

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...
