some scrappy stuff


Here's my photo sorting - all in LO piles. I then look @ the 'groups' of pics & do my journaling on wee cards, then it's all ready for me to look @ the photos & think about the journaling & the message I want to convey when I choose the bits to go with them.

Now I got home from work on Tuesday & there was not one but two boxes @ my door. one was my dt stuff for The Scrapbook Outlet for August & the other was a box full of Tarisota goodies. I usually only get the ribbons & this was a fantastic surprize from Tamar. It was soo stunning that I have now signed up for 'I want it all'!

Now Jase would try to tell you that he doesn't like scrapbooking - but what's this - some CS, Brads, my cutting mat & paper piercer - & Jase!!! Ok so he wasn't scrapping but making menu holders for Waitiri - oh the places that you can find scrapbooking useful! Posted by Picasa

Loving the hubbies pretending to not get into our special world....as my DH calls it....LOL But given the chance they love to have a touch and feel of the tools and bits on the desk....they are closet scrappers :-)

What a great way to sort your photos Lara. Might have to try copying that. Mine are in a big mess (or all still on the 'puter)
Am encouraging my DH to try digiscrapping, if he ever gets the time.

I so laughed at Jase with all your stuff. Darryn,too, has been known to filch some scrapping things 'for work' (though he'd never be caught dead scrapping!)

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...
