overlooked


Your fave cup was the theme for January at Overlooked. I used some yummy papers from Sassafrass Lass & Fancy Pants as well as the Sassa die cut journaling block & strips & monograms. Such easy papers & colours to work with. I got the papers to work with over January from Scrapbook Outlet... speaking of which...check out the SBO blog for a wee comp & some sneaky peeps.

My children have gone quiet... need to check!

all ok - they were catching caterpillars from the garden to feed to the chickens.

Back to school & work Thursday next week... seems as if the term break is coming to an end too quickly... unlike many I'm not actually looking forward to the kids going back, nor to the school fees and stationery costs & making lunches every night!

Later.

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...
