creating


gotta love term break... two posts in one week!
I created fossick using some of the Ki lace paper from Scrapbook Outlet and some scraps from my overflowing pizza box, really enjoyed stamping onto the different textures with some of the big fancy pants swrily stamps that I got at SENZ South last year (was given them after using them for some make & takes I set up for Scrapbook Outlet) I have been busy putting class stuff together for SENZ in Welly later this year over the last couple of days - so sweet and twinkly!


This layout is such 'an everyday moment'. It's in the friday night challenge at Sketchbook which was all about the 'everyday' Nic H style. This story still makes me giggle.

well honey is from honey bees and so butter is from butterflies. :) And jam is made from jamborees.

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!

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...
