Ok, so I've recovered!

After yesterdays DRAMA I am actually better for it. I had no choice but to get stuck in & sort, tidy & organize a little better than it was. The result, I am happy to say, is nothing short of AMAZING!!! I sorted through buttons {now all in their correct Autumn leaves baggies}, I put all the brads in one place {hallelujah!}, all little, itty, bitty, just in case off cuts of paper, saw the recycling bin. I feel like a weight is off my shoulders & my table :o) & I can actually think 'scrap' again.

I felt so inspired this afternoon by my 'new' scrap area, that I got out my half finished L.O, inspired by the cover of ALI EDWARDS new book. I started it in December last year just before we left on vacation. I stamped, stuck & journaled with everything I needed at my finger tips. I finished it in record time {before Max woke up from his afternoon nap & photographed it too I might add}. I am now SO inspired, I just want to get creative......which is a good thing, as I am dead set on applying for a couple of DT positions & hopefully getting one of them. The only hitch being, is that I will have to do completely new L.O's for the applications, with most of my new L.O's still out with magazines for consideration. Oh well, like a bit of high speed motivation to scrap ever scared me off before....NOT!! I am the queen of one night wonders, for same-night-deadlines hahahaha!


For someone like me, who is nervous of ink....this L.O was SERIOUSLY out of the box for moi! I am more than thrilled with the result tho', so much so I think I might as well take a chance & submit it anyway {even though technically it is an Ali lift}.

Happy scrapping folks....I know I will be :o)

Early start.

My day started REAL early this am. Maxi was up @6.15am {I was shattered to say the least!} Why you ask, if I got to bed at a decent hour???? Me... bed at a decent hour NEVER!!! & the fact that I am still fighting with my darn mattress, yip my new one :o( I didn't get much in the way of sleep.....the up side is that I did get to see the world just after dawn.....I was pleasantly surprised, it was lovely so took some pic's from my studio.

This is where I spend my pre-scrapping hours.....sorting, photoshop-ing & printing photographs.


The next pic is a picture from the top looking down into my husbands office space...{he runs his design shop from home}.


This is the view of the mountain behind our house.....well across the road anyhow.....


And the last one I am embarrassed to say, is one of my scrap space.....mid L.O. I have a policy when I scrap......Mess like mad while busy but once finished, clean up COMPLETELY! then soon afterwards, I start the whole process all over again.

I have finally finished a double L.O that I have been pushing around for days.....I had the idea in my head but just couldn't get the execution right. I am pleased to say that a couple of Jennifer Pebbles digi printables did the job & I am thrilled with the result. I wish I could post it here but I need to get it through to Jana Lilly @ CK first.....sorry guys! Soon I will be able to post some of my new L.O's, I promise.

Well, I gotta run & do some errands. Have a super duper day & I will try & post again tomorrow.
Love
