Busy, busy, busy
I can't believe it's Monday again already! I am amazed at how short my 'weekend' seemed with working on Thursday. Sadly I will have to work Thursdays for at least another 2 weeks, which I am not looking forward to. It wasn't helped by the fact that I was just so busy most of the weekend, but I don't really know what I was doing! I suppose just fitting in time to see my children and grandchildren takes a fair amount of time. Poor Beth was finally back at school today and it looks like some of her spots may scar. She has had a really rough time with the chickenpox. I did find the time to make a quick digi page, my first for ages.
I used a kit called Holly Jolly by Nancie Rowe Janitz of ScrapArtist.com. I also made a quick page for Logan's album. I have been working on a paper version since Saturday but I just haven't had the time to finish it yet!
This used a kit from Anastasia Folmon at digiscrapboutique, and a freebie snowman from Ellie Lash. I also managed 2 paper layouts over the weekend. Both were part of the 365 challenge. One used the page prompt from week 1 which was to record your goals for the year. I decided to go for something a bit different for me and made a page with quite a girly feel to it. I had bought some Prima Crystals from an American scraps store and sort of based the whole colour scheme round them, sad I know! I used BG paper, American Crafts Thickers for the title and fab flowers from Imaginisce. Totally not my usual style.
I also scrapped the pic I took of my hands, but one things my hands couldn't do was make it straight! It wasn't until I had finished it I realised how squint it was. Not good. For this one I used Creative Imaginations lettering and epoxy stickers along with some chipboard and rub ons. I like the overall feel of this page but again it was different to what I would normally do.
I really wanted to get some more scrapping done but I simply ran out of time. Hoefully this weekend will be a bit more productive but somehow I can't see it. It seems to be filling up with other stuff already. Anyway, I am now off to bed with a book because the alarm will sound all too soon in the morning. Take care x x x
