As most of us know, time is a valuable commodity and recently, it's totally escaped me. I've not been feeling well and time seems to slip away faster each day, or at least it seems that way. I find myself in bed early at night, just soon after the girls are in bed and because of this I haven't had much time to do...well....anything.
I realized yesterday that I haven't had the opprotunity to pick up a tape runner, pair of scissors or emblishment since March. I haven't been very motivated recently, and haven't found that one picture that screams to me "PLEASE SCRAP ME"! But while reading my friend Dodi's blog, I saw the perfect idea, which you can find here and right then and there I knew I had a new project to complete. It was P.E.R.F.E.C.T for the end of the school year and I immediately went out and purchased all of the pieces. I'll alter it in my own way to suit the picture in my tired brain but know it will be great in the end. So...tonight? Construction. Creativeness. Freedom. Meditation. Time for ME. I am going to lock myself in my craft room and do what I love to do best, create a wonderful gift for someone else to cherish (and maybe while I'm in there...clean up the complete DISASTER of a mess I left after my last project....NAH).
I hope to take some pics to post for you soon, so you can see the finished product. I hope once my "illness" settles down, whatever it is, I'll start to feel more like myself..scrapping...blogging...laughing...until then, enjoy this layout which was part of the recent project completed in March. This is my nephew Freddie who is the happiest, most adorable little boy I've ever seen! It's not the best picture I've taken of a layout, it was super sunny which cast shadows on the white card stock, but nothing I can do since I'm no longer in possession of this :o)
Until then, check out this site....a book I read about today which I MUST have on my night stand. I don't have a son, but the message is just as wonderful for my daughters....check it out here
Have a great night, ciao!
