The end of the month always finds me a bit frazzled. I am always worried about getting that last perfect DT layout completed for my friends at Two Scrapbook Friends. However, as many of you may have read in my previous posts that I have been undergoing a 'transformative' process with my scrapbooking! Sounds pretty complicated for something my dear, dear husband calls :Sticker Fun! But to a lifelong, hardcore scrapper like me, it is a very very big deal. Through my classes with Karen Grunberg at Big Picture Classes, I have been slowly Finding My Way with my scrapbooking style. This month's end I felt excitement! I was thrilled to sit down and look at my supplies and create three layouts I adored! Three whole layouts that I cann honestly say I feel reflect my style and that I am so genuinely proud of the result. Don't get me wrong, I am not suddenly in the same league with all the scrapbooking greats like Karen, but I am happy with my results and look forward to keeping this process going. I am anxious to keep delving into MORE about what it takes for me to love what I am producing; both for myself and for those who have honoured me with DT positions. Thanks for keeping up with me on this journey. I encourage you to maybe do the same..check out Karen's classes at Big Picture. Maybe it's not the right time for you..or maybe you are in a scrapping rut. But it really worked for me and my MOJO is OVERflowing!
Now for thanks for listening. Here's what you have all been waiting for! Sneak Peeks for the April 1st release! Please forgive the photo quality I am having camera/computer problems!
Here's a layout I called "GO" it from a quote from Dr. Seuss. maybe you know it?
The second Sneak Peek is of a layout of my DD when she was a baby. It has misting, layering and of course, some sewing!
Finally, my favourite! I call this happy. I used Kraft background, which I have never done before! I also painted (never done before) and sewed a banner. In fact I sewed so many places I couldn't count them all!
Watch for the big releases on Friday at Two Scrapbook Friends, my fellow Design Team Members are so very very talented. Also watch for the big release for the April 1st sketch at My Sketch World. My work for the folks at MSW will appear April 15th. Lots to look forward to! Until then drop me a line and let me know what you think of my new found scrappy epiphany!
Doing what love, hope you are too!
