After all the busyness of the last few months, I’ve been feeling the affect of the lack of creativity in my life. In other words, crafting = happiness. There’s a definite affect on my mood when I don’t create and every time I say I won’t let that happen…well, life happens. I did manage to…

October Scrapbook Workshop
Again….long time, no see…I mean…no post. Every spare minute seems to be spent on school-related responsibilities. I’ve had virtually no time to create or even respond to many emails (if I owe you an email, I promise, I’ll be in touch soon). However, today I did put the pile of papers that need grading to…
33 days?
Really? It’s been 33 days since the last time I posted to my blog? It hardly seems possible. Where does the time go? Has anyone ever solve that mystery?! You can always tell when school is starting and ending. I disappear from the blogging world. 😦 I must say I’ve missed it. I do enjoy…
Final CTMH Convention Album Contest Layout
Okay. Here is the last of the five layouts I entered into the album contest at convention. This is the layout where I stayed up until about 5 a.m. in the hotel room completing. I had to stay up so late, because I was exhausted and stressed out and my creative mojo was nowhere to…
CTMH Convention Album Contest Layout #4
This is the fourth of the five layouts that I entered into the album contest earlier this month at the Close To My Heart Convention. As I mentioned in this post, I didn’t start these pages until a week before I left for convention. I completed this layout the night before I flew out to…
CTMH Convention Album Contest Layout #3
The following is the third layout of my contest submission. It focuses on the couple that I studied the Bible with and how we came to meet and how my life, particularly my spiritual life has changed…for the better, I may add…since we met. In the original baptism photos, the tile was a bright yellow…
CTMH Convention Album Contest Layout #2
The second layout in my Close To My Heart Convention Album Contest was a layout that highlighted my grandparents. My grandparents did for me, what so many grandparents do today. They raised my brother and I. There was a lot of journaling that chronicled the events in my life that led to my brother and I…
CTMH Convention Album Contest
On Tuesday, July 3rd, I sat in my craft room with nothing to do. Yeah, I know. That never happens. But I was done with my convention swap cards, club layouts, etc. and couldn’t really start on anything else, since I knew in a week I would be looking to get my hands on brand…
July Scrapbooking Workshop Layouts
Here are the layouts that we will be creating at July’s Monthly Scrapbooking Workshop. As you will see, we will be using a really great masculine line of CTMH paper called Victory. I’m really loving this paper, especially the ledger and green (key?) piece. This month, both of my layouts are designed by me…
June's Scrapbooking Workshop Layouts
Here are the layouts that we will be creating at June’s Monthly Scrapbooking Workshop. Last month I was behind, but now I’m a month ahead. Woo-hoo!!! That never happens. However, I have had something I don’t get too much of….time! I’ve snuck away to a wonderful scrapbook retreat called Escape to Create in Pt. St….
