So here is the deal...

It's a fact that I haven't scrapped much lately. I was coming to the sad realization that my creativeness had eluded me. I was ready to throw in the towel. Hang it up. Clear it out. But THEN, something happened this weekend! Something just clicked, and I whipped out 3 layouts....one right after the other!! Aaah, it feels so good to be back in the swing of things!!

Pencil Lines Sketch #92

I was so in the mood to scrap Sunday, but lately I'm having the hardest time getting started!! Can't decide on a pic, can't decide on my papers, can't decide what format to use....it's pathetic, I tell ya!! So anyway, I'm all the time visiting the Pencil Lines blog to get inspiration 'cause that DT over there rocks the sketches every week!! And when I saw the new sketch for this week, let's just say the spirit hit me!! This is what I came up with.

Let's try this again.

I don't really know why I thought I could keep a blog updated regularly. Maybe because I'm not scrapping as much as I used to? Between working evening shift and it being summer, I'm just not being as productive. That being said, I do have a few projects to show you.

These first couple of cards are the sketches at My Sketch World for May and June. I also have my July card finished, but you'll have to wait 'til the end of the month to see it. Make sure you go ahead and check out the blog to see all the great sketches!






















And here are a couple of layouts that I've whipped up...

Whoa!!

I've posted 3 days in a row!! So how do ya like that? huh? do ya? do ya? Yeah, well, don't get used to.....it's just a freak accident that happened that way. So anyway, got to play in my mounds of scrappin' goodness last night, and this is what resulted :) Most everything came in the Label Tulip March kit 'cept for the older stuff like the MM woven letters and the Chatterbox bg paper I drug outta my stash. And that adorable photo is yours truly here at about age 3 :) Enjoy!

catching up....

since I haven't been posting like a good little girl should.

Check it out!!

The latest card sketch is up on My Sketch World! I just love seeing how everyone interprets the sketch in such different ways! Go grab you some inspiration and see what you can come up with
Here's mine....

I'm such a sucker!!

Sucker for challenges anyway! So of course when I saw this awesome new challenge blog, I bookmarked it right away!! It's called The Design Experiment, and the first challenge was to write a note to your younger self. I'm not one to do a whole lot of journaling, but there was just something about this challenge that made me want to do it. Of course, by the time I got mine finished, they already have challenge #2 posted. Better late than never though, right?? Besides, that's just another layout completed for me! And oh yeah, if you're wanting to read the journaling, just click on the pic for a larger view. To type all that here....well, I'm just not feelin' it ;)
