So did you spend Saturday or part of the weekend scrappin'? Feeling happy and on a creative high or completely spent and slightly bleary eyed this morning???
Either way, I hope you got some time to enjoy this hobby we all love so much!
I did get to scrap this weekend. For quite a bit of time actually. It is so nice to scrap for more than a few minutes here and there. I love to be able to sit for a couple hours in a row and really get into a project. It is a real luxury which I am grateful to my husband for. He kept the kidlets occupied Saturday morning and I got crafty. Made a mini album (more about that in a minute) and later that evening after the kidlets stayed in bed I got to play again and made another mini album! Oh ya, I was in the zone! LOL
I did feel as if I had a crafty hangover Sunday morning when I sat to work to on some pages (kidlets were out!) and I just sort of sat there pushing things around. Felt nicely all used up from the day before. I said to my hubby it is not often that I get to say I need to take a break cause I have done so much scrapping! LOL Was a nice and contented feeling.
I did do some more scrapping last night after the kidlets were in bed and I think cause I had taken a break during the day (and spent the day before being creative) I felt like I was on a creative high. I ended up creating a page that really made me happy. I mean every little bit of it was just right to me. It has been awhile since I have been so creatively satisfied with a page. Since before that crazy creative overflow a few weeks back actually.
And you know what is great -the page is for someone else. I was creating a page for someone and it is a wonderful feeling that it turned out so right. I am mailing it off to her today so once she gets it I hope she will let me share it here. I definitely want her to see it first. :)
So, now I need to show you some of my creativeness from the weekend!
I worked on class planning for the GASC and created this mini album for my Heart & Home class.




This class is sponsored by MAMBI and it is going to be awesome!
I love this little book and the products we are using.
In this class we will be making a little album that is all mixed up! Some pages are house shaped, some are circles and some are hearts. Plus there are some clear pages as well as some made of chipboard. So fun to work with albums like this because even before you decorate it they look good! As you can see it is full of bright colors and will really suit any family theme.
This class, called Heart & Home, will be offered at both the Arlington, TX and the Chantilly, VA Great American Scrapbook Conventions. Times and dates as follows:
- Arlington, TX - Thursday June 5th - 11:00-12:30pm
- Chantilly, VA - Friday June 20th - 6:00-7:30pm
I hope to see you there! :)
Oh and a reminder - registration for Arlington, TX closes Thursday May 15th at 11:59 EST - so if you were planning on coming you better get a move on! LOL There will be class registration the day of the show but your best bet is to register now to make sure you have a spot in the class you want. Most of my classes are either sold out or almost sold out so get your butt in gear and sign up! Pronto! I want to see you :)
