Forever Beloved

i finally scrapped…last night i actually did four layouts and two art journal pages.  and it felt sooooooo good.  getting through the first page was the worst but once i finished it the ideas just seemed to flow.  i was in my element totally.  it has been ages since i staid up most of the night making art…loved it.

you also know i have a love/hate relationship with sewing.  at eleven last night i got the urge to sew.  i figured it would be the perfect opportunity to work on a project i have been wanting to do…a tshirt quilt.  i have saved all our  old shirts for a few years now…i cut the fronts into a twelve by twelve section…sewed them together…and attached them to an old quilt i had…the cutest thing ever for real.  i will take pics of it tomorrow.  its just a lap quilt but gosh is it cute.

today was joes first day off in the last two weeks so we decided to head to altoona for the day.  we had such a fun time.  it was a much needed day.  we ate at red lobster and walked around the mall…such fun.

out for now

i was so so excited to scrap last night…i went in the attic and got some of my scrappy supplies out (mistake #1…packing them away in the attic).  once the kids went to bed i flew into my scrap room and sat down, the creativity was flowing and i was feeling good…i had all the papers picked out, added my pic and then some stickers…and then BAM, i hit a wall and my mind went blank…this is what seems to happen to me every time i try to scrap…i get so far and then just can’t seem to get past it.  i left everything out and plan on finishing it tonight…and i think once i finish one lo it will get the mojo going…and i hope to scrap late into the night like old days!!!  and i will be SURE to upload them here for you to see!

out for now
