Getting some creative time on a weekend is always a challenge. I am lucky enough to have my own space where I can snatch a few minutes to create - even when we have a house full of visitors. Luckily, it was in-laws (who were here from lunchtime Friday to Sunday afternoon) and they are very understanding!
I actually got to complete two more layouts - one for a NCJS monthly sketch challenge, and the other one is a page for the album I am doing about my parent's lives.
This is the sketch challenge - I really enjoyed this one! Lots of circle cutting!
This one, although alot simpler, was harder to do. I like doing heritage layouts but want to make sure they keep their 'old world' essence but also look fresh. I don't have alot of information regarding this photo so the text is very basic. I am happy with it's simplicity though.
As I was going through documents and photos yesterday afternoon I started to feel quite overwhelmed at the amount of work I still have to do. Actually, I shouldn't call it work! I love spending time sorting, re-arranging, browsing, pondering and then to the final creation and its completion! Oh what a feeling! I know that I will never be bored as I will always have some scrapping or card making to do!
Here are another couple of layouts I did after our tour of inner city laneways, searching the street art of Melbourne.
Well, how do you eat an elephant? Chunk by chunk of course! So, when a daunting task is in front of you, just attack it bit by bit!
So, till next time ...
