Getting back on the horse...thanks to a friend :)


So a friend whom I have grown to love and admire posted the sweetest thing on my FB page the other day about missing my blog. I never knew people really read it and to be honest...that might have been the nicest compliment I have received in a long, long time. I know..a bit cheestastic but it feels good to know it.
xoxoxo Mel :)  
Thank you for brining me back to something I love and missed. Do I scrap as much?  No...but I still do a little and you know I got somethin' to say! LOL!

So wanna see something I made?  I did this layout a little bit ago for Core using our Core Cuts line and it makes me all sortys of happy. We love going to the St Patty's day parade around here and I jsut wanted to play with some colors. FUN and BRIGHT colors like the Core cuts collection pack has. And, of course, Owen brightens my day, too. ;) 

So I am all sorts of happy today. Feeling like I found a piece of me that might have been missing and it is my creative outlet. I need to scrap more. I need to give myself time to be creative and share it like I used to. 

It makes me a better person...captures memories for my family and, most importantly, it may help get some of these unused papers out of my studio!

That's a bit of our Core Couture sparkly goodness and the shamrock shapes are Lifestyle Crafts dies.



Thanks so much for the push, Mel! I will be back next week I promise!  
We are hopping with May Arts and Stampendous so it's gonna be fun and I have TWO projects for next week. Holla!

Nice to see you back to blogging. Although, I can't really complain much because I haven't been doing it myself. But, I am working on a post, just need to finish it and hit the publish button! Love the bright colors of your page. I am actually going to go slip down to the basement where it's cool and get my scrap on for the first time in many many weeks :)
