WIP – Wednesday

CHA stuff almost done (as you can see by my messy desk!)

Yesterday (Christmas) we decided to do some reorganizing so my daughter could have a desk meaning my “crafting area” looks like a nuclear bomb went off.

WIP Wednesday

I decided this weekend to start (re)scrapbooking my High School years.

Paperclay Design Team Project 1 – Forget-Me-Nots Album

Recently (four years ago) I went through and started redoing my baby books because all my photos were on the old magnetic, acid filled pages. In scrapbook years I am 4 almost 5 – I guess that is better than my own kids in scrapbooking years. I found an 8″x8″ blank photo album that has … Continue reading →
