TIMS 12 TAGS OF 2012

TIM'S 12 TAGS OF 2012  - ( Click for link )

I was soooo excited to read this on Tims blog. Ive been thinking for a couple weeks that I reallly want to make sure I work on something just for me this year, and while ive started and want to work on an art journal I just keep finding I lose the time and drive to do it at times.  Sooooo reading Tims blog has me all inspired and the light bulb went off.... Instead of doing these as tags im going to do them as mini pages! So a mini album full of tim goodness and inspiration! That way it takes a little out of the what to do' thoughts, and it gives me alll month to finish it. Soooooo hopefully Ill be back to show you my feb installment before the end of feb! :) feeling rather excited!!!! 

Okay back to creating another class page... xx

Believe it or not!!!!!!

I have show and tell!!!!!!!

Not much but some! After alot of prodding, I am trying to remember to take photos of pages again and post them. Quite a few ive forgotten, but alas I have remembered some!!! 

1. My hometown..... A page for my Book of Me Class at SCRAPBOOK SINNERS next week. Embossing, inking, distressing, stitching, cricut cutting, more inking. Was really happy with how this page turned out!

2. Celebrate.... A page on the boys 9th Birthday. WOW still cant believe how quick the years go. This is next weeks Wednesday/Thursday nights weekly page class page. Lots of inking, punching, Cutting, hidden journalling, (using my latest rejuvenated toy - the crimper thingy... the name is escaping me at the moment.)

This first pic shows the pull out hidden journalling and incorporating extra photos.

This is the page with the hidden journalling in its hidey hole.

And a close up showing some of the dimension, inking, cutting, crimping in the page.

3.... DISCOVER..... I USED YELLOW!!!! Some peeps will not believe it unless they see it for themselves... so i HAD to take a pic to post to prove it is infact true!!!!!

This page is a just because page at this time.... who knows, it might end up being a class at some point cos Im pretty happy with it!! Love this MME papers .... even tho I am not a fan of yellows.... :)

4.... The last show n tell for today I think.... This is a mini album cover I made out of grunge paper... Have seen a few ones floating around in cyberspace, so had to have a play. The colours in the photo are realllly crappy, but gives an idea... irl its more tones of brown and looks more like leather like i wanted it too... Still have to work on whats going inside it yet, so hope to share more of it as i do it!

I think I feeling a little bit of mojo lately!!! huuuuge relief. working on another page at the moment and hoping I get it finished asap, need to stop procrastinating!!!! Maybe I will have more to share over the weekend!! Have a good weekend :) TFL xxxxx

MMMmmmmmmmmmmmm

What more can I say !!! 

Oh to use the term ive read twice today.... craftogasm alert haha :)

Just got this book in the post this morning, have wanted it for a while and love reading the blog, so have been a little engrossed. Huuuuuge amount of food for thought book. And actually alot takes me back to uni days and thoughts and questions I had then.... Will be great to read in between sorting out THE ROOM OF BOXES!! if I can tear myself away from the book long enough to get back to THE ROOM! haha

Okay... so THE ROOM is.... my embarassing archillies heel. What was/is suppose to be my crafting scrapping room of pleasure has become the homes dumping ground. Albeit mostly scrap n craft stuff, others have shoved things in boxes and put them in there too hoping I wouldnt notice! Working night classes I have this habit of getting home not long before midnight too tired to unpack properly, then the next day getting ready for class havent got time to go thru it so empty the contents of the tote into a box and proceed to fill it with stuff for that night. It only takes a month or so of this and the room of boxes appears again too quickly! SO i MUST find a way to overcome this. Sort it out. Get it functional. Maintain it! It's my ambition for this year :) Plus I need to cull cull cull.... but first must organize and get it into some kind of logic.... hehe If you dont hear from me for a few days, hear a slight echo of a voice... check I might be stuck under a pile of scrap stuff. 

PHOTOS...............

A rehashed quote that resonates with me....

PHOTOS inspire me to want to go places,

PLACES inspire me to make me want to take photos.
