The kids have gone back to school after 3 weeks and 1 day on hols (and who is counting) we have finally got back into our routine. Steve can work again without being interrupted by the kids. The 14 week old pup Bronson is sleeping through the night, eating well, putting on weight and keeping Benji well and truly occupied. Life on the home front is once again ...dare I say it....NORMAL!!
At the shop I am getting used to our new hours and am enjoying opening all the new stock that has been arriving. I'm like a kid in a lolly shop each time I open a box - but scapbooking products are better than lollies!!
In the slideshow (on the right) I have included the photos from our Scrapbooking weekend away this year. Have a look - they're great!
Plans are under way for some exciting Christmas classes - we are already putting together the annual Christmas Card classes and we will once again have mini books and more off the page projects for everyone.
Sharon showed me an article this week that asks the question
"What's The Best Scrapbooking Advice You've Ever Received?"
I'd love it if you would share with us all, here at my blog, the answer to that question. What advice have you been given or read in a mag somewhere that has helped you in your scrapping journey.
Here's my tip...I tell this to everyone, especially in my classes...
There are no mistakes in scrapbooking - if you think you've made one then look at it as the perfect opportunity to embellish!!
You know what I find the hardest thing is with scrapbooking - TIME - I know that we all find it hard to put aside time to do a page, so this week I am setting myself a goal to complete a double page layout by the end of the week. That's a simple enough task. (Isn't it?)
Why don't you do the same, go on, one double page FINISHED by next Friday!!
I'll show you mine then - here on my blog.
GOOD LUCK (I think I'll need it too).
