Using old stock......easier said than done!!

I am trying sooo hard to be good and use up as much of my stash as possible!! Hmm....easier said than done! Especially when I pop into Pastimes and see the delicious new stock arriving daily. Gorgeous Xmas papers and embellishments have arrived already, they look great! I am also trying to slow down my page process, I am trying to incorporate some other techniques that I haven't used in awhile. I find that I get into a routine of using the same techniques over and over again, and it sometimes gets too comfortable, easy and predictable! Do you do this too? Therefore I am going back through some completed pages and re using those techniques that I haven't used in a long time. It is so easy to get stuck in a rut!!
Happy scrapping!

Ahhhh Sundays....

What a great day, had 2 extra kids over for the weekend, my 2 were therefore occupied, therefore i got stuck into some pages!!! Especially today....weather was grotty, got quite a few pages done. Not fancy and detailed but done, and sometimes that's what counts....done and dusted. Have a great week everyone, how many pages can you get "done" this week??

Inspiration !

What a great few days! Returned from a quick trip across the Tasman and am re- inspired! It was wonderful to stroll the streets of Melbourne and take it all in. Fantastic architecture, latice work on the buildings and muted colours. Repeated patterns of metal schrolls and plenty of photographic opportunities. A delicious hotel in the centre of town, awesome rugby match, and a break from the daily routine, what more could a girl ask for! Have returned and got back into scrapping, am going through a phase of using of my stashed supply rather than sprinting out and loading up on new stuff. Roll on Monday night, catch up time at Pastimes, scrapping with the girls! *sigh* Happy scrapping everyone......:)
