Hello Chaos, how are you?
Supplies: All the papers and the butterflies are from the Caldera kit by The Queen of Quirk, plus these negative frames and these borders by Carina Gardner and trim from this kit by Holly McCaig.
Ever have a day that starts with extreme organisation then spirals into pure crazy? That would be today in ShimWorld. I’ve been to those places you go only when trouble abounds: two different auto repair places (and still no car outside our place) and the confidential customer service desk at the bank (where they let you sit when they don’t want all the bank patrons to know just how much they have messed up lately). I came home and opened the curtains to let the sunshine blast away all of that, only to find the window pane has been smashed. Does it put my day in perspective if I tell you I did some ironing to calm down?
Thankfully I think I have managed to put it all into perspective now: broken cars and broken glass can be fixed. It is really not that much of a big deal. If anyone ever figures out why these things throw us so much, I’d appreciate a memo.
So once upon a time, I had a plan for an exceedingly well-thought out blog post. I think that plan has been thrown far, far through that broken window. Instead, I give you assorted notes in bullet point form:
...the winner of the free place on Go To Press is Beth. I’ll be in touch with your class sign up details tomorrow morning!
...tomorrow (Wednesday) I’ll be doing a live chat at 8pm UK time // 2pm Central time. Come say hello and chat away with me! The chat will be here as part of a three day online CHA party—but we can chat about anything you like!
...the digital page above is my answer to this weekly challenge to scraplift yourself. I lifted a paper page from 2005 with a new favourite digi kit.
...and now I have a question for you! I want to update a little research I did a while back. When do you scrapbook? Weekends? Evenings? Daytime during the week? Please let me know in the comments! Thanks!
