Layouts

I’ve had so many people ask me lately if I am still scrapbooking. It is such a hard question to answer because my heart so so so wants to be. . . I would love to be getting my memories in books and I’d love to get back into publishing and designing. . . BUT I’ve had many strong impressions that have led me to feel it is very critical that I am to avoid distractions on my role as a mother right now. And since scrapbooking can be so distracting for me, it is one thing that gets laid aside. I know this isn’t the answer for everyone because people balance things differently, but for me, it is what I must do right now. And really, I’m okay with it because I am loving what I’m doing.

Still. . . . every now and again I start itching for a creative fix and I’ll pull out the paper and glue and do something simple and document something that needs a home on a scrapbook page. So that’s what these are. . . . nothing really special design-wise (in fact they are a lift from 2 peas) but I’m so glad to have these things recorded.

Guess I’d better hit the books now. . . I signed up for an independent study class so I can work on renewing my teaching certificate but I decided that I needed to have a little fun before I started on that. Now the fun is over and it's time to dig into the studies. . .
