Ok I'm no ATC queen but I really like what I've done. So quick to do too, once you've got the idea. I may make a few more one offs this week just for myself!
I scrapped 3 layouts this weekend so I think I've earned some 'other craft' time. Hee Hee. I'm really happy with those 3 layouts too. I'm on a creative roll atm. I've really been inspired by blogs and sketches, I don't really expect to win the comps I'm entering but by doing so I'm forcing myself to complete a layout before the due date. So I've been averaging a layout a week. I'm really loving the whole process again. I may share some later, I'm not to sure about comp entries and sharing!! (shrug)
I also cleaned up my ribbons (gasp! shock! horror!) I'd been storing them in large plastic fruit jars. You know the SPC two fruits ones. But every time I needed a ribbon I had to empty out the whole jar. They use to be colour sorted into boy/girl, but I got lazy, so lately I'd been emptying 2 containers. Wasting time!! So I spent one night winding them all onto bobbins to store in a tackle box. And Dah, Daaaaa, here's my result....
Actually, stole the idea of my mum, but it so works. I've still got a jar full of fibres and scraps, but I'll probably never use them, so they can stay there. Some where a little too thick so were cut into managable lengths or rolled and stored on end in the corner compartment. *****Thanks MUM****. One day I may actually get around to doing the chippie storage I keep waffling about.
Anyhow, back up to Perth tomorrow for DH to get his plaster changed and some new drugs. He's developed a 'resistance'to the ones he's got. I told him ask for different not stronger. Last thing I need is a pain killer addict on my hands.
I'll catch you later.
