Never Say Never

Saving my current designs for later!

Old Stuff & One Current: The first ten layouts are my personal 8x8 format I began designing in in early 2006. I was a 12x12 scrapper to the core but for gifts I'd do smaller sizes. I never thought I'd want this size for myself but I came to love the fact that it took half the time or less than a 12x12. . .and something began to change for me, I wanted to be less complicated. After ten years of passionate scrapbooking, I've come to understand the creative process in simpler terms. One is always evolving as we learn & experiment. . .Never Say Never. . .I used to say, I'll never scrap just one photo---right! I'll never use blah-blah technique! Bad habit of mine while being a Scrapbook Critic. Because I've discovered while creating, I am in the thick of having the best time doing what I said I'd never do! Who's the critic dummy now?

I love marking the days with photography, journaling, & lots of expensive art junk!

The first layout, is a candid shot of my kids. . .Noah just shot his little arms up when I said "Say Cheese", I have no idea why but it is absolutely breathtaking to me! Last photo is a current Circle Journal entry I need to do in a book entitled Cliches (Jen's fab book) I began last night---is it not delicious?! Can you guess my cliche? I have lots of new stuff to show you later on!
