TV, Layouts and life....

Well, I've been watching Mr. Show through my netflix and I've really enjoyed it so far.  Bob and David are freakin' hilarious.  If you haven't seen it, it's kind of a sketch type show.  Quite funny and it was on HBO when it first started (in the late 90s) so you know what that means.  Yep, lots of cursing.  I find myself laughing out loud in my apartment alone.  :)

Anyway, other than that, not much is going on.  Just scrapping...  here are two pages I finished today.  The scans aren't the best, but hopefully they will give you an idea.  The pages look much better IRL.






I have to say, I'm in love with these angel wing stamps I picked up a while ago.  They are soooo awesome and I've used them on three layouts in the past week.  Craziness.  Another item I've been using a lot lately is chipboard letters.  Not sure why I just started this recently.... I've had chipboard alphabets for a while.... but I've been using a lot of my supplies lately, instead of collecting stuff to use.  I have an organization problem, which I am noticing when I look for things to scrap with from my stash.  I don't always know what I have and through my organization, I've found a few duplicates.  Paper, stickers, etc.  Luckily, not high dollar items, but still.  It's frustrating to have too much stuff and feel like I never will use it all up!  grr....

I'm gonna have to get a better organization system down.  It takes too long to decide what paper to use for each page.  I also don't realize what I have and get ideas for other projects while I'm looking for something else.  Ugh...

New pages and some therapy...

I made a couple layouts and one of them was an emotional roller coaster.  It was a good exercise for me, though.  Helped me to sit down, think about the good and bad about a situation and journal and create (the therapeutic part).  


I've been scrapbooking a lot these days.... cards are kind of taking a backseat (though, they are still my first LOVE). Most of the layouts I've been doing are challenges from the ladies on my myspace group.    It's been great motivation!

Busy week.....

So this week hasn't been busy in the sense of me having a lot of things to leave the house for, but definitely busy around the house.  Mainly in my scraproom.

I've been creating as much as possible.  Here are few pages I've finished:





Okay, so I should get some rest.  I'm excited for tomorrow's projects.  :)

I found an awesome quote today.... I really really love this one.....

I read and walked for miles at night along the beach, writing bad blank verse and searching endlessly for someone wonderful who would step out of the darkness and change my life. It never crossed my mind that that person could be me.
