For 2011 I have
decided to add my scrapping to the priority list. For me, creativity is an outlet, therapy, and all about me! Keeping this in mind I also realize...
... so I am releasing myself to do only the projects I am
inspired to do, I want to do, and I have time to do. So maybe the kid's "Baby Books" will continue to sit in a box... along with most of the holiday pictures, annual trips, and the "regular" events. No more will I challenge myself to
cram 12 photos on one layout to make sure everyone there was represented-
lol! Instead, I will scrap the little things I do not want to forget. I will scrap for me according to me... not for anyone else or the calendar. I will let my scrapping be meaningful, focused, and full of joy! I would love to make things for the love of making things and use things I think are fun, pretty, and speak to me. So here we go...
I am taking this Ali Edwards class over at Big Picture Scrapbooks... check it out!
I am also going to give Project 12 a shot... I would love to do some of the
weekly or even daily projects floating around in
bloggy world, but this is the one for me!
I might even tryout for a desing team or start a little etsy shop- just for me!
I came across this beautiful paper 
I feel like I could pluck these flowers right off the page!
As mentioned in a past post, I am following along with Project 12 at Scrapbook & Cards Today with Davinie Fiero! Here is my take on the January sketch. I had so much fun with this LO. I am so happy I have chosen to give up my old chronological ways... FREEDOM!... but, this project keeps me a little comfortable.
The pictures are of the major January events and the journaling is pretty much our calendar written in words!
I knew I wanted to use doilies... lovin' them these days!
Another doily- you want some, huh?
