Getting my creative MoJo going again!

I spent some time this past week sorting and organizing my scrapbooking gear and printing out photos for the April retreat at Timberline Ranch. I'm getting my MoJo on!

I have a large task at hand, it's called "Project Kate". Literally, I have a tote marked with this and it has been staring me in the face for months! The time has come to get busy.

My niece is now 18 months old; I've digi scrapped tons of pages and I've made several hybrid pieces of art, calendars, board books and other altered items ... all gifts! Nothing for me!

I have a grand total of 6 paper scrapbook pages in my own album. How sad is that!? So I printed out my favorite digital photos of Kate and have all my page kits ready to roll for the retreat. It's my main focus for the retreat weekend. I even have a lovely leather pink album ready for the pages.

I also got my creative MoJo happening on Monday night... I created a canvas scrapbook art piece for DH & I.
I'll leave you with some card creations.... I'm happy to say that I have enough cards to carry me through for a few months now!

OK, no fair posting so much at one time. I will have to make all my comments on this post, because I do not have the patients to make individual posts.

So with the being said. I am so jelous you have pictures ready to scrap in April and I have a crop in 14 days and have not printed one picture yet. Love the art piece you made, just beautiful.

Also good luck with your smoking battle, between you and Shell you may just talk me right out of them.

And last but not least. I Love Love Love Just Love your hair!!!

I am getting mine highlighted next week.

I am catching up on my blog reads this morning! LOVE your hair - love the style and the colour is gorgeous. I need to book myself in for a trim - my hair is so long now but at the moment its all taggy and uneven on the ends and annoying the crap out of me.

Love all the *works* you have been doing you have been busy!

Well done too on the step down program. I am still going strong - but some days it is so tough - today is one of those days where I could just murder a cigarette - well probably until I tried one anyway!
