Its been a long while......

     It really has been quite awhile since I have been able to post on my blog and especially finish any DT work but I have finally accomplished something! Yippee! During Easter Break last week I was able to clear a spot in the craft room and sit down to start and (yes really)finish a project. It seems that teaching pretty much full time and working at the studio really leaves me with little creative time sadly enough. I was very happy to steal a few hours to myself to sit down and get creative although I have to say the mojo is really not there. I was able to complete this one piece for the Try it on Tuesday challenge so all was not lost.

     The Challenge theme this fortnight over at the Try it on Tuesday Challenge blog is "New Beginnings" So we would like to see anything relating to baby, new home, new job, wedding etc. I chose to scrapbook this picture of my daughter from a very long time ago sleeping next to my husband. She looks so peaceful. So hard to imagine this little sweetie grew into my very opinionated, wacky and very tall daughter. Yes she has outgrown me and is still sprouting.


     For this layout I used Patterned paper(Sorry I do not know the name as I cut off the strip a long while ago.), Prima flowers along with miniature handmade paper roses. Chip board letters and flourishes, paint, ink, burlap and a few other bits I had around.
So I now send you over to the Try it on Tuesday blog to see some fab creations by my team mates and also browse through and meet some of our newest members. They are such a great bunch. Once over there you can link up your creations and share them with us in the challenge. We cannot wait to see them.

Thanks for stopping by and with any luck hopefully it will not be too long before my next post.

Have a great week!
