PCC #114 and my crafty day

Hi Everyone!

This is week #114 at PaperCrafters Corner!


When I first saw this week's inspiration all I could think was 'what am I going to do with this?'I don't travel anywhere. I could have gone with the colors but I wasn't thrilled with them. I didn't think I was going to enter this week.....until I saw the pattern in the border. I had a Gelli print with that same pattern!
You should give this challenge a try. :)


While I had my Gelli prints out I made 2 more cards.



All the cards use Unity stamps.

I've had a lot of time to create lately. My daughter is away at school, hubby works everyday, and until I have my eye surgery I can't drive. Since I'm home I thought I would show you what happens when I get crafty.


As you can see from the photo I worked on my scrapbook, made some cards, and pulled out way too much! 
I started off  working on my scrapbooks. The table was fairly clear....at first. When I pocket scrapbook I first put in all the pictures. Then the cards. Then the embellishments. Then the journaling. I really don't like the last step. I used to use my computer for the journaling  but my printer decided it doesn't like card stock. So, lately I've been using (GASP) my own handwriting! That's something I didn't think I would EVER do.  That's a good thing, right?

Ok, back to the scrapbook for me! This one covers 4 years ('96-'99) and is almost done. Hopefully I won't get too lost in the memories :)
See you next time!!

  1. It is fun to get lost in your memories. Lovely cards. My table top gets that way as well whether I do layouts or cards.

  2. I guess we all have the same "cluttered desk" problem when crafting! I sort of have 2 craft rooms (one where most of my stuff is & the other where I actually work) so when I get up from the working desk, I try to bring at least 2-3 things back to the "stuff" room to put it away. lol
    Your cards are just lovely - love butterflies!

  5. I was just looking at that inspiration piece before I started commenting. There are all sorts of ways to go with it, but I am totally loving your Gelli print cards!!! It's good to make a mess when you are crafting.....that's what artists do, right??? (I hope....) Thanks for sharing your wonderful cards.
