Sorry for the delay

Ok, I really want to apologize here for the delay in my posts. I mean, practically half of the year has gone by!!! Sorry! I don't know what I have been doing, I just haven't felt motivated enough to upload anything. And sometimes I get discouraged after I see all of the beautiful work out there. I think "My stuff will never look that good". But, I have to remind myself why I started scrapbooking. The reason I started was to create memory albums to pass on to my children and to their children and so on. I can remeber sitting at my Grandma's house looking at her very very old black and white photos. I didn't know the people in the pictures but I knew that they were my history and I thought it was neat to look back at where I came from. I am going to get back on the wagon and I'm going to try my hardest to post here more often. I love doing crafts, especially scrapbooking b/c looking at pictures of my kids makes me happy and brings back those memories that we had while I took the pictures. I'm not going to worry about whether or not my pages are blogworthy or not I will just post my favorites and maybe we can create some relationships and share some ideas! Thanks for checking me out!

2010 is on a roll...

Am I really going to start this?? Guess so! I've decided to start a blog mostly b/c I love going to the Cricut messageboards and it seems like everyone has a blog!! I would love to post some simple projects I've done with instructions but I'm not very computer savy so I thought it would be easier to just create a blog, and send any questions here.

My main goal for 2010 is to scrapbook a page a day. My house isn't big enough to have my own scrapbooking room so I scrapbook at our dining room table. I find myself not wanting to drag all of my supplies out unless I'm going to get a lot done. So, after I decided on my goal, I set up a card table in the corner of our dining room and I'm going to leave all of my supplies there. If we are going to have company I always know ahead of time so I can just put my card table away before they get here. Anyways, my point is that since my supplies are out in the open I have found it much easier to sit down and create a page here and there. So far this year I have completed 18 pages. So...I guess that means I'm a day ahead. Woo-hoo!

So, my goal of this blog is to somewhat journal/somewhat share crafty ideas. Hopefully this will help me stay on track with my goal. It's probably going to include a variety of all different kinds of things, from pics of my kids, to scrapbooking layouts, to card making projects, to ...??? We'll just have to find out!
