That's how I feel at the moment. I seem to have lost my way a little with my scrapbooking and it is so frustrating! I have ideas brewing in my head with things I want to try but I need some serious time at my craft desk to see what happens in reality.
Last weekend I was away on a crafty weekend with a group of 20+ fellow crafters. Some were close friends, others people I had met at crops, some i hadn't met before at all. It was a lovely, laid back weekend and I am happy with the pages I made, which I haven't had time to photograph yet, but it was a bit of a struggle and often needed a sketch or a page to spark idea with. This wasn't helped by the fact I was totally disorganised and had packed in about an hour the night before I was to leave!
This is the start of the Easter holidays and although I do have to spend a few days working and will be spending some time with my family, I am also hoping for at least 3-4 days of craftiness to try and work out some things. I have never felt I has a particular style of my own, though there are a few things that almost always appear on my layouts including a title, some journalling and some patterned paper and things tend to be in straight lines and have a balance to them, there is not what I would call a definitive style though. This is what I am aiming for - to find my style and my own 'go to' essentials so that packing for crops is easier and I can get on with the serious business of making pages and recording the stories behind them.
Later in the week I should get time to take photos of some of my recent creations for sharing. Until then, take care x
