Sooo.... It's been... 15months since I blogged? LOL...
Hubby came back. I still haven't scrapped much. We've moved to another province. And I've joined a home party company selling loose leaf teas - Steeped Teas to be specific.
That's 15 months in a nutshell.
I'm going to try picking up this blog again. We'll see how it goes again :P
My plan is to challenge myself to be creative (since I have nothing better to do since we've moved and I"m not yet working). Years ago I challenged myself to create a new recipe card every week for a year. It was a lot of fun. I created a new recipe card each week, sometimes a new recipe that I'd loved (which meant I was also trying a ton of new recipes in search of new ones to scrap) and sometimes an old recipe from my collection was scrapped. This was back when I first started scrapping my recipes and got my entire collection onto recipe cards in a very reasonable time frame.
While I don't want to do the same challenge as before, I'd still like to do something on a weekly basis. And so I've come up with a new challenge... to create a tag every week.
I've only ever made 1 tag before. It was a lot of fun and I"d love to make more, but I don't know what I would do with all of the tags that I'd love to make. So! I've decided to combine this challenge with a Smashbook challenge - to create a new tag each week, then add it to my Smashbook and create a bit more around the tag. Maybe journal about why I made the tag, the process etc...
I have a lot of ideas, and I'll be picking up some supplies for both the tags and the Smashbook at the Michael's grande opening on Sept. 14th - they are opening I think 8 new stores around the greater Montreal Area!!! The first ones in all of Quebec!
So... here's to a new blog start, some new crafty challenges and our new life here in Quebec (BTW - I miss Alberta!!!).
TTYL!
A new start, a new challenge - wish me luck!
