Bug Boy Etsy album

Bug Boy

I love SEI papers and tend to hoard them a bit. I thought these papers would make a fun spring album for pictures of a little boy. I was right. ;)

Etsy Beach Album

Last week it was warm, sunny and 80. HERE in MICHIGAN in April. Unreal. Of course, today it's semi-sunny and a cold 45 degrees. Yeah, that's more what I'm use to. ;)

I cannot wait for summer when I can devote more time to my new Etsy store. :) I've decided not to teach summer school this year because of some burn out issues I'm having. Instead, I'm going to scrapbook for a living this summer. Don't worry, I still get paid by the school for the summer so I'm not a starving artist. :)

To kick off that sentiment: Summer, I have a cute album I just put on Etsy today!

Speaking of oldies

I wasn't going to do last week's CPS sketch. But today I was working on a mini album (coming soon ;) ) and was inspired to make a card based on the sketch. So here's my take on CPS sketch #58



I have a sentimentality toward that SEI paper. I'm using it grudgingly because I still love it so much I want to hoard it. My first ever published layout used that SEI paper. It was a 4 generations layout. :) Good times. Maybe someday I'll get the nerve to start submitting again, or maybe even make a scrapbook page again.

New Goodies

*sigh* I ordered new goodies over a week ago from two different places - www.scrappindeals.com (whom I knew I'd have to wait for since they don't keep everything in stock) and www.cherishedscrapsandcards.com . That was my big order which said it would ship in 2-3 days but it's been 6 days and it still hasn't shipped. :( Big, BIG bummer since that was what I was hoping to play with over my spring break, which is now almost over. I guess I'll stick with the places I usually shop at from now on since I always get that stuff within 4 or 5 days shipped.

Guess I'll have to content myself with some oldies but goodies for now.

Cards

Just a few more cards I worked on last week. I can't believe I'm over 1/2 way done with Spring Break and haven't created a thing. Well, I made my 5 year old a birthday card, but that's it. Maybe later today.
