LSNED 9 September

Today I learnt how easily and happily distracted I am at the moment.

I love days when I have peace and quiet to get on with things but I also like when the day is full of interruptions like today.

LSNED 8 September

Today I learnt that I still over commit myself and this still stresses me out.

I got to go - I need to make a list and prioritise to get some feeling of control back and so I can sleep tonight.

Today I learned that I may be able to make the box office software work for us.

I have been struggling for almost a week to get this new piece of software to do what I need it to do and today I finally can see it working in time for the show.

Learn Something New

I love taking the Learn Something New Every Day Class from Shimelle for lots of reasons, but mostly as it encourages me to stop, reflect and notice what is going on around me. Starting the year before last I keep a ‘What I learnt today’ journal for about 18 months and only stopped when I was going through major changes with work and started capturing that huge journey differently. I have missed it and now that just over a year has passed since the big changes took place for me I am ready to start noticing what I am learning again.

I kind of have three major lessons across the two days of September so far. The first is that I am no better at keeping up with the creative side of this despite this being my third year! I do have a cunning plan for this though and hope that by the weekend I will have put it into place. I am going to print out some photos at a standard size – more than I will use. I will then cut some papers in standard sizes and work out different ways of combining them. Then all I will need to do each day is select a photo and papers, stick and journal. So expect a lot of clean lines in my journal this year!

Now for a bit of a catch up

September 1

Today I learnt that late night conversations can lead to exciting ideas and difficulty sleeping.

September 2
Today I learnt that one year on there are still new paths opening up all the time and this still excites me.

I wonder what leasons tomorrow will bring!

One for the Birds

There is a great photography challenge over on In Love With Stamping - I am really enjoying it and love the focus it gives me when I am playing with my new camera.

However for me the tough part is deciding what to upload in response to the challenge! This month we were asked to capture an eyecatching phots of a bird. here are the pictures I am struggling to choose between!

Any thoughts most welcome!

Happy Snapping

Remember me?

Goodness - its been a while since I last posted here!

I have been creating lots - mostly Stampin' Up! projects which you can see here

There have been some non SU creations which I remembered to photograph so here they are ...

The stamps are Leanne Ellis stamps which I love! I am also enjoying colouring with my new copics - I need to practice lots more but I dont see that as a hardship!

I also wanted to let you know about a fantastic blog candy give away - Do you love Papertry Stamps - I do and over on A Passion for Papertry they are giving away a set you just cant buy - I have my fingers crossed as I would love to own this set!

Hope to see you soon
