It's for my sister's friend who just had a baby girl called Grace, hence the "G". I love the sentiment which is from my very well used Wordsworth baby set (the one with the stick people- so cute!) and the cute little ducky stamp, which I coloured here with watercolour crayons and an aquash brush, is from a Studio G set which I got at the Stitches and Craft show (yes, I am gradually getting around to using all the stuff I bought at the show, it just takes me a little time!) And the reason why it takes me so long? My desk....
You know all those beautiful, neat, perfect, organised, clean, white scrap rooms they're always featuring in CK Mag? Mine is NOT one of those. Can you believe I do my work here? What a Public Embarrassment!! I guess you could call my organisational style eclectic.. creative.. or unique... or maybe messy and hap-hazard! How do I work amongst this I hear you ask? Well usually I try to push as much as I can out of the way and work in the 30cm x 30cm space thats left!! At least it's enough to fit a scrap page in!! hahahahah {laughing maniacally, cos if I don't I might just cry about it}. Do I wish the scrapbooking fairy would come in and design a system that works perfectly for me? Of course!! In the mean time... I might just keep on ignoring it! Alicia and I went to Domayne yesterday and I spent ages staring at this one shelving system imagining all my stuff on it and the sales-lady approached me a little hesitantly and said "Are you ok here?" cos I hadn't moved a wink for a full 5mins! I was so deep in organisational thought! I didn't get the shelves though (no spare $900!), and so this mess stays. Oh well.
Hope you had a good weekend, and keep warm!
