Hi all!!
I hope you are all well and having a great week! I have been having so much fun creating with all of the new lines my LSS has gotten in over the last few weeks. I have several pages to prove this..haha.
The weather in Bend has been so beautiful over the last few weeks. My parents held their first BBQ of the season. We played badminton and had a blast. It was so nice to get outside and just goof around :)
I have also made a really difficult decision over the last couple of weeks. I have decided that I want to get back to scrapping for fun and for ME.
So....I've stepped down from ALL of my design team spots and teaching at my LSS. While, I really loved being a part of the teams I was on and teaching, I just need a break from any sort of obligations and requirements. I wanted to be *free* again to scrap when I want and what I want....submit if I choose, upload to galleries if I desire........like I started out doing before the DT bug bit me and I lost myself in why I love this hobby in the first place.
So.....it was time. And you know what?
I've never felt so inspired to be free to create as I please.
It's like a breath of fresh air. I am not thinking...oooh!... I need to get this-and-this done, instructions written up for this, oh, I almost forgot I have "this" and "this" to get to "so and so"....or staying up late just to finish up a deadline.
And now I think to myself...... Why was I doing this? What for? What was in it for me? Other than all of the pretty things I got to play with for free. I don't mean to sound bratty AT ALL with this statement, I just have to be REAL and HONEST about it all.
Before I say too much more, I'll 'open my mouth and insert my foot' (blush a bit) and just post some dang layouts...hahaa.
Well, enjoy your day!
Much love,
