Project Life Week 11 and 12

With iNSD, I fell behind again with putting my PL together.  I had printed the photos and all but just needed to organize.  I think the organizing is what takes the longest.

iNSD Sharing Thread

International Scrapbooking Day is always filled with lots of challenges for prizes, freebies, blog/FB hops, chats, and more around the world.  Sometimes it can be difficult to follow all the designers and stores out there who participate in this big day.  Hummie has created a forum where you can drop by to see what's out there and make it a little easier for you to find what you need quickly so that you can spend more time scrapping instead of searching.  How great is that?

Have great fun!!!!

This Is Me - The Last Day

This class went by so fast and I didn't think I'd miss it but I do.  I really do.  Initially, when I first started the class, I had expectations.  I was looking forward to a structured environment and it wasn't.  As time went on and I did the challenges, I realized it was perfect just the way it was.  I really enjoyed the weekly challenges which was the key motivator to keep going.  That and seeing the other students' pages.  I honestly enjoyed this experience.  I will continue to add to my binder but it won't be the same without the class.

Here is my last challenge.  We had to write a letter.  I decided to write one to myself.  After I wrote the letter, I sealed it in an envelope and taped it with washi tape.  Years from now, I will open it and read it...and hope to smile.


iNSD Is Coming


Keep a lookout for my blog hop freebie on May 4th!
