A Challenge or Two


This is my "baby girl", when she was a baby that is!  She's now 23 - and absolutely the best daughter I could ask for.  Oh it wasn't me who changed HER life...it was her that changed mine and why I am the way I am!  My first project ever in paper crafting was her birth announcements, made out of a Disney stamp and cardstock!  My love for paper crafting started with this one little project!  
Since then, I have scrapbooked who knows how many mini albums, scrapbooks and individual pages for not only my kids, but also for plenty of others!  I learned - through creating - how to heal my emotions, using it for therapy instead of a therapist!  Now I know enough to know when to say "I need a therapist"!  
Honestly, I haven't created...or been able to create for months now.  Between drama going on with "family", and trying to finish up rebuilding our lives...I think creatively I am at enough...   So, bear with me while I get my ducks in a row, get out of all this funk I am in, and get back to the fun part of creating and sharing!  Hopefully you will start to see a fun post from this day forward!  Now - this wouldn't be a Memories in Tyme post if I didn't give you a bit of a challenge today!!!!  
  • Create SOMETHING - just get in and do it!  Even if it's something small!  
  • Look at what you have put aside and finish up just one project!  
  • Start to do a sketch or planning for one project for something coming up in the next few months!  
  • Tygress
  • Take some of the pictures for projects you want to work on - other than holiday photo's!  
  • Clean up your space!
I haven't created for a while now - other than my Creative PaperClay projects that is, today...well I have to create new bookmarks!  My cat Tygress (pictured here), decided to throw up on my can full of bookmarks...  And if you have cats - those hairball tuna treats that come back up - just ain't pretty, let me tell you!  So, I have to create new bookmarks...  I also have an A to Z project I am doing - starting up in January...so I need to start taking pictures for that!  Share with me what you ended up doing - comment with a link or photo for sure!  
Thanks for stopping by,
