Catching my breath...

The last part of 2011 went by in a complete blur, mainly due to starting my first teaching job (completely crazy busy ALL the time) and having some personal stuff to work through (yucky, complicated heartbreak). This all unfortunately added up to one very unloved blog.


Trying to put that right in 2012. Although life is still crazy, so posts might be lacking in words often! But everyone likes photos, right, so that's all good!


So, things to catch up on...


Very excited and honoured to be a part of this:



So happy and excited to see my article go up over at Ella Publishing:



Here's a little share of one of my layouts that I made for the article, all about my One Little Word for 2012 (light):



I started subscribing to Studio Calico in December, and have fallen in love with scrapbooking again. Having fun making lots of 8.5x11 pages:







Also very excited to be doing Project Life this year. I've decided to do just one page per week, rather than a double-page spread as I think it would just be too overwhelming with my busy work schedule. And not sure I'd even have enough to fill two pages a week anyway! You can see my title page in the article I wrote for Ella Publishing. And am aiming to share weekly pages here. So stay tuned :)


I think that's all for now! I hope you are having a happy start to 2012!
