Can I say that I am ready for 2012 to be over… I know that it is only the middle of August but bring on 2013 already; a new year can certainly not be as bad or as stressful as this one has been. It is with my utmost apologies that I begin this blog today, as the stress and busy-ness of this summer has seen a dramatic lack in blogging (boy, do regret that since I love updating my blog, sharing my craftiness with my readers and hearing what all of you have to say). This blog, may I add, has been my saving grace after one of the worst years I have ever had in my 33 years of life.
With that said, I am not sure how (exactly) to get my mojo back on track. Every time I turn around I add another thing to my to-do list and every item that gets added seems to add another layer of stress and causes me to go into the “melt-down” mode that literally freezes me in my spot.
I would like to share a layout I did for my August commitments for The Scrapbooking Studio design team. This layout was done using the Echo Park Mini Theme Toy Box.
