With needing to distract myself from the damage to the car I've managed to defrost the freezer, clean out the fridge, do a pile of washing and sorted out the recycling. And that was all before brunch! Just can't bear to look or think about what happened on Friday. A neighbour kindly offered to clear up all the mess, his son was mugged in the road just before Christmas and is still shaken up.
So in the afternoon I decided to do more scrapping, printed out loads of photos since I got the new printer and kept on meaning to do something with them. I think the new stash has been inspiring me, some lovely papers in both. I would have got two of the storage containers from The Range, only they just had the same papers - doh! It would have been better if they'd offered a variety, they would have sold more. But the QVC stash is also proving very welcome, used a mix of both today for the above page, plus the leftover from the ribbon I used on another page, just threaded a ribbon thru to give some effect, then coloured some small white flowers and added them, it all just came together nicely. Seem to be going thru my tearing ruler phase, I have several but they either lay unused for ages or they become the flavour of the month with me! I just edged the cream paper with an orange ink pad, from a colour wheel that I got years ago from QVC! One of my first craft buys, and still going strong. Not sure that they make them anymore.
Just wondering what I can blitz tomorrow? May take the Xmas decs down, box for them is in the cloakroom so if that goes back into loft then I can sort out the cloakroom.... it has become a dumping ground and badly needs sorting out.
Oh well, one more day and normality will resume... only 363 days to Christmas... !
