Low Tech

I've been working on setting up everyone to be linked to our shop website. (I have help!)My blog will be linked last so I tried to update it a few times. Alas! Blogger has changed and I couldn't access...blah blah blah.

Anyway, I got more help and I'm back! I am SO low tech :) Digital scrapbooking looms like a huge mountain I hesitate to climb, but for now, good old fashioned cutting & pasting & writing is keeping me plenty happy. I've been working on a couple of things;

1.A travel photo journal. I went on an extended 'artist date' in May and I'm almost done with the album. I used a 6" x9" ring type album which is great for adding pages, even for future jaunts. I will post the finished work here at some point.

2. A funky vintage birthday card. I thought I was pretty smart doing the hidden journalling thing but was told that everyone would have thought of the same idea. ;)

3.My pet project... we just moved house and I'm documenting the whole process. I've printed over a hundred photos, so between decorating(my first love), sorting the photos and actually scrapbooking, it may take a while to see some evidence of this work in progress but I can't wait to use the latest collection from love, Elsie- Jack &Abby.

I wonder if I can get some time off...

is this really my shop, or a dream?

i cannot believe it. did i fall asleep from exaustion and dream this fantastic dream. of me. here. having this cool shop!

i used to play shop. i didn't have my own room, so i imagined my bed was my shop. i would tie a pail with rubber bands to the top of the window grilles. wait for my cousins to come over and sell them anything. i would pull down the pail and keep my fake money there.

in my dream, there is a real cash register. actually it's a computer, with barcode scanner and all.

i'm still exhausted, but wide awake. it really happens. if you want something enough. if you're willing to work hard enough.
yeah, dreams do come true. this really is my shop :)
