All NEW & Shiny

It's my new crafting blog! Why a new one you may ask? Well, I forgot the sign in for the other one. I have tried every combination I can think of but apparently that blog is meant to forever float in the Land of Abandoned Blogs. Maybe in a state of enlightenment I will remember the sign in information but chances are that by then I will have expanded this blog and won't want to use that blog. At least I'd be able to delete it.

And just like that it took one paragraph for me to totally digress. I digress a lot. Just so you know. If you're okay with that then keep coming back.

So......here's the scoop. I love to craft. I am just learning to sew and hoping to increase my skill level beyond the "that looks like a monkey sewed it" stage. Actually, a monkey could probably sew better than I could but let's not even delve into the world of sewing monkeys.

I also LOVE to digital scrapbook. I am a freelance photographer so digital scrapbooking is a natural fit for me. Plus I have a cool MacBook Pro that I count as my 3rd child. Will someone please tell what is better than cuddling up in bed, watching "Golden Girls" and digital scrapbooking? NOTHING. Unless you throw in a bag of M&Ms and then it must be like Heaven.

I knit, I crochet, I cross-stitch (very poorly, I might add) and sometimes I will paper craft as well. Lord knows I still have enough supplies for a small store and while I have a penchant for exaggeration, this is not one of those times (much to my husband's chagrin). About once a year he tries to convince me to sell all of my supplies but I just know there is going to be this one perfect moment when the universe reveals its purpose for my excessive craft supply and THEN I will be vindicated. Until then I have to endure his occasional rants and block the entrance to my craft room every time he threatens to go in there. It's like my sacred space. And really that's why I craft....it's my happy place.

So welcome to my scrappy round world. I hope you'll keep coming back. And I hope I don't lose my password this time.
