creating.

Photobucket Berlin Mae, 1 year old.

I've been trying to take a break from work photography so that I get passion for it back. I feel like I've gone a little stagnant. bored and boring. and uncreative. i'm going to continue this break for a little while. so far i haven't had a huge break because of orders and such but even the slow down has been great for my creativity. i used to paint, draw, attempt to crochet, sew, make various items like soap, as well as bake. I wasn't always good at everything (remember my crappy totes that i tried to sell at a craft show... *cough cough (lame)*) but I was at least having fun. Almost everything I'd do would give me a sort of high. Right now I'm sort of on one of those highs for scrapbooking again. I haven't done it in a while and got back to Elijah's album. I'm all caught up to present time now. So far, 88 pages! I have some ideas of books that I want to get to but I think I'm going to start Izzie's and then do a family album. I've come across some really amazing websites for papers and elements. I've also already learned a few things that will help me when designing people's albums! so yay!

I can't wait to share all the neat things that I'm learning! i think i may even get the wacom tablet out and try to draw some of my own elements which would be nice to learn. I'm even more excited to get Elijah's book to print!

If you are interested in digital scrapbooking, check out www.blurb.com. They make it really easy to design and order albums using their program. Also, hit me up if you are interested in more links for papers and such.

Hey! I'll have to get in touch with you. I've decided to move to digital scrapbooking but have no idea how to get started. It seems like a daunting task...
