a NEW month, a NEW job, a NEW city, a NEW life...i'm still alive peeps & back in action! :)


first of all, much love for ALL my ScrapNspire fans!

i've been missing in action because i recently re-located to a new city for my new job as an audit manager. 

so i've been getting adjusted within the past month to the city of Mobile, Alabama and finishing up unpacking ALL the boxes left by the movers about 3 weeks ago. 
(it's crazy when i have more boxes of art stuff than clothes - eeeeeeeeek - seriously!!)
let's just say, the movers knew about scrapbooking by the time they brought in the last box into my new townhome.

so, as you can tell, my scrapbook studio was packed up and not much accessible for creative time in the past weeks. :-(( 


a work in progress but all is unpacked about 95%!! woo hoo!!!
i spent 2 days this past weekend organizing & tucking away within easy reach and clutter free my "necessities".  the decorating part will come over the next few weeks :)
i have a cubicle sectional (in espresso wood) to put together this weekend (on the other wall) which will complete out the room. lovin' this space to create!! 
(about 3 feet larger than my previous creative space in my past apartment)



(there is a sink -which you can't see - behind the door - love this because now i can wash brushes, etc. without leaving the room :-))


many projects put on hold yet my brain has still been spinning with creative ideas & new things to bring to ScrapNspire.  

i'm still organizing myself, putting together my schedule for the next couple of months for my new job and working in some sweet creative time on the weekends because...
i MUST create....
it's my breath, my sanity, my happy land, and overall, that good feeling of inspiring my lovely fans too! :) 

i dream big of great & NEW things for ScrapNspire since this past Spring. 
i've shifted in my focus for the blog in the sense i still want to focus on mini books/albums and what inspires me in my creations. 
however, with the ScrapNspire Etsy shop, i'm taking a different direction...
 and as a result, i'm putting the custom mini books available now for sale at 50% off (sale prices will be posted later this week)!!!! 
so, a great time to get a cool mini created from me at an GREAT price!

here are a few clicks in my life over the past few weeks...
