WOW Cassey--just WOW!!!!! You've been busy

Right now I am considering my scrap time as therapy. DD and DS are keeping me hopping, work is insane and we won't discuss mine and DH's families at the moment. Being able to completely focus my mind on something that I enjoy is a life saver!

I've been cutting one group a day, trying to give myself an hour or so to just recharge. After today though I am under strict self imposed orders not to touch scrap stuff unless it is to put it away. I have to get the house cleaned and the yard put together before DS's grad party on the 11th. Lots to do now that the weather is cooperating.

Erin, I'm glad you like her. She is my first paper piecing that I designed almost completely. The apples and basket are from the doodlecharms cart but the rest is made from coloring page.

I am so jealous that you can do that!!! I am scared to even try!! I really need a good tutorial that will walk me through step by step!! I'd love to be able to do it! Maybe this summer I can sit down and practice?? Did you work it up in inkscape first?

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

Lisa, just a quick check in/update. I am gong to pack my scrap stuff over the next few days. Since its the biggest mess you've ever seen and I will work on these after the move. Which will in turn make me actually un pack it on the other side

Thanks, she is another one of my files from a coloring page.

No inkscape needed for SCAL 2. After months of trying out different files, I have found for paper piecing that I like coloring pages the best or black and white images. I leave them large and break them apart, and then group everything together and resize. I hope this makes sense. It's really basic and easy once you get the hang of it. I am playing around with a minnie mouse witch on a broom for the Halloween group, but can't cut her till after June 12. This is torture for me as I really want to see how she comes out, but I packed up all my paper and glue and stashed it away. My DS was shocked that he could actually sit down in our living room this morning. Now I need to move on to the kitchen.

I understand Rachal, no worries! let's see, packing up, moving, having a baby, three kiddos, work...um I think I can give you a little slack

let me know if you want/need help with the packing or unpacking...I am a pro you know with 40+ moves under my belt!

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

Thanks Lisa!! I *think* i have it under control. Although I spent most of the day on the phone but i do have 95% of the scrap stuff organized and moved into the living room well DBF just moved the big things, just have to pack up the empty albums and refills, and move on to the next few things. I think my stuff may have multiplied. I did condense some things and clear out some junk. but whoa!!! haha. Movers are gonna earn their pay for sure.

sorry to have interrupted your packing today while we talked....but you needed a break, right sounds like you're getting through it all!
that's why your paying them the big bucks....put their backs out not yours and R's! you just get to direct them and start unpacking right away! have a great weekend, looking forward to hanging out and celebrating "E" bday next Friday!

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

haha no need to be sorry. i lost all motivation way before i started then I had to get DD from school and then cook dinner, so there was a huge mess in here when DBF came home. and I got that what have you been doin look. I think it was more because of all the bags of trash I left for him on the front porch. I made way more pogress after the girls decided to take a nap, then I did all day. Hmmm wonder why? Ohh and I get 3 boxes in and run out of packing tape. are you kidding me?

Ahhh....I forgot that you don't need inkscape!! I am going to have to try it at some point! Do you scan the coloring pages or download them from a website?

I usually just save the image to my computer and then import into SCAL. I started with simple images first and slowly graduated to more complicated things. I'm still learning as I go.
