Some fun new products

I had chemo on Tuesday and was feeling pretty good yesterday, so hubby took me to JoAnns, and Hobby Lobby. I found some fun new products that I can't wait to play with. There's nothing like new craft supplies to put me in a happy mood! I see a lot of people using the project life system. They were doing daily pics and weekly pages, and I thought that wasn't for me because my grandkids pics are mostly on my kids computers. I had a 'duh' moment when HSN had the kits on a craft day. I don't have to do it weekly, I can just use the pages and insert cards for any kind of page. I have been collecting project life products and am going to give it a whirl. I think (if my anal personality will let me) I will mix regular 12x12 pages with project life pages. I won't post my scrapbooking on my blog because I am not a scrapbooker and they will probably be pretty simple. I don't want to stop making cards, but, since I am stage 4 cancer, I need to think about what I am leaving behind for my kids. I always told myself (these past 9 years of cancer battling) if I go and don't have scrapbooking done, I will be really mad at myself, and here it is 9 years later and I only have a few pages done. It's time to kick it in gear and get these photos in albums so my grandkids will be able to look at them and know how much I love them. So, now it will be a mix of cards and scrapbooking. I have so many photos and am so behind! Have a great day and please comment on any ways you know, to get scrapbooking done quickly!

whatever you do on a scrapbook page will be so so cherished, Dianne. I have 45 scrapbooks, and hopefully one or two will bring delight to my family.
Hugs, girl.
