i don't know why scrapbooking feels so hard lately.

i'm going to sit in the sun, hurrah.

Angie of angiedelarie asked if I would guest design for her last month. These are some of the things I put together :) There are still a few other things I have yet to finish.

I think Angie is having some trouble with the website at the minute, but she has an etsy too.

I used her cityscape stamp on fabric then just embroidered over it. I love the stamp anyway, but it made it so much more touchy-feely.

I am in love with anybody that is big and brave and beautiful enough to sit back and think, 'no wait. You know what. *i* could do that. I could design those things, I could make that myself, I have drawings I think other people would like.'
And that is Angie. In all her indie scrapbooking product glory :)

once a fashionista...

always a fashionista.
Only i will be continuing, for now, without the red star.
from january first.

i have struggled, my friends know i have struggled, with making stuff out of other stuff, in a timely manner, with specific stuff.
as it stands right now, i don't have the brain space to devote to scrap in style tv, and really be the advocate that jeanette deserves.
i have gone over and over and over in my mind, how i can go back to being that girl that makes secret things on her floor, out of stuff other people would throw away, and not feel pressured, or have it feel forced or lacking in authenticity.
and i finally realised, theres only one way i can go back to doing that right now. the only way to go back to basics, literally is, to go back to basics.
so i am stepping down.

in my mind, it makes sense for me not to think of this as a forever thing.
but that is of course not my decision in the long run.

i can't even put into words how grateful i am to have met the people i have met through this hobby.
and i know that i have made friends, and i will continute to knock up many hours to america on the phone, with or without a red star.

i still aim to be at sisiversary, depending on finances. and i will still very much be at sistv :)
just sans red star.
