One more sleep...

...till scrap camp.

Sort of can't wait - but between there and here I've got such a lot to do - that I'm not actually that excited. I had this great idea that the rest of the family should travel north with me - and stay in Tokoroa while I was at camp. But it has now dawned on me that I now have five bags to pack - instead of just my own stuff. I am finding it hard enough trying to decide what scrapping stuff to take let alone having to think about the essentials (and non essentials) the kids need to take.

Still - I'm looking forward to the part when I get to be at scrap camp - without the kids - meeting my on-line friends, scrapping up a storm and having some good old fashioned scrapping fun!

I made my daring cardmakers card early this week - well, I didn't leave it till the last minute atleast. I wasn't very adventurous with my different language - quite predictable actually - but I'm happy with it. I was actually trying to figure out my card design for this years christmas cards - I usually come up with one design then vary it a bit with different papers/ribbons - but I think making three chipboard presents for each card may take a bit too long. I wonder what just one present would look like ...

Hey there Beverley, thanks for showing us another lovely card. I really like that idea.
My way round the making 3 chipboard boxes for each card would be to cut strips of paper, stick them onto a bit of card (cereal box or similar) then when it was really dry I'd cut them up with a guillotine and ink the edges - might even give it a try, actually! :-)
