It's been a long hard road for me to rediscover my scrappy mojo as of late. First, I had a taste of just how mean the scrapping industry can be. It made me not even want to walk into my scrapping area and took away the love of scrapping that I have had since I discovered it a few years back. I forced myself to try to get past it, but it never seemed to work.
Then I lost my sister in law. Before the cancer, she was a stamping addict. She sold me all of her stamps, inks and such when she lost use of her arm. After her death, it made it even harder to get into the groove.
But I knew I had to push past it. For her. So today I created my first page in honor of Jana. Even though I'm not a huge stamp fan, I used her stamps in several places on this page. And check out that paper from The Paper Element. It's part of their newest line, Blue Flannel. :)
It felt good. :)
