Earlier this week I posted on facebook that I could not find my crafting mojo…… It happens sometimes mostly when I need to craft under pressure with deadlines hanging over me. Well I found it again and you may wonder if it was actually lost under all this mess??
To be an honest this is what it looked like when I found it. I have had the most wonderful few days crafting and am so happy with the results. I have truly fallen in love with the FREE Bliss sale-a-bration set and especially the butterfly but I will save that for another post. So today's offering is made using the Bliss stamp set and I embossed the Bliss word with black embossing powder. It's an unusual colour combination and my mojo was not fully flowing at this point but I still like it all the same.
And guess what I even did some scrapbooking……………. I know, you may be picking yourself off the floor at this point as I have not scrapbooked for AGES, its my first love and I rarely find time to craft for myself and I have to admit I really enjoyed it – so you never know you may see more scrapbooking. Now I can't show you the whole layout yet as I have it saved for an event I am going to on Saturday but here is a little sneak peek –
It has made be excited about planning the classes at the upcoming retreat I have planned for April. It will be a whole weekend devoted to crafting with some fabulous ladies and some great projects, we still have some places available and we are still offering the special £20 Stampin Up voucher if you book before the end of Jan, see the events tab at the top of my blog for more details.
Of course it you need anything you know how to get in touch and I hope you have a great day,
lots of love
Awww Michelle … I had to laugh when I saw your “inspiration table”!?! And do you know … it looks just like mine does after I’ve made ONE card! What is it with us crafters – 5 mins to whip up a fantastic card & 3 days to tidy up after! The little sneek peek of the scrapbook looks beautiful – can’t wait to see the whole thing!
Luv Linda -x-
So pleased to find out I am not alone, there are other messy crafters out there!
Love the Bliss set, am picking up mine soon.
Lol now this looks like some serious creative chaos!!! Is there a desk under there somewhere!!!!
Ha ha ha organised chaos is what I call it. Love the colour combo of your bliss card and welcome the much needed inspiration.

Beautiful card Michelle and the sneek peek of your layout is looking good too – can’t wait to see the whole thing!
Your craft room is looking much like mine at the moment, any chance of seeing pictures of it tidy – I love to see craft rooms …
Good grief Michelle your craft room looks even worse than mine!! Love the Bliss card

That picture makes me feel a whole lot better about the mess I’ve created… but hankering after Convention craft tote which isn’t here yet! I love Bliss, too – and I love your card, especially the border of huge scallops.
Stunning card – and your table looks just like mine after an hour or so of crafting! LOL
Hi Michelle ,
I feel a whole lot better for seeing your messy craft room, it looks as messy as mine. lol
Well done on your talk Saturday, it was very interesting, I loved your little boxes and cards.
