Sweet Shoppe Saturday: Sneak Peek!
So… in my moodiness this week, I’ve been extra inspired to design… it is actually a really odd phenomenon… I feel totally absolutely un-invested in just about everything, I’m worn down and tired an moody and just plain out of it… but for some reason I can’t seem to stop myself from making things. I’m drawing, writing, designing like mad, I am even scrapping! I wonder if maybe in all reality I really am one of those crazy artist types that sink into these deep depressions only to lock themselves away with a canvas and some paints…...

I’m a girl of few words today, pretty over whelmed with the everyday, with a sick family last week, some house issues going on… and feeling incredibly worn down…. but I was uploading my photos of the day and was really proud of this one, both the photography and the journaling. So I wanted to share it here. Jan25th, 2009: Art Therapy, originally uploaded by MyLittleScraps. Struggling a bit today, sometimes life just weighs heavier on me than normal…. the goal switches from: “be better, do more, try harder” to simply: “be. make it through, keep on...
Read MoreMy Moment in History
Today marks a new chapter in the history of our nation… and regardless of your politics or what way you voted, today is evidence of our democracy at work. Now, I pretty much never ever blog politics here, and I am certainly not of the "thank goodness Bush is gone" camp… nevertheless, I just couldn’t let today pass with out a post that says, "I’m proud to be part of this day in history." I’m proud of this day when race isn’t a limit on ones future. I’m proud to be part of this nation where we choose freely our leaders,...
Read MorePHoto Fun
One thing I’ve really loved about this whole photo a day thing, is that I’ve been really taking some cool pictures everyday. I mean I love to take pictures, and easily took 100 pics a month before, but lots of times it was all in like 3 or 4 sittings, and not necessarily with the same focus or creativity as I have now. Now, I see something that inspires me or moves me, and I pick up the camera and I try to get the best picture I can of one particular thing. I take my shots more consciously so that I end up with exactly what I want. I’ve been having fun...
Read MorePhoto 365
Did you notice a new little addition to my side bar?? ————————————> This year at SSD several of them are participating in the Project 365 photo-a-day challenge. The basic idea is to take a picture a day, and make a little caption for each days picture, with something you learned, something that happened, or just anything that you feel is significant. Ideally at the end of the year you’ll have a years worth of pictures and stories to look back on. I love this idea, since like I’ve expressed...
