long time no see

My apologies that it has been so long since I wrote.  I have recently changed jobs and that coupled with the end of trimester assignments has lead to much thinking about scrapping, but not so much scrapping…

I have completed a heap of layouts and OTP creations which I am hoping to have up on my blog soon, I have recently completed my intermediate copic demonstrator training too … so I have heaps of projects to show you (and I am now certified at colouring), not to mention the annual Scraptacular Retreat will be on from the 22 – 24 July!!  Which is very exciting!

So, with hope that I will get back here later today to post some pics, thank you for your patience :)

Happy Scrapping!
