Well Worn and loving it!


I found time to play today hurrah, though to be honest I did not feel like doing much else in this heat!

Now please forgive the photo.  I should explain that I take my photos on the mobile phone which has a blogger app on it. Sooooo much easier than getting the camera out and loading up to the computer etc.  Though this means sometimes my pictures aren't perfect, this one is a bit blurred, probably my shaky hand!

Today I used the Well Worn papers from the main catalogue, it's the first time I have used them even though I have been planning too for aaaaaages. 

I dont know about you but I go through phases of having a favourite way of doing my LO's. 
I think what I am saying is I dont't believe I have found my style yet. 
 I am not saying this is a bad thing,  it  means I get try out differant styles and it means variety in my LO's.  Although I think deep down I really would like to find a style, then I would not spend so much time paper shuffing .

Having said all that, this is where I find Stampin' Up! products such a pleasure to work with.  The majority of the hard work is taken away as the papers, inks, ribbons, butttons, fabric etc etc have all been made to co-ordinate. This makes less 'paper shuffling' as I know everything will work together.

Sooooo, getting back to my 'style,'  my 'thing' at the moment is to use the leftovers from punching.  As you can see from the picture below
I have used the negative from a flower  and  border punch.  This of course means I am keeping hold of every little scrap now and I need to find a tub to put them all in! 

So don't forget those little scraps,  they can actually make a differance to your LO'S by adding extra detail , layering and depth.


Till next time Happy Crafting x
