It's been a busy, creative week. I love those kind. I have been scrapping a bit, crocheting a lot and loving every minute of it. Here are a couple of layouts and projects I scrapped. I finally got around to making my journal for my Stories in Hand class. Maybe now I can work on the prompts. I did this for the Amaco art embossed stickers review. The metal is colored with my Bic Mark It's. Love those things.
Here are a few using the Tinkering Ink Becoming Green Collection. I love this collection. Not as heavy weight as the other Tinkering Ink papers, but a good weight. Great patterns.
And here is my progress on the two crochet projects I am working on. My purse is about 45% complete. I have 8 squares done ( it requires 16). Once I do that, I will still have to piece it together and make the straps and attached. Still debating about whether to line it. I really don't know how to do that, but I think it would hold it's shape better if I did.
I started a scarf for my older brother. He says it is snowing in Ohio and he liked the one I knit for him, so I started a brown one for this winter. It's a quicky pattern and I should be finished in about a week.
With all this other creativity going on, I forgot all about the sketch this week. Sorry! I will try to get one up this week sometime. If not, I will have a card sketch up here and at Scrapfriends next Sunday.
Anyways, that's it for me this week. Do something creative for yourself this week!
Lookie at all your fiber work! LOL. Love it!

The LO of DS is great. I would like to take a closer look at The Stories book, very creative. I agree with you the purse needs to be lined to hold it's shape. Love the colors, can't wait to see the finished project. You brother will absolutely adore the scarf, I like the rich milk chocolate color. Here I am talking "sweets" again. LOL

You are one talented lady for sure! I love your book -- the embossed stickers are yummy (seriously). Also, I'm in awe of your knitting. I've never been able to knit -- something miswired in my brain (heh-heh). I tried crochet once, but that ended badly (knots, mayhem, the works). Thank goodness my friends and a few family members know how! Your brother is a lucky man!

Yes it snowed in Ohio! Ugh I am hearing we are expecting more! Right now with the rain it is gone. I wish I had so many talents!
