Lost and Found

It has been so long since I've picked up my adhesive runner and paper trimmer! I've been inspired to do something.... anything.... for awhile now. I just haven't been able to find any inspiration to put ink to paper.

I went on an amazing blog hop today and have seen so much inspiration and am ready to try my hand at this latest sketch from their site.

I was such an avid scrapper for so many years.... I started out as a hobby, then as a consultant for a scrappy company, then a message board.. to a website..... to an online store... to selling kits and mailing out more than my postman wanted to carry to his truck each day.

I was creative and happy and saw beauty in the world in a way that has been lost to me for these years since.

I saw different beauty in the world.... the beauty of a baby girl named Jenna as she entered this world and became part of my heart. I went from a mom of 2 to a mom of 3 and life changed drastically. Now........ my journey takes another turn with the addition of our 4th child soon and even though life will be crazier and busier than EVER before.... I want the eyes of a creative soul back and am ready to embrace ART and babies all at the same time!

Blogs have changed since I posted daily, you tube now shows videos of everything you can think of, and websites galleries are all filled with different people showcasing different talents.

I feel like I'm taking a small piece of myself back, but not in a selfish way. It is a piece that I use to share the lives of those closest to me. I'm excited to get started.

I'm excited. Just 2 words, but words that carry so much meaning.

Thanks so much to the ladies of http://www.sketchsupport.com for helping me find my voice again.

Now off to find some paper to cut up!
