52Q - backtracking (week4 to week6)

Another lot which I caught up on... seems like I am the only one in the group staying on track... what happened to the rest???













Earlier on, someone commented that she was amazed that I still have time to scrap despite all the madness! Much as I know that it was not a malicious comment, I have to admit that I felt BAD / GUILTY that I did make time to scrap (when my colleagues dont scrap their personal stuffs anymore)...

People see scrapping as a leisure thing, and time spent on it is opportunity cost for productive work... they do not see that I have to keep at creating so as to keep the passion and interest for scrapbooking in me... this indirectly translates to my work...

More importantly, I scrap because it is my therapy... I need this to feed my soul and keep it going despite all the madness...

I am trying to come to terms with that... And kill that guilt because I know it should not be there in the first place!

52Q - week22 to week24

here's another lot... I thoroughly enjoyed pondering over the questions, and playing around with my scrap supplies... happy to be able to use the stash (but cant seem to finish any of them - i.e. I have too much : P)













I discovered the "secret formula" to getting this done on time!!! I broke up the process into smaller steps spacced out over the week: Sunday I copied the question on my iPhone and started thinking about my answers. Monday I picked out the base 4x6 cards from the lot that I have already cut up (from K&Company Cut N Paste paper pad). Tuesday I stamped. Wednesday I adhered the alphas. Thursday I stuck the paper tapes and stitched. Friday I wrote the journaling and added finishing touches... and I'm ready to take pictures and post on Facebook (actually I should make it a point to post here as well : P)!

52Q - week19 to week21

here's what I have been up to... one card a week... sometimes I slacked and fell behind; sometimes I caught up and stayed on time. I am extremely happy to be part of this... I am trying out a new way of scrapping... without photos and using sccraps and arranging the elements in a haphazard way... and it feels liberating!!!

Ha! I dont feel like answering the question...

because I hate to think of the 1001 things that I had to do!!!
