i'm having some problems downloading pics these days but anyway...it's a few more days before Christmas. shops and malls are sure to be full of people. been busy the past week thinking of ways to do gifts and cards for friends - maybe to save some $ but somehow... i'm on the late mode and zero thoughts as to what gifts to make...(gave it all i guess, making the anniv album...lol!)
it amazes me sometimes how the Lord gives ideas and how to do them. in my mind the procedures seemed so real and grafic...easy-to-do stuffs. now all i could think about is going on a "research-tour". this is what i do when lacking in ideas...
1. frequent bookstores in my area and research...browse through project/activity books.
2. visit my craft stores or websites for projects
3. pray real hard for ideas before starting out....
4. relax. don't be frustrated....if things don't work out. maybe tomorrow...
i'm not usually the planner who schedules all her projects way ahead of time. i'm more of the "cramming-type" like, i do my best work when pressured...sounds like an excuse, but true...
of course, i've got to have all my materials on hand like buying them in advance. i have the habit of buying stuffs i like and may need. if they're a bit expensive, would probably come back after saving enough for it. for example, have this round puncher for $13 and a flower puncher for $6.50 - i'll be weighing them down today...to buy or not to buy! maybe an early christmas gift for myself?
my real passion is PAPER! patterned paper. must have's.....there are no specific wants, i just pick them out randomly. although i truly love all colors... i'm more of the pink, blue, brown and black person. love playing around with what goes well with what.... my real problem is: USING THE PAPER. since i started scrapbooking last year i have more or less a hundred (patterned papers) now, all neatly packed in pink plastic carrier bags from MADE WITH LOVE.
i'll probably venture out to DAISO today. a shop in the east where they sell everything for $2.
there would be a lot of people today...we'll see. but first, we'll see about some application....hmmm....
Pahabol Singit: i remember keeping 5-7 pieces of little notebooks for journals...ano kaya ang pwedeng gawin...isip...isip....
