Far be it from me to shy away from an opportunity to use a pun. I’m sorry, it’s a disease. 😮

It’s been a while since I last updated – I was hit with a nasty cough, school vacation followed by a nasty head cold. I did continue with Calvinball – ended up with a pretty respectable 133 (I think?) – of course Celeste blew everyone away with her final total of 160. I was very impressed with Doris’ tally of 50 – no mean feat given that she doesn’t digi scrap. I wonder how her art journal is going? That’s something that I’d like to try. Maybe in April? I have lots and lots of projects to post – mostly cards but I’m going to leave that a while and fill you in on other news:

A new month means a new theme and gallery at Write.Click.Scrapbook – procrastinate no longer. This was our chance to finish or even start layouts we have been putting off. I think we all have a list a mile long for that one! Go check it out if you haven’t already. Here’s my contribution:

On to the other big news for March – I’m thrilled to be a guest teacher at Debbie Hodge’s series on Inspiration at Masterful Scrapbook Design. You’ll find all the information about it on the site but I’d be happy to answer any questions you might have. The other teachers are Celeste Smith, Lisa Dickinson, and Anna Aspnes, all amazingly talented and inspiring scrapbookers. The month starts off with a seminar on about ideas and inspiration, finding and organizing inspiration, viewing an inspiration piece and applying inspiration to the scrapbook page. There will also be webinars with each of the teachers, along with design articles and tons of sample layouts. If you are looking for inspiration, look no further!

Celeste has devoted her a week to inspiration over at Write.Click.Scrapbook and because today is Thursday, AKA giveaway day, there are three subscriptions to the March seminar at Masterful Scrapbook Design up for grabs! Go right now and comment!
