my may studio calico layouts are up...to see them all you can click here.
hope you had a wonderful weekend!
oh- and i think the mojo might be back. i had a BLAST working on a SC/NSD layout today!
i can't even tell you how happy i am. it's hard when you are going through a rough patch and the thing that gives you joy/therapy becomes unappealing. i'm not even joking that i said a prayer of thanks after i made this layout.
it's the little things, right?

:) I totally understand the rough patch/not scrapbooking thing. I too was very grateful when I was able to work through it. Thanks for the inspiration as always.

I know exactly what you mean! After 3 weeks, I'm in my stamp room again making a card for a dear sweet friend who is very sick and my heart just wasn't in it, but I'm almost finished it and happy with the card and to be back at my stamping.

Oh, I totally hear ya. It's been almost2 years since I did a layout just for me because I wanted to. I've made other things...made lots of cards but no layouts until a month or so ago and I 'think' my mojo's coming back. I'm so excited. Just signed up for a crop in 4 weeks. :)

I pray before I scrapbook sometimes! LOL! {And I ALWAYS pray before I sew ... seriously!} But there have been some layouts that I'm just so thankful for! This layout you did is just beautiful.
