I would swallow my doubt turn it inside out find nothing but faith in nothing

I was totally going to post this like week before last.

First, scrappies!! A sneak peak at Heather's layout for trading faces. I'm SOOO excited for her to see it and I hope that she loves it!

Second, my Oregon Country Fair album. Honestly, and I'm embarrassed to admit this, but it's the first mini album I've actually finished, and the first time I've used acrylics in this capacity.

This is the cover.

On the inside I made a little tag-- for lack of a better term, and journaled on the back all of the "senses" experienced at the fair. I think it's a cute little album.

So yeah, work is hell right now. I'm hoping after the big move everything calms down a little bit. Everyone is wound up SO tight. Just tonight one of my good work friends called me bawling. It's not easy at this point in time. The big move is on Sunday, so wish us all luck that we stay sane throughout the next week.

Last, Jon and I are moving in the beginning of next month! I am SO very excited. This little apartment is too small, and he is pretty much here all the time anyway. I am excited to have a dishwasher (hopefully), the be far away from my bat sh*t crazy neighbor, to have a room for all my scrapbooking stuff, to have a bigger kitchen, and to have my washer and dryer back!! It will be lovely.

I'll try to post something sometime... but I'm not making any guarantees.

Oooh.... sneaky, sneaky! I have to say, I'm so glad I have seen the layout because I'd be going crazy right now if I couldn't see the whole thing!
I hope your moves (work and home) go well for you - moving sucks! It'll be super nice for you to get into a bigger place though! I can't wait to see what you guys find!
Hugs!
Me
