Your work is beautiful, and you can tell you love what you are doing. Blogging moods come and go for me, depending on how busy I am at home. The nicest part...everyone is still here when we return.<br /><br />KarenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01487481759201796912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-25796723310007593142012-06-07T18:16:32.556-07:002012-06-07T18:16:32.556-07:00I too miss scrapbooking a lot - used to make great...I too miss scrapbooking a lot - used to make great albums of all the travels with Jasmin etc. Now the blog takes precedence I'm afraid and the piles of scrapbook supplies, lovely as they are, await another period in life when I have more time again!!! I guess at this age I'd better hurry and make time, right?<br /><br />Off to Africa in the morning - off to bed now as taxi coming at 4:30 am.

The garden beckons at this time of year, so I fear that only my regular trips to the mainland for work will allow time to play with thread!Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-19649695295954281882012-06-05T13:37:12.646-07:002012-06-05T13:37:12.646-07:00Hi Maggie,

Your pages are so well-done.<br /><br />Spare time is in short supply for me right now, but once classes end on the 15th, I'll have more time. I'm looking forward to sewing, gardening and reading in my spare time - and cuddling a new grandbaby!Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-21252829107890056572012-06-04T06:46:05.378-07:002012-06-04T06:46:05.378-07:00Hi Maggie, I see you've found an old love!

I love tags, you did a great job with yours.

While the farmer plants the barley, I'm close to the house and so I have some scrapbook pages left to finish but mine are more pictures than decorative. I'm determined to finish "The Story of My Life" to this point - with a few empty pages for the travel and family times ahead.

Is there such a thing these days? But I spend my leisure time gardening - I love my garden and weather permitting spend as much time in it as possible. although it does compete with my craft business and often hard to choose a winner.<br /><br />Hope you have a good week.Christmas Pie Craftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15535917693583199463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-36678962081730400852012-06-03T08:29:28.638-07:002012-06-03T08:29:28.638-07:00These are fabulous!I love them all-and the tags!These are fabulous!I love them all-and the tags!fatmonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831047991753402712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-75879658188578756412012-06-03T08:27:38.793-07:002012-06-03T08:27:38.793-07:00Maggie, it's fun to see what you've been u...Maggie, it's fun to see what you've been up to upstairs in that charming studio. I haven't pulled out the scrapbook supplies in several years, so perhaps you will spur me on in that direction. All our hobbies take so much time! It's a good thing though!

During the school year I have little, but during these sumer months I divide my time between various sweet indulgences. One is scrapbooking. I just ordered 250 photos to make an album for my little granddaughter's birthday in August. Her first 4 years. Then I am rekindling my love of sewing. And gardening. And blogging. And crocheting. Keep sharing your pages. I love your style. Do you own a criciut? Another very guilty pleasure.

Your are scrapping. You know many years we did that too, putting our holiday stuff in books but these days this is more beautiful and wider assorted.Yours are really lovely.And you are making tags. I would love to learn that, can you tell me what paper and things I need. I have been looking round the internet but I see that there even are groups for tags these days. Haven't found them yet.<br />How is the weather there? The weather here wasn't so bad lately but today it is pouring. <br />Have a nice day.<br />Hugs from RietMy name is Riethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11794447909120646155noreply@blogger.com
