This move just took more out of me than I realized. I am gearing up for the ride swap early though and *scraplifted* something cool that I am going to work on so I can perfect it now..lol..
Originally Posted By hopemax See this is what, I'm afraid of...my stuff is not that good. My books look so very boring to me.

That's why I am probably bringing stuff from the DIS swaps I am signed up for, to the party instead of photos...then I don't have to think about layouts.

I have the general idea just need to work on putting it together. My biggest problem is I can work something in my head and it sounds just amazing, I just haven't figured out how to make it LOOK like I THINK it should. I have no creative genes in my body But I do have a grand idea for the ride swap..lol.. so Im going to try my hand at paper piecing which is something I have always wanted to try. I will show you on the 3rd..

I don't even know how I would even begin to go about putting something like that together. Me...find a page to wallpaper the background, pick one of two colors to mat photos, place photos...say to myself, "the page looks really empty and boring." I'm hoping all the swap goodies will give me inspiration!

Originally Posted By LadyKluck I'd like to do a ride swap too. I'm not very happy with my character stuff because what I really wanted to do I ended up not being able to. I had it in my head exactly what I wanted because I had seen the stuff at this scrapbooking store a couple of weeks before the swap even started and when I went back to get the stuff the dang store was out of business!!! NICE!! I couldn't find the stuff anywhere else in town so I had to improv! Oh well - I love these things and I don't go anywhere near DIS anymore so I gotta get my fix somewhere! Hopemax, you are the swap queen - I just drool all over your stuff everytime I get it (well not literally of course)! Your sunwheel of death paper piece is still my favorite.
