i have a friend's baby shower coming up and i will be sharing my projects for that. i'm also working on several projects now - a layout, a calendar for a friend and probably a mini-album as well. i'm calling it a week and my weekend will officially start in a few minutes. so i hope you enjoy the tags and more importantly, your weekend.

of tags and terrariums
i've had a fascination for terrariums for a while now and have attempted to create something that captures the essence of containing a world in a jar. this series is one of those attempts. this will probably be my last tag series in a while and i'm still trying to figure out my next project and theme for my year of creativity project.

tags, swaps and washi tape
so here i am finally with my long overdue update. i am sharing my second batch of tags although i am so behind on my year of creativity project - 21 tags, 0 layouts and 0 albums. i am rethinking the one tag/project a day to one tag/project a week. i always seem to be exhausted from work that after dinner, i can barely keep my eyes open and i just head straight to bed. but that's something that i need to mull over. in the meantime, hope you enjoy the tags.

biting off more than i can chew
during the past year, i've been overwhelmed by the joy of accumulating new things that i actually forgot about what drew me to this hobby in the first place - the joy of creating. i am trying to cut down on the shopping but i also wanted to purposely make time for crafting - to use up my stash but also to be able to breathe and recharge. i think for me, art has become as necessary as food and sleep.i find this quote so apt especially during this season in my life - art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
i dubbed my project a year of creativity and at the end of the year, i wanted to be able to create 366 projects (tags, cards, canvas, etc), 100 layouts and 12 albums. so far, i've made around 14 tags. i've not yet decided what to do with them, probably use them on other projects or with gifts.
i have not been very diligent in posting my progress here in my blog but i have been creating albeit not as regularly as i hoped i would. however, i have been posting updates through my twitter account in case you are interested in following me and my attempt to infuse more creativity in my life.crafting and creating breaks, quiet time and blogging are some of the activities i have to integrate in my daily routine.
anyway, without further ado, here are my tags for the first week. let me know what you think. enjoy the week ahead everyone.
