Its hard when a hobby turns into a kind of job, you sometimes loose the passion, because you have to do a layout etc, and you find less and less time to actually scrap for you. I have felt that my layout designs were deteriorating, and that my heart wasnt in it any more. I started to question whether I should give up all my design duties and pack it all in! Thankfully this weekend I have scrapped, and it has actually been for DT duties but I have so enjoyed myself!
Here are a couple of snapshots of 3 projects I completed this weekend.

Maybe all I needed was a few months off after all to renew my passion.
If you are in a scrapbook/creative rut dont worry, maybe you need sometime out. I did alot of knitting whilst I wasnt scrapping. Maybe a change of craft is needed. If the passion is still there it WILL come back, and if it isnt, well maybe you are ready for a new passion!
Thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoyed my snapshots of my scrapping weekend.

Hi Anna!
Thanks for your comment on my blog. :) LOVE your blog designs and your work is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I totally get what you mean about it becoming a job. That's what burned me out a few years ago and I haven't gone back. I actually got rid of every scrapping product I had. Crazy! Kind of regretting that now. :(

I'm having trouble viewing your photos. They always show up on the blog as very long vertically and squished in horizontally.
