It's That Time Again...

August. I wonder if that means summer will finally start. I swear, we must have switched summers with BC this year. Or South Korea. Seriously, this is nuts.

This is the time of year when for some unexplained reason, I always get the craving to scrap Christmas pages. I got 4 done in the last week! With holidays, trying to keep The Boy entertained all day, and worrying about whether I'm picking up enough shifts, I'm amazed there's been any time for scrapping at all. Yet this is what I feel like scrapping.



There are so many gorgeous Christmas themed scrapping supplies out there...who says you only have to use them in December? Or January, for that matter...I have to wonder about that. I think LSS's should promote Christmas products in January, since that's really when we'd be scrapping our Christmas photos, isn't it? Oh well, that's just my 2 cents.



So I got talked into picking up some Glimmer Mist the other week there. The woman in the LSS was all excited about getting it in, saying it had already been selling out pretty fast, and my friend was all over it too. It just looks so swirly and hypnotic in that little bottle, doesn't it? Anyway, I tried it and wasn't that impressed. It does look lovely on raw chipboard, but so far that's the ONLY thing it works on. It won't stick to anything the least bit shiny, and curls paper and cardstock. If you're a big fan of chipboard and sparkly, this is your product. I just wish it worked on a wider range of stuff.
