Crafting Buddies
We all love to create with our buddies, but I’m always surrounded by mine!
I was looking through layouts I did a year ago and noticed one I’ve done of my scrapping area, mess that it was…some things don’t change! But what I did notice is some little trinkets still sitting there with me in the same place they were sitting a year ago. These guys are my scrapping friends!!
I say "scrapping friends" because lots of them were given to me by friends or loved ones and remind me of them!
Kel {my son} made the little caped plasticine guy who sits on top of my monitor…he’s pretty funky! Then I have my little easel that holds ATC’s I’ve been given, a glass bal that was a gift…and then the little glass elephant and mouse that Kel gave me because the match the glass bal. I have my favourite Scarab Beetles to hold down stray receipts and bits before they get put away… tins, pegs, tags, angels, fairies, candles and little wind up toys that make me giggle! They’re all here keeping me company every time I sit at my desk, and I couldn’t part with them! I have a new bear as well who travels with me, my last one stood in for a friend when she couldn’t go to a retreat with the rest of us…and then went to live with her afterwards!

And then here is my favourite…my pink warm fuzzy.
I bought him {yes boys can be pink} from a stall raising money for Breast Cancer Awareness, and bought one for each of my friends…he sits under my monitor watching what I create! I wonder if my friends still have theirs!
And yes…I do know I’m a clutterbug, but it’s nice to have these treasures around me…it truly makes my scrap area mine and have become pieces of me!
Do you have any buddies that keep you company as you create, if you’d care to share I’d love to hear about them!!
