If you have a moment, please take a minute to check out my Mole's Musings on the Home Page and let me know what YOU think!

Hi there,

I totally agree! There is some fantastic work here but more often than not it makes we want to up-tools and play - now that can't be bad!

Odd really as it never deterrs me from scrapping - even though I see and admire stuff that I would never be able to do. Except.... when it comes to the CC mystery kits! Everyone is always trying to get hold of these and I have never bothered.... because I am so intimidated by the stuff that people actually create with them!!

[PinkLady]

i no what your saying i feel the same all the time i see such beautiful work, and i (in my own words) think mine is pants i only dream of being able to create such beautiful things

[madhattermillie]

i see others work, and view it as an inspiration, a stepping stone to create my current perfect layout. i am not ashamed to admit a number of scraplifts.

I love looking at someone elses work and imagining what i could do different or even exactly the same! and to be honest i have been much happier with the lifted layouts than i have with some of my own!

[knitkath]

Totally agree, but it is an inspiration. Must do better! Can spend hours just browsing all the galleries, instead of scrapping!
My first cc and have ordered the mystery kit, don't suppose it will turn into anything magical overnight though, but I will have fun, fun, fun

I was so blown away by others work on here I was too terrifed to scrap from the time I joined in 2004 until Feb this year!!!!!! All that aside I went for an interview with a craft store yesterday and although I do not know the outcome as yet he asked me if I were successful would I be interested in running a crop and classes at the store as he loved my work!!! Just shows that you never ever see your own in the same way as other and as such would encourage people to post their LOs (even if the thought terrifies you - I STILL get nice comments on the first on I did on here!!!) and see what comments come in - use the Praise -a -thon too!

[cheekygirl]

good luck Helen hope you get it
Everyones work is excellant on here and everyone puts their heart and soul into their lo's it is a british thing to not admit what your good at but I am proud of each lo at the end of the day they are for my family and they wont be comparing my work to anybody elses

[Mole]

Helen - that's great, a real encouragement to us all!

[Voodoo Vixen]

Well done Helen! I hope you get the job and have great fun with it.

Cheekygirl - I think you just said it all.... our families won't be comparing our work wit other peoples - and will see it for what it is, an abundance of memories put together with love.

[Bluemoonjules]

Yes, loads of talented people on here, and some great imaginations - but, no, I don't feel intimidated. Sometime I have a bit of the green-eyed monster and wish something was MY work but nothing makes me think I couldn't do the same if I wanted to or tried.

[EmilyLovedHim]

I think the main thing to remember with you LOs is WHO are you doing it for? the work in a lot of mags is done for the mag and not for someone's own personal use. Having said this I am proud to say that my photos are also used by Rosemary Merry who is using some of my DD in an upcoming Christmas LO of SI mag!!
