Changes

Hello everyone - hope you're all having a wonderful Wednesday!
So as you may have noticed, I have changed the appearance of my blog... decided it was time for a change... wasn't entirely sure about this background, but it was the only that jumped out at me, and the more I played around with it, the more I like it. What do you think? I'm liking the warm tones now that Autumn has crept up on us... can you believe it? We've had so many cool days here over Summer, that it barely feels like we had a Summer at all... really not looking forward to Winter...
Having said that though, it was the perfect excuse to go and put some new Winter clothes on layby... I think I'll have to invest in some thermals too this year! Gosh, such a shock to the system after living half my life in Darwin!!!!
Today, I have a question for you... what is your favourite scrapping technique? There are so many wonderful techniques that people use... do you find you use a variety and mix them all up, or do you tend to stick to one or two faves? Me, I tend to try a bit of everything at the moment. I think I am still discovering what exactly my personal style is... which is a bit of a pain in some ways, because I try to emulate things I've seen and loved, and end up producing a terrible LO that I really don't like.... grrr!!
Does anyone have any tips they can share?? I think I'm feeling a bit lost with my scrapping at the moment.......
Well, that'll do for now... I look forward to reading all your feedback!
Thanks for looking. Warmest wishes, Catie xo

  1. Judging by the layouts below, you don't look lost at all..they are so creative, just gorgeous work! I know what you mean about layouts not working well when you emulate someone else's style, I have found that too. I don't really have a favourite technique that I can think of, although I do love to drybrush backgrounds and use that as my base, instead of starting with a blank canvas that can be daunting. :)
