I thought I'd show you a quick layout I did the other day. My style of actually scrapping has changed this year. I find a photo, select some papers and embellishments and then stick it all down. I've stopped looking at papers and thinking that I might find a better photo to go with it and saving it, after all the layouts and papers stay in my albums so it's not like I'll never see them again!
All day at work I've been dreaming about the 6 layouts I want to do tonight, the magazines I bought today that I want to read and some knitting I want to get done, now that I'm home I'm too tired to do anything! Work just gets in the way of all of the fun stuff :)
I hope you have a great evening

Yes I agree work does stop the fun stuff. Lovely layout. I used to be like you and agonise over the right paper etc but now I just get on with it and stick it down! Hope you manage to do your fun stuff soon.
Love your layout, great title! I know what you mean about work getting in the way, still it means you can justify your scrapbooking purchases I guess!
Love your LO..and I too have stopped saving paper and enjoy using it now

love the layout and I'm trying to do the same as you!
such a cute layout and I too LOVE those Echo Park papers!!
You are absolutely right - use them up because there'll be another nice collection along in a minute!
This is such a great layout Jo and a fab way of working too. I love the layering effect and the zingy colours - it's gorgeous :)
Just like you, I've finally found myself able to get those pretty papers onto layouts just lately!! I'm glad you did, this layout is gorgeous :)
(And so true about that pesky work, bleh!)
A great 'clean' layout which I love. I really like the Jenni Bowlin (?) pennant flags that you have used - they add just the right touch. Thanks for sharing :)
Maybe there is something in the air as I've used a much prized piece of paper this week, and, shock horror, quite a few Thickers! They look so much better on layouts than getting dogeared in boxes don't they? I also dream of scrapping and reading through the day but it is my young children who prevent me getting on with things - shame really as I can see my room and my stash all day teasing me!
These papers are so gorgeous, one of my all time favs, and I really love how you've used them
