Love this tool - and love this little video

When I was cleaning up my scraproom and looking at all the tools that are in there - some I use a lot others only now and then, I moved my cropadile to my tool bag as I tend to use it quite a lot.  Recently on Pinterest I discovered a link to this great little video on it, so sharing it for you peeps.   I absolutley LURVE that it will punch through Chipboard like a hot knife through butter - so very handy.

September - how did you get here so quick?

I am not sure where time goes lately  but it seems to slip through my gate quickly and my TO DO list never seems to shorten; for every item I cross off I add another 2 or 3.  The project for the past few weeks has been a MASSIVE cleanout of my scrapbook room \ studio\ design space or whatever you want to call it.  Once it is done (and I am doing a total overhaul) I know that once again it will be my happy space.  It has been wonderful to rediscover my stash, and also find come pages completed and not yet in an album.  As our youngest child turned 30 a week or so back, it has been fab discovering old photos of him and his sisters - both scrapped and not, and again I ask where does time go?  

I am sharing some older pages scrapbooked that I found in my clean up - they are early styled but a but fun, and it serves as reminder that no matter if the style of scrapping has changed over the years, and that now there seems to be much more product used on a layout, the essence remains the same. Memories documented to be enjoyed, feelings recorded to be revisited and love shared.
