My Passions

Hi there Bloglanders

While hopping along Blogland for my daily dose of  inspiration, I came upon a challenge from "another-freaking-scrappy-challenge".  Scrap your passions.  I normally only use Afrikaans in my titles so my first problem was - a decent word for Passion in Afrikaans. I couldn't come up with any.  "Liefde" (Love) was the best I could do but that doesn't sound as passionate as "Passion".

Second problem - I have a lot of passions. I sew, I bake, I cook, I read, I love my home, I love my family and the list continues into infinity.

Third problem - what to use and what to leave out.

Fourth problem - I'm really busy right now and just don't have to sort through pictures and have them printed. Remember, I'm from Sunny SA - African time applies here.

So I came up with this:

I used a quote as a title as I don't mind them being English - most of them are anyway.  Then I divided me passions into categories, journalled a bit about each and printed it vellum, tore the edges and glued them into a square.  As I keep all my left over pictures in a bin, I went through them and chose some that represent my passions.  I didn't cover them all but I used what I had.  I'm proud to say that I didn't have to pay for anything used on this page.

As part of my philosophy to "Live Light" in 2013  I plan to do more pages like this where I only use what I already have.

That's it. Have a wonderful week and thanks for visiting. Please come back to play as I'll be sharing some more of my crafting fun right here on Play as U Go.
