my grab bag + what is me (now)

i was reading the ck mag, and ali edwards was talking about making mini albums on the go. so one of the things she suggested was compiling a little bag of essentials so that scrapbooking on the go wouldn't be such a put off because of the need to pack the stuff. so i decided to share what i think essentials are for me. at the moment, i'm really into labels, journaling tags and tabs. i recently (FINALLY) got some tag and tab punches! been waiting forever to get some. haha. so i spent some time yesterday going through my smaller scraps to punch some tags and tabs. (: andrew was really sweet and helped. so i've got some jam and candy jars and my uber cute robot tin. using those to house the tabs and tags. so naturally my grab bag has some tags and tabs too. ((:

sheryl's grab bag:
  • labels
  • tabs
  • tags
  • glue stick
  • tape glue
  • pva glue
  • pen knife
  • scissors
  • cutting mat
  • metal ruler
  • white signo
  • pencil (eraser)
this doesn't include my pencil case which has my other bits of stationery like pens and all. so the grab bag i choose has two compartments. a larger (almost A4 size) compartment, which i'll put the bits of my project in and the smaller compartment where my essentials will go. note i didn't put items that would cost me too much, because since its on the go, there is the possibility that i would lose some stuff. but if i were going for a class or a crop session, i'd prolly bring my cutterbee (penknife) and honeybee (scissors) and perhaps even my dymo :p 



what is me now (in terms of craft)?

(note: i used wordle for this, having some trouble with making it larger, so clicking on the picture will direct you to the wordle website where you will see a large version of this)
