Welcome to our Final Inspiration Challenge.
This post has taken some amount of time and much thought to put together today as it is our very final Get Picky post!
It is with much careful thought and considerable sadness that we have decided to close our Get Picky site. When we began our little journey we didn't ever put any real expectations or time lines on ourselves. We thought it was a great idea and kinda hoped that others might too.
Over the course of the past year and a half, we have both had considerable changes in our personal everyday lives and feel that the juggle is becoming increasingly more challenging. When we began Get Picky, we had not long finished with our Design Team work for Kaisercraft and were still in the thick of scrapping each week. Neither of us were working at that stage and our families were at much easier stages. Things however change. Families, small children, kinder runs, school, work, study and everything else in between has become much more demanding of our time and I guess in the end we have had to weigh up where our priorities lay. There is nothing worse than the feeling that you are doing a lesser job than you would like and there have been times when that has been the case. At the end of each day, it's nice to be able to say that you did the best you could with the things that are most important. So for us, it means making life a little less complicated to better concentrate on those things.
We have been so fortunate to have shared our time with some of the most amazingly talented women who have generously shared their stunning work with us each month. We'd like to say a heartfelt thanks to each and everyone of you. From our beautiful design team girls, to our awesome guests each month. Your talent and creativity has been breathtaking.
We'd like to also thank the generosity of our many fantastic sponsors! We have been so privileged to offer some spectacular prizes all because of the amazing kindness of the many manufacturers and scrapbooking stores.
And last, but by no means least,
we'd like to thank all of you, who have followed and played along with our challenges each month. We hope we've provided you with lots of inspiration and a fun way to prompt some of that scrapping creativity. We are so grateful for your support.
So without further ado, here is our final inspiration prompt. An enormous thanks to all the beautiful people out there who have been part of out little Get Picky journey.
