A fatal error
A fatal error
My a week taken out from the world of emailing, blogging, tweeting, and all that stuff I so enjoy has been a simultaneous success and dreadful mistake.The problem is, I’ve so enjoyed a week of simple focus – mostly cutting lots of little popups, just for fun – that the idea of returning to my scattershot tapdance of a life is a bit dreadful. This brief change has made me think that the helterskelter activity of my days might actually be pretty inefficient.
Hmm. Maybe what I need is another week out to work on efficiency strategies…

it's good to remember what life away from the "helterskelter" is like. and sometimes, it's a lot more efficient to put that aside. good luck figuring that out though!

Lovely cutouts, and great photos of them too! Perhaps a solution would be do life in batches – one week on, one week off….

Beautiful cutouts! Getting stuff done and staying in touch always creates tension in my life too! All the best with the balancing act!

Gosh I love those paper cuts. You might find that what you've enjoyed is the change and after more time focussed you'll crave the mixture again. Just do what makes you happiest 🙂

Oh how lovely are these?
Hannah Nunn

Oh my! Look what your silence made! They are simply beautiful. I recently took a week off from online 'living' – it made a huge impact on me as I realised just how much cyber stuff I do that isn't really necessary. I love living away from the computer a little more now 🙂

Hmmm – it is a bind – maybe have "Helterskelter Thursdays" (or whatever day) and the rest of the week timing out and focussing?? Great cut-outs! Good luck.

Oh wow. Go now. Turn everything off and keep cutting.

I'm in complete awe of your amazing paper cut outs. Good luck with the tap dance. 🙂

I love these… they are just so beautiful. Time off suits you 😉 Maybe this is just one of those times when you reassess direction… you should take as much time as you need I think. K
Tania Welch
Absolutely brilliant! The cutouts are so lovely! Balancing it all…much easier said than done. 🙂

it's always nice to take some time off from the computer and focus entirely on creative work. The Internet is great but a big drain of time and energy.Really great work on the paper work

Lovely cutouts!

well worth your week off, beautiful designs!
lisa Kjellerød
Beautiful cut-outs! I would never have the patience!
Anna Betts
Beautiful work, but I sympathise with the dilemma. I got back from a week in Portugal lately and still am finding it hard getting back into blogging. A whole week without even checking emails was bliss, alas I am under the digital thumb again… good luck with whatever you decide to do!

These are so beautiful!

So you clearly didn't get much done then did you. ; )
jone hallmark

Candied Fabrics
Oh my GOODNESS! Words can't describe how AWESOME these are….seriously! We all should be 1/10th as productive on a "week off". Obviously you need to take MORE TIME!Bravo!
Eva Juliet
Oh my gosh, there is a lot of work in those cut-outs. The result is fantastic. Bravo!

I just love your cut-out work. I wish I could get as much done in a working week as you do in a week off.
tiel
oh Heather, I haven't been here for ages, and what a pleasure it is to come back and see all your amazingly beautiful work.

Those cutouts are freakin amazing! I also wish I had those red shoes in your last post. Karin
