Farewell to July...

Happy Saturday Morning! It's the last Saturday of July 2007. I thought I'd relist a couple of layouts I'd made this month with ultra low prices... I scrap 8.5 x 11, so they're going to just collect dust here for me... So... bid away! ;-)

I have 5 auctions up at eBay right now. Two were listed this morning, others end late Sunday. If you have a moment, check them out!

I have a 2page layout that has to be done before midnight, but chores to do, too. Eek! I've been putting off this layout all week and now I'm down to the wire. Plus, I've got a lunch date with my mom... Oh boy do I know how to procrastinate or what?!? LOL

Wish me luck!

Scrapping with my eyes closed...

Well, right now I'm typing with my eyes closed, anyway! ;-) Staying up till 3am last night is catching up to me. Even listening to New Wave from the 80's as I type is not working... Sleep is overcoming me! Oh no!

Here are 2 layouts I finished today... One is for ScrapLove, the other is for the 3 Bugs sketch contest. I'm not crazy about the 3 Bugs one. Some elements I really like. Other things I'm not digging. Oh well. Like I said, scrapping with my eyes closed, what do I expect?!? LOL





I have another layout to do for ScrapNCircle and then I'll finish this little book I'm working on for eBay.

OOOOOOoh, I won first place at CreativeXpress http://www.creativexpress.com/community/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=21927&cat=532 for July! I'm so excited!!
That's enough to make me open my eyes a little!!

ANyway, I'm going to bed. Have a great weekend!

Chore books and other "stuff"

Now that the Spam-bots have unlocked my blog, I am once again free to blog away! That was highly annoying to want to come here and share sketches, share my ideas, on and on and on... anywhoo... I am a real person with a real blog! LOL

I have 3 auctions up at eBay right now. I am also
taking special orders and up for adding specific
chores to the books -- for instance if your family has
a prayer time or bible study, gardening, etc. Feel
free to email me.

Here is a sketch for the week, too... (I had trouble with photobucket this week, too... I have no idea what my problem with computers is right now! LOL)


This week I have 2 layouts I need to complete for scrapping challenges at ScrapLove and ScrapNCircle. I'm struggling to find time and inspiration for both. Today's my DD's birthday and so I've got a lot to do with that... as well as my usual scrap for hire and household duties. Can you believe my husband and children want to have (gasp!) three meals a day AND snacks thrown in? I know! Don't they know how to put a HotPocket into the microwave? LOL Anyone ever heard of cold cereal? Toast? But once in a while I *do* need to eat, too. I have noticed that on days that I eat more regularly, I lose weight. I have to keep my blood sugar stabilized.

Again, if you haven't signed up for the EASIEST CONTEST IN THE WORLD, you only have FIVE MORE DAYS to go to ScrappersAnonymous and enter the Stampboard Contest-- The EASIEST CONTEST EVER. You should do it!  The stampboard is a fun new product and you'll get to try it for FREE. Who doesn't love free SCRAPBOOK PRODUCTS?...

I love comments and emails... feel free to leave me a smilie... let me know that someone is reading! ;-)

I have been busy scrapping this week! I've got new layouts up for auction as well as an ADORABLE Chore Book that is looking for a new home. I originally made a chore book for my girls --

Summer Scrappin' Contests

Well, I've gone ahead and signed up for 2 - multi-week contests at two different sites. What am I thinking?!? LOL I've got kids home, paper crafting for hire to do, as well as the usual around the house stuff to do... But I want to scrap sooooo much and I know this will motivate me! So... I'm doing it!

I'm signed up at... ScrapNCircle http://www.scrapncircle.com

and ScrapLove http://www.scraplove.com

If you're in need of motivation like me, come on over and join in the fun! Oh wait! DON'T join! I need better chances to win! ;-) Nah, I'm kidding. Come over and get your scrap on!

Okay, I told myself that I was coming to the computer to write a quick email and then I'm back to the giant pile of laundry, so I must go back... HELP! LOL

Have a happy, scrappy day!

I discovered BRUSHES!

Well, I suppose for the non-digitally scrapbooking challenged (and photoshopping experts) brushes are not a big revelation, but I finally found a tutorial online this morning and "figured it out". Gosh, where have I been?? LOL

So, I made this sketch to *hopefully* inspire you (and ME!) to scrap this week. I'll have to do some reverse printing on the computer to get nice flourishes as I'm all out of pre-made ones... But what good is an x-acto knife if you're afraid to use it, right?!?



Now that I've used an entire morning on the computer, it's time to get started on my day... Those pesky mountains of laundry are still there... and GROWING!

Have a great day!
