Scrapping ~ maybe

Jodi — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 00:29:49 +0000

I think I may break out the scrapbook supplies for a while. I should be able to mess with my photos with a bum arm. Lord knows I have a ton of pictures that need to be scrapped. I have yet to print off one picture since getting my new camera a few years ago. Let’s just say… I have thousands and thousands of photos! I would love to take some baby pics and help a few friends work on their birth announcements for their babies to be. I am so excited to meet their little ones! I just wish both of them lived closer!

Checks or plastic?

Do businesses still take check by phone? I rarely write checks anymore. It so much easier to just whip out the plastic to pay for things. The craziest thing, I still have to have my checkbook with me in my purse. Why? I don't know! I need to just leave it at home, and then I could put my pictures in the area where the checkbook is in my wallet. If only I had my rubber stamps and ink pads, then I could scrap a photo cover for the sleeve my pictures are in.

Craft shows

I love going to craft shows. They give me lots of ideas of new knitting projects I can do. Some of the booths have some really awesome cardboard displays with all of their projects they have for sale. There is one item that I am still trying to figure out how to make.

I have seen these photo frames, that have been altered with either paper or fabric, and either have them as a way to display a picture or use it as a backdrop for a wall calendar. I have an old clipboard that I want to use for a wall calendar. I am going to have my hubby take the clip part off, and then somehow add some bolts that I can take off to add a new years calendar year after year. I am hoping I can find a cute little chef that will match my kitchen decor to add to this. I just need to get my creative juices working again.

Scrapbooking

I need to get back into this. I haven't touched my scrapbooks in over a year. I don't even want to know how far behind I am. Let alone know how many pictures are waiting for me to upload to be printed.

I love this fall layout design.

I will have to see if I can get together with some friends a few Saturday's this winter to try and make a dent in my piles of pictures!

Digital Scrapbooking

Jodi — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 23:15:00 +0000

I need to get back into scrapbooking, and I am thinking about going digital. But if I do, I have so much stuff on hand that I spent lots of money one. I should just use up what I have first, then go digital. I found this site that has free kits, which will be great, as I know I won't be able to spend any money on new stuff right away.

I have so many pictures in my file cabinets, and so many more that have been uploaded. I can't believe how many pictures I have taken since getting my new camera 2 years ago! I think I have only developed a few in the last two years. I know that I will never scrap all that I have taken, so they will either just stay on the computers, or will be saved onto a CD.

So have you made the switch to digital scrapbooking? Do you like it?

Scrap area

I saw these tv stands systems that look really cool. I am thinking I might want to get one, and use it in my scrapbok area. They have some that look like armoirs, so I can close it up when I am done working, and it won't take up a huge area in my living room like the table set up I have right now. It just makes everything look messy and cluttered. Time to save up some of the green stuff and possibly buy one.

Scrappin’

Jodi — Sun, 28 Dec 2008 20:36:12 +0000

Now the Christmas is over with, I can now get back to working on other projects. I need to get back into scrapbooking, as my pictures are piling up and i have yet to print off a single picture that has been taken on the new camera. I have over 4,000 pictures that have been taken just waiting to be printed. I spent some time today going through my scrapbook area seeing what all I have for supplies. I came across some Ferrari parts stickers that I have no idea where I got them from. The things you find when you clean!

I scrapped!!

Jodi — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 20:23:07 +0000

I actually did a page!! I plan on getting a frame for this and will be hanging it up on our living room wall by a cross stitch I did.

A few pages for a scrap swap

I think they turned out pretty ok.

A scrappers franchise??

Jodi — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 01:21:18 +0000

I would love to own my own franchise one of these days. We have looked into several that appeal to me and my hubby, one being a Culver's. They have the best food! Its a step up from the other fast food chains. But what I would really like to own is a Archiver's. I went in my first one this past November, and oh my what a store! They have anything you could imagine for your scrapbooking desires! I talked with one of the ladies there to see if there was one here in Michigan, she said there was, but its on the East side of the state. I would love to have one in Grand Rapids!
