Uck! It's Wednesday...

I'm not saying that just because it's Wednesday and it's scrapbooking night at The Scrapbook Room.

I'm not even saying it because Wednesday nights at The Scrapbook Room have been so darned quiet and no one --yes, NO ONE shows up--some weeks.

I'm saying it because IT''S SNOWING!  

That means likely NO ONE will show up tonight! (I probably wouldn't either if I was snuggled in my house and looked out into a snow storm). So please, just let me know if you intend to come. If anyone is, that's fantastic and I'll be there. If not, I'll check out the weather later today and decide from there if I'm going!

So anyway, with that said, I hear there's 12 NEW cartridges for The Slice. Geez, I gotta get one of them. You can check out the new cartridges here.

I have completed my February 12 page and will try to get it posted soon. Anyone else done one?

See YOU tonight???

Happy Valentine's Day...

Here's my 12...I'll be scrapbooking them later today at The Sweetheart Crop....watch for my finished pages coming soon.

It seems like there's not a lot of variety in my days but maybe they'll get better as the months go on...here we've got...

(top l. to r.)

breakfast (wheat toast & jam), my van/Steve's car in the rain, work computer, coffee break at work, lunch at work--

(Middle, l. to r.) Father Jim's birthday, printed bulletins, calling Microsoft, Gerry waiting to go to work

(bottom l. to r.) still talking to Microsoft, in Shoreview with Noella, CWL meeting (Aunt Lily last one there!), Noella asleep when I got home!

And that--was my day!

Where are your 12 pictures/pages?

~Pauline

12th is almost over...

....did YOU take your 12?

I sort of did....I'm sure I have 12...I have 12 of Noella with the cat because she wanted me to keep taking more....I probably have 12 of me on computers...talking to microsoft etc...anyway I think I have 12...I tried to take one per hour and may try post them according to the hours...I need to order prints so I can maybe scrapbook them on Saturday.

Did YOU remember the "Sweetheart Crop" is Saturday? There's still plenty of room---$8.00 with a dessert for the contest, $10.00 without--2 pm to 2am! Sure to be a nice evening of scrapbooking.

See you there?

~Pauline

PS Watch for my 12 pictures to be posted here. Send me yours if you want them posted.

Are you ready?

The 12th is almost here...get your camera ready.

Don't worry if you didn't do it last month. You can start now.

Just take 12 pictures of your everyday life...it can be things you see, people you know, places you go or just tiny details like what you have for lunch or what you got in the mail. It could be your kids being silly or sleeping, your pet being cute or maybe the scene from your back door (this is neat to do every time so that you note how the view changes!)....anything goes. No rules. They're your photos...someday someone will be able to see how life was on the 12th of every month in 2009.

Doesn't that sound fun?

Now, is the camera ready?

~Pauline

PS Tomorrow is Wednesday and Saturday is Sweetheart Crop (see details in a previous post!)

So I did it...

...popped into Two Peas in a Bucket's online crop...a bit too slow-paced and chatty for me...not that I don't like to chat but it's a little hard to scrapbook if you have to keep refreshing a screen...that being said....they did inspire me....
First I made this cute little birthday card...love the envelope template!

Then I saw the challenge to use whatever is on your desk "right now" so I made this little "Hi" card with some things that were laying around...

Then I found this sketch challenge and used it to create this layout...

All in all, I'm happy with the night...
And what have you been up to?
