Car Need.

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

Now that I am interested in cars because of the need for owning your own mode of transport here in the province, I have been reading up all I can so that maybe we can have funds to afford to get one – it has been greatly bumped up to our list of things we NEED to buy :) . Anyhow, along with the reading and finding out information is the goal to actually learn to drive! I hope to learn to drive by June, since we are really busy this month. I also need to learn how to maintain a car, right? Speaking of that, midwest auto recycling specializes in used engines and transmissions and has one of the strongest warranty nation wide. All miles are CARFAX verified. All ENGINES come as a complete assembly. They are started ,inspected for compression, cylinder leak down tested, checked for oil pressure and cleaned. ALL TRANSMISSIONS are test driven, visually inspected and cleaned.

NSD Goodies.

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Maybe this will help me be accountable. Jacq and I were talking about the need to scrap what we bought (she is doing good at that category while I havent even scrapped mine yet).

You can also see it here.

Now, I have a mile a list long at The Lily Pad, but I will most definitely be snagging up this awesome collab.
I want this kit by Madame Mim.
And I have worked with SMJ’s designs before and I know this will be such an easy kit to work with.
Now, with DD, I have a list a mile long too, but I might get goodies from Anna Aspnes.

Stay tuned for my product picks from my awesome creative teams (that will be a hard list to do since I love ALL the work they put out).

Here is the masterlist for NSD sales this weekend – don’t miss it = May 3 and 4 :)

Bad Blogger Update.

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I know.

I need to be more consistent in updating this thing. I have become way too disorganized with our recent house move and if you are OC like me, anything that isnt organized will make you spin like crazy! Ugh. I have been so bad with everything – including scrapping. I did manage to scrap a few pages (like six or seven) and it felt good – nothing beats having a laptop that makes you portable (scrap anywhere) with 2GB ram and one can finish a page in under an hour – provided you have ideas already. Love that.

Will be back for some layout shares.

Paintball

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Hobbies can be quite addicting! Aside from digital scrapbooking, the only hobby that lasted for more than a year with me is photography – which actually goes hand in hand with scrapbooking :) . Guy hobbies are more extensive and expensive. I can tell from experience with my husband! So far, the only hobby he hasnt taken is paintball. That is because he hasnt found a hobby buddy yet! When you engage in the sport/hobby, you need paintball guns, paintball goggles, hats, hoodies, jerseys, paintballs, paintball field gear and accessories for the sport. ZephyrPaintball.com has Paintball and Airsoft Gear with low Prices and free shipping on Paintball guns, Paintball goggles, Airsoft equipment and gear, including tippmann paint guns. Zephyr Sports was founded in 2003 as an internet retailer focusing on the sport of paintball.

Dont forget to lift Revlie’s gallery here and post your layout in this blog post to get an extra point before Thursday next week.

SSD Slogan Challenge: Finger Licking Good

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

04-20 Finger Licking Good

This is the first time Im hosting the Slogan Challenge and I chose to highlight the slogan challenge from KFC:

Finger-licking good!

Have fun creating your pages using the slogan! As a mother of two kids who have very strong preferences when it comes to food (read: they can eat the same type of food week after week after week), I have so many pictures with them and their favorite foods)

I can even make a list of all the foods I love. With all the foods I crave, I need to get leptovox pills to help me lose weight! Im a little bit skeptical about taking them but reviews say they are the most effective.

Rare Coins

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

My grandmother is a collector of coins. She has a rare coin that dates back from the Roman era – the coin is malformed just with the stamp/seal of the government (I think at that time it was Cesar). I know this would have cost a fortune already. Coins are worthwhile investment as they increase in value in time. Take for example the Monaco Rare Coin. Monaco Rare Coin offers a unique, vast and impressive array of resources for investors and collectors alike. At Monaco, you will find the finest rare coins available, an experienced and knowledgeable cadre of professionals ready and willing to serve your needs, and a broad range of investment programs and products to fit most any budget. Through Monaco you have immediate access to a wide range of investment-grade coins, valued in excess of $10,000,000. Other selections of coins can be acquired on short notice. You can rely on Monaco’s established two-way buy-and-sell market for rare coins and precious metals products.

LO Share: Dream Big

Saturday, April 19th, 2008

04-17 Dream BIg

This uses Lauren Grier and Manda Bean’s Two Scoops Kit – Bob and Willis. It is an old kit but I had to have it because the papers were calling me. I am trying to be conscious of snagging both boy and girl kits from SSD so I can scrap Matthew more.

This was taken at UST way back June 2007 when they had their well-baby check-ups with their pedia (well, obviously they are not babie anymore). The outdoor furniture at the new garden they have set up were so nice we ended up taking pictures with it.

LO Share: Stop It!

Saturday, April 19th, 2008

I think I have not had a decent picture of the Princess lately, yep, no smiles or whatever. Just all these pictures:

04-05 Stop It

So I need to scrap with it :) My princess is becoming too feisty for my own good. I think I need life insurance to make me sure she is covered even if Im gone (safety measures), LOL. She is not as terrible as she looks, just really feisty. Ive got a girl with loads of personality.

This one uses Gina Miller’s collab with Traci Murphy and Two Sisters Designs. Ive been seeing acrylic popout galleries lately and it is something different I want to try. So there :D
