Scrapped.... 5 pages today :)

I actually did some scrapping today. After the store closed, I locked myself in and worked... made a heck of a mess though ;)
Here's a link to my gallery at Scrapbook Star
Only 4 pages are up there so far... but have a look, I had fun :)

Finally!!!

At last... my own, brand new camera... I know it's not the fanciest thing out there.... but so far I am in LOVE... I LOVE the zoom... love that it takes video clips... love how it feels in my hands :) Now I just need to bring Pixie (that's what I call my canon pixma 4000) to the store so I can shoot and print all day long ;)

Virtual Tidying Up!

At the store today, I avoided most the work I had to do and update the gallery and message boards. I posted over 25 magazine calls and contests in the Get Published! forum... also went through and re-organized the gallery....

Typed up the info for May's contest, fun topic and a 10$ gift certificate to be won! I'm thinking about posting it at scrapsubmit.com but then I'd get emails of pages, and I want the user to upload them... so we'll see about that.

It feels like a lazy day today... or maybe I'm just feeling lazy.... It was hard to get out of bed this morning, especially when Brendan has the day off, I just want to stay home with him!

Well enough procrastinating, off for now!

Friday, Friday

Happy Easter to those who celebrate... I personally don't, but love the more commercial version of it, with bunnies and chicks.
For those of you who don't know, tomorrow we're having an egg hunt at the store... eggs will be hidden, with discounts inside.... should be fun. I wish I could find my bunny ears!!!!

I've been thinking a lot lately about getting some guest DT members, there are so many talented ladies out there, who deserve a chance in the spotlight.

So if you're interested or know anyone who is, visit Scrapbook Star and send me an email andwe'll see what we can do :)

The sun is shinning and there's albums to organize, so I'll be on my way..... Hope everyone has a super long weekend!

Happy Easter

Ok, well it's not really Easter yet, but I bought these cute eggs for the store's egg hunt and had to use them in a photo shoot... with everyone's favorite Hammy... Cara!!!!

Today is fun...

Ok so my new racks arrived :) Two were damaged though so those'll have to go back... They were on a truck with stuff for Canadian tire and on my pallet was a bulb for a daffodil... or at least what I think is a daffodil... I love flowers... especially free ones! ;) So I'm going to plant it and see what happens...

Also my BasicGrey order is finally arriving today.... any time now....

And they finally moved that planter that was blocking my store front! Love it, all gone :)

My mom comes back into town tonight too, she hasn't seen the store since it opened, so I'm sure she'll be suprised by how much it's grown since then (like a baby!)

I think i'm getting the hang of this...

Blogging that is ;) Here's some pics I took today:
My eye.... nothing too interesting, but an ok shot with a crappy camera ;) Also an earring I made, pretty huh?
And without further a do... my new bike!!! It's not pink, but that can be fixed ;)

Today... I scrapped

The colors on this seem off, i'm sure... i'm not used to the scanner at the store... but you get the point ;)

I took 30 minutes out of my day, or morning rather and made a cute little 8x8 of my beloved hammy, Cara.
Soon Cara will have a buddy, my sister's ferret, which I'll be taking care of for a little bit... something else for me to spoil and take zillions of pics of!!

Someone was listening!

So on Wednesday I declared my hatred for boxes.... and since... no deliveries... I know next week I'm expecting at least 3 but probably more.... Which is ok... that's what I do, I get boxes, I open them, I adore everything in them and then I make room ;)

Not loving boxes....

Ok, so I know last week I was digging getting all these boxes... now i'm sort of regretting that announcement... it seems this week, an attack... by the delivery guys, all bringing me boxes full of stuff.... the store is getting SO full.... more racks will be arriving soon, thank goodness, and we put up more pegboard too... I'll take a pic soon, maybe with a new camera if I ever find one i like....
