Week 2 - Project Life Art/ & Project 365

I did a few 4 x 6 cards for my Project Life Art/Journal this week. Some were done digitally and some were done with paper. I will note above each photo which is which.

This one was done digitally.

This was done using paint chips and punches. It's a dream/wish to take the kids to Disney World one day.

Another paper one. This was done using some new rubber stamps I got at Michaels this past week on clearance and some old scrapping supplies I had bought years ago. It's fun finally doing some paper stuff again.

I am continuing on my project 365 (4th year). I'm going to do it again digitally but I am going to do it more simple like in the project life format. Hopefully adding more journaling. Here is my first 2 weeks.

2012 - Project Life - Art/Journal

My goal was to add the concept of Project Life in 2012 but wanted to use my own supplies to do so. It took me a few days to figure out how I was going to do that. I am all digital now. Been that way for about 7 years now. I occasionally do pull out my scrapping supplies to do cards but lately the urge to do more hands on scrapping has been there. However, I did not want to go to 12 x 12 in size. I went to Michaels to get albums for us to start our project. I was hoping to get like an 8 x 11 book but there were no three ring ones available. They had the 12 x 12 but didn't want to go that size nor did I want to pay a high price for each album as I needed 4. I finally found these smaller albums that were $9.99 each but after coupons I was able to get it for like $6.40 each. The pages fit 2 4 x 6 in size. Got one for each of my children so they can play as well.

I may or may not put photos in mine. I'm hoping to use maybe digital products as well as paper products in mine and maybe do like one 4 x 6 journaling card a week. Here is my title page for my album.


We decided to alter our covers a little bit. The light purple is my album. The butterfly purple album is my daughters, the blue album is my sons and the pink album is my other daughters.

Here I am with my completed cover.

Holiday Shopping - Games 2011

I haven't been scrapping as much lately. What's been taking up all my time? I've been researching for the best gifts for this holiday season. I'm still in the process of narrowing down what to get them since they really don't need anything.

Oh by the way, if you haven't yet signed up for ebates you should. Today, I shopped in 2 online stores. Barnes and Noble and Kmart. Both stores had free shipping. B&N gave me back 8% and Kmart 6% on the total of my order. I get money deposited into my paypal account quarterly. It's great. I have already earned $100 for this year. To sign up click on ebates above.

After cleaning out our game closet last month you can see my post about that here. I decided that we needed to add more games to our closet. These are the 3 new games they will open in December in no particular order. I linked the games to amazon if you want to purchase them. I did not purchase from amazon since ebates doesn't support amazon. I bought them from Barnes and Noble and Kmart. I also included the videos that shows you how to play the games.







3. Ligretto Card Game This one maybe my favorite since you can play all at once and no taking turns. Also can play all the way up to 12 players which probably would be crazy to do but I think would be fun when cousins come to visit.... hint.... hint....



Happy Shopping
