It's A Whole New Day...

One of the scrapbook pages I worked on this weekend. That is our ugly wood stove!! I hate that thing. It's dirt, ugly and stinks the place up. But last week when we had cold weather 29* it decided not to work at all. So we went 2 days using that little radiator heater. It can not heat a 4 bedroom house!!! We had on sweaters and gloves... Finally my husband was able to tear it apart on Saturday.... And we have heat again. But we will be getting a new heating system this Summer for sure. So for now I Love It!! :)

How about that cute camp fire? I got that over at Paperthreads from Chris Durnan she has super cute cutter files. She also has a super cool blog. Go over and say HI...

I did receive my new KNK but haven't gotten it out of the box yet. I guess I should work on that. Maybe cut out some more of Chris's files I have collected. And Maybe some of Lori's too.

More later....

HELP....I Can't Figure it Out...

Update I figured it out!! Yippie... :)
Ok I'm having a problem with the file size for the GSD. I can't seem to make the words small enough to up load I even tried zipping it. Any suggestions? Just the words by themselves are 12.3 MB I must have not done something to them in WINPC, but I don't know how to fix them. Help would be appreciated if you know what I did wrong. Otherwise I'll try and fix it later this weekend.

I haven't had time for much else as I was watching Grey's Anatomy the last two nights. That Mr. McDreamy is very cute. I've only had a chance to watch the first 4 episodes of season 3 but it's good so far. Tomorrow my honey wants to watch the football game at the school he works at. So I'll probably go with him even though I'm not into sports.. I can always read my book. He loves that (NOT), but I am spending time with him even if I'm not watching.

Also I would really like to get one of these, but I can't decide which one. The yellow one will cut up to 15" across and the white one will do up to 13". Do I really need that extra 2"?? $949 verses $1299?? I just don't know..... Do you have a preference? Maybe I'll dream about the one I should eventually get tonight.

Until Later... Heather :)

Sunny Days

Mexico October 2007. We had a blast, but it was super hot for us Oregonians. These pictures were taken before 9 am. I loved laying by the pool. Something I never thought I'd like.

I'm hoping to start my friends quilts this weekend and work on a few other things to share. Maybe even go on a photo taking adventure. I really want to participate in a few card sketch challenges this weekend to, but we'll see.

Do you have any files you'd like me to try and make? Let me know.

Until later... Have a great day!

Nap Time...

• I finally had a chance to cut this file out. Can you tell I have dogs. They are both always sleeping so this will look great on their pages. You can also cut out just the dog house without the words if you want to. I couldn't find the original font I used (I must have deleted it when I cleaned out the folder) so I had to find a new one. But this one is cute, kind of whimsical!

I also found a cute counter today on someone's blog and thought it would be cute to install. I'm computer challenged so it took me a while. I was surprised to see it move. How exciting!!!

Is there anything else you would like? I'm willing to try and make it....

I'm off to work on my PJ bottoms for a bit. I was serious about finishing those up this week...

Until later...

Fonts why so many??

Fonts... Why do I have so many? I spent yesterday looking at them and deleting the ones I thought looked the same. I even put them in folders by there first letter. So they would be easier to look at in my The Font Thing program. It was still a pain.. And I still need to go in and organize them into collections. :( I'm petty sure that wouldn't be that fun.. ) But I love them. Then I need to backup my new digital files and organize them in there program so I can find them.... Who am I kidding it's not happening today!!!

I also had time to work on this cute file I

made for a swap last month. I might learn how to use this program yet. But I love my screen capture program it was very helpful.

Oh and I got a chance to watch The Closer this weekend it was very good. I love Brenda the main character!! She's awesome. I added the rest of the series to my Netflix list. Any thing else you like to watch? I'm up for some more ideas.

So have a great day!!

My Favorite...

T.V. Show is CSI! This is the one show I missed when I decided to turn our cable off.. But I have watched all the episodes out on DVD. And can't wait to see last season. I've tried watching the Miami version and it's just not the same for me. I guess it just about the people they have playing the character's. I just love that Gill (William Petersen).. He's just to cute!

A new one I discovered while browsing Netflix is The Medium. I just can't and imagine going though all that.. Poor Allison (Patricia Arquette), but even more so for her poor husband Joe (Jake Weber)! He hardly ever gets any sleep.

And then there's NCIS. It has some really cool character's too. But what will we do with out Jethro (Mark Harmon)?? He'll be back. And I love that Abby (Pauley Perrette) she always has the greatest outfits!! I'm sure I'll discover a few new ones this year. I added The Closer to my Netflix list to check out... Thanks Shae!

I made this cute file to include in my About Me Album.. I think everyone should have one of those. Other wise how will people know anything about you. I'm usually the one taking the pictures, so I don't have that many of me. But this is a topic that I could include about myself with pictures of my favorite shows!

Enjoy your day.. Until later!

Why TV??

When I got home from work today my husband and I watched a couple of episodes of the Gilmore Girls. I really like that show. It has some real life stuff on it. I can see it happening. We are limited on what we watch. About 3 years ago I turned our TV off!! My husband watched a little to much CNN. And I decided I only watched it a couple of nights a week so why we're we paying all this money for it. TV is expensive! So now we have NETFLIX . I really like it you can pick what ever plan you think you might use and keep the movies as long as you want them. You can even change plans and it's easy. So my question to you is what do you watch? I need to add some new shows to my list.



I also had time to work on my waterfall file. To get the little cracks in the rock a different color I just stuck some paper behide the bigger pieces and then trimmed it off. I even found some paper with clouds to make the sky piece. Now I just have to make the scrapbook page.


I've had a few people get the Dog House Album. I'd love to see them when they are done. Oh and Comments... I would Love to get some of those!!


See you tomorrow.

Dog House Album

A friend at work has a friend who's dog passed away. Well she was commenting about how she would like to make her an album. So this is what I came up with. I didn't put it together for her just made up the front and back and cut out some inside pages. That way she can decorate it any way she wants and attach it together. I even made it the color of my house. I couldn't resist. I think it's cute. I'm going to make one for myself too. Then maybe I'll be able to try out one of those cute slide show things I see on everybody's blog!














I'm currently working on a waterfall design to use with my pictures from Saturdays driving aventure. Hopefully I'll finish that up tomorrow and get it cut so I can share that. I should probably also do up some cute embellishments for my dog house album too. There just isn't enough time in the day.

Until next time...
