2 Peas Thursday Blogger Challenge 1.18.07

-
Today, although late I am posting my challenge to the latest 2 Peas Thursday Challenge which is to list your favourite musical artists from 1 thru 10. Hmm now this one is tricky and probably tells you more about me than I ever wanted you to know but here goes:

1. Billy Joel (He's just the greatest story teller and I can sing along to his stuff)
2. Pink (This girl has attitude and spunk and I love her message)
3. The Veronicas (Two Aussie Girls whose songs get stuck in your head)
4. The Dixie Chicks (I love their melodies, lyrics and most of all their harmony)
5. The Beach Boys (Actually hubbie is a big fan, I just hear them so much that I now love them too)
6. Harry Connick Jr (Got hooked on him cause I love his style of singing)
7. The Beatles (Classics, I grew up with these guys as my mum was a fan)
8. Wayne Newton (I have now inherited his "Summer Wind" album which my mum and I used to sing and dance to this all the time. I attended a concert he had here last year in tribute to my mum and I know she was there with me... apart from long suffering hubby who actually came with me in the flesh, as it were)
9. Frank Sinatra (Aah Blue Eyes.... well this is another one my mum turned me on to)
10. Chris Isaak (Love his songs, love his cheeky attitude!)

So there is it. Deduce what you will about my personality from that list.... And yes I already know I'm a dag!

Cardstock only Layouts

-

After looking at the cost of a layout I'm going to challenge myself to do some cardstock only layouts (not for my wedding though). Do you think you could manage it? Well I'm not sure but I'm gonna give it a go. But it does get a little ridiculous the costs, con't you think? So I'm going to challenge myself to do a layout using cardstock and patterned paper only! Of course not having a cricuit or sizzix or anything this will mean hand cutting my title....... painstaking... BUT I think it'll be a challenge artistically too. These layouts were done by Deb of Toowoomba and you can see how she's used her paper and cardstock to acentuate her photo's theme.... I especially love the dolphin! When I went to a scrapbook evening recently one of the ladies did a fabulous layout using paper piecing. She made Dora the Explorer layous and her 'dora' was fantastic. I don't think I have that much patience but punching and tearing are right up my alley. Bu...

Coffee Mugs are Finished

Here are the digi scrapped coffee mugs I told you about a few posts back. They're back from the "printer". These were really easy to do. I first created my document that I was digi scrapping and I made the size of the document 4" x 6'" (a standard photo). I then decorated that page using my digital scrapbooking papers and embellishments and finally added the photos. I then went to my local photo lab and uploaded these images to their software and chose to have them printed on mugs. (I chose the stretch option which stretches the image around the mug. So then I had to resize the image to get all my decorations on the mug). And here they are! It only took them a week to print them! So if you're thinking of doing this for a christmas present I think you may just get it back in time...... but check with your photo lab to make sure they could get it back to you before Christmas. I'm happy with the result..... hope the recipients will be too?

Digiscrap a PhotoBook when on special!

-

Have you ever wondered what to do with all that beautiful digitally scrapbooked work? Well you could print a photo book. I save all my pages up and then when there's a special on (Like the recent $9.95 for a 19 page book at Big W) I go in and get them printed. This way I have a hard copy of my work to show people and I get the pages printed very cheaply... that's around 52 cents per page. Just remember though the specials are more commonly done for the smaller books 8 x 8 etc. So when doing your layouts keep that in mind.
