Scraggin’ (scrappin + bloggin)

Lately I’ve been looking for more inspiration for my scrapbooking and I bet y’all will never guess where I found it. Yep, on some blogs. I really had no scope of how many wonderful ideas are out there until recently. So, in the interest of making sure the ideas keep flowing, I have started a…

Who Knew?

May 22, 2008 by Elaine

I know several of us “Mommy Bloggers” (that’s right people – we are quite a group!) have expressed that we had no idea when we began blogging what it would turn into and what it would mean in our lives. I have made so many friends, that for the most part I have not met…

Come Join the Party!

May 10, 2008 by Elaine

Carolyn is hosting a little scrapboookin’ party over at her place (with prizes!!) and because that is my favorite non-computer related hobby, I thought I would join in. Mind you I don’t do as much as I should in that department (ahem) due to another time-consuming very computer related “hobby” that I have taken up,…

So Saturday night I met up with some DFW area bloggers. It was really cool to meet some other ladies that live in the area and also are addicted to like blogging. We talked about all kinds of things, some blog related and some not. I learned that there is a new addiction out there…

Lucky Linky Love

March 17, 2008 by Elaine

There isn’t a lick of Irish in me, but aren’t we all a little Irish on Saint Paddy’s Day? If you are not wearing your green consider yourself web-pinched. I haven’t put mine on either so you can give me a little one too. Ouch! There’s another party going on in bloggy land for the…
