I am Really Stepping Out of the Box!!
Don't tell me you can't teach an old dog new tricks!! I just won't believe a word of it! Just take a look at the two scrapbook pages I finished today!
One is using the 6 X 12 page and the other is round...you heard me...ROUND. Now if that isn't out of the box..what is?
The 6 X 12 was done due to a challenge from a friend..she said if I did the 6 X 12...she would do a digital scrapbook page....You know who you are...so I guess you'd better get busy!! :)
Leave a comment and let me know what you think about using the two different formats for scrapbooking pages. I'd love to hear your comments and thoughts!!

I Need Some Organizational Help!!
OK...so I am a member of SEVERAL scrapbooking boards. All of which I really adore and wouldn't dream of leaving any one of them. I give them all equal time...many times a day!
Here is my problem! I get involved in challenges and swaps that I really want to be involved in. Now don't get me wrong....I don't get involved with every swap & challenge on every board that I frequent. I do pick & choose! The problem is...I have this fear of forgetting something or someone due to the many I might have going on a one time.
I really enjoy the swaps & the challenges and I don't want to give them up! Someone has to have an idea of how I can solve my problem!
Here's a challenge for you: Leave me a comment with a way to get more organized with my challenges & swaps. On June 20...I will draw a name from all the comments and RAK that person!!

I've Been Tagged - 7 Things......
So here are 7 random facts/habits about me:
1. I am currently in grad school. I know at my age you would think I would be finished!
2. I have used rub-ons a total of one (1) time on a layout! It was so difficult for me...I haven't tried again!
3. I have never been diagnosed, but I am convinced I am OCD...because everything must be done a certain way!! I can't help it! I guess it could just be old age! Except....I'm not old!!!!!! :)
4. I have 2 sons, both are in the military and are state side right now. One of them will be moving to Germany in October.
5. I planted 100 more daylily seeds this weekend! You can never have too many flowers....right!!
6. I want to learn to scrap digitally. I don't know why.....I just do! It's a challenge, I guess!!
7. I worked as a nurse for 10 years, then quit & went back to school to get my teaching certificate. I wanted to teach all my life!! So, I did it!!!

My Very First TOOT!!
I have been scrapping for so long...since about the early 1990's. Until recently, I had never submitted any of my pages or other paper crafts to any type of contest, or anything else that would result in any type of publication.
Well, a couple months ago, I decided to submit a couple of my pages to a contest on one of the scrapbooking sites that I am a regular. I didn't win.....but, that began this saga!
I have since submitted to several contests, several print publications (no word yet!), as well as to one online magazine. I am a regular on this magazines forum, so I felt comfortable doing this. Well....I am (or rather my page) is in the June publication!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!
Here is a link...go visit my page. Look over the mag. It is a really super publication put together by a fantastic group of people!
