Technique Thursday

Each Thursday Im going to post a technique. It may be one thats been around for a long time to show new scrapbookers or it may be new and something the seasoned scrapper wants to try.

This week our technique is Waterfall Folding for traditional scrapbooking and cardmaking. Heres a few links to help you try out this technique.

Scrapping Tragedies - 9/11

Most are not aware the Scrapbookers Workshop is a place for everyone. Our top attraction is digital scrapbooking but are you aware that we also have things for traditional scrapbookers, altered arts, cardmakers and stampers? Therefore this blog will also cover all of these areas.
With yesterday being the anniversary of September 11th I wanted to gather up a few ideas Ive found from around the web to help you tell your story if you havent already. If you have you may find something you want to add.

Well I had the largest list of things for you all typed up and ready to go. All I had to do was stick in the images. Stupid me never drafted the entry and flock crashed. I have lost the entire list.

More Freebies!

Well once again Im late. I know its pathetic, I am trying though. My kids havent been feeling up to par this week and today seemed to be one of their worst days. I have also been trying to get little things done around the house. Hubby and I are going out with some friends tonight and I wanted to make sure the sitter could easily find everything she needed.

First though I wanted to point out that there is a fantastic color challenge going on at The Digi Shoppe. Im not usually big on color challenges but this one has great colors especially for girls. And you get a really cool freebie from Bren Boone if you make a layout and post it to their gallery!

A Meltdown!

Well after working for hours on todays list my computer crashed. I lost all the information I had. There were some great freebies on that list too. So to make it up to you I will be posting tomorrow the list for wednesday along with the list for today and some other freebies Ive found in my search that are still valid. Tomorrow, consider it double up wednesday! Im so sorry being new to all this isnt helping keep things running smoothly! I promise as each day goes by though I will be getting better if you can just stick it out with me.

Oopsie Daisy!

I havent been very 'up to date' the past couple days. I apologize, family matters have really gotten in the way this weekend of my freebie hunts. Hopefully though Im back up to full speed and I'll have some great stuff for you this weekend.
I am still looking for ways to make this blog more efficient and easier to navigate.
More on this list is coming, I promise!
