Doin' it the Wright Way

Hey there blog readers! I know, I know, I was supposed to be posting more regularly ... I'm sorry. But my garage sale is done, so that means I should have more time to post, right? The reason I am posting today is for that Nebraska Learns class I talked about at the beginning of the month. Nothing like procrastinating - today is the last day I can complete it! ;) I am actually really enjoying this first "assignment." Our assignment was to play with photo editing sites. For my scrapbooking friends out there, I'm thinking this could do wonders for your already wonderful pages! As I was working on my second picture, I had an idea. There are many pictures - like that particular one - that I'd like to include in my scrapbook, but can't make myself create a whole page for a picture of a flower ... but can you imagine putting this photo of the flower on it? I can. How much cooler would that make the page? I could talk about where I was and why I took the pictu

I am signing up for the Nebraska Learns 2.0 online learning program. To complete it, I will be posting on my blog once a month about different activities I am completing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. The program was designed for people connected with libraries to participate in, but if you are interested, you can still participate. Find out more information by visiting http://nelearns.blogspot.com/ The goal of the program is to encourage participants to experiment with and learn about the new and emerging technologies that are reshaping the way people, society and libraries access information and communicate with each other. I am very excited to participate in this program. The first project is about playing with online photo editing sites! I can't wait to learn new things that I know I will be able to make use of especially in my scrapbooking! The prerequisite for enrolling in the course was to watch a short presentation about the 7 1/2 Habits of

hey there blog readers! i know i've said it before, but time has gotten away from me and this blog was definitely put on the back burner. so, i apologize if there were any of you who read it faithfully and was disappointed when i stopped posting. after the next few weeks, i'm hoping things will slow back down so i will make it a point to post on here more regularly again. as of Sept. 1, the CTMH new idea book went live. i'm quite excited as there are some very cool new products and some changes happening in CTMH that i am sure is going to take the company in a crazy, new direction. i love the new paper packs. two of them are some of the most beautiful paper packs (IMO) that i have seen from the company, and i've definitely loved some of the previous paper packs. i am having a new catty bash next week to show off all the new products! if you're interested and did not already get an invitation from me, it's because i don't have your contact info or don&#

   Hey there blog readers! I'm so sorry I've been so lax about posting to my blog lately - it's been a crazy month! There has been a trip to Chicago for Pampered Chef national conference - it was amazing! Also in there was the Close to My Heart national conference, which I didn't attend, but I've still got the excitement brewing from all the new product and changes! And a booth for the local Lone Tree Days celebration over the Fourth of July, along with a cousin's Pampered Chef bridal shower ... and more! So, anyway, sorry I didn't post. I had lots of good intentions; and I even got some projects done, but not sure what happened to all my time.    I plan on finding some of those pictures and uploading them soon. Also, I plan on heading downstairs to scrapbook soon - so maybe I'll have some of those pictures to share.    I'm not supposed to share any of the new products before the catalog goes live to customers, but if you contact me, I might give y
