Help yourself fulfill your “scrapbook more” resolution…

Have you checked out the offerings at Get It Scrapped lately? There are some seriously great classes that are coming up (coughcough including Art Journaling 102 in February coughcough). The Sense and Sensibility Scrapbooking Symposium just started…and since I was an English major, I find the whole concept clever and oh so "Jane." The symposium consists of 3 classes, each designed to help you incorporate humor, details from the culture around you, and your own understanding of what your life means onto scrapbook pages.

To celebrate 2009, I'm giving away a full symposium pass to all 3 Sense & Sensibility classes–it's a $45 value! Just post a comment & I'll draw for the prize on Friday evening. Sound good?

Happy scrapping!

So, my hard drive was doing the click of death…

and basically it's broken, dead, kaput, and irrecoverable unless we're willing to fork out about $1000 for the guys in the white suits & face masks to fix it in "clean room environment." And like a dork, I hadn't backed up since early May…so yes, my Italy pics are toast, along with all my email contacts, music, etc. I'm in mourning…boo hoo.

So…that means if I used to have your email address or blog bookmarked, I don't any more. Please, please, email me again so I can build up my contact list! And Lisa M from Barcelona, please email me!

Off to wallow in my sorrow, or maybe to sell the kids' furniture to pay for data recovery…
