SIGNS you are a SCRAP ADDICT {4sale}{freebie}

:
:
After recently purchasing a 500G external HD, I'm finally taking the time to unzip all the files I've downloaded over these last 4-5 months. OK, I wasn't prepared to find close to 2,000 freebie, prize & purchased files to open!!!! They sure add up don't they?! No wonder my laptop was sluggish and burping bytes.

Sometimes I open up long-ago downloaded zip file and go "what in the world was I thinking, these are really ugly and I will NEVER use these" !?

Then I find like 1/10 of them are corrupted. ARGH! Well, I did some detective work and found most of the blogs and sites of those errant files. Some still have the freebies valid (kudos to those of you who don't expire freebies!). Others expired, blogs disappeared, and "downloads-a-day" were of course no longer available. I took the bold step of contacting quite a few of you designers out there and politely asked if I could pretty please have the file again, or get the long-misplaced passwords. I gotta say, you gals are for the most part very nice & magnaminous---almost all provided me with new download files or allowances in the stores. Renews one's faith in scrapkind & womankind! THANK YOU!

Somtimes I download an entire 25 piece kit just because I like one tiny element.

But I still continue to open the 18 browser tabs every day to check on that day's new Scrap Riches offered. If it's nearing 11pm and I'm still out, I start gettng the sweats, worried that I may not make it back in time to get all the freebies on the Daily Download sites. Sometimes I come home exhausted but stay up bleary-eyed so I can download zip after rar after zip.

I try to weed out pieces of kits I don't like or will never use. It's just so hard though to bring myself to delete them, as I suddenly wonder if I may one day get a dog, or date a man who fishes...

The worst is when you have a planned trip out of town. Thanks to my new cellphone (T Mobile Dash) I have free internet and just plug my cellphone into my laptop USB and ---voila!--- free modem access on my cell's broadband connection. Thank god! Can you imagine the withdrawal I would go through otherwise? Just the thought of the shakes, sweating, headaches and vomitting is enough to make me otherwise cancel my trips! In fact, I have been depressed for over a month thinking I missed downloading the incredible free In Vogue Kit given out at Scrap Artist while I was out of town that weekend. I've been angry (but not as angry as over the theft of my design---see below). I've been sulking around. I've been kicking myself. Then whilst (love that word) unzipping a batch of files yesterday (I've been unzipping daily for over a week now) I discover the In Vogue downloads just loitering around the middle of the dialog window in my zip directory. The nerve of them!--- letting me be all upset over them like that for so long! My heart actually skipped a few beats.

I was beaming to no one but myself (well, and my cat Meero). Well I've waxed poetic enough over this Addiction of mine. I shouldn't waste any more time here as I still have to finish downloading today's bounty and checking the numerous freebie listing sites in the US, France, Germany, and assorted other countries. I just want to say Thanks to all of you who are my dealers, pimping your goods, or else I would not be able to get my daily fix sufficient to feed my scrap addiction.

Making an element from scratch

Well I finally created my first element totally from scratch. Necessity is the mother of invention! I was making a chat challenge LO over at scrapbookgraphics.com and needed a JUKEBOX LABEL as the finishing touch. So......voila!

$1.50$0.99 ON SALE!
PURCHASE USING PAYPAL

I used these JUKEBOX LABELS in the LO below, which was a work of love and tribute to my stepmom, Peggy, the lead singer of The Angels [it's a double page].

My entire Map Set is now available for sale as a set, or individually.

It took a while to figure out the whole paypal shopping cart thing, so I'm glad to finally be able to post these for sale. For your kind patience, I will post another {freebie} from the Map Frames!! Check back later this week....

Preview of first kit

I've been working diligently on this new map kit (my 1st kit) and it's a strain removing all those stray pixels {phew!}. It is created entirely from antique maps. Here's the preview of it below and I will be posting a freebie in the next 2 days. I now have to figure out how I want to sell this kit.

The weather finally broke and we actually had above-freezing temps. Gave me a chance to check out the winter ravage. I think I lost my pond fish this winter season. I cut down all the dead garden plant growth, prepping for the green to appear!

I'm so sick of all the trash celeb news about Anna Nicole Smith, Britney Spears, and all the rest. As far as I can tell it's only the reporters that are truly interested in this crap!

I went to see Spamalot at The Hippodrome Theatre. I have to admit that I was disappointed. Being the huge Monty Python fan that I am, the skits seemed a bit warmed over and all too predictable, although they might have been aided had the acting been better. I really am sad that I didn't make it to NYC to see the stellar Broadway cast including Tim Curry and Hank Azaria. I could really see genius-comedian-cross dresser Eddie Izzard in one of the title roles---possibly as King Arthur, and I think he would outshine them all! The sets were intriguing and I did laugh to the point of crying, but shortly after could not remember what it was exactly I laughed at. Not a good sign.

Please leave me feedback on these previews as it will help me decide which freebie to post!
