  1. I am trying to catch up on a few Project Life pages as I will be away from the computer from Wednesday next week until the following Monday as Ken and I head off on a short cruise in celebration of our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Before we return home we will have a night with my daughter where we will have a family dinner out also in celebration.

      Happy Anniversary to you both and enjoy your cruise :)

  2. I am very encouraged with all the members wanting to participate in Project Life this year. I have started a thread for our chatting and questions so that the main thread does not get too congested and I miss out on seeing someone share their finished layouts. The chatting thread can be found HERE

      The response is awesome, Anne Marie and thanks for all your excitement and work! 

  3. I am very happy! Today an EHD saved from our flooded home is working  as previously it would not work. It has some older digi products with lots of Scrap Girls items.

  4. I cannot see it or it is not there.... Is there a link from the shop to the forum?

      I tried that and it only brought me to the Home page, not the Forum.

      You are right, of course. I meant to say it will bring you to the home page. But at the home page you can click on "forum"... or any other part of the site. Hope that helps!

      Opps I missed read the first post. ?

      It's a great sale!  Can't wait to see your page, Anne Marie. :) 
      And, now off to shop!  :runningdog:

  6. I encourage you all to look at the Weekly Newsletter gallery as there some wonderful pages being shared for  my challenge.   

    1. Amy D

      Amy D

      Yes - fantastically wonderful pages!

  7. I finished typing up my yearly letter to send with cards and it was a long one with all that happened in my life this year. Now to write out all the cards and address the envelopes!

      I never do that. Kudus to you and everyone who does it each year. I send messages through the internet. . . Facebook or WhatsApp, since I have family scattered all over the world.

    3. Amy D

      Amy D

      Yep, I do the same still - my mom started it ... I used to take the POV of the kids, now their adults, maybe I should take the POV of my granddog!

    4. MariJ

      MariJ

      I really love reading yearly newsletters in Christmas cards and look forward to them each year.  My friend even saves hers for me to see since I know most of the people!   Amy, I think you should take your granddog!   My sister sends photos of her dogs dressed up for christmas in her cards each year.

  8. I had been trying to comment on every entry in the Anniversary gallery but with you all being so busy with the chat challenges  it is keeping my fingers busy typing!

      This is great but there is also the members gallery to post other not specific pages you make.

    3. Amy D

      I've been posting mine in my "member's" gallery 

    4. A-M

      A-M

      @Boatlady and @Amy D  yes, I know about the members gallery but I started the thread for those who would like to share with others what they have created as not everyone goes searching in the members gallery to see what is created for non-challenges. 

  16. I hope everyone else is having as much fun as I am having with all the fun events for the Anniversary! :2468who-do-we-appreciate:

  18. I just finished my fifth and final page for the December to Remember Project. I enjoyed working with the different prompts. Thank you to the hosts of this. Now I need to do some tidying up and backing up on my computer to get ready for a new year and a new decade!

  21. I may not be around much for iNSD as we are meeting up today with daughter and family then bringing two of the children home with us for a sleep over. I should be able to attend the Build a Taco chat. So looking forward to catching up with some of you then. 

  22. I needed to make a sympathy card for my Brother-in-law whose sister died yesterday so I made sure I used something from my Scrap Girls stash to make the card. 

    1. MariJ

      MariJ

      Sorry to hear of that loss Anne Marie.  Your card is beautiful and I'm sure will be a comfort.   Thanks for sharing it.

    2. Belle

      Sorry for your loss Anne-Marie.

  23. I now have my new laptop and am busy setting it all up. Sadly the EHDs my daughter saved from my flooded home does not include my newest ones that had all my current Scrap Girl products so I will need to use mostly older items.

      So glad you are back my dear. Contact Angie, she is so kind and sweet that I'm sure she will help you.

      Happy to hear you have a new laptop. I hope you've contacted Angie about your files. She will resend any SG files that are still available. I'm glad you were able to save some things from the flood, but those kinds of losses are heartbreaking. I know a lot of people say they're just things, but there are so many memories associated with them.  All but the main house on my dad's property burned several years ago. When you're evacuating, you think you have all the important things, but even years later, we're finding some things were burned that we didn't realize were still in the guest house and shop.

      So sorry to hear that your were flooded Anne Marie, we have relatives at Keith Hall that were flooded as well.  Horrible..  Hope you are sorting things out.   Losing everything is very traumatic.  We had that experience years ago with Cyclone Tracey.. 

       

  24. In 12 hours my husband and I are flying off interstate to visit his sister and her husband and will be away 4 nights. It is not so much a holiday as the brother-in-law is dying of asbestosis. 

    1. Boatlady

      Boatlady

      So glad you can get away but sad it is for that sad reason. Enjoy what time you can spend with family. Hugs to you and safe travels.

    2. MariJ

      Sorry to hear that Anne Marie. 

  25. In a few hours I will be leaving to have Christmas Eve with my daughter and her family. Then Christmas day with my older sister and stay for two days. Following that 2 nights back in the town where we used to live to catch up with my last surviving Aunt and friends. I will not have computer access again properly until next Tuesday.  May you all have safe and happy Christmas celebrations.
