Journaling Contest

Christine (Mama's Talking About Everything) is offering a great prize on her blog. Check out her rules. The basics are to take a previous layout without journaling and add some journaling to it. So, you ask, why is this such a big deal?? Two reasons.....1.....Christine made a great point about how lots of us just don't journal enough and you might only see half the story in the page. The rest could be told in the journaling.....2....she is offering a free copy of ACDSee 2009 Photo Manager (a $50 value...WOW!)....so dig around in those old layouts you have and add some journaling. Enjoy!!!

Oh, and posted is a layout I just completed for the Tuesday Template challenge on Scrap Matters. I used the kit Landon by Golden Girls, and the template was created by Jeni Hopewell for the challenge.

Fave You Tube Video, Latest Speed Scrap

The lastest and possibly the most favorite video on You Tube is "Star Wars" - an a capella tribute to John Williams". Corey Vidal created this by splitting the screen and singing all 4 parts. His voice is awesome and he does a great job. You kinda have to know your Star Wars since he goes thru all the films, but he does it so entertaining-ly (is that a word?) I've watched it several times and it will be worth watching several more. You see little things throughout. He also "annotated" the video (little boxed pop up) so you can know what movie the tune he is currently singing is from. Well worth the 4 minutes and change!!!

Listen to Corey Vidal here.

*****EDIT***** Just went to Moosebutter.com. Guess what..they did the songs....Vidal is just doing the Milli Vanilli thing (lip synching). But it's still a great video!! Uh...Moosebutter does the singing!!

And above is my latest speed scrap I completed (every Wednesday on Scrap Matters, plus there will be one this Friday....check it out!). I just about pulled my hair out trying to save it. I would put jpg....my computer couldn't read it...got a blank page. I put jpg again....flipped to PSE file. Jeepers! Took me 20 minutes to save it! But here it is.

VOTE VOTE VOTE

Hey folks. the USA has a democracy that gives us the privilege to vote for who we want to lead us. Wow! That is just unbelievable...especially when you look at all the other countries that don't have that chance! Get out and vote today! Vote how you feel (of course) but also keep in mind that that person and/or his vice-president will lead the country for the next 4 years. So vote not just with your heart but with your head. Nuff said.

Now onto the scrapping. Earlier I said I completed the Saturday Night Special challenge on Scrap Matters that was to include negative space. So here is my page. Hope you like it. Credits are :
