An invitation

Hi...I invite you to check out my other blog, a new one, for all things creative, not just online challenges.

I hope to use the blog to post all kinds of creative ideas like photography, art, lovelies for the home, etc.

As always, I appreciate you stopping by!

Have a great week :)

February edition of '12 of 12'

I spot colored most of the pictures and what I couldn't spot color, I just made the pictures b&w (except for the clock & heart-shaped popcorn shrimp). :)

Thanks for stopping by for a peek!

Happy Valentine's Day

Check your labels...a friendly consumer tip :D

This isn't even scrapbook/photography-related...unless those subjects give you headaches. ;) Did you know....Excedrin & Excedrin Migraine have the exact same ingredients in them? I've known this for a while, but when I was buying some Excedrin yesterday (well, Target brand) I thought "I have to share this with others". I used to buy Excedrin AND Excedrin Migraine. One day I got looking at the ingredients on the labels of both boxes and took them to the pharmacy where I asked the pharmacist if I was seeing things or did these two products, labeled for different kinds of pain, actually have the same ingredients? Yes, they do! So if you're an Excedrin/Excedrin Migraine user, just buy whichever is less expensive because they're the exact same thing. :) (Interestingly, one is usually a little more or little less expensive than the other.) I can't believe the Excedrin company does that. Oh, and Target does it too, markets them, prices them, as two different products.

May you have a stress-and-headache free day! :)

December Daily Album - update #3

It's finished! Yay! Here's a group pic of all the pages. I realize they're difficult to see. I'll try to post them individually when I have more time. It sure changed over the course of making it from how I originally planned it out.

Thanks for stopping by - have a great day!
