a really big Monday follows a holiday. Doesn't it?
Call it
"Cyber-Monday". Call it
"Dani just released four new, amazing QK Exclusives". Call it
"Susan doesn't know which way is up". Call it
"tomorrow is December! - what the heck?".
But it's a doozie, that's for sure! Let's get started!
#1 - It's Finished It Friday, even though it's Monday.
I promised - so here goes! Blox 34, only ten pages this past week, but that's okay. Ten awesome pages are done, documented and preserved! Way to go ladies, even in the face of impending turkey eating, you still managed to crank out a few pages! CONGRATS!
Super job everyone - thanks for participating last week and thanks, as always, for sharing with us! I love that you like sharing your pages with your fellow blog-readers. And I'm flattered that you enjoy my
Blox enough to include them in your scrapbooks. Thank you!

Scrapy Land Starting Blox #35. WOW - week thirty-five! Let's finish this month with a bang scrappers...I dare you!
You know how I like gettin' several pictures on a page, so here's a take with three that are similarly sized. Two are 3.5"x 5" and one is a bit larger at 4"x 6". Three spots of embellies or die-cuts and three areas for pieces of borders. Don't have a border that fits with your theme? Make a border by lining up small die-cuts and making your own border element!
Here is my take on this
Blox...
I used the
QK Arrows border die, and actually used it to point out areas in my photos. I accented those areas with a
QK Nesting Circle and QK Nesting Flowers. Thought it worked perfectly for these photos. My title is made up of
QK Banana Split and
QK Chandelier - love these two together. I did my journaling with the
QK Journaling (round) 4x4 die. It's perfect when you have patterned paper that you want to journal on!
It's up to you - use this Blox as a jumping-off point. See what your pictures and your mood dictates! These Blox will be due to me by Tuesday, December 8th at noon, MST.
#3 - Here is a picture of my calendar for December
{keeping in mind that December doesn't start until tomorrow!}. Lots of stuff in the works, lot of events, lots to do and lots of scrappy goodness!
WOWZA - between company coming, blogs to post,
Blox to create and a Design to Team to help find - there's not going to be time for much else.
Unless you noticed the first two weeks of the month. There's surely going to be time for...#4.
#4 -
12 VQKX!
That's right - twelve videos in twelve days. It's never been done on an on-line store's blog before, so we're breaking ground. If you want to part of the fun please note the times. I've tried my best to mix it up a bit to include our European viewers, our Australian viewers, our Hawaiian viewers, our Costa Rico viewers, our Puerto Rico viewers, and our Asian viewers. Lots of time zones to take into consideration - so I hope I've accommodated everyone. At least once.
Six shows will be LIVE!, six will be recorded. They will ALL go on the blog, eventually. They will ALL be taped. They will be short, fun, holiday-ish projects...some might simply be twists of old favorites. But I will do my darndest to stick to the schedule and not tweak it unless absolutely necessary!
I will send out emails the morning of the LIVE! shows, with a run down on the topic and a supply or two you might want to have handy. That's about as prepared as I'll likely be, so know that the recorded shows you can watch later, to work along with.
And finally, #5 - Scrapy Land Design Team submissions are still due on Decmeber 18th. We have received almost twenty entries - which means I'm most grateful that Dani is making the final decisions. WOW-IEE!! After peeking at the entries that have already come in, my reminder is this...re-read the requirements and send in those items. Nothing more, and nothing less please. This is going to be a tough decision, and I'm dreading December 18th only because that means that waiting begins. GOOD LUCK, and for those that have already entered - THANKS!
EDITED TO ADD: Let's add in a last minuted
#6 - did you see
this FUN STUFF over at the Silhouette America site? B-L-I-N-G! Can't wait until my package arrives and I can start blinging up gifts and pages and cards and hoodies!
