She’s out of the ICU!

5 weeks later I finally have my very own computer back!  I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of hair I’ve pulled out and how much I’ve missed out on in 5 weeks.  It’s not just the internet I missed, I missed my pictures, I missed my digital cutter (a ton!), I missed coupons, I missed word documents and recipes- even the calculator was missed.  The first thing I did was play a game of solitaire, because I could!

While I was away I made a bunch of stuff so I’ll show it off little bit by little bit.  I need to take a bunch of pictures now that my camera is finally unloaded but I do have some pictures of journaling pads I made a couple weeks ago.  I needed 12 journals for 8-11 year olds and wanted something cheap and easy.

My awesome sister in-law gave me stack of plain chipboard so I just folded them up and glued a paper pad to the inside and added a matching pen.  Simple little things but they made me happy.  I don’t know what it is about the cardboard look and the bright papers but I love it and the kids did to.  At least they didn’t deface them so I think they liked them enough not to.

I’m off to take a massive amount of pictures and finish a tutorial or two.  Good things are coming!  Have a fantastic Monday.

  3. I fear my dear computer will be heading to the ER soon...it's a frightening feeling.

    Where did your sister get the chipboard? I've run across a few projects that ask for it. Do tell. :)

  4. These journals are SO neat - I love this idea!

    Happy to "see" you back! I can only IMAGINE how frustrated you were. I don't consider myself too technology dependent until I'm denied computer access for a few minutes. lol
