Thoughts on my 200th post
I made it to Post #200! Yay!
To celebrate this blogging milestone, I’m offering a Quickpage freebie for my digital scrapbooking readers 🙂 For a long time now I have thought about my place in the digital scrapbooking community. I am a silent member, but one of the biggest stalkers of my favorite designers, hehe. For what seems like a long time now, I’ve been spending a lot of time scouring the web with freebies, and filling up my hard drive and EHD with oodles and oodles of supplies. The sad thing about that habit, is that there are a lot of amazing kits that I have not gotten to use because they are still in their zipped state! Haha.Â
I am still slowly recovering from the download and stash bug and moving on to the actual unzipping and utilizing part of the addiction – that’s the good news 🙂
I realized earlier on that I lack the vision that great designers have so I will probably never create kits or elements to give back to the community. I am not sure that I will make a very good part of a Creative Team because I don’t scrap layouts regularly. So I am quite happy being a fan and a sometimes paying consumer 🙂
But every once in a while, I make a layout that I am super happy about, and that looks to me like others may like it too. A layout that can be used for different purposes.
The print size for this QP is very small though – about 3 inches by 2.5 inches. That’s because of the size of my mini album. It’s display size is quite large though so it is best for web layouts but just test it out for your own printing if you’d like.
Anyway, I hope you like it and don’t forget to leave me a comment if you download!
The credits for everything I used on this QP are found here, and I have also obtained permission from the designers to give this QP away. I have not, however, received any response from ButterflyHollowDesigns and AlexaB. If any of you know them, please let them know about this. If they object to my giving it away, I will gladly take it down.Â
I am truly hoping that this won’t be my first and last freebie offering on this blog. But that all depends on inspiration. 🙂
It’s been a good week so far. I have met my new boss and she seems real nice and those that I’ve asked have nothing but good to speak of her. I am looking forward to working with her. It’s still training for me, and I really have to get used to my new product – I know that will be my biggest challenge. It’s quite easy, but since I don’t use it, it is a little strange to me. I’d love to go into details, but can’t.
Oh, I also added my Bravenet guestbook and figured out how to embed it properly within this blog. Yay me! Check it out through the Guestbook link up top.
Anyway, thanks for stopping by 🙂

Congrats to you on your milestone!
What program do you use for your scrap booking? I am just getting into it and am not sure what to use that isn’t going to break the bank.

Thank you 🙂
I use Corel’s PaintShopPro X. I received a link to a free download before but I can’t find it just now. Don’t worry, I’ll look for it and pass it along when it’s found. Glad you’ve decided to try out digital scrapbooking!
