{ New Desktop Screen & Digi-Calendar Class }

I didn’t scrap a thing over the weekend but I did finally update my desktop. I decided after much thought about how to keep track of deadlines and important dates each month that the place that I’d see the reminders most often is this screen. I also figure I’m in photoshop enough that it’s not too hard to change it if something comes up mid-month. For the most part though it’s for the type of dates that I’ll know before the month even begins and the same with the major to-do’s or deadlines. Plus it’s always fun to have something inspiring every time I boot up the computer. So here’s the October one…

And you may notice I have a class listed at DeBoer Cafe on the 28th. I’ll be sending out emails to a few people who stopped by our booth at the craft show with more information but I thought it would be fun to do a calendar class for the first one. It’s a great introduction into digital scrapbooking with all the calendar templates available that make it so much easier and the timing should be perfect to give people almost 2 months to complete the calendars to give as gifts for Christmas. SO, if you’re in the area and interested in the class let me know and I’ll get you more information. AND, if you’re reading this and you have one of those great calendar templates I’d LOVE to compile a little list of links for people to go to during or after the class to purchase the calendar kit of their choice. I hope to create some basic calendar grids to have available free to the class but I’d like to offer as many options as I can. I have a few in mind already but I know there are lots more out there so feel free to post any links in the comments here or email me. :)

Kay, gotta do some sewing again tonight. Picked up some corduroy fabric on sale today and I’m dying to try it as lining for some new bags. I’ve also been working on some crocheted flowers – back a little later with some pics – but those will be showing up on some of the new designs as well. Keep an eye on the boutique site for some new bags tonight or tomorrow. :)

MandaKay - Your new desktop is great!!!! OK - so maybe if you do a super cute purse in the corduroy I would like that - then I can have one yet before Chicago. I am so indecisive so maybe you just do one that you think is me. I like it medium size with at least a snap closure! Talk to ya soon - gotta figure out the train thing. October 10, 2006 - 6:55 am

Helen - Your desktop inspired me to clean mine up NOW! That new purse with the corduroy sounds awesome! I'd love one but I'm as bad as Manda about trying to make a desision on it... so whenever you have time.. just let me know you have one and I'll paypal ya ;) October 10, 2006 - 4:14 pm

Kellie (joelsgirl) - Hey Shawn, I'm still loving my bag, but I'm starting to think I have enough saved up for a new one...just don't tell my husband! Your class sounds fun; I wish I was in your area, but fortunately I'm down here in the south where it's still in the 80's, praise the Lord! Janet Phillips has some fun templates at The Digi Shoppe: http://www.thedigishoppe.com/shop/product.php?productid=16574&cat=0&page=1 Have fun at your class! October 17, 2006 - 7:42 am

Kimmy - Hi Shawn - that looks great. Your site is getting a little old (I know that you've been busy). That is why I hope this is the best place to ask you to call me at work before 2 today. Talk to ya soon! October 27, 2006 - 10:45 am
