Ok, I got my cute friend Lacey all set up with her NEW blog look! And she is so excited… here is a peek!
You should go check her blog out.. she just re-did her scrapbook room and it totally ROCKS! Feeling jealous of her organization!! Because … ok, and this is totally embarrassing.. but true…want to see what my work station looks like right now?
Do you see how I have this HUGE workstation, and notice how I have worked myself into a tiny corner of this thing! ...(i better take a photo of it clean before i go to bed!!) I have been creating up a storm, and just having a blast…but I have been doing ‘grazing-like’ scrapbooking… where I can’t really dedicate myself to the project, I just have to wander over… do this or that, and then carry on with my referee job. Eric has been out of town… so it’s double duty. I hate it when he is gone.
What have I been working on, you ask?
So excited to share! Capri and Connor are loving this book, and fascinated with photos of themselves as babies! So cute…Capri has discovered tutus and ballerina costumes…she has turned into a magical fairy princess ballerina. It’s fantastic! It’s turned into this massive project that I am so totally loving.
Here is a little preview…it’s a project that we (Rhonna, Janet and I) have created for our first-ever houseof3.com House Warming Party! (just wait until you see their beautiful books...) This weekend, we’ll be posting a whole bunch of new products that tie in with this amazing project…you will be able to download, print and create just like that! We’ll have some videos, step by step tutorials, technique tips and how-to’s … the works. Rhonna, Janet and I have each created our own versions of this House Warming Book… the concept is: ‘What makes your house a HOME!’… it’s a tribute to what IS under your roof!
Have you ever thought about that? what makes YOUR house… a HOME? It’s really different for everyone. I will be talking about it in a video clip that will be available to view Sat and Sunday. We will be making the downloadable product available on FRIDAY (Feb. 27th) and you will be able to get a jump on things by printing stuff out before you see our finished books… or you can wait, and on Sat… you’ll see inside every nook and cranny of our creations.
IMPORTANT: you DO NOT HAVE to be a ‘digital’ scrapbooker to participate…({NOTE}… we have everything bundled up for those digi scrappers out there as well!) these files are simply-download and print. You’ll need some cardstock, acetate (specific for your type of printer; probably ink jet), and everything else in your STASH! And the day wouldn’t be complete without some giveaways, and prizes… so check it out. I’ll be posting links and making sure that you don’t miss a thing over the weekend! So stay tuned! Of course we have a fab freebie that will be available as well!
ALSO tomorrow, I will be selecting someone with the House Warming background on their blog to win the WHOLE house warming package…tons of downloadable happiness! So if you haven’t sent me a link, please do so here in my comments!
If you have a blinkie, you will also be in the hat for some winning! So make sure that you post a link to your blog as well!
Now, speaking of free stuff.. and WINNERS:
I wanted to CONGRATULATE Wendy… on the Ultimate Scrapbook Cruise, she WON two spots to Creative Escape 2009! She is SO LUCKY! The Lottery for CE will be drawn on March 15th, and you will be notified thereafter… so if you have yet to sign up… there is still a couple weeks!
I played my first tennis match of the SPRING season this morning… my partner Lisa and I played a girl from Norway and one from the UK. We were so evenly matched… it took us 2 ½ hours to play 3 matches…and guess what !? we WON! I am just learning the ropes of tennis as I go, but it’s SO MUCH FUN! my legs are so tired. I need to get back in shape…ahh, it even felt a little like SPRING today! {smile} it’s FRIDAY here in BJ, and the best part of that.. in addition to the fact that American Idol is on again tonight, and I am just ordering PIZZA for dinner… I don’t have to pack school lunch for 2 days! I hate packing lunches. Have a wonderful, fabulous FRIDAY.. and we’ll see you at House of 3 this weekend!
Here is the link to my blog - I have the banner and background and the blinkie. Hope I get lucky and thank you for the wonderful freebie!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I cannot Thank YOU enough for all of the inspiration and motivation you've given me to create, explore the digi world, and bring back the desire to blog and document this journey. I hope you'll take a peek, as my blog is (as of today, thanks to Houseof3.com) officially back up and running.
I have my reservation in for the House Warming. I've booked the entire weekend! :) Can't wait to "see" everyone there!
So, I'm off to finish up and post my Valentine Book (hopefully this evening-sneak peeks are on my blog), purchase and print all of my goodies for the House Warming event...oh, and I think I'll run and get another printer cartridge...a girl cannot afford to run outta ink this weekend, no way!
Yes, I admit it... I'm such a "Groupie/Cyber Stalker" ! Thank you for all you do to inspire us with your talent and energy... YOU ROCK!!!
MMMMWAH!!!

I guess I need to start a blog. Have really enjoyed yours, Heidi. What a cute pic of your kids looking at the book. Congrats and best wishes on new Hof3 venture! Glad you added 'f' to abbreviation cause I know you aren't 3 Ho's. LOL! Could be Hall of Fame3, but we know who you all are and love you!!! Wish I had a better computer to fully enjoy all your talent. I tried out your freebies. Now, I'll have to purchase. Thank You for all you do.
