EACH PAGE PROTECTOR IN THE PHOTO ABOVE HOLDS A TWO-PAGE LAYOUT. 128 is the magic number! I created 128 12x2 pages at our four day retreat last weekend! Sorry it has taken me a few days to post this update. Been just so darn busy at work. And that is a good thing! We had a tie for the winners with the guess of 125!! My crop total of 12x12 pages done is 128! The closest guess was made by two members, both at 125. And the winners are: Sherry and ebright_fleming@..... Blogger Sherry said... I'm going to guess 125 pages. There's no way I'd ever get that many done, but I've seen how productive you can be, so I'm guessing it's going to be a really high number. Have fun, and I'll look forward to hearing how many pages you do! sherry.kishitani@........ 1:43pm ---------------------------------- ebright_fleming@..... said... I will guess 125, which I feel could be a low estimate, which is crazy, because I haven't even done that many pages for the whole year, ...

It's time for another contest! I am sooo excited! I got up at 6am today and I NEVER do that! I am a late night owl --not an early bird!! I must be excited, eh? So excited that I want to give something away again! I am headed out to go scrapping this weekend from today about 11 am to sunday about 4pm. Yep, that's right! I will be leaving the hubster home and scrappin' for FOUR whole days on my own 12x12 family page projects. Not cards, not gifts--just pages! I don't have to work at the retreat which is a plus for productivity. I have been organizing myself and my supplies all week! How many pages do you think I will get done? You know how I am always prompting you to get busy! Well, now I am putting my advice to work on myself! As always, I have lots and lots of page kits packed up and ready to go. I won't tell how many because that might give you an aproximate hint of what I think is even possible! Give us a guess here and the most accurate guess will win a priz...

Along with our new look, we have a NEW "SHABBY BLUES" CONTEST! In honor of my new blue floral scheme here on the MY ALL blog, I am creating a small prize package from my stash for one lucky winner! I am making it up of blues and whites and florals and shabby chic goodness! Leave a comment --with your contact email--below and you could be our random Shabby Blues WINNER! I will choose a random winner on Thursday evening, Nov 4th. You could win! :)

I finally decided to try to update the blog look myself and came across a great FREE shabby chic blog site with backgrounds and so on usable for Blogger! Hurray! It is called ShabbyBlogs.com http://www.shabbyblogs.com/ and if you click on the buttons on their header there it takes you to the choices for some lovely buttons and backgrounds--beautiful work gals! It just took me a few minutes to do the background and a few more mintutes to personalize the header in Paint and Picasa. (Photoshop not needed!) Whatcha think?
