let me preface by saying i haven't watched any of her videos about favorites and actually haven't watched any video of hers in many years; however i'm aware of her (and remember her from the old days when she scrapbooked and her last name was still Ditz). my feeling is, with the rampant product shilling by these "scrap celebs", if you are saying something is your favorite, you need to have used it and you should also provide a sample of something you made with it that shows why it's your favorite. otherwise it comes off as "they're paying me to say this." JMO of course

ok here's mine finally. i did both the donna challenge and the no tools equation. journaling is on the back and talks about the relationship between my mom and her cousin. no tools used; i used sequin waste as a "stencil" and an offcut of ribbon plus a 6x6 paper. please ignore the HORRIBLE nuvo border. i was ready to throw them all in the trash for behaving badly. also i apologize for the glare on the flair badge; that's what i get for taking photos at night. beautiful ordinary life by sadkid, on Flickr

Sorry for not responding sooner. Life has been crazy at work because we moved to a new building. I did get more cards made in November, but haven't had time to calculate any of the points. Sorry I wasn't a better team player!! no worries! i know everyone is busy we kicked some major booty even without your extra points, so it's allllll good

welcome to another saturday and another sketch! i chose this sketch because i thought it would be very easy to customize to your particular style/page size. Sketch_102209 by Diana Fisher, on Flickr here is my take on it. i followed it very closely, except of course i piled lots of stuff on my example for sketchy saturday dec 8 by sadkid, on Flickr i hope you enjoy the sketch and can't wait to see what everyone creates! and because i know scrappy time is at a premium right now, give yourself 10 points if you do this sketch in december

joblackford my kids don't know any christmas songs either! i learned them in school and they were never taught any, because of all the PC nonsense about not celebrating it at school. when they did christmas er holiday programs at school, the songs were all new "modern" songs that no one in the audience had ever heard of. since i'm not a huge christmas music fan, my kids have not had many opportunities to listen to it, so they just don't know any of the songs. pretty sad IMO. grammadee great prompt!

what a cute sketch! i have a story. as a child of the 70s/80s, we all had to have a record player and there are lots of old christmas photos of me holding up record albums. 2 off the top of my head that i can remember are john cougar's american fool and a kenny rogers greatest hits album. i vividly remember jamming to the saturday night fever album with my cousins in their bedroom and dancing around and being cool lol. and i remember getting the single "hit me with your best shot" one year, and the 3 of us girl cousins listening to it over and over until we knew all the lyrics. so, for the circle of life bit, my 19-yr-old, who has had an ipod since she was 10 and now has more songs on her phone than i have photographs, has declared she wants a record player. she'll be getting one for christmas, so i am now on the hunt for cheap albums (going to be scouring thrift stores and the like) and i'm secretly hoping to find at least one of my childhood favorites, which i will totally buy whether she would like it or not i can't wait to hear the pop and hiss only a record will give you. and i can't wait to share it with her

the last one on her channel looks to be a month ago. her kids are getting older, perhaps she's busier with them? she has a patreon too, so she might be doing more on that channel. mercytiara are you out there?
