yum Chocolate

Challenge 5 for the ADSR was posted on Sunday and part of the directions is to include chocolate. I know what I want to do, I just haven't finished.. heck I haven't started my layout yet.
I've been checking the gallery to see what wonderful Chocolate layouts have been posted and I saw this last night

I thought it was so cute! What a darling little child, the frame on the wall reminded me of a bulletin board at school. Just too cute... I read the credits...

Credits:
Auntie M--chocolate splat, chocolate handprints and Dark brown BG
Loloden--frame and little girl
Sahlin Studio--Grateful quote
JulieItis--tag
Scraps of Candy--chocolate alpha

OMG there it was in black and white the very first time I saw Scrappily-Ever-After listed in a credit! *jumps up and down* I must scream it to the world!

Thank you Rabecca for allowing me to post your layout!!

So if you are thinking.. "I don't have that" it's in the Doc Brown paper freebie and in case you miss them here they are again.

I used the same background on my Halloween card.

I've been busy "racing"

I don't know if any of you are also doing the Amazing Digi Scrap Race but it's been fun and challenging. This week we had to design "Artist Trading Card" and I had no idea what they even were! After a few questions and looking at the gallery for examples, I ended up designing something in the size they ask for but more my style.

My friend and racing partner have a blog where we are showing off our work just for the race. take a look if you'd like.

I finished my racing challenges early this week so I'm trying to catch up on my challenges at Scrap Matters

I did two speed scraps today.. one at a new site - which I'll NEVER go back to again. Scrapping is suppose to be fun, not stressful that you didn't follow the evil speed hostess directions exactly.
here's what I made -

It's the 1st of the Month

Do you know what that means? IT'S BACK UP YOUR FILES DAY!

Spend some time back up your work, if you haven't since last month. You never know when your computer's hard drive will crash and you will lose all of your masterpieces.

You should have THREE redundant systems. I learned this after working with servers for 10 years! So your computer's hard drive.. an external hard drive.. and maybe burn some CDs... anyway you can do it, at least have a single BACK UP!

Last month I told you about http://mozy.com/ and I'm telling you again. It's only $4.95 a month. I don't get any special reward points or anything for telling you about this, I just thought it was very useful information!

Now go back up your files!

Here is another WONDERFUL thing I just learned about.. you can back up your bookmarks! Over the years I've lost so many good bookmarks from computer crash or getting a new computer and nobody moved them over for me.. so when I read that you can backup your bookmarks too I was thrilled.

Check out Delicious. You sign up for FREE and you can import all your current bookmarks. I did it last night so I still have to 'tag' them so they will be better organized but if my computer goes down, I'll still have that neat little Thank You note generator that I used when my son was born.
