Dream it, scrap it, live it

Someone should stop me. Possibly? Maybe not. I should be working. I have to pack, too. (Headed to California in the am.)  Until then, enjoy my… indulgences.

    This is a gift! Everyday I get something new from you, and I mean it, really new! You’re the best, and thanxs 4 the idea of scrapporn.
    You made me remember seen someone’s scrappage online sometime ago, with almost the same untouchable theme, (personal fisical atributes), if you know what I mean… It was a great page! No offensive at all, and a very good approach to the subjet.

    So, thank you Cathy for being an ORIGINAL girl, always!

    I have a question for you. On page 35 of your Sequel of Clean and Simple, you challenge us to do a page with five random facts about ourself and then e-mail it to you. The only info in the back of the book was your blog. Where am I going to find the e-mail address? This is a challenge I would like to do. I have never done any scrapbooking about myself. But, after reading your book, I see where I really should so that my kids will know more about me when they are older and have this to look back on. And, your challenge to send it on to you, I think, will motivate me.

    So, this is my project to work on after Thanksgiving.

    Thanks again,
    Tina
