    Love the video blogs Cathy! What a great week it’s been…..keep it up.

  4. Juliana says

    Love the vlogging! (That’s a word, right?) And I am also a fan of the common margin. I digiscrap, so the Photoshop aligning tools help me out with that.

  5. tiffany says

    i have absolutely enjoyed this creative week and it has been all thanks to you cathy z! what fun! maybe you will celebrate the week AFTER scrapbook day too……[well, it doesn’t hurt to ask!]

  6. Aly B. says

    Happy NSD!

    LOVED your video blogs! Would love to see them become a regular feature! Happy Natl. Scrapbook Day, in advance! I’m spending the day at an all-day crop, with hubby’s blessing (it keeps me out of his hair while he works around the house!) – boy, could I use a big box of scrapping goodness! Pick me, pick me! Please? Pretty please with Neil on top?!? 😀

  10. Katee L. says

    Your video blogs are hilarious! I’ve been looking forward to them all week. That mystery box looks…intriguing to say the least. I’d love to win (I’m sure everyone else would too, though)!!

  11. Gina says

    OK, pick me for the contest…I never win anything, it’s so sad! Thanks for keeping me entertained this week with the video blogs! Enjoy your “vacation” with the kids. Happy NSD!

  13. Angie says

    I think you should video blog all the time Cathy!! Thanks for keeping us entertained. Why do I always have to work on National Scrapbooking Day !?!?! ARGHHHHHH! Take care, from your friendly neighbor up the road in St. Cloud!

    Angie

  14. jill p. says

    okay, back out of lurkdom to say- PICK ME PICK ME! I would totally drive to get the box and u wouldn’t even have to pay shipping! If u were too afraid to meet your blog stalker u could just leave it Archiver’s for me and then I could be a superstar there picking up a package from the one and only superblogger! Okay, going back to my corner, thanks for sharing coffee with me this week, I felt really special.

    Jill from MN 🙂

  18. Angie U says

    Hi Cathy! Lovin’ your v-blogs. and why is “gesticulating” such a funny word?

  20. kp says

    video blogging is the best. and if you pick me, you won’t have to ship it, I live in St. Paul and could just stop over and pick it up? Or not, if you would prefer that too…

  22. Maya says

    Thanks for the fun week! I love seeing all super creative pages out there but in my scrapbooks I prefer “less is more” approach 🙂 Clean and simple! Love the common margins! 🙂

  23. Michele Attaway says

    Hey Little Miss Cathy Pants!
    Your loverly super blog has taken my mind off our earthquakes (I’m in Reno) for 4-6 minutes every morning and I am thankful for that!
    My magic pants just sprung a knee-owie so I might actual take a needle sewing thread to them….have a crazy NSD!
    Michele

  26. Lori says

    I love comfy pants, too! Must have something to do with my ever-growing muffin top? Regardless, enjoy reading/watching your blog. You always make me smile!

  27. Kirsten says

    LOVE your blog…LOVE the video posts…thinking I may need to get a life because I’m on here everyday, waiting with bated breath for what you’ll post next….

  30. Nikola says

    I have loved all your Videos this week. they alsa bringa smile to my face. thanks for all you do.

  31. Karin says

    Cathy, I love the video blogs too. You should definitely make it a regular thing…like video blog Friday or something like that. Have fun having a crazy National Scrapbook Day in your magic pants.

    Have you ever heard of adding “in your pants” to the end of any song title or movie title? I think from now on I’ll add “in your magic pants.”

    karin in Minneap.

  34. Gloria says

    YES Cathy Z….you have to make the video blog a regular feature on your blog!!! You have to pick me because we have the same glasses…but yours look way more cute!

    g in Md.

  35. Jane says

    I’m so glad you found the magic pants! Every woman needs her magic pants…

  36. Tracey P. says

    Don’t stop video blogging! It’s very entertaining. I thought I was the only one who wore the same clothes, basically, every day. When I have to go out in something other then my sneakers, it really throws me for a loop. : )

    Tracey P.

  38. Juls says

    Keep the video blogs…i have my morning coffee while watching you. You ROck! Seriously…

  39. Krystn says

  41. Susan says

    Cathy – I have totally loved the video blog and the challenges all this week. What can I say you ROCK as usual. Love ya! Have fun at the concert. And glad you found the magic pants too!

    Susan

  42. René says

    I have LOVED the video blogging this week! Please keep it up!!

    I completely understand your need to scrapbook with space and with straight lines. I am the same way…not sure if I could tilt a picture on a layout if my life depended on it (well, I guess I could, but I’d be really unhappy about it and would change it as soon as I could).

    I hope the “Goddess of the Random Number Generator” picks ME!!!!

  43. Carolyn says

    I have loved watching the videos this week!

    Pick me . . . I really NEED that box . . . ok prob dont really need but would love to get it anyway 😉

  45. BethBG says

    Loved the super blogging this week, lots of fun! Have a great NSD and I’m counting down the days to CKC-Buffalo! XX’s!

  48. Kathryn (from Nova Scotia) says

    You are so funny and real. It’s been great to see the vidoes this week and I agree – more, more!

    Have a great day!

  49. Katy says

    I’ve enjoyed the video blog this week. I’ve got the itch to start a whole new album thanks to the challenges.

  50. Marcie says

    Please, please, please keep the video blogging (maybe a monthly thing?). Thanks for the fun NSD week/day!

  52. beth says

    the video blog this week was awesome.
    hope you enjoy your rainy day.
    will it ever be spring here?
    take care.

  53. Sherry says

    Happy National Scrapbook Day to you! Love the videos each day; they make me smile.

    Sherry

  54. Amy says

    I love the videos! You make me laugh so much and I need that in the am after being up with a teething toddler all night long! Thank you!!!!

  56. Heidi says

    Cathy, you have made my week. As much as I love your writing your little shining personality just comes through on video!!!! My little one only has 2 days off next week, but I feel for you since your kids are at the stage when they are always fighting, I totally remember that with my sis. Thus I basically have an only child growing up in this house, have one that is 18 and gone. But I am totally inspired by the 12 thing challenge. Think I am going to have to do that tonight.

  57. Kyla says

    You are such a riot. Love looking at your blog over my morning coffee. Keep it up!

  58. Sharon F. says

    Thanks for the week of SuperBlogging. You are a hoot! Happy NSD to you too. Hope you an keep up with yourself tomorrow..
    will also keep my fingers crossed that I get picked for the box o’ fabu stuff!

    Enjoy your weekend!
    sharon f.

  60. Brandi says

    You make me laugh out loud!! Love the video blog. Glad that you said your last name in one of the videos – I am ashamed to admit that I have been pronouncing it incorrectly.

    Please let me be the lucky one to get the mystery box!

  62. Danielle Clement says

    Hey Cathy! Love your blog. read/watch all the time. Happy NSD!!

  63. Teresa says

    You have no choice! You have to keep up the video blog! You have a huge fan base that will be so sad and disappointed if you don’t! I have loved it – plus the laptop is fixed so you are ready to go. I think it also makes a good excuse to not use the treadmill. “I can’t workout…I need to do my video blog.” Well, that would work for me anyway. Hope to see more of you in the morning. hint…hint…

  65. Kalina says

    I love that you are so real. I have a ball sitting there in my room too. Do we keep them to guilt us, or do we think we’ll do it one day?? I hope I win the box of goodies, how fun……..mystery box!

  66. Jacki says

    You’ve got my vote to continue your video blogging! Maybe once a week like ‘vlogging vensday’ lol! Love you!

  67. Karen G says

    Thanks for the laughs everyday this week. Enjoyed watching your craziness.

  69. Jody says

    You are a hoot and a half.
    I am NOT a morning person, but just knowing you were here got me out of bed this morning.
    Okay…that and the boston cream Dunkin’ Donut screaming my name from the kitchen.
    Please never ever stop the vlogs. 🙂
    Jody

  70. Kelley says

    pick me! cathy, i never miss a blog post! you are one of the highlights of my day, lol.

  71. Ann says

    Thanks for the fun week – I’ve been fighting a terrible cold the last couple of days, watching your blogs puts a smile on my face – thanks Cathy! You’re a hoot! Happy NSD! 🙂

  72. sarah vrolyk says

    Common margins are a good thing. (Said in my very best Martha Stewart voice.)

    Oh, yes. Please keep the video blogging up. You are a gem! 🙂

  73. Susan Beth Breuner says

    Met you at Inspired – actually, in the airport on the way home from Inspired. Been checking out your blog ever since. Great job! The box looks interesting! Have a great day tomorrow!

  74. Amy S says

    Hey Cathy, what was wrong with your laptop? Mine sometimes makes a similar noise…but I don’t have easy access to the hot Apple geniuses. Love the vid blogs, you are a riot! Happy NSD!

  76. Kris M. says

    Love the video blog!!! I thought I was crazy, when it came to the margins in my layouts, now I know I’m not!! Thank You

  77. betsy says

    Loooooved the video blogging!!!! You are too funny and I’ve loved all the challenges this week especially the one about everyday photos. The girl at CVS wanted to know why I had photos of my front loading washer/dryer (my favorite appliance in the house) and pictures of dirty dishes in the sink (yes, I even explained to her about the challenge) and she was like, “okay” hmmm. Anyway,keep up the video blogging every now and then-good stuff!

  78. Teresa says

    Hey Cathy,

    Thanks for keeping it real with your video blogging. I can so relate to some of your comments, “kids argue all the time” deep breath, small house only so many spaces to move around. 😉 I loved it all.

    I hope to participate in some NSD stuff. Thanks for all you do

    Teresa Schauer

  80. Kathie R says

    LMAO over Dan and your big pants story. Great to have coffee on my computer screen so early in the am. Now that story just would not be the same in written format without the facial expressions. 😉

  81. janis says

    and happy NSD to you, too, Cathy! thank you for the fun week, you super blogger, you! 🙂

  82. Renee says

    Loved super blog week! You are just so funny. BTW, I’m sure that big of box fun stuff would look great as a center piece on my dining room table…

  84. Corinna Lyons-Revello says

    I just watched your blogs from the rest of the week, and today’s is unavailable. What? How can that be? When there’s a mystery box of some sort involved? I mean, seriously, could life be any MORE unfair here? LOL Hope that video reappears sometime today! P.S. Thoroughly enjoyed all the other videos.

  85. Kim says

    This CANNOT be the last video blogging……please please please…..c’mon Cathy…..please??????????

  86. Lisa says

    Love your vlogging! The “pants story” cracked me up today. My hubby has actually snuck my favourite pair into the trash – can you believe it 🙂 the nerve huh? Anyhow, keep on sharing your sense of humour.

  88. Michelle B says

    not only is it national scrapbook day – it is my birthday! did my mother plan this? Was I destined to be a scrapbooker from the very start of life? So I like to think about it as a day that everyone gets together to celebrate me by doing my fav thing…scrapbooking. national scrapbook because it is Michelle’s birthday. See so i need that big box. it is my bithday. 🙂

  89. Tracy Anderson says

    Cathy, I found your blog through Donna Downey’s and I’ve been visiting all week. This is my first comment, so hi! I just have to say thank you for all the giggles you provided me with during this week – you are so much fun! 🙂 Please keep video blogging… it’s very entertaining. Hope you have a great NSD and that you get some scrapping time this weekend!

  90. Erika says

    Love your video blogs! Love your challenges this week. I’m not usually one who does those because I never seem to have the time, but I’m on retreat so I’m going to try to get at least one done and get it off to you. Love your color challenge especially … so excited because I’ve got patterned papers in those colors. Lucky me!!!! Happy NSD and by the way, pick me for your box o’ goodies!

    Erika

  91. Molly says

    I have thouroughly enjoyed your commentary this week. You crack me up. You really do. good info served up in a great way. Thanks so much.

  92. Anna says

    cathy,
    you must keep the video blogs. they crack me up. yes. it is all about me. so that means that i need the box of goodies. pretty please. i promise to not be a spacist and to work for common margins for all scrap layouts.
    u rock.

  93. Kirsten says

    Yes, definitely make a regular feature! Very cool. Love, love, love your work.

  96. Dey says

    My modem has been out , almost for a week and my biggest concern was the fact that I couldn’t read your blog and today it finaly decided to work, and the minute it worked I check out your blog and found these amazing video with a give away how cool is that????
    Love my day =)

    Your #1 fan from Mexico

  97. kathy says

    Cathy, have loved watching you this week. could this become a daily thing ya’ think??? Love that watching you is as it is, thanks for being you. Kathy

  98. michelle says

    I default to using one-pica gutters between my photos and page elements. Too many years of working on a paper with a pica pole, Xacto knife, one-point border tape and rubylith. (Yah, I’m dating myself.(

  99. Jaana says

    I think you should vlog more often, too. (Isn’t vlog a funny word? Sounds like something the Count from Sesame Street would say… one, one video vlog…ha ha ha!)

    Ok, I’m weird, I know.

    Happy Friday!

  100. Marlies says

    Looked forward to your video blog everyday. Thanks for starting my day with a laugh.

  102. Relly says

    If there is any justice in this world you’ll drop pounds just be being sheer entertainment. Sod the treadmill.

  107. Heather Main says

    Happy NSD Cathy! I have loved spending my mornings with you this week! Cheersing you with my coffee cup!
    Hope you do a regular video blog each week you are a natural!
    Heather Main

  108. Liz says

    I guess all good things must come to an end. Please consider making your video blogs more frequently, for us CZ fans.
    Thanks

  110. Karen says

    I know that all those other people think you are funny and leaving all those blah blah blahs, but listen to me when I say that I think you are the greatest, also my friend has won prizes from a number of other SB blogs like Donna and Lisa and so It would really be nice if I could just say look what I won.

  112. leslie says

    Cathy,
    Honestly, I can’t decide which type of blogging I like best… actually, I love both types of YOU!!! Keep doing it all!

    I even did a few of the challenges! Yeah me! Cause I NEVER do challenges.

    Thanks for the fun!
    Leslie

  113. Kristen B. says

  120. Marilyn says

    Ok-I vote for video bloggin on a regular basis! I really, really want to see your vblog from the bathroom-ok-that’s weird-but you SAID you were going to….

  121. Linda says

    love the videos, but miss your witty writing also. maybe you could be a “hybred blogger”. i’m just sayin.

  122. JennyR says

    I am so thinking of you today! My kids went back to school this week after being off for 4 weeks. We have year round school here, absolutely the best invention ever if I must say. (I just dread the weeks they are off-lol!is that mean to say?)So hope you have all those fun 😉 outings planned, all the extra food they gobble down oh and the endless whining of how bored they are….. Yep I am thinking of you and sending positive thoughts your way– 21 days can go fast– at least that is what I tell myself!

    Oh and I am glad you were able to get your computer fixed!!!

  123. Jocie says

    As a SAHM of 5 boys, the youngest who is 7 weeks, I am currently having trouble even getting out of the house. A box of scrapbooking goodies delivered to my door, would make my year. I might would even come out of my sleep deprived stupor long enough to get a page done.

  124. Rita says

    ok I actually LOL (no I am not typing LOL for the hell of it I really did laugh out loud at 1am and scared the shit out of my sleeping husband).

    Ever thought about a being a comedian? No really you are too funny!

    Cheers
    Rita

  126. Janice says

  131. DanelleB. says

    You crack me up!! Keep up the video blogs, I need the laugh in my not so exciting morning of 2 boys fighting…daily!! Can’t they just keep their hands to themselves??
    Thanks.

  132. Sabrina says

    Love the video blog and I still would click on your airport video blog because it was so funny. Take care!

  134. Debbie says

    Cathy…thanks for all the laughs. Also got love the reminders that my girlish crush on Dave Gahan 1980’s to the present (Depeche Mode for those of you who are 80’s music challenged)is to your Neil Finn. Love that. MMMhmmm…how bout that?!
    Ooooohhhh please pick me for fun stuff too.

  136. Denise says

  181. heather says

    I’ve enjoyed the vlogging this week. Especially liking when you just spring little words like “gesticulating” on us. Some odd reason, I found that amusing.

    Thank goodness for magical pants, huh?

    Heather in Texas

    I love the video blogs!! It has helped me start my day with a smile:-) I have the same pair of pants!! I love them so, my husband has also given me that look of wonder….since they are butt ugly, but oh so comfy!!!

  184. Karen says

    Like the video blog and the randomness it brings to your blog. So real. Happy National Scrapbooking day!!

  186. Heather D says

    Cathy you rock! Thanks for super blogging this week, you’ve been even more entertaining than usual. (Oh, and mystery box? please!!!)

  187. Lisa Soares says

    Thanks for a fun week with your video blogs. I’ve really enjoyed watching them and appreciate your sense of humour! I hope you do decide to make them a regular feature on your blog. Thanks!

  188. Joanne says

    I think that I have the same places we go and all about Joanne albums! LOL! I am working on making sure the others fill up with pages too. Wish more people understood that life should just be about scrapbooking on National Scrapbooking Day. With everything we have going on, mine will be all about the pictures that will someday become a page. Thanks for a great week.

  190. Kristin says

    Cathy-
    I think we may have just set a record – I have had coffee with you 5 days in a row this week! Maybe you should send that box to your new best friend in CT?

  191. Melissa says

    That video blog?

    Well,
    it
    ROCKS
    MY
    WORLD.

    Admittedly, I need to get out more often.

    Today’s schedule was Lowe’s, Michael’s and the grocery. None of which got done. In fact, I’m still in my housedress/mumu/whatever it’s called that is my version of your Magic Pants.

    And Crocs. Because wood laminate is hell on the feet.

    Hell I tell you.

  192. Kathy Reid says

    You are so funny! Love the videos. Would love to win some scrappies! Thanks for the laughs.

  193. Tracy B (in Alberta) says

    *raising hind* Hi, I’m Tracy and I am a space-ist. But I love learning from you Cathy, I guess I need to know the reason why not to do something before I’ll do it.

    Thanks for the entertaining vlogs. My treadmill is just there,lonely, waiting for me to return also.

  194. jennifer h says

  200. Wendy says

    You are too FUNNY! I, too, have my coffee every morning while watching your video blog. You have inspired me for the weekend – I am NOT going to be a “spacist”!!

    P.S. I was really looking forward to your blog from your bathroom! I hope your video blog will be a regular feature!
    P.S.S. I am so glad you found your pants. My husband came home yesterday and looked at my hair and says with a smirk on his face “Wow, your hair looks so pretty”. Somedays I just don’t bother! 🙂

  201. Steph says

    you crack me up! Thanks for giving me something to look forward to each morning. How pathetic! Not you. Me. 🙂

  203. Beth R. says

    I can totally relate to the magic pants. I no longer work outside the home YIPEE ! Now I try to stay home all day. I look forward to your blog & can always count on you for a good laugh. I also glance at my treadmill every now and then,pretend to count points and live in my magic p.j pants! The only thing that would make me happier is if you lived next door (you could dog sit for me)except I never leave the house… and my muffin top would not have grown into a cake roll! I would love to win your giveaway and thank you for the video blogging, sorry to see the week end but will continue to read about your hilarious ordinary days.

  204. annie says

    I loved watching your videos…….so fun!! What a fun week! Hope it didn’t take too long to upload your last video!

  207. Susan McGrann says

    Love, love your video blog. I’ll miss seeing them next week, hope you continue to post more of them (even the long ones!). BTW, are my margins even?

  209. kate campbell says

  210. gitz says

  211. Lana Wells says

    What a hoot! I have enjoyed the entire week of Life with CZ! Please keep it comin!

  213. cyndo says

    Love the Super Blog…made me laugh.
    And I so get what you’re saying
    about even margins…especially with
    text. Remember this little jingle..
    .”Open the door, it’s mystery box.”
    …or something like that.
    Thanks for the challenges and the
    laughs. ~ cindy

  214. kate says

    Adding my vote for keeping the video blog going – even if it’s just as a surprise once in a while. LOVE your sense of humor. Would love to unpack a box like that as I unpack the rest of my stuff & get it organized.

  215. Kris says

    HI Cathy,
    Love you, love your video blog – keep ’em coming. See you in Phoenix in Sept.

  222. Lisa says

    Very Entertaining Kathy! Thanks very much! At least you don’t have a toilet on your porch like I do. The bathroom is being repaired, I swear.

  223. Amy says

    Great vids, Super Blogger Cathy! LOL@ the lost pants! I enjoyed every second. You should make this a regular feature. Keep your sanity over the next three weeks. 😛

  224. Madeline says

    Please make the video blogging a regular feature. My favorite moment of this one – the slow pan of the yoga ball followed by the revelation that you don’t in fact use it. So relate and love your timing.

    Pick me, pick me, pick me!! (jumping up and down and wishing I had on a sports bra)

  226. Angela Walthall says

    You totally crack me up. I have never heard someone say that they wanted to hump another persons leg!!!! That is awesome. I hope I win!!!! Have a great NSD.

  228. Mary G. says

    I am voting to keep super blog going- it has so made my week!!! Thank you!! I love your pages, the tour of your home, your stories all of it, thank you!!!
    Mary G

  229. emily pitts says

    do you know why i love equal margins (don’t ALWAYS use them, but still i love them)?

    it’s because when i first went to a crop at archivers 2 years ago, i won your clean and simple 2 and that’s how my education in scrapping began. that’s when it became fun. all you.

    so thanks.

  230. Teresa says

    Hey you promised to blog from the BATHROOM. Just kidding. Enjoyed it. MB

  240. Lubna says

    It would be great if you could make the video blog a more common feature! I think today’s was the best. Scrapbookers are spacists…love it. Funny thing – I have a yoga ball and a treadmill that I don’t use. the treadmill has boxes on it now, sigh. Someday!

  241. karlalala says

  264. Steph says

    Oh Pick Me Pick Me!!!! Loved your video blogs. You always crack me up! I need to review my Encyclopedia of an extraordinary life for more ideas on the spacing of elements. Loved that CKU!

  265. Michelle R says

    You should make the video blog a regular thing, you too funny!! I would like to win that big box of stuff.

  267. Michelle R says

    Man, I just noticed I forgot a word in my post. You are too funny!!! Pick me! Please?

  278. Jennifer says

    Love the video blog! It made me feel like we had a connection. Besides our totally- rockin’-stay-at-home-Minnesota-mom connection. You were talking to me, right? Anyway, thanks for the daily dose of humor!

  279. Melissa says

    Have fun with the kids for a couple of weeks! The challenges were great this week! I’d love to win the box of goodies! Pick me! I just moved back to my home town and I have to drive hours just to get some scrapbook supplies! Happy National Scrapbook Day!

  280. Ann says

    I am really digging the video blogs. You have a great sense of humor. I’m off to scrap now, keeping in mind SPACING.

  281. Suzi says

    Thanks for a GREAT week Cathy!
    You are a joy 🙂 I feel like we’ve had coffee everyday this week and it was so relaxing.

  282. Traci says

    Love the video blog entries. I enjoy reading your blog – always a ROTFPIP kind of thing!!

    Thanks,
    Traci

  283. Amie says

    looks like a good one! I love the Vlogs, however I do have a request they stay under 5 minutes. I do a lot of blurfing (blog-surfing, isn’t that a horrible word?) and I hate to miss out on anyone’s vlogs, but some of them are too stinkin’ long! Love your content though, so whatchagonnado? 😉 Amie Haroldsen

  284. Michele McGraw says

    Cathy…you have GOT to make the vlogging a regular thing. I LOVE it! I’m never laughed so hard (with you, not at you) in the morning. I had to give up my morning tea for fear I might burn myself when I laugh so hard Thank you so much for the great week…and please keep it up!

  285. Connie W says

    I don’t see how you could possibly go back to text blogging after this week. thanks for the laughs!

  286. Wendy says

    Hey Cathy! I used Nat’l Scrapbook Day in one of my spelling test sentences today {I teach darling little 2nd graders :)} “Tomorrow is going to be a GREAT day because. . .big dramatic pause. . .it’s National Scrapbook Day!!!” After the boys quit looking at me like I was insane, we proceeded on with our morning. Thanks for the laughs this week! ~wendy

  290. Michelle says

    Love, love, love the video blogging! And if you pick me to win the box, I’d drive over and save you the shipping!!

    Michelle in Maple Plain, MN

  292. Christine F. says

    You crack me up! I’ve really enjoyed your blogs this week! Off to check today’s challenge….

    Christine

    PS – pick me, pick me! I never win! 🙂

  293. Tammy Barkey says

    Thanks for the video blogging this week. I really like your writing and the video blogging is really nice for understanding those visual concepts like the spacing you talked about today. As you were talking, I realized that if you had written about it I would probably had a harder time understanding what you meant. It is such a simple concept when you hold up the page, point to several examples and explain. I get it now. Thank you, Tammy

  294. Sara Bartig says

    Your video blogging has been great! I am still laughing at the one where we saw your body!! 🙂 Keep up the video blogging…please!

  295. Elisa says

    Happy Friday Cathy! Loved your Super Blogging this week. Cheer me up and pick my name for the mystery box. Have a great weekend! ~Elisa

  302. Nathalie says

    LOVED the video blogs too! and I will use common margins forever if you pick me for that glorious painting! (I realy mean for that box of goodies!)

  303. Lori N says

    I think its hilarious that you lost you pants on National No Pants Day. (Yes, it’s a holiday – wiki it if you don’t believe me.)

  304. Vateresa says

    You are so funny. I love it when I am having a difficult day in my super-duper big wig high-powered job, ha, when I can come visit you–in video or words, you are a funny, clever, silly woman. And you’re not space-ist! You’re perfect. Ha.

  307. Susan Keuter says

  323. Deborah P says

    I’m crammed all week’s video-blog watching into one session today and it was a hoot! Thanks so much. I didn’t have a chance to do the challenges on the Simple Studio blog, but I’ve read most of them and am about to go catch up on those I’ve missed. They sound fun. Thanks!

  324. Taryn says

    So Cathy, the superblogs have been fun all week. I just have one question… Do you have a whole set of those clear coffee mugs, or just one that’s your favorite and you wash it every night, or do you not even really drink coffee and have just been carrying around that same cup with 2 sips of coffee in it all week? Hoping it’s the first…

    And, thanks for making me more conscious about margin today. I needed that. Seriously! 🙂

  325. Jane says

    You are such a hoot! Have a great day – thanks for making me smile today. jane

  326. Andrea says

    Loved the superblog! Please keep up the videos.

    Thanks… Andrea, Centerville GA

  327. Daisy Niemeyer says

    Common Margins! Wow, I had no idea that existed, I really thought people were THAT anal retentive! :0) And YES! please DO make video blogging something on the regular! Totally am crossing fingers, and hoping for that much needed box. I would love to share it with my new Korean friend! – You know in honor of NSD! Did I mention that South Korea is like the only place where they have not heard of scrapbooking!!!! I don’t know that that is true, but it’s really true for me! I am living in a scrappy hell since there are no LSS’s or HLs or Micheals!

  328. Christina says

    This week you have made me laugh so hard milk comes out of my nose — and I wasn’t even drinking milk!! And I’m glad you found your pants… Dan probably not so much.

  329. Di Hickman says

    hahahhaha! Spacist! I’m definitely NOT spacist! Embrace your space I say!!!
    Please keep video blogging! Make it monthly, weekly whatever but yeah we wanna see Cathy Z!

  330. nomadscrapper says

    Aloha from Honolulu Cathy! I enjoy your daily blogs from all the way across the ocean! You bring a smile to my face every day! Happy NSD!!

    Ellen

  332. Jen says

    please do make your video blogging a regular thing!!! funny and real and real funny…you are like the new coffee to my day!
    happy NSD!!

  333. Beth S. says

    Oh, Cathy – once again you delight me. I LOVE the video blogging although one can’t sneak a look while at work!
    So, I think that you might want to share the labels or design you used for the scrapbook labels (the one that said All About Cathy) – looked very cute (even though I only had a momentary glimpse). There are too many comments for me to think I’ll win the mystery box but the label design would sure help me get over my disappointment!!
    Thanks for a wonderful week – you’ve made it special, believe me.
    Have a great NSD!
    Beth S.

  335. Renee' says

    Cathy…
    You totally crack me up 🙂
    I love what you said about people being spacists…I find that in a lot of the scrapbook magazines there are pages packed full of stuff and I myself prefer some white space!

  336. Lisa V. says

    I have been enjoying your video blog all week. Today was a special treasure with the tip about spacing. I am going to think about this next time I am scrapbooking.

  337. Carol M says

    xoxo
    Jenny

  344. Lynn says

    Huh – so, I’ve been doing common margins all along – just thought it was because I was anal-retentive and had to have them all even! Who knew??

    Would love to have that box of goodies but let’s be realistic here – what are the chances you’re gonna pick me – slim to none!
    And that’s okay – somehow I’ll manage to carry on!

    Enjoyed all the videos!

    Lynn (furrball)

    I’ve enjoyed the video blog this week, but I’ve been looking for Liam Finn instead of Neil Finn on iTunes. Sorry I got the name wrong 🙂 I like Liam, I guess, I’ll have to find Neil… moving on the the Simple blog for the challenge…

  368. Sarah says

    Hey Cathy! Thank you for the the video blogs, you have made my Mum and myself laugh SO much each day and we always looked forward to seeing the next episode. You have done something good as laughter is the best medicine!!!
    Hugs, Sarah & Audrey xx

  370. Heidi P. says

    Totally loved the video blogging this week. Great way to forget I have been teaching all day….KWIM? You make me smile 🙂 Please do keep it up.

  371. Sara says

    Yes, please keep video blogging – love it! This is going to sound pathetic, but as a SAHM, it’s made me feel like I’ve gotten to have a little conversation with an adult every day. 🙂

  373. Penelope Pitstop says

    Cathy, Love, love, love the video blog. I am excited about Nat’l Scrapbook Day. Hope to get actually scrap. Thanks for all of the challenges this week. ~Jenny

  374. Kim T. says

    You make me giggle. I sometimes find myself talking back to you, just because something you say, rings true. Loved the video blogs this week!

  375. Kelly says

    Magic pants??! How cool!

    Margins…. man you have me checking them most times I stick something down on a page… that has to be a good thing, right?
    happy NSD to you as well – and thanks for Super Blog week – it’s been great.

    PS – Don McGlashan? He is a GOD… singing *Anchor Me* all around the house now

  376. Rhonda Markham says

    I want a box. I need a box. I need more stuff. Lots of stuff. And a box to put it in. Please send me the box.

  377. Maria says

    This has been one of the funnest (get it?) NSD week ever…. please continue super blogging. You are hilarious….

  378. Siobhan says

    Whoops, see that blank post, that would be me. So sorry about that.
    Hi Cathy, been watching all week and just love what you have been up to. The “mum uniform” I can so relate to, we all need a pair of pants like yours. I am looking forward to seeing what you have in store for NSD and would love to be entered into the mystery box comp. Hope it is OK that I live in Australia. Thanks for the reminder on equal space, I love it and agree that there is certainly some busy stuff out there.
    Read you soon
    Siobhan

    two things. i will be laughing in my office all alone, and my family peek in to see what is so funny. it’s you! and second thing….PICK MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  386. Audrey Foster says

    You kill me! I loved every single day this week-well, your posts, every single day at least. I think making video posts a normal feature would be awesome. I enjoyed them so much. I would sure like to win that mystery box too! Thanks for being tons o’ fun!
    Audrey in Ca.

  387. Kyla says

    You are SUCH a hoot! I’ve so enjoyed your challenges this week and I wish you could just do this forevah! (Yeah, I know . . . and no I’m not on any alternative medications.) Thanks for all the wonderful challenges, some of them have really made me step out of my comfort zone, and for this I am grateful. Glad your computer is back online and I hope you have a safe trip to Utah!

  388. Victoria says

    I had so much fun watching you vlog this week! Thank you for the laughs. Please enter me in the drawing. I would love to win!!

  390. AmyInKy says

    I’ve really enjoyed Super Blogging Week! Your “crowded page” reference cracked me up! 🙂

  391. Kathy says

    Cathy!

    All I can say is that you CRACK ME UP! I love your video blogging! It’s HILARIOUS! (You definitely need to make it a frequent thing on your blog!) I wish I lived next door to you because I would have such fun chatting with you! Your personality and sense of humor are AWESOME!

    I have been reading your blog for over a year now. Actually, your blog is the reason I started my blog! I kept reading your stories, and enjoyed it so much it made me want to try my hand at it too. (Not that my blog is even close to being as funny as yours! LOL)

    Thank you so much for brightening my days!

  392. Cass says

    Hi Cathy! Thanks so much for the video-blogging. It’s been fun! Keep it a regular feature for sure. 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend, and NSD. I’d love to receive a mystery box of stuff (please, please!).

  394. Suz says

    Loved the video blogging this week! Thanks for the great challenges! Fun fun!

  395. jodii says

    Love your blog Cathy you always make me laugh. Happy National Scrapbooking Day (it is Saturday here in Australia).
    Keep up the vblogging.

  397. Netleigh says

    Loved the video blogs but had to watch them at home, work firewall blocks them! I really identified with your shock at stitching and wings on Tuesday’s blog, so brave of you!

  399. Linda Townes says

    So many people so many comments, I know it’s hopeless but I will leave my name anyway…Love Love Love your work Cathy.

  400. Marci (from Bremerton, WA) says

    A day isn’t complete without reading/watching your blog! Thank you for making me laugh everyday!

  401. Michele Stevenson says

    Your videos have been so much fun this week! You totally crack me up–and inspire me at the same time 🙂 Thanks for the fun!

    Michele Stevenson

  403. Beth says

    Had fun watching your videos every day, and my 4 year old enjoyed them, too. Her first question this morning–“Mommy, are we gonna watch the lady with the glasses again today?” Oh, how heartbroken she will be tomorrow. Guess we’ll have to watch you in reruns:)

  406. Rachael Merrick says

    I have loved loved loved every second of super blogging. PLEASE continue. You make me laugh and feel crazy normal.
    Happy NSD
    Rach from Aust. xoxo

  408. Jools says

    Cathy, Cathy, Cathy… your ‘missing pants’ takes on a whole new meaning when read with a British mind!!! 😆

  410. Sue in Michigan says

    Make it a regular feature! You are great and help me laugh at my days. Those of us that love socks that make us smile have to stick together!

    Will miss video blog. Great job!

  413. Gioconda says

    I loved the videos this week. It’s nice to start the day with a laugh. Can’t wait to take your class at BPS.

    Gioconda

  415. Barb says

    Oh Cathy, it’s been a fun week with you and your superblogging! I also enjoyed your challenges at the Simple Studio blog, and I managed to scrap more this week than I do most other weeks, despite having a crazy busy after-work schedule this week. So thanks! And happy National Scrapbook Day!

  416. daurene t says

    I love your vlogging. do more please! pick me please.
    daurene from Utah!

  417. Sarah says

    Your video blogs have been the best all week. Thanks for the daily laughs. The more I “get to know you” the more I realize how alike we are. Have a great NSD day. I’ll be shooting photos but I’ll be wishing I was scrapbooking.

  420. Stephanie Carty says

    Hey Cathy! Great to see the videos this week, you crack me up! 🙂
    I haven’t scrapbooked since my ex and I split up last summer, but you have given me some great ideas…and I am seriously thinking since the kiddos are with their father this weekend, that I might actually accomplish some projects tomorrow.

    Definitely keep the video blogging, even if you only do it once a week or so. And tell DH to stop messing with your pants. Pants like those are sacred to all womenkind. I have a pair as well lol.

  421. ~kathryn~ says

    what i wouldn’t give to have Cathy’s box !
    hmm – that doesn’t sound the best – but i’m sure you know what i mean 😉
    I’ve loved superblogging week – you make me laugh – you even make my DH laugh as he has been watching over my shoulder.
    You have to video blog at least one more time – as we haven’t seen the toilet or the bedrooms yet !!!
    Happy National SCrapbook Day

  422. HM in MN says

    Wow, Cathy
    What an amazing response. And all these people saw you drink coffee and talk about your magic pants. 🙂
    Can’t wait for the next v-log and scrap inspiration.
    I just heard Sven say the sun will shine here in the Twin Cities, but do I believe him?! I think I just saw a snowflake again.

    Happy National Scrapbook Day
    (what an amazing world we live in when a whole day is dedicated to scrapbooking, pretty cool!)

  423. jmderidder says

    What a fun week…thanks for sharing. Enjoyed double Cathy in my life.

  424. RobynS says

    Love the V-blog this week. Every time I see your albums I wonder if I should just change all of my albums out. They just look so clean and tidy. Have a good day tomorrow. -RobynS from Savannah

  425. Lori C says

    You are truly hilarious! I agree with everyone – keep up the video blogging.

  426. sue Treiber says

    I would wacxh you every day, FYI
    who else better to laugh with?
    The best line was VOLUME THREE. Yeah.
    Rock on CZ!

  427. Leauriy says

    thanks and happy happy NSD.

  428. katie h says

    Happy National Scrapbook Day. I’m lovin it and could use your free stuff!

  430. Carmen King, Avondale, AZ says

    So great to hang out with you all week. I sure hope the video bug has struck you and you keep it up on a more regular basis – oh, and you should include the guitar once in awhile too!

    Thanks for the inspriation…love the books, twitter, links, and all that you do!

  431. Kirstie MacGowan says

    You should definitely make the video blogging a regular feature! You are SO funny! 🙂

  432. Carmen King, Avondale, AZ says

    Hey, while you are in a teaching mode one of these days…share more of what you know about some basic graphic design skills. I am more more of a “reporter” at heart and really want my pages to reflect that and I think you know more about how to get them to do that than I do. Care to share?

  433. Jonni says

    Would love love to see a regular video blog. Thanks for sharing yourself this week. Oh, pick me…..;>)

  434. Gail in Cincy says

    Totally love the video blogging! Totally want to win your box…did I just say that? Anyhoo you know what I mean. THANKS!!!!

  435. Anne Setter says

    Love you, love your coffee cup, your back hair flip, your spaces, and your treadmill – looks just like mine, btw.

  436. Mel Nunn says

    What no toilet???? Hey I got up this morning hoping to see you in there….

    Thanks for vlogging all week… Its been so much fun to watch. Now draw out my name for the mystery box already!!

  437. Anne says

    I just sat and watched these all in a row. Awesome! 😀 And now I’m going to check out the challenges to see what I’ve been missing.

  441. Dawn M. says

    Cathy,

    I have totally enjoyed the video blogging. I think you should throw one in every now and again just for kicks! You are too funny!

  445. Pam says

    Kathy, so so love the video blog!! Happy National Scrapbooking Day to you:)

    Pam

  446. Christine says

    You are just so real and funny! Keep it up. Love the helpful tips too.

  447. Pam says

    I guess I need some sleep, I put a K instead of a C in your name sorry. Good night.

  448. Jana says

    I SO hope you continue video blogging. Gave me a good chuckle to look forward to every day! And who knew there were magic pants in this world? 🙂

  451. Susan says

    Love the video blog! It’s great for a smile everyday – you make me laugh.

  452. Sheryl says

    Cathy- I was trying to explain the whole NSB Day thing to my husband and son tongight at dinner. My DH is super supportive of my scrapbooking habit, but he said , “that just sounds like a a reason to go shopping to me.” It would SO make my day and validate National Scrapbook Day if I won a cool mystery box full of goodies!!

  456. Amy says

    Please keep video blogging! LOVE them! Enjoy having your kids home with you for the next three weeks! Ha!
    Amy from MN who lives in Ohio

  457. lynne says

    Yo Superblogger! Have loved this week, a highlight of my day. You’ll have to ask Cole to draw you a comic strip as the super hero, superblogger. I imagine he’d have an interesting take on it.

    Thanks for thinking of us, we all love goodies.

  459. Kristi B says

    Cathy,

    Please send your box of goodies my way as I I am so worthy (my spacing is Perfecto ALL of THE TIME)! Well…..maybe not all the time but I try SO hard & have really good intentions! :0)

  460. Becky says

    I too enjoy the video blogs – keep them coming. You know we all want to see a blog from your bathroom! Just wanted to know why such a quirky girl as yourself (just love saying/typing the word quirky) has such a blah coffee mug? A clear mug doesn’t suit you – you need something much more colorful, don’t ya think?

  461. Kris says

    Hello fellow Crowded House groupie! Love the vlogging, but I can’t watch it at work so my happy time is not complete. There it is, I’ve confessed what it really is that I’m doing while I should be toiling away. Anyway, would love to receive a box from you! And if not, do you think maybe I could get a picture of you with my husband at CKC KC? Thanks!

  463. Sheryl says

    Cathy- If I could win a big box of goodies, it would TOTALLY validate NSD. I was trying to explain NSD to my DH and DS tonite. My husband smiled and said, “sounds like a perfect excuse to spend money to me.”

  464. Jess says

    I have enjoyed your blog and hope you will do video every now and then. I would so love to have your mystery box. Pick me:) Jess

  465. Lauren says

    I do believe, if my degree in Art History doesn’t fail me, that your painting is by the Spanish artist, El Greco…but I couldn’t tell fer shure, since you kinda just flashed it up there…You talk just like you write, and I sure do enjoy it. Who writes your scripts, anyway??? Hah. You should have your own show. Happy NSD!!

  467. Nicole says

    oh i have been loving your video blogs this week!!
    please tell me you will do them once a week.
    happy nsd to you 🙂
    Nicole

  469. Rosy says

    Absolutely loved the video blogs this week. I’ll be in your class at Buffalo and just can’t wait! From one of your Canadian fans…Rosy

  471. Inspired1 says

    You got the pants, I got the sweater – with only 1 button left. I’ve tried to replace it with something new(er), but I can’t – it’s just sooooo comfortable. Love, love, love the video blogging. Hey, I’ll see you later this month at CKC in Buffalo. Can’t wait. Happy NSD!

  473. Marina says

    Love to see the video blog become a regular feature! You’ve been making my day all week. Great to see your implementation of Photo Freedom too and I love the cute labels on your albums.

  474. Debbi says

    PLEASE make the video blog a regular thing! Thanks for the smiles and laughs all week long – YOU ROCK!

  475. Kirsten says

    I LOVED your video blogging Cathy! Love your witty writing too tho…so mix it up for us addicts a bit, eh? (Yeah, I’m Canadian, didn’t mean to throw the “eh” in there but it typed itself). You rock! Almost as much as NF himself…but is that really rock? pretty mellow stuff…well, I guess you rock more than NF then! But not as much as Green Day…

    Kirsten

  476. Sarah says

    Happy (Inter)national Scrapbook Day! (C’mon, you didn’t think you could keep a day like this all to yourself, did you? And does this mean NZ gets it twice? Once on our Saturday, and then again for your Saturday? I’m thinking the answer is yes… I like it!)

  477. Laura says

    Hello Cathy,

    I have enjoyed this superblog thing that you’ve done and enjoyed seeing your home.

    Interesting painting for the basement….I think it’s some sort of Greek Orthodox religious paiting (dated a Greek guy before getting married to my hot Vietnamese man).

    Not sure what you got in that mystery box…just hoping those “common margins” are in there so that those precious goodies do not get damaged or cluttered up.

    Here’s to hoping I win (since I never ever win)!!!

    Peace,
    Laura

  478. Katherine says

    Love, love, love your blogging. I have especially enjoyed hearing you this week over the videos…you’ve made me smile, often.

    The print you showed is a painting by El Greco. Brings back memories of my years working in art museums…fun times. Ah and the common margins. Definitely a good thing. White space in art too is a great place for the eyes to rest.

  481. Sara says

    I look forward to your blog everyday! Thanks for giving me a little chuckle and putting a smile on my face. Happy Scrapbooking Day!

  482. robin says

    I would love to win the box, but if I don’t I will put on my magic pants and deal with it.

  483. Rhiannon says

    Cathy, you are such an inspiration and so darn funny! I read your blog daily and just crack up. Please keep up the video blogging–it was fantastic!

  484. Amy says

    I loved the video blogs all week too! I had hoped you would do more singing… 😎 The challenges have been great and I intend to do them all tomorrow – on National Scrapbook Day! Woo-hoo!!!

  486. Lisa says

    oh boy, I want the box, gimme gimme. I will so support you on National Scrapbook Day, I will, I will

  487. Lauren says

    The painting is called ‘The Burial of Count Orgaz’, by a greek artist of the Spanish Renaissance named El Greco. Just thought you’d like some background on that piece of artwork in your basement next to your treadmill.

  490. Veronica says

    I have enjoyed your vblogging all week and nearly spat coffee all over my puter when you confirmed that I in fact am not ‘anal retentive’ but just one who embraces common margins… yay!

    You rock!
    Veronica

  491. Heather B says

    okay – had my husband watch with me. so watch out for dog breath and his posts. He wanted to post his comment under the name Neil Finn, but I thought that justr wrong.

    He wanted to give you a biker name, but I stopped him from posting more.

    Anyway, we have both enjoyed your blogging this week. And I think my husband is a closet scrapbooker. Thanks for taking the time to entertain us and be our internet friend.

    And I must say adding a little rum to your video blogs makes them even more entertaining the second time around.

    Enjoy your weekend.

  492. Linda says

    Love your video blog, love the treadmill and yoga ball, I’m sure someone loves your art, and would LOVE the mystery box.

    Pick me! Happy NSD!!

    Linda

  493. Janie says

    You crack me up! Non-treadmill users unite! Happy Scrapbooking Day to you!

  494. Gaye says

    Cathy, thanks for the entertaining week. I have enjoyed sharing my morning cup of coffee with you. Didn’t really appreciate though that you weren’t here to clean off my monitor when spit coffee all over when I heard the “big pants” story! Loved it and you!

  495. Kim Flados says

    Love your video blogs! Keep making them. Happy National Scrapbook Day!

  502. Dawn-Rene says

    More, More MORE!!!! More V-Blogs PLEASE!!!!! You still have not done the bathroom. What about walking the kids to the bus (and their famous bickering). There are so many more places you could take us. You must simply continue!!

  503. bruinbr says

    your blog always brings a smile to my face and I’ve loved the video blogging this week! (I’m certain that I would love that big box of goodies even more though! 😉 Happy NSD!

  504. Linda says

    Doesn’t everyone have magic pants?! Love, love, love the vlogging.

  505. Cathy S says

    I’ve enjoyed these videos all week, and the tour through your house as well.

  506. Barbara says

    Thanks for giving me something fun to watch while I drank my cold caffeine of choice … Dr. Pepper. Looking forward NSD.

  507. Lauren says

    Have loved the video blogging this week. You’ve made me laugh everyday, and those laughs have been so necessary this week!

  508. Melanie says

    Oh, a BIG box of goodies!!! And hey, I thought you were going to post from your bathroom if your laptop got fixed????
    Stay funny and have a wonderful NSD!

  509. Sandra says

    Love the videos. They are the highlight of my say after being with middle school all day.

  510. Suzanne says

    Omg! The highlight of my week, has been watching your vlog everyday. So funny.

  511. TamiV says

    You are hilarious! I vote for video blogs every day! April 28th was my fave for the week! Thanks for the giggles!

  512. Carolyn says

    Did you say the box goes to the 500th post? I might be that person. LOL

    I really hope that you start making the vblogging a regular feature. Your a vblog natural!

    Oh how I wish I could enjoy National Scrapbooking day scrapping to your challenges over at the SS “superblog,” but unfortunately I signed up for a body challenge that starts tomorrow & cost “bucko bucks”, with the hopes that it will get rid of this non-smoking mystery weight that suddenly appeared on my body, the minute I stopped sucking on those fat free(common margin)cancer sticks. Gosh I missed them, not really, just miss fitting into my regular clothes at the moment.

  515. Susan M. says

    Did you really say that you wanted to hump the leg of the guy at the Mac store? And that is precisely why I read/view your blog on a daily basis, because where else would I hear things that like come out of the mouths of my contemporaries. (I teach high school students, and there’s plenty coming out of their mouths that I really wish I hadn’t heard)
    Vive le v-blog! Thanks for all the guffaws!

  516. Jeanette Brooks says

    Yes, Yes!!!! Keep up the video blogging!! Haven’t had this much fun staring at my computer in such a long time!! 😀
    Jeanette

  518. Kim Pitcher says

    Lovin’ your videos Cathy! I thik now I have to go get a better video camera so I can make half decent ones for my blog.

    I’m really looking forward to coming home tomorrow night after a blissful day to discover you picked my name. It’ll be the topper on the cake after going to a digital imaaging and photography show followed by Donna’s class in Toronto. Yep, it’s gonna be a good day. 🙂

  519. Dina says

    Hi Cathy!

    1st time commenter, long time visitor. Love you and would love to win the box!

    Just wondering… do you know why a hotel has not yet been designated for CKC – Phoenix? Thanks!

  520. Kathie Bailey says

    I’m praying to the “Big Pants” god that you continue video blogging. I have enjoyed this week so much! As my mom would say, “You’re a real hoot and a holler”.

  521. Lisa S says

    Can i please just say…I’ve loved you since I first discovered SS and saw your yummy-clean pages!

    I LOVE white space!

  524. Angela says

    Girls with big comfy pants need to stick together – pick me to win!!! I’m a big fan of your simple style and it was fun to see you “in person” for the first time via video. Thanks for a week of smiles.

  532. Erin Glee says

    ooh. pick me! pick me!

    i’m lacking NSD fun this year – and instead spending the weekend with a bus full of high schoolers.

    pity me! and send me goodies! 😉

  538. Lisa says

    Love your video blogs. You are too funny! I have to tell you that I am originally from Buffalo, NY and I am glad to hear that CKC is still kickin’ in upstate New York. If you are up for some drinks and some “Buffalo Night Life”.. ha. ha… I have a few suggestions for ya! I could really use some more scrapping “stuff”… hoping I am the grand winner of your box o’goodies!

  539. AnnB says

    Love the video blog. Love the new banner, but missing the puppy pads SO much. Love the idea of getting the package sent to me. Pick me, please!?

  540. Heather says

    You are amazing! Wish it weren’t such a busy time at school so I could join in the challenges… Summer break’s coming though! Woo Hoo 🙂

    Great challenges, thank you.

  550. Alli says

    oh I love space too, I have done a layout with the photos all next to each other and it is just wrong.. wrong wrong wrong, but I’m not redoing it,

    thank you for the tips, I have been neglecting the room around my journaling

  552. Paula says

    Hi Cathy,
    I am so hoping I’ll get lucky. You know what I mean. I’ve had a great time viewing your video blogs this week.

    Loving you, the video blogs etc…loves it all!! So reminds me when I am teaching my grade 12’s and them I am off on a tangent and remember..oh right I am in front of a class of teenagers right now.. , the sarcasm, the self reflection and raw honesty about oneself and our inner voices being spoke….pick me..I know I am Canadian and our economy is thriving..but give a girl a break here..I am a young new mom who has a new addiction..thats right..same as you and everyone else on here…and for those unclear and thinking about “Celebrity rehab”..I am talking about SCRAPBOOKING!!
    Cheers and Happy NSD. from Vancouver, BC

    Nice box. 😉

    Ooh, add me to the ‘possible winner’ list – looking forward to seeing you in sunny Buffalo at the end of the month!

  598. Zarah says

    You kill me. I get more tummy exercise laughing at your witty blogposts than I do in that gym I so rarely… well… ok – that I _never_ visit…! 😉

    And yes. I admit – I’m a spacist. I never knew it – because I don’t think that word had been invented before… but I am. I’m a crowded scrapper – and THAT’s exactly why you inspire me so much. I learn NEW stuff.
    Thank you for that.

    Happy NSD!

    Loving the video blogs, I would love see it as a weekly feature, maybe a prelude to the weekend?
    Happy NSD!

  628. Christa says

    As always, great job! Not that this has anything to do with the video blogging but your album from “Inspired” inspired me (I just couldn’t think of another word) to make an acrylic album for my best friend’s birthday.

    Enjoyed the video blog – but like the written word too. Now I know how to pronounce “zieslke” (I didn’t spell that right did I but now I can’t see it on the page, God I hate it when someone spells my name wrong)
