Pricebook - Maya Road

Thursday's project (a day late...)

This project was inspired by a “What are your best money saving tips” thread, and a member's response about the preparation of a price book, to keep in your purse and keep track of what the prices are at different places for your favorite products, so “you’ll know at a glance whether you’re getting a deal” at lifetimemoments.

Like many, my food and household bills have gone through the roof in the past few weeks. With $4/gas in a city that has a very poor mass transportation system, I am looking for ways to adjust to our new financial reality. What a great idea the price book was. And the Maya Road sheer album was perfect. It fits perfectly in my purse and because it is plastic and not cardboard, it will stand up to the repeated jostling and handling.

To get detailed pictures and instructions, as well as the PDF for the template for the insert tables, please see lifetimemoments newsletter (click here). TFL! Wendy

Unity Stamp storage

I thought I'd share how I store my Unity Stamp Company stamps. They are so lovely and THIN... I can get a ton into a regular little basket. This is my stamping corner. On the wall my woodmounts are stacked on leftover moulding we had from when we did the floors when we first moved in. I need to paint that wall. But I was too impatient to get into my stash when we moved. :)

Emmeline

I had seen these aprons in stores and wanted one so - but they ran upwards of $80, and alas, that wasn't for me.

Then, one day blog surfing, I came across a link to an awesome pattern for it:

Emmeline apron pattern

And I am thrilled that it came out sooo nice! I'm a new sewer, and so I was nervous, using 40% off fabric from Joanne's just in case it came out looking totally home-made and I'd have to trash it (or put it into the "schlump around the house" pile). I am so thrilled at how it turned out! and doesn't look 40% off!! It was slow go and I ripped out and redid a few seams here and there - but I really do love it..... What do you think?

It's NSD Crop Weekend at Lifetime Moments!

Its National Scrapbooking Day! And Lifetime Moments (www.lifetimemoments.com) is hosting a weekend crop that goes live at noon, eastern time (a little more than a 1/2 hour!!)

Head on over for a lot of fun classes, challenges and prizes.

Here's my class for the weekend - a father's day year in review album - just in case you are interested...

Unity Stamp Company goes live!!

Yep! Its the day! The Unity Stamp Company kits are live!! If you cannot find it in your local stores or on the internet (where we think first stop purchases should always be - to support your favorite retailer...), please visit Unity's site and order direct.

Its National Scrapbooking Day this weekend, so please keep checking back for more ideas throughout the weekend!!
