I think I am making progress

I couldn't take it anymore. I finally just went and sat down at the PC simply to use Photoshop and Illustrator. Let me tell you I was suffering from serious withdraw! I was up until 2:45AM this morning as a result. BUT in all fairness. . . I did get something done while working way into the wee hours of the morning. Yay! I even got my MacBook Pro backed up to the backup drive (I think), so hopefully soon I will have Windows installed on there and can have Photoshop back again (at least until I can afford the CS3 suite).

I'll add the rest as I get them done today. I am working diligently!!! I hope to have them all done today.

Things I am thinking about doing. . .

I really need to get on the ball and get some gifts done.

Things I am thinking about doing:

  • Shutterfly book for my grandmother with the pictures from the family reunion in July. Nothing fancy, just slap the pictures in.

  • CD Case calendars with big pictures! I want it to be quick and mass reproduce-able. So, that meas I need to get my camera out and get the kids in at least matching shirts and shoot a TON of pictures. I mean, I need 12 pictures of the 3 of them together. I think it will be fun.

  • Custom calendars would be nice too. Little bit more work, but fun.

  • Travel Mugs? Design the inserts.

  • Checkbook Calendars. I found them for $1 at Michaels. I want to design covers for them for people.


There are things that are not scrapbook related that I want to try and accomplish. Two of the kids have asked for sweaters. *shrug* We live in Texas for crying out loud! But I do have a knitting machine so sweaters shouldn't be too difficult, right? We'll see. I also want to try and make a quilt or two.
