16, 2007 If you didn't notice on my Novmber 2nd post I am encouraging a little giveaway, and having one of my own. If you have not yet signed-up to win what I am giving be sure to comment here or on on my last Friday for Friends post. Here is a couple pics of the altered items that are included in my giveaway from Joyous Creations.
November 2, 2007 Okay ladies. I know you haven't heard from me in a while... I am still here and very glad some of you still come to visit me, THANK YOU! :o)
For my GIVEAWAY this time I will chose 2 winners. Each winner will be able to chose $10 in product from the Inventory list on my post from October 18th... Plus you will receive a handmade altered item from Joyous Creations. Please leave a comment on this post to enter. The winner will be chosen Thanksgiving Day. Non-bloggers welcome. God Bless.
October 12, 2007 My hope is that this will help more than one of you, but I got the idea from Rebecca (The not so desperate housewife) who commented asking how I decide the size of my photos, and if I already know my layout design before I choose sizes. Here is the method to my madness Becca... I decide on my picture sizing by picking my main "favorite", a family shot, or the best of the bunch to make it a 8x10 or 5x7, sometimes I pick two. Then the "others" end up being smaller sizes but usually all something similar like 2x2's, 4x3's, or some of both. The smaller ones give me more choices in photos also because they could be pictures that wouldn't look good huge or "normal' size (4x6) anyway, like a close-up on my daughter's head or a blurry smiley one of my son, you get my drift? These are the steps I follow that work for me...

April 13, 2007 Today's Friday for Friends is a Party (in the makings). It will be the first blog party I have ever hosted, and since Scrapping Servant is only 2 months old I really need your help getting the invitations out :o) Take a look at the Party Page for more information.
April 6, 2007 JBrooke7 and her Five Little Monkeys :o) Whom I just stumbled upon yesterday after visiting TopMama.com. First of all, I am proud of you for having five kiddos... kudos to you! And now, what am I going to do for you this Friday? Well, I loved your post with little Noelle scooting tummy up, and thought I would take a video for you of what my son just started doing today! He only scoots, he doesn't crawl, but he is already pulling himself up to stand against the couch! :o)
March 30, 2007 On Fridays I am going to think of something I can do for someone else, and share it with everyone here. Today I was totally excited to get my comment links actually working like everyone else's do. And not too long after they gotta workin' I received a message from Karla saying that she loved the idea of tearing photos... well, this friday is for her........ Karla, I wanted to share another layout with you to encourage you in the tearing of your photos. I know it is a scary thing, but only at first, after you do it you will realize it is a great and easy time saver. Here I tore the edges then inked them black for more of a timeless distressed look to go with the wrought iron in the photos. Suggestions: Practice both tearing and inking on a "junk" photo first to get the feel of the photo paper opposed to regular paper. If you are inking your photos edges, be sure to leave time to let them dry so the ink does not get all over the place. And if you have never torn before follow my lead... start at the top right corner (top left I think if you are left handed) and work your way down slowly, always tearing towards yourself. Have fun. I gotta run!
