Isn’t my mum pretty?

Isn’t my mum pretty?

All the photos have been scanned and they are safely backed up. The originals are on their way back to their owners. Many photos were damaged – bent, creased, torn and in some instances cut. There were heaps of photos of my parents when they were young and lots of me and some of my...

Blast from the past

25 April 2008
By Chantilly Lace

I’ve just had the most incredible experience! My brother arrived for a visit today. I don’t see him often, he lives a million miles away from me, but that’s not what I’m on about. I love him dearly, don’t get me wrong. It’s what he brought me that is the important bit. My mum and dad are...

some TLC

I had a manicure and pedicure today. It feels and looks good. It took far to long to have it done and on the way out, I managed to spoil the nail polish so it had to be redone. My new computer arrived (at the office) today and I brought it home. I was very...

aaargh… computers!

It’s just as well I ordered the new Dell on Friday because one of the work computers failed today. We have spare ones, but it disrupts things. I’ll be spending the next few days with my IT cap on. It is only one computer but it’s not something that I wanted to replace just now or...

the good stuff first

I ordered a new Dell computer for home on Friday to replace my home PC. Huge RAM and huge screen and video card. It should keep me happy for a while. The PC I have  now is not keeping up with Photoshop and Paintshop so it’s going to go to work and one of my...

Baby Jessie

When I was scanning the photos last week, I came across some photos of our German Shepherd Jessie when she was a puppy. She looks really cute as a little puppy, but as she got older, she was so out of proportion with gigantic ears and paws for the longest time until she grew...

Organising scrapping supplies

13 April 2008
By Chantilly Lace

One of the most difficult things I’ve had to do is to organise my ditgital scrapping supplies. The quantity of them grew at a phenomenal rate and pretty soon, I had an explosion of files and folders which I needed to search through, browse and protect with regular backups. Fortunately, I have reviewed in the...

Scrapbook titles ideas

7 April 2008
By Chantilly Lace

I don’t know about anyone else, but sometimes I have problems giving my scrapbook pages a title. I’m fine with the layout, I’m comfortable with the journaling, I even have a whitty quote, but do you think I can think of an appropriate title? I had that problem today. So I googled and found a couple...

Pink Doodle Frame freebie

I’ve spent the day scanning photos. Over 1,000 of them. I don’t think I could have done it in one day without a document feeder. Now I don’t know what to do with the photos that I pulled out of albums. Should I put them back or put them in the photo box for safe...
