Its Sad

Its sad but true that some folks add you as friend or become a fan soley to get your vote for their pages. It doesn't matter if they like your work or even seen your work. They simply want your vote. If you keep check of who votes for your work you will find a group that consistantly DO NOT vote.
The unfair thing is they get extra votes from you and give nothing back. I have seen some beautiful work here that has low votes and some work that is less than good with a ton of votes. A lot of folks put their hearts into their work. They are not about votes but about the love they put into their pages. That love should be rewarded.
Then there are the nasty ones who low vote either out of jealousy for the talent or just meaness. When someone has put their heart into their work this is hurtful and unfair.
This is a community to share memories, love and laughter. To make friends and share the talent so many people from all over the world have. So share the love and the appreciation for what someone has done.
I keep track of who votes for me. The ones who consistantly don't ..I do not vote for them. It is not fair to take my vote and not vote in return. I don't like being used. So spread the joy of scrapbooking and the love of art not the need to win.
Have a great day all :)

Blahhhh

I had a bad nights sleep and am feeling blah. Out of sorts and tired. I hate when this happens.
I added 2 new pages to my scrapbook. I cleaned out my cache files, used images and saved a lot to CD to free up space and memory.
PSP has been acting up...hope the program is not messing up. Right now can't afford to replace it. Well enough rambling..have a great day.

Nov. 28th

I did not sleep well last night. I am not sure why but the doctor gave me a prescription for some sleeping pills. I hate to take pills, especially sleeping pills. Yet I know I can't keep spending nights like I have the last 2 weeks.
I have been making elements in PSP 8 but not sure what format to save it in. If I use png it merges it all together yet I know most use Photoshop and not PSP which keeps the layers seperate.
I made baby elements in pink and blue and will make some backgrounds to go with them. I also made some new tags and ribbons. I am not sure how good they are. I think they are ok til I come here and see the awesome work by others. Then I am not so sure.
I am going to work in PSP again today and see what I come up with. Have a geat day.

ITS GAME DAY

Its Saturday and its also game day. The Missouri and Kansas College game. This is the biggest game of the year and will have 80,000 people in attendance. Its all anyone talks about.
I have been scrapping...making elements etc. Some I am happy with and some....well kinda blah. Been having a few problems with my PSP 8...froze one me. But I posted a scrap of hubbys baby pics...he was cute lol.
Ever had a pic you want to scrap and can't? No matter what you do it doesn't seem right? That happened to me today. Great pic and couldn't scrap it.....but FINALLY I did...think its ok but I am leaving it alone lol.
Scrapping is great to do on a cold day...its freezing here...and it keeps me occupied waiting for THE game lol.

Stuffed!!!!

I hope everyone has had a great Thanksgiving. My husband made thanksgiving dinner. (He is a great cook and loves to make holiday meals.) It was soooooo good.....I ate too much!! I may not eat for a week lol. He makes great stuffing and I eat too much of it. Sigh.....now comes Christmas....oh my waistline!!!!!
I have been scrapping...making elements and pages and stuff. I am hooked since I joined Flair. Christmas is a great time to get pics for scrapping.
The temps really dropped here...was 25 degrees last night...brrrrrr. I love the cold and I want it to snow but so far just rain.
I have my tree up...not fully decorated yet. The cats are having fun with this lol. They try to catch the blinking lights. I suppose I should get upset with them for messing up the tree but I think its funny. ( hubby does'nt lol.) They are just being cats.....no harm done.
Well I think I will get busy scrapping and cleaning. Takes longer but both get done lol. Have a great day...God Bless.

Newbie

I just joined ScrapbookFlair today. I hope to be posting soon. I love to scrapbook about anything. As I have no kids I have lots of free time and to fill it in I scrap. Here in Southern Illinois it is windy but warm and the leaves are falling off the trees. The yard looks like a leaf explosion! It is so pretty though. Well I am off to make something lol.
