A new addiction

Oh crap. I am in serious trouble. Patrick bought a new printer that is really nice. And it came with a really nice photo printer thingy. (Which I figured out already!! I KNOW. I'm amazed, too.) Aaaannnnddd, it came with a scrapbooking program... which I've been on for over 2 hours... at 2:30 a.m..... and I CAN. NOT. STOP.


Let's see if I can load them here, to show off a bit...


Hmmm. Guess not. I will figure it out, eventually. Trust me, in that I spent WAY too much time picking out just the right baubles and crap to insert here and there... This may take over scrapbooking as I know it! Well, maybe not. I still do enjoy the feel of the paper in my hands, the crunch of the cutter going through the photos and the handwritten stories that I put into their books. But I may add these pages as bonuses, or just make a whole new scrapbook for MYSELF, as the other ones are for the kids to take with them as they get older... Hmmm.... How expensive is the whole printer cartridge thing, anyway?


Oh! And I am messing around with the new printer! I just printed out photos that I had only had on the computer from emails and such and I now have hard copies!! I am in HEAVEN over this!! And I made a pic of Pat and Rinny into Sepia toned, and putzed around with a Polaroid of me when I was 2 weeks old,

and I have been having way too much fun all by myself. Oh, and I'm drinking Tequila Rose on the rocks, all alone... WOOOHOOOO!!!! Saturday night never knew what it was missing, baby!!

You are so funny!!

Digital scrapbooking has its perks too... you can do everything *perfectly* and have infinite supplies, oh and no mess!!

But I agree, paper feels better :)

Ah, adult life - where our idea of a really fun Saturday night becomes SCRAPBOOKING and SOME WINE! Sounds great to me...

I have GOT to get me one of those things. Saturdays nights have been way too dull around my house.

i have not tried the digital scrapbooking yet, I am still too attached to the actual hands on kind. but otherwise, sounds like my kinda night.

I'm not a scrapbooker, but did find some digital scrapbooking sites to use for the new look of my blog. If you get into the digital stuff more, let me know. There are lots of sites with tons of really cute free stuff!

Miss Hope said...

Oh, man, you've talked me into getting one of those toys to play with photos and such.

And a bottle of wine to go with it.

Just exactly how much of that Tequilla rose did you drink before posting this?? LOL.

The real problem is that ink cartridges cost more than anything you could buy for a paper scrapbook.
