Don't be jealous! Promise me you will not. I am going on a whole weekend (Friday morning - Sunday late afternoon) Scrapbooking Retreat. Some of you might be thinking that this would be heavenly, but I am a little ill-prepared. My biggest problem is that I don't scrapbook or haven't in several years. My son who is eight has a first year scrapbook and my daughter who is six has been a little neglected. So, in lieu of that. . .
I have gone digital. I will miss the hours of cutting, pasting and pop dotting, but I have to be efficient. This weekend I will devote my time to Blurb. Blurb is a site where you can import (not upload, which is great) your pictures to make a scrapbook. Another alternative is that you can make cookbooks from your favorite recipes or even make a book out of your blog. It is a really cool site. I imported about 4,000 pictures the other night which took about 1.5 hours to do (meaning: finding, picking and importing pics). That is a huge time-saver in light of the hours upon hours it has taken on other sites like shutterfly and snapfish. I can't wait to tell you how it turns out and all of the details.
Another thing is that if anyone knows how to auto-pilot blogspot I would be extremely indebted to you. I want to be loyal to my readership, but I am a big blog dummy when it comes to techy stuff. So, if you know how to make posts happen when you are not actually around I would love to find this information out for the future.
Have a great clappy, scrappy weekend!

Sounds like fun! Let me know how it goes! I may be interested in giving it a try as well. I understand what you mean about being efficient! Keep us posted!
I know how to autopilot. :-)
Ooo, that's great! I'll have to check blurb out. There's another one - I haven't actually tried it (other than goofing around a bit), but it looks really neat - called Scrapblog (http://scrapblog.com/) Might be worth checking it out.
Sounds cool. I'm so falling behind in my scrapping since my second son was born, five months ago. I still hope to catch up someday!!!
Great! i want to try too. i will make it up for that cool stuff after we take the seminar on Covenant Marriage.
