FINALLY!!

The video below explains exactly where I have been and what I have been doing the past several days . . .

When I discovered (much to my SHOCK!) Smiley from millan.net that I could submit a project for professional printing/binding using Stampin' Up's new My Design Studio software and receive a little discount ('cause I'm a demo AND 'cause they are letting us do this ONE time in order to promote the software) I was a little flummoxed (GOOD word!)!! It took a bit for it to sink in, though, that the deadline for this offer was September 30!! I have been SOOOO out of the loop since taking our Europe trip that I have practically MISSED the month of September!!

Anywho . . . I put my back into it and this is what I came up with (just finished this baby last night!). THIRTY stinkin' scrapbook pages in just over FIVE days!! ZOINKS!! Smiley from millan.net The BEST part about it is that I don't have a SINGLE scrap of paper, ribbon or ANYthing to clean up! HUZZAH!!

The only unfortunate thing is that there is no way to do a two-page-at-a-time slideshow, and this would be even MORE impressive if you could see the two-page layouts together!! Sigh . . . guess ya can't have EVERYthing!!

Enjoy!!

(PS - I know it looks like I goofed and left the last page blank . . . no worries! It is actually the back cover to my scrapbook!)

AND since I have been asked a few times, the song playing in the background is "Better Together" by Jack Johnson. Just LOVE that man!!

  1. That is fabulous! To be honest, I never thought I would use MDS to publish a book because of the cost (except for a gift), but you have proved me wrong. Your book will be priceless!!!!! I wish I could see it when you get it back....it will be beautiful!!
    Thanks for sharing. :)

  16. Hi Wendy, (Kathy's friend again) This scrapbook came out really nice. Did you add any embellishments after the pages were done? The buttons, ribbons, and butterflies look so real!
