You'd think

You'd think that because I'd had the week from hell and was finally feeling better yesterday; that I'd be even better today. WRONG. Today I've woken with a head cold! Woe is me!
On the positive side thou, yesterday we managed to go shopping and I got some much needed scrapping glue. I'm using the Xyron glue tape and managed to go thru 2 reels of the damn stuff yesterday and today. Almost finished Reiley's mini album thou which I'm pretty happy about. Not sure if I like it or not thou. Its not really "trendy" or "commercial". Not like the LO's you see on bragging forums or magazine sites... not really print worthy. But I kinda like it. Its mine. Its not flowery or ribbony or purely the arrangement of pre-made embellishments and rub-ons. Might as well just buy page ploppers really. Its mine with hand made stuff, minimal embellies and hand written journalling. I tried some new techniques on it too which is nice. Nothing too adventurous. I got some chipboard letters so painting and sanding has been quite fun. Also tried making my own from cardboard and actually got some success considering I was using scissors and not a cutting system. Next I move on to Jesse's mini album. His theme is green which will be trying because I NEVER scrap with green. But I didnt want to make it blue because Reiley's is blue. Ruby's of course will be pink (and brown). I wanted Rubes to have a red one, but not real good with red LO's. Looks too cheap IMO.
Anyway, must post b4 Rubes tries to "help" and I lose the post
Ciao!
