Gotta turn this day around with a giveaway…

05.29.08

Boy.

Bad day.  The hard drive died on my baby.  Boogers.  I love love love my MacBook Pro.  Love it.  But I attract bad luck with stuff like this.  Thankfully, Apple has the best customer service in the world and they are saving me.  Will get the hard drive replaced tomorrow.  Thank goodness!

But since that occupied my day, I didn't get any creating done.  So let's do a giveaway instead. :)  This RAK is for a copy of the Designing With Recipe book…

Just leave a comment here by Friday night at 11:59pmPST telling me what your favorite new scrapbooking goodie is.  I feel like I haven't bought anything new in ages and need to do a bit of online shopping. Nothing is better than retail therapy, huh? 🙂

Oh, and please go backup your computer.  🙂

  1. I recently became a Stampin Up demonstrator so I would have to say my new favorite goodies are my SU markers, cardstock & rubber stamps. Their items are very high-quality!
    I would love a chance to win this book. The DW books and calendars are a great resource and are very inspiring! I’ve been an admirer of yours for a very long time!! You’re amazing! Thanks – Sharon

  4. I just bought some Copic markers and I’m loving them, although I need a lot of practice to match the blending I see on some of the blogs! Tomorrow I’m headed to CKC Buffalo and top on my list is the Liberty line of Scenic Route.

    Thanks again!

  9. Sorry to hear about your hard drive, Jen. Thanks for the reminder to back mine up. My new favorite product is the Xyron create a label maker. I use it to put a sticky backing on my letters I die cut with my Cuttlebug. No more glue smearing while trying to lay out my title.

    I also like to cut out nice pictures from my decorative paper and make them into stickers for my grandchildren. They really like their stickers.
    Thanks for your daily email.

  15. I stumbled onto your blog somehow and I love it! My favorite thing right now sounds a lot like what others are liking. The Martha Stewart border punches and the butterfly punch. I’m addicted to them, so I’m going to Michael’s tomorrow to see what I can add to my collection!

  16. Jennifer, I’m sorry to hear about your computer. After reading horror stories on the message boards about people losing years of photos, I went out to get an external hard drive, just in case. It’s always best to be safe than sorry.

    As for my new tool, is the Bazzill templates for stitching. I love the look on pages, so when I finally found a couple of templates, I had to pick them up. Now, if only I could stop shopping and actually start to use everything that I purchase, I’ll be all set to go. LOL

  19. I’d have to say my new favourite scrapping goody is the Bind-It-All. This wonderful tool has opened so many avenues for my obsession with mini books! I’m sure that the Autumn Leaves book would add so much to my art!!

  26. Hi Jennifer, my new favorite goodie is Petaloo’s dahlia flowers. I got the brown, fuschia and green combination and they are so beautiful.

  28. Sorry about your harddrive – it is the worst thing, when it happens! 🙁

    My fave new scrappy goodie has to be Qk’s mademoiselle… Not only is the font super FAB but that purse actually saved my outfit on a family get-together I was dreading, and got me a lot of compliments for my cute purse…! *smiles*

  30. Oh my goodness! I’m sooooooo sorry to hear about the crash! We love our MacBook & PowerBook at our house, too! I’d be seriously devistated if ours crashed. Thank goodness my husband works in data storage and backs ours up continuously… I hope you didn’t lose too much 🙁 Gotta love Apple for coming through for you!

    I have so many favorite scrapbooking goodies, but lately I’ve really been into stamping on my pages. I am addicted to the heroarts blog and it’s how I came across your site! I’m so thankful I did, too! You’re a true inspiration for me.

  31. I know this is late, but I just wanted to send my condolences for the ol’ hard drive. So glad that it will be taken care of quickly!

    My latest scrapping goodie? Definitely my Cricut. Ever since I got mine back in Feb., I use it on *every single page*… can’t buy the different carts fast enough! LOL But I think you already have one of those, don’t you? 🙂

  35. Picking a favorite is kinda like picking a favorite child! I’m really loving the versatility of the Nestabilities Dies right now and the Cuttlebug embossing folders. I always love Thickers letters and chipboard of any kind.

  36. I haven’t bought too much lately, but I did get the Fiskars Threading water punch and have used it quite a bit already. I’m dying to try the Gamsol with my prismacolors after watching your video on that.

  38. Well, i am not sure mine is such a goodie, but I am trying to see if I can use leftover negative space in my scrapbookinq when I cut shapes out. They make cool embellishment or frames for things. For retail therapy I head to doodlebug…they have great bling and doo-dads…paper and stickers are awesome. Have fun shopping!
