So...it's time for another Paperthreads BLOG HOP.....and I'm sneaking on here...because Jenette isn't around today.....and I thought..heck....if she isn't here...and I have the secret passwords, I can go in and do what I want, right???

So...you ask, where is my partner in crime?? Well, she is no where tooooo exotic! In fact, she is sitting at home, on her tooshie, recovering from a surgery she had a week ago! She can't lay down, she can't lift anything...and she is in quite a bit of pain and discomfort...but she is on the road to healing, and in another week or two she will be back to her wild and crazy self!!

IN the meantime, I just KNEW she wouldn't want to miss out on all the fun!!

So...since she couldn't do a free file in the store for you...and her files are on sale today....what I thought is, I'd just set up a coupon in the store, and you can go in and get one file of your choice (up to a $2 value - and since she is having a sale, that means the actual price of the file can be valued at almost $4....up to $2 sale price!!)

This coupon is valid until MIDNIGHT EST today only!!

Add the item to your cart, and use this code at checkout!

aka - the one who can sneak onto others blogs and give things away!

any takers for my FLU bug yet. LOL---can't blame ya! I would run the other way too. It is soooooooooooo nasty. DIL called yesterday and said that they (the doctors) had just confirmed that Jake (gs) that came for visit this past weekend does have the H1N1 flu. How scary! He called me last night to see how I was feeling, unfortunately I was on the other phone, so he left me this message: "Nana, this is Jake. Just wanted to say thanks for giving me the flu." Then he laughed and said; "Just kidding, NANA. Hope you are feeling better." LOL...What a silly goose! I called him back and told him that he and his mom gave it to me.

Today is an extra special day at Paperthreads, my fellow designer and dear sweet friend Shirley has turned another year OLDER today. Be sure to stop by Shirley's blog or Paperthreads to wish her a "Happy Birthday". Oh and I just noticed that she has a birthday FREEBIE for you and she is having a SALE. OMG---what better two words go together then that--FREEBIE and SALE in the same sentence. Waa hooooo!

Ok, better end cause my meds are kicking in.

Hope you have a wonderful day!

the FLU bug? YUCK....well went to the doctors yesterday and was tested for the flu and of course just my luck it came back positive. Haven't felt good since Sunday and just kept getting worse. Tuesday was a really bad day and night and finally hubby said that I had to go. When I woke up I felt like 2 mack trucks had collided with my body and my throat was on major fire, ear killing me and a major major headache. My glands were so swollen. Eeeeewwwww...that swabbie thing that they do up both nostrils is the pits. Felt like they were gonna poke out my eyes. It didn't really hurt----just a real bad tickle. Then you sneeze a gazillion times after that. Wait 11 minutes for the results. Walked out with a prescription for Tamiflu and orders to drink, drink, drink and rest, rest, rest.

What really sucks is that I have been so excited about not being sick since I had my surgery 2 years ago. Now I have been sick twice in a month and half. Guess I'm making up for lost time. Hopefully when I'm over this----this will be it.

When my grandkids and DIL came this past weekend they went home sick. DIL hasn't worked all week and the school called for her to pick up Jake around lunchtime yesterday. His fever was 103. Poor baby. He's scheduled to go into the doctors this morning.

Any way---enough blah blah about me. Will be better soon. Sure does put a hamper on your plans though. I had a lot of things giong on this week that's not going to get done. Will play catch up this weekend.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day and wash, wash, wash those hands.

members have been working away. One of the "kewl" perks of being a designer is seeing everyones different takes on the files you create. Here are some that Debbie Wright and Sue Shaff have recently done. By clicking on the images or file name it will take you directly where they are located in my store.

FALL SPLENDOR



We all know by now just how much Sue loves to scrap those photos of her darling GS-Clay. Well this l/o is no different! Sue has said it better than I could. She states: "Jenette's Fall Splendor just seems to capture the essence of autumn. Pumpkins, corn stalks, falling leaves...the whole kit and caboodle!" I, like Sue just love the beauty that fall brings into our lives this time of year. I feel that she totally showed that in this l/o.


SPOOKTACULAR FACES



I think Sue definately was thinking outside the box when she created this decoration for her scarecrow. Here, Sue used her pen tool to draw the faces, cut then out, colored them in and taped them together so that she could place them around the bottom base of her scarecrow fall decorations.

Thank You



When I designed this card, I wasn't thinking about Christmas. However Debbie was when she made her version of the card. WOW--I think her choice of color combiations are gorgeous. She took a simple card and made it elegant.

Daisy Frame



Debbie stole my heart on this one!

Talk about perfect file....if you look closely you can see her Spinone Italiano named Maggie sniffing the daisies. (great pose) She used chalks and embossing on the flowers and yellow stickles in the daisy centers of the frame.

Great job as always ladies!

Jenette

everyone had a wonderful weekend. Our visit with the GKs and DIL was enjoyable as always. Everyone was sick and has left behind the cootie bug which I of course picked up.

Hopefully I can get back on track today.

Jenette

almost here. My GKs and DIL are coming for a visit. YEAH!!!! I always look forward to seeing my little munchkins. Oh and my DIL too. She's a sweetie.

I have been busy trying to reorganize my crop room area. Geesh...talk about a lot of stuff. I could easily open up a scrapbook/craft store and not have to purchase a thing to sale. Just use what I have in my stash. I have come to the conclusion that I am definately a "collector" at this point and not a user. LOL

I was thinking that I need to come up with some kewl contests and give some of my stash goodies away as a prizes. How about we start right now? The first 10 people to email me with some contest ideas will received a goodie bag. It will be a hodge podge of goodies that I will put together. THEN I will have a drawing for a "bigger" prize. That winner will be chosen from all the entry ideas. I must receive your emailed ideas by this Sunday, the 18th by midnight EST time. Winners will be announced on Monday. For my over the pond friends, do to postage cost your prize will be your choice of 3 files from a list.

Please email me at: jcarson182@sc.rr.com and be sure to place in the SUBJECT LINE: Contest Ideas.

Have a great day!
