Just sharing the brag bag I won in one of the challenges in the Phil. Digiscrappers forum.
Thanks to Abbie for hosting the challenge.
And here’s my boy modelling the bag :D.
Two more pics of the boy:
Enjoying mommy’s spaghetti. Look closely, he’s wearing a hairclip.

**scrap-talk, non-scrappers might get bored reading this :D**
Finally, organization of my scrap materials is done. Oh well, I don’t have much stuff to begin with. Most of my materials are freebies, few were purchased during sale periods. National Scrapbooking Day is fast approaching and I’m still not sure if I can buy new scrap materials :(. Sigh…
Right now, I’m trying to organize my fonts. I do have a lot of fonts. And I’m pretty sure I have a lot of duplicates. I have several folders for my fonts. The folders are named after the site from which the font was downloaded, so that explains the duplicates. Then under each folder, the fonts are grouped in different categories like Fancy (or Italic fonts), Curly (and Cute fonts. Fonts that I love.), Dings (purely images, no actual fonts), Dingfonts (fonts with images), Handwriting, Simple (regular fonts), Fat (Bold and Outlined fonts), Typewriter fonts, Stamped fonts, Stenciled fonts, and Script. OC ba? I just thought this will make it easier for me to look for a particular font even if I’m not using any font organization software. And the font goes to its respective folder when I download it, so it doesn’t take much effort.
Anyway, here are some font sites for you…

So I was organizing my scrap materials. I was using the other computer (which is actually a laptop, btw. yes, finally, no more sharing!), so I was organizing my stuff on a shared drive. When I went back to the pc, I noticed that the categorized items were pointing to those on the shared drive, not on the actual location. So when the sharing is removed, the categorized items will have nowhere to refer to. My only consolation is that I haven’t organized that much items. So I went back to using the pc. And then I accidentally deleted the categorized items. I was thinking that it will just remove the tagging, but I was wrong, it deleted the actual files. And they are nowhere to be found on the recycle bin. I wasn’t that worried since these are just previews of brushes I downloaded, so I thought I’ll just get the previews from their sites again. But I did download a free undelete program and I was able to recover most of the deleted files. Since I wasn’t able to recover the other previews, I visited the brush sites again. And this is where I got sidetracked with my organization. I got preoccupied with downloading brushes. I especially like the swirls, stains, ink spills, paint splatters and florals.
Here are some of the sites:

I haven’t use much of the brushes I downloaded so I’m not sure which has better brushes.

A scrap-related post, after a very long while…
No, I don’t have a layout to share. But I’m going to get there, when I’m done organizing my supplies. I used to use ACDSee before but then it gave up on me. I’m guessing the database got corrupted. And it happened after I finished organizing my supplies. Nakakapikon! So I switched to Picasa. And now, I’m back to ACDSee. Wish me luck that it won’t give up on me this time. I’m referring to this for my categories. Mine is not as comprehensive though.
