I'm a WoW Widow...

My darling Mr Darcy and The Boy play World of Warcraft together. The new expansion pack came out Wednesday night at midnight... Of course The Boy stood in line at Gamestop to buy their copies. The Boy stayed up all night installing both on to the their computers. My darling Mr Darcy took Friday off as a personal day in order to play the new game. After staying up all night he's resting now but I'm sure he'll be kicking me off the computer any time now. So since I'm a WoW widow I'm off to meet a friend for coffee then on to another friend's scrapbook store to play with paper *smiles* Are you a WoW widow too? Or maybe you're a golf widow or NASCAR widow or Football widow? what do you do when your menfolk are completely absorbed into their games/hobbies?

I pimped my 'dex! (what?)

I made this project awhile back but thought I'd share... I know it's been all over the blogs and scrapping/stamping websites, I'm not claiming credit *smiles*

This is my roladex that I prettified with some Basic Grey paper and embellies. I started by making a template of the roladex itself so I'd have pattern to cut the scrapbook paper. I just simply laid it on it's side and traced around it, cut it out and checked for fit then used that to trace around onto my scrapbook paper. Oh the wonders of Modge Podge...

Here's the individual divider cards, did the same thing with them as I did the body, just traced around a card to make a template. The colors went well with my gold and red living room. Imagine all the possible applications for this project... perhaps a mini recipe holder for the kitchen? birthday and important date keeper? business card holder? favorite website bookmarker? lol I'm sure someone could morph this into something clever.
