Freebie FRIDAY!!!

Thank goodness it is FRIDAY!!!!! (Ok - here's the truth of the matter... when hubby is deployed since I work from home all the days run together. I really don't know Monday from Wednesday most of the times.... BUT I do know when it is Friday cause my favorite Radio Station plays this song!!! So sad - I know.... but so TRUE!!!) So for all of you that are happy it is FRIDAY - this one is for you!!!

Then the other GREAT thing about Friday is it is FREEBIE FRIDAY here at Beloved Keepsakes! (Now I bet if we were honest - the majority of you are here just because of FREEBIE FRIDAY!! And hey - that's A OKAY!!!)

Today's file is kind of simple but IMHO very cute! I was inspired by all the forums that host monthly BINGO games (including Paperthreads and Chris's Forum)! And that got me to thinking about all the age groups that actually play BINGO! I mean when I was a kid I LOVED this game in school! As adults we play it on the forums for the great prizes, my hubby's National Guard unit actually played BINGO for the door prizes at the Christmas party this past year. You always hear about the BINGO games at the Sr. Citizens groups.... and I have to admit that there is actually a BINGO hall right across the GA/SC State line... and when I was single we would go over there on Saturday nights and play! Hey - they had $1 draft and I DID win $500 one night!!!! Bahahaha!!!!

So hopefully you will find this Friday Freebie useful!!! (Please NOTE - This file comes complete with everything you see in the photo along with the letter B,I,N,G,O and the numbers 1 though 9 so you can make your own bingo call balls!)

As always this file is terms restricted and is governed by my TOU. If you do not have a copy of my TOU, please download them from HERE!

Sorry file is no longer available! It will be for sale soon at Paperthreads.

Speaking of which - don't forget that my 35% off sale is in progress right NOW! And will be going on until Midnight (Eastern) Sunday night!!!

And finally - please do not forget about the Scrapbooking, Cards and More membership that I am hosting!! I have some great files planned and ready to go for all my members! It is only $10 for 20+ files!!! That's an AWESOME DEAL!

Hope you have an AWESOME weekend and I will catch you next week!

Until Next Time!

Are you bored? - UPDATED!!!

WE HAVE A WINNER *** WE HAVE A WINNER*** WE HAVE A WINNER

Congratulations Nikki!!!! You are the Winner!!!! (Well actually I AM THE WINNER as the problem is solved!!!

This is what Nikki said:

You are missing the following files from the slide show on your blog:

LM00053 Bubble Bath
LM00054 Geochacher
LM00055 Good Morning Sunshine
LM00062 You Wish
LM00078 Girls Can' What
LM00079 Eat Sleep Hunt
LM00080 Great White Hunter
LM00122 Hockey Coach

I know there are 8 files listed above and you said you were only missing 6 but I found one more problem that explains this. You have two files on the slide show that are not in you store (I think). They are "Hunting Items" and "Naughty or Nice".

Therefor you have 2 pictures of files that are not in the store--so you really have 247 files and only 239 pictures so that leaves you with extra pictures missing from you slide show.

Thus Nikki will receive EIGHT of my FILES of her choice and my never ending gratitude for figuring this out!!!! Thanks AGAIN!!!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Do you feel like a challenge??? Let me warn you ahead of time that this one may take a while.... but it would be worth it in the end!!!

So here's the deal... you know I have been working to give this blog a new "updo" or look right?!?!? Well in the process I am trying to make sure I update all my information and get everything current.

Well.... for the past two hours I have been revamping my slide show over on the left hand side. And I have it almost done.... except... On the slide show there are 239 photos. BUT I have 245 designs available at Paperthreads. Hence, I am missing SIX photos on my slide show!!! And I have to tell you I have looked at this thing until my eyes are crossed (Originally I was missing 42 designs!!!)

So here is mission should you choose to accept it.... The first person who emails me and tells me which six designs are missing from the slide show - will get SIX DESIGNS of their CHOICE!!! And to make it even easier for you.... (mainly cause I don't want to responsible for anyone else having crossed eyes, bahahaha) I am going to give you a list of all my designs to help you out!!!! (SWEET!!) So to download the list - click HERE! (It is just a simple text doc so everyone should be able to access it!)

As for me... I am going to get back to adding all the stuff that needs to be added. I had a complaint yesterday how the links to my fellow designers and friends was gone - and they couldn't figure out how to get to the places they like to visit!!! Hmmmm - sounds like a personal problem to me - huh Ileana!! Bahahaha!!!!!

Hope you have a GREAT day - and Good Luck Searching for those missing files! Oh and hey and don't forget my 35% off sale starts tomorrow and runs though midnight eastern time Sunday night!!! This sale included all 30 new files that I uploaded this week!

Until Next Time!

Weight in Wed!!!

Wow! It has been so crazy today! I am just now getting a chance to catch my breath and get back to my blog! I was actually up until 1:30 AM working on this stupid thing called a blog! I really think I need to take some HTML classes!! But all in all - I really do like the way it is coming along... How about you???

First thing for today... WEIGHT IN WED!!! Now I bet most of you are thinking that I have totally fell off the weight wagon since I haven't posted about it in a while.... but you would be... WRONG!!! Bahahaha!!!

That's right - I am still determined to lose the weight before my hubby comes back home! If you will recall - the bet was I had to get down to 148 lbs before hubby get home from his deployment! So that meant since I started at 213 lbs - I had to lose 65 lbs. Well....

I am happy to report that as of this morning I weigh 190 lbs!!! For a total lost of 23 lbs!!!! So I am pretty excited!!! It has been slow going - but I am really determined to lose this weight! Whooo hoooo!!!

Additionally - I had 30 new files uploaded in the store yesterday!! WOW!! That's a lot!!! (Thank you Shirley for all your hard work to get it done for me!!) So that means that there is brand new items for your pursue in the store! BUT... WAIT.... don't run out and buy them yet!!! Because....

Starting Friday April 17th though midnight Sunday April 19th all my files will be 35% off!!!!

Here is a lookie at just a few of the new files that went up!

Scrapping Chicks Gone Wild -

I spy -

Don't make me crop you out -

Been there Done that -

Beach Boy's Silhouettes -

And for all you die hard croppers and retreat girls, The BK's Mega Scrapping Pack that contains 11 scrap related titles and dies!

And don't forget about the Scrapbooking, Cards and More Membership that I will be hosting starting May 1st!!! (And as a matter of fact, I will probably open it up a little early!!!!) Remember if you purchase your Membership BEFORE MIDNIGHT MAY 1ST your name will be entered for the drawing for the "Beloved Keepsakes Big 'Ole Bag of Scrapping Crap!"

Well I think that is it for today! I got to get back to work on entering all my blog data that got lost in the change!

Sleep well!

Until Next Time!

Beware...

I am going to try and be brave and make some changes on my blog.... (I am really sick if the layout!!) So beware that for the next day or so things might look a little strange - or things might disappear from the blog or there may not be a blog at all!!! BUT hopefully it will all come back eventually!!!

I am not very tech savvy when it comes to HTML so.... I am holding my breath as I move forward!!!

I spent most of last night and this morning uploading new files to the store (30 in all)!! Hopefully those will be up soon! Once they are in the store - I will let you know! (There is some cute stuff if I do say so myself!!)

Well have a great day - and cross your fingers I don't totally lose everything on the blog upgrade!!

Until Next Time!

Happy Monday!!!

Hi there all my cyber friends! Happy Monday!!! I hope you had a WONDERFUL weekend and were able to spend time with your family and friends!!

I want to thank everyone that has already purchased the Scrapbooking, Cards and More Membership that I am hosting! You guys rock!!!! The membership is going to kick off on May 1st, but you never know I may just open it up a little early!!!

Now I have had a lot of questions about what "type" of files I plan to upload to the membership. My goal is to be offer a wide array of subjects or topics, but not compromise my designing style, while at the same time making sure that the files can be use for mutli-purposes. Additionally I don't want to do more than one or two files for any given subject. Therefore there should be a pretty large variety of "stuff".

So on that note... I decided I would give you a sneak peek of some the files to come for those who join the membership......

The first one is the Victorian Silhouettes -


I thought that these silhouettes would be great for your heritage pages - or maybe for a page about your "old fashion love affair".... I think that they are pretty versatile and you could really do a lot with them.

The next sneak peek is called "Playing with Paper and Glue".


Now I would have used this title for my album about scrapbooking or what I love to do! While my friends Chris or Jan would probably use it to do scrapbooking pages about their kindergarten age kids doing crafts!! Once again - a multi functioning file!

And the last sneak peek for today...


I thought this scrollie with the words "Life is in the details" would make a great accent to any of your scrapbooking pages or any project really. You could cut it out of vinyl and apply it to a wall or a picture frame. Really I think you are just limited to your imagination with this one....

So there you have it - a sneak peek of some of the files to come! (And just think what a deal!! The membership only costs $10 for 20+ files! That is $0.50 or less a file!! If you were to purchase just the three files listed above separately - you would have spent $7.29!!!)

If you are interest in purchasing the membership or if you need more information - make sure you go HERE!

And don't forget - everyone name who purchase the membership BEFORE midnight May 1st, 2009 will go in a hat and one lucky person will win the "Beloved Keepsakes Big 'Ole Bag of Scrapping Crap"!!!



Alrighty then - that's it for today - I have tons to do!!!

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Until Next Time!

Cya~
