Long time no see


WOW, I just can't believe it has been so long since I posted. I have checked in, but never posted. :(

Hopefully in the next few weeks, I will have new things posted for eBay maybe even Etsy. Fingers crossed xx.

While I have been away, I have had some health issues and new meds I started taking. They totally zapped my energy, so not much crafty-ness going on here. I have sooo missed it. 

I just got back from a Thanksgiving lunch with Lacie at school today. She wasn't crazy about the dinner, however, I thought it was pretty good. Sure don't remember my school lunches tasting that good.

I have a few things ending tonight on ebay. Just a few single 12 x 12 pages. 

You can find me on ebay by searching for:  mysweetpaperdreams. I am a Proud member of the BTDL design team. Type BTDL in your search on ebay to see all of the amazing work from this super talented team.

now.. let me see if I can remember how to post a picture..

Sleep Tight pages just listed on eBay

I listed two double page layouts last night on eBay. One for a girl, and one for a boy. They are basically the same pages, just switched the colors to make them different. I am trying out some patterns that I bought from TREASURE BOX DESIGNS. She has the cutest patterns! Love them. :) Anyway.. this is the girl set. What do you think?

Happy Humid Saturday :)

What a hot, humid day it is here in North Carolina!! It has been this way since last week. I listed 5 new items on eBay on Thursday night. 
One paper bag mini album, three single page layouts and a set of 12 x 12 pages.
I tried to post a picture of all 5 items, but I think only the last one is showing up. Not sure why... But I will re-post the other later.
Thanks for looking!

Tear Bear THE GRADUATE Premade Page

Here is one of the pages I listed last night on eBay. I also did a boy one. Super cute!  I am going to learn a new photo editing program since the one on my last computer is gone. Wish me luck. :o)

The computer saga has a happy ending

Well, after having went through six visits to Best Buy store with my Dell laptop and 3 or 4 calls to the  1888 number. I finally have a replacement for my computer.

It was still doing the same things it had done since October. Not only did it do it at my house, but 4 of the computer guys in the store also saw it acting wacky. The strange thing is, whenever it went to the repair center in Atlanta, it never acted up there... yeah... right..

Finally last Monday the Dell came back from the repair center again and when they told me it had nothing repaired on it, I had to refuse to take it back. After talking to a different manager this time who read all the notes, spoke with the agents in the store, she honored my request for a new laptop.

Here is what I learned from this , so please use this as reference...

ALWAYS make sure when you send an item off for repair under warranty, make sure they write EVERYTHING you tell them it is doing. Make sure you keep track of names, dates and anything that could help you in the future. 

If you can , get the person you are giving your item to, to verify what you see is wrong. That was what helped me get my replacement computer.  I am happy with the outcome of this even though it should not have went on this long.  

Also.. when you buy a warranty, make sure you understand it very clearly.  Never ASSume anything!

The Besy Buy SAGA continues...



Well, first let me say how disappointed I am with BEST BUY. ..... AGAIN.


My laptop is STILL not repaired for the issues it has had since October of last year. I can't seem to get anywhere with this store. I can't believe I am going through all of this. I have spent TONS and TONS of money in there over the years. I finally called the customer service number on Monday night after picking up my Dell laptop again. They assured me it was fixed. I came home, got Lacie settled in bed and logged onto my scrap groups on eBay. Lo and behold, as I was typing, my cursor was still going all over the place. I was literally speechless... for a few minutes.


I am going to call them back again today when things settle down. We are going to a birthday party this afternoon for one of Lacie's preschool friends.

I should have posted before now, but it really is a challenge to fix all of the errors as I am typing. I should video tape this and post it for THE GEEK SQUAD...
Anywho here is a simple one page layout I did this week. I am working on a new paper bag album and I can't wait to get back on it tonight.

Have a blessed Saturday!

New Acrylic/chipboard album

Well, I was getting ready to post a picture of my latest album, but I guess it will have to wait until tomorrow.


What a day this has been!! WHEW! glad it is over and I am heading to bed. 

I had to take my laptop back to Best Buy AGAIN for the same thing on Thursday. It was a unplanned trip back so I had no time to prepare myself for the two weeks it will be gone AGAIN... I am a little frustrated about the whole thing because this was the THIRD time I took it back for the same thing.  


So now I am having to use SLOW MOE the desk top. It is so slow, it is unreal!!! I shouldn't complain, but I am spoiled to my fast laptop. LOL!


I listed my album last night on eBay and I thought my computer would be ready today (because they said it would be ready) but I got a call around 12:30 today saying they are shipping it off and it will be gone for two weeks. :(   


I will get my picture up here sometime tomorrow so you all can see it. I have already shut down MOE for the night and I am using DH's laptop . All of my pictures are on MOE of my album. 


I hope everyone had a great GOOD Friday and wishing everyone a blessed Easter weekend.

We are heading out for a quick trip to IKEA in the morning for a large stuffed shark for Lacie. Her friend Peyton has one and she has been wanting one so bad... My mom and sister are getting this for her and she is super excited.!!


Have a great night all, I want to post the picture tomorrow (well, later today) but if you really can't wait to see it, just search BTDL on eBay . It is the VINTAGE SHABBY album.


Sweet Paper Dreams!
