Hi, It been a while since I have been on here. I think I should put some more of my layouts. I did the past few weeks on here for you all to see. I been doing well just trying to keep myself busy as one can be. Hope you enjoy the new layouts and having a good week so far? Let me know what you think...
I'll put up a video of the layouts. You see below as soon as I get one done. There at least two or three more layouts I'd show you. But some of my family are still living. I wanted to protected their privacy. Since, I didn't ask their permission before hand. I have one of my videos posted below of some my layouts I didn't posted on my blog. If you see a layout with white paper covering the pictures. It's because I'm protecting my living family members privacy.
"John and Nellie" my great-grandparents
"Joseph and Mary" my great great great great grandparents
Hope everyone having a good summer so far. I have been enjoy it so far trying to keep up with my scrapbook layouts. I have done a few decided to finally upload them on my blog. Hope you all enjoy the new layouts and the layout share video. I'm going to try and keep up with the blog. A friend and I plan on getting together soon. To go out near the bay where we life either early sunrise or at sunset and take some pictures. If we do that you guys might see some new pictures from me either as a slideshow or just posted on here. So watch out for that I'm not sure yet when we'll be taking pictures of nature. Probably when he has some down time. I know it'll be before it gets too cold!
P.S. There a third layout you'll see in the layout share video... I forgot to take a picture of it to put on here. Hope you all enjoy...
Hey folks I just updated my last post with videos of my layout share. I realize I shared a layout in my layout share video. I didn't share in my last post. Because when I posted my pictures of my layout I didn't start this layout until the day after posting on my blog. The layout you see below is of my father when he was a little boy. The three photos are the original photos. Before I scan the pictures and information into my external hard drive. I always check the back of the original photo to see if my grandmother put information like year, date or writing of information on back of the photo. Luck would have it I found some information written on the back of the small wallet size school picture of my dad. It the small picture on the right hand side of the layout. She wrote how tough he looked in his school pictures. I decided to scan it and print it out to put in my layout. I like how it all came together. The picture on the far left side of the layout is my father in a cowboy uniform. He looks tough in that picture too. Hope you all enjoy look at it.
If you want to know what products or papers I used. If you haven't already go back to my recent post and watch the Heritage layout video you'll see the layout. Thanks for stopping by and the support you all shown me by either visiting my blog and/or leaving nice comments I really do appreciated it.
I come to you with a couple of layouts... I been doing over the past few weeks. I have another pet layout I'm in the process of doing. When I get that done. I'll take a picture and upload it to this post. I'm not going to be writing all the products I used under the photos. Like I did in previous posts. I'm doing layout shares on myyoutube channel. Where I tell everyone the story behind the photos and the products I used. When I upload the video to my channel. I'll post it on here too. So, check back often for updates on future layout post. The more recent ones are the first you will see. I haven't done a video for the layouts you are looking at. When I do I'll put it up here on this post. Hope you all enjoy the layouts. Sorry I haven't been much of an active user on my blog. Just been busy with other things. Including working on scrapbook layouts. Have a good Friday hope you all enjoy your weekend! Justie

UPDATE - 6/25/2013: Here are the videos of the layouts you see above. The "Kitchen Roots" layout. I forgot to show that in my heritage video sorry. Forgot all about that one, lol. Hope you enjoy the layout share videos. That you all are enjoy the week so far.
I thought to share with some of you following my blog. The prize I won in one of the challenges on Scrapbook.com they were having for National Scrapbook Day! It was awesome prize pack. I'll be playing with some of these items I received over the weekend. I don't know how I'll use some of these in my heritage layouts. But I'll find a way to put them to use that for sure. Here a video of me showing you what I got as my prize. I would have taken some pictures but thought to show you all in a video would be better.
Hope your Monday went well. Mines went well if you call sleeping most of the day well, lol. I'm a night owl. I guess no matter how hard I try I'll never get a decent bedtime. Unless I find work soon then will I probably have a decent bedtime. Anyway the other day I signed up for a pinterest account and started to add things I like. I decided to pin my own work to the site. Who knows maybe someone will like my work and decided to contact me about a job or something. You never know right?
So if any of you would like to go check it out here my link to my pinterest. The "My" you see on some of my boards on pinterest. It's my work I upload to the site. http://pinterest.com/jazzman22/
It pretty much the same work you seen to my work on here or my other sites I might have linked I provided some of you. But thought to post it on my blog to let you know. Hope you all have a nice evening and I'll be posting some of my layouts soon on here.
Hope everyone doing well this Thursday evening or Friday if you're else where in the world... I thought I would share with you guys a new little machine. I got yesterday in the mail. I always was trying to find something that I could print 4x6 or smaller photos. That were good quality prints you could get. When you would take your pictures in to the store to get printed. I did a search online and came across this photo machine. That doesn't take up too much room and from what I saw on YouTube from people who bought it. It seems to print out good quality photos. I still think my Kodak all in one printer. Gives me good quality prints. But wanted to find something where I could save a little bit of money on ink with my bigger printer. I'll still use the Kodak for my bigger 5x7 and 8x10 prints once in while.
So, I decided to go on amazon.com and look it up and they did have it. I saw amazing reviews there were some negative things said about the machine. But there were more good then bad reviews. I always look at the reviews of an item before I buy it. It was only about $73.69 on amazon.com. I decided to go ahead and buy it. I realize that even though it was on amazon website. It was not sold by them but by a company called Beach Camera.com I have to say they are also quick at sending out their products. I order it on Sunday they send it out the next day. It came to my door Wednesday Morning. I also order extra photo and ink for the printer. But it came shipped separate since it was sold by amazon. It came this morning. So decided to take a picture of both to show you. I guess to show off my products, lol.
I'm doing to play with it tonight I might do update on my thoughts probably either write about it and put it on here. Or do a video and give you guys my opinions on it. Probably show you some of the pictures I printed out. One thing I can say about this printer. It comes with it own set of papers and each has it own ink to. No more guessing how much ink you have. From what I heard you put the paper and ink in. Once you print all your pictures. If you decide to use another pack of paper. You push print it won't print because it used all of it ink for the other papers. The pack it comes with three inks and I believe 36 sheets of paper that makes up to 108 sheets of paper. The ink in the pack can print up to 36 sheets. So, if you used another sheet of paper make sure you use new ink that comes with it. Hope that make sense to you all. If you don't have one look it up on Youtube and there some people who can explain it better then I can.
I forgot to tell you guys I won my very first challenge. I won in the Washi Tape Challenge. I know it was a random computer pick! But still excited to know I won something. It'll be send out sometime next Monday or by Wednesday at the latest. When I get my prize in the mail I'll show you guys. I know it has to be scrapbook related, lol. Anyways hope you all are doing well. Now I should go and start playing with this little guy. Check back for UPDATE! on my thoughts either in writing or in a video! on the Canon Selphy CP900 right here on this post.
UPDATE: All I got to say is this is one nice little printer... I printed with the 5 photo paper that came with the printer. I used up my first 36 sheets of paper already. I had fun with it. It did cut off a bit but nothing where you don't know what or who it is. But I guess I just have to keep playing with it. I didn't explain in the video. But I installed the CD it came with. It cool software there one where you can use couple of different decorative frames. I got it to work wireless so no usb cord for this guy! All I have to do is open the software put in some photos and push print. I also used my memory card to print off pictures too. I think I like the computer part better. But will use the memory card when I'm away from the computer.
Here a video of my thoughts on this printer. Enjoy! Be warn! it a long video... Sorry just don't know when to shut up! lol.
