At the last minute, I decided to stamp\/crop our family Christmas cards this year.<\/p>\n

I’m tapping into a lot of the materials I have on hand to save a little money, and I used the Splitcoaststampers website<\/a> gallery to search for design ideas for the Stampin’ Up<\/a> sets I have on hand.  All I had to buy was some gold ribbon, clear envelopes and a gold pigment ink pad.<\/p>\n

I guess I’ll need stamps, too.<\/p>\n

Because I got a bit busy with the cards, for today’s daily post I’m just going to direct you to the Disney Universe for Wii video game review I did for GeekMom.com a week ago<\/a>.  I was so pleased that the review got picked up by the BlogHer network for further sharing<\/a>.  The week it was released, I wrote to Disney Interactive for a “review copy” of the game and I received one 5 days later!  Wow!<\/p>\n

To summarize, the kids love the game, and I was a bit surprised at how twisted it is, considering it’s Disney.  It’s clear Disney was trying to replicate the incredibly popular LEGO video game style made popular by Travelers Tales games.<\/p>\n

This week I’ll be working on another free-game we received for review: Cabela’s Adventure Camp for Wii<\/a>.  I’m kinda liking this GeekMom gig \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
