Friday Scrapbook Funnies: Introducing The Hilarious Thenaby Nicole Humphrey | More from this Blogger 16 Jun 2006 05:33 AM
She was always one to help another scrapbooker in need of the perfect poem for a layout. She continues to help, but has now had a book published and is still queen poetry around some of the more popular message boards. I have saved over the years, some of the funnier poetry that Thena had shared with us. I thought I'd end our week by sharing two with you. I hope that you enjoy and that you have a great weekend! Do Eyelets Serve a Higher Purpose? Written by Thena Smith Forgive me, my kind scrapping friends And one question let me pose... Eyelets, tags and shakers What are the purposes of those? I have a trillion photos That pose a looming task And since I fail to know their use I thought that I should ask... I don't want to miss out on something That I will regret later on But seems to me that eyelets On clothing should belong.... Years ago when I was sewing And making baby clothes I hammered and I pounded A score or so of those. And as for shaker boxes Who invented those (and why?) I do not see the purpose Altho I really try! If my purpose is my photo To protect, preserve and show Why do I need confetti..... I confess I do not know! Labels, tags, brads and nailheads I just cannot get hold Of the newest and the trendiest-- It's gotten out of control! What a great relief it was And what a wonderful surprise When we found our own special scrapping stuff To replace sewing and office supplies. But now it seems we're back again To office supplies galore Except the price is three times as much At the local scrap booking store! I'm really not complaining But I really want to know If they serve some greater purpose... Will somebody let me know???? Fighting to be Frugal Written by Thena Smith I try my best to be a good wife And manage my resources as I should I shop with coupons at the store And at frugality I am quite good! Although I try to do my best This should come as no big surprise My one great big weakness is Buying Scrapbooking supplies! So don't tell me about your eyelets Or the new Quickutz machine that's out... Don't tease me with your Sew Cute machine It just makes me want to pout! I'm turning off my QVC And Amazon.com forever more And I'm trying to regain my frugality By just shopping at non scrapbooking stores. I thought it would be easy When what should appear before my weary eyes In the school section of the Drugstore Were those....gasp! Scrapbooking supplies!!!! More from Thena next Friday!

Long before Thena Smith was a published author of adorable scrapbook related poetry, I used to chat with her occasionally on a scrapbook message board.
