Digital Brag Book
I wanted to get these made for the Grandmas and yes, I waited til the last minute. But that is why digital is so awesome! They are so quick and easy! I used Chrissy W’s Something to Brag About Mini Album Templates from Elemental Scraps, Sweet Shoppe’s A Spring Thing Digital Kit by MandaBean & [...]
last minute gift idea: Embellished frame
Comments OffI just *love* this gift frame that Micha created and shared in the museum! She took an 8×10 frame, inserted a picture, and embellished the outside of the frame using scrapbook supplies. So beautiful and so easy! If you have a hard to shop for person on your list this year, this might be the [...]
Sugar Cube Castles
Here’s an easy little project the I did with the kids today. My boys are 7 and 9 and my 9 year old had a friend over this afternoon too. They had a blast doing this — it was the most quiet moment of the afternoon! The sugar cubes were easy for them to use, [...]
Displaying Greeting Cards
I *LOVE* getting that first card in the mail, a sure sign the season has rolled in! Last year, I displayed our cards on a mirror in the dining room. This time, I opted to pile them up in an old loaf pan simply embellished with a ribbon and some glittered trees. I ran some [...]
Another Easy Project
Comments OffI did this today for my secret santa at work. It was super easy. I already had the 12×12 frame. I got a piece of brown cardstock and mounted the pattern paper on top and then printed out the bible verse. The bird is from the digital kit (free one at two peas) called Color [...]

Journal Your Christmas 2008 Update
You may remember my album I created in October which was inspired by Ali Edwards. I was ahead of the game by creating my Journal your Christmas 2008 album back in October. But when it came time to actually write in it, I was a total slacker! I missed the first few days, but then [...]
Christmas Photo Gift Tags
I made these really easy and cute photo gift tags using Ali Edward’s Holiday + Title Journal Photo Overlays and our Holiday Photo taken by Shannon Montez. Using Photoshop (any version and/or Elements will work) I opened both the Overlay and my phoot. I resized the photo to fit and resized the image to around 1.25″ [...]
Easy gift for the holidays
Comments OffI had a 12×12 frame just sitting around so I decided to put it to good use. I totally scraplifted this from someone in a magazine and if my stuff weren’t packed up right now I could tell you who. This was by far the easiest gift I’ve ever made. I cut out 9 circles [...]
Easy Monogram Gift Tags
Comments OffStep 1. Punch circles in two sizes, one slightly larger than the other. I used the nested circle punches by Creative Memories and EK Success. Consider using a light color paper for the smaller circle so that the monogram letter shows up really well. Step 2. Stamp first letter of gift recipient’s name in smaller [...]
