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, [...]
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 [...]

Martha, Martha, Martha…
Okay, how cool and clever is this holiday photo card idea? I bet it would be fun to do with adults and/or pets too. Hmm, I can’t think of another, more simple holiday word to spell out than “JOY”, can you?… ———————————– I dig this photo idea as well. A great alternative to a single [...]
High Five on the Holidays!
I’d been saving this holiday card idea for whenever my husband and I became parents… I started with an actual print of our son’s hand on some paper. I used a non-toxic acrylic paint — a Ranger Adirondack Paint Dabber in Citrus, to be specific. It worked out best to pour a little paint into [...]
