Disney Scrapbooking Supplies

I have a friend or two who LOVE Disney. I would say that I like it as well. Who doesn’t? But, there are people that are obsessed with Disney. They are the ones that have season passes to Disneyland, or Disney World, and are also obsessed with all things Disney. I mean, who doesn’t love Mickey Mouse? I have a little girl, and I’m dying to take her to Disneyland next year for her 5th birthday. Although, I would not say that I’m a Disney die hard, the one time I have been to Disneyland, the minute I walked through … Continue reading →

Jealousy in Scrapbooking

No matter how good we’ve got it, we can always be jealous of other scrappers. Right? OK, maybe it’s actually wrong, but it happens. I wrote about my personal scrapspace in the article, “How I Organize All That Stuff”. I am lucky. I have a room devoted to my scrapbooking. It also doubles as the office, and a place for my kids to make messes while I scrap. But, nevertheless, others might be jealous of what I have. I no longer have to store my scrap stuff under my bed, taking 30 minutes just to get it all out and … Continue reading →

Boys VS. Girls in Scrapbooking

Posted on by

I had a little girl first. That’s when I dove head first into the world of scrapbooking. I loved all the adorable papers, and embellishments, flowers, bling, etc. etc. etc. that I could put on her layouts. It was so much fun, and so girly. Since that is how I started doing the more modern style of scrapbooking, I am a little lost when it comes to how to scrapbook for a boy. Does anyone else have this problem? So, I find that I want to put things on the layouts that maybe aren’t quite appropriate like papers that look … Continue reading →

Tie a Ribbon Around It

Posted on by

I love to scrapbook with ribbon. It can add so much to your page, and there are lots of things that you can do with ribbon to add dimension, and life to your scrapbook pages. This weekend, I actually got to sit down and do a scrapbook layout. It seems like it is harder and harder these days to find time to scrap. But, I used a lot of ribbon on a particular layout, and loved how it turned out. I took a very thick piece of ribbon that I wanted to use for an accent color. In this particular … Continue reading →

Video Walk-Throughs for New Scrapbook Lines

Posted on by

I recently discovered that some scrapbooking design companies are showing their collections online with a walk-through video. I ran across a YouTube video linked on scrapbook.com to Basic Grey’s New Hopscotch collection. As I was looking at the papers, I saw a link to a YouTube video down below. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to see in more detail all the cute papers, embellishments, and add-on kits you can buy with this cute collection. I was able to see not only the paper pad, but the card making kits, page making kits, embellishments, die cuts, etc. etc. that … Continue reading →

Cricut Craziness

It seems that everyone has some sort of die cut machine these days. I don’t. I guess I just don’t want to spend the money, or maybe, it’s that I don’t want to spend the money, and then never use it like some people I know. But, if you have one, there are amazing things to be done. I found one such project that just blew me away. I don’t know if this is something that I am amazed at from an, “I never want to do that” perspective, or an, “I wish I had patience for that”, or better … Continue reading →
