My canvas clad wall

-
So you know how I keep promising that I'll show you a picture of all the Beyond the Page Canvases I've done on my wall? Well here are some finally!

 DD2 has grown quite a bit too! All of the projects are on canvasses of different thickness to add to the artistic display. I group them in colour groupings... all the pinks together etc so the whole wall is an artistic display...... There are alot more now... too .... LOL

Your blog post inspired me to share a trick that I use to keep my kids school keepsakes and memories organized. Memory Pockets (www.MemoryPockets.com) is the perfect organizer for the tons of papers, crafts/artwork, report cards, yearbooks and the like that come home from school with your child. There may be a few things that make it into your scrapbook, but most of these precious keepsakes won't make the cut, but they need to be saved. Memory Pockets not only help moms organize those items for each school year and neatly saves them in large 10x13 pockets, BUT... each Memory Pocket also features fill in the blanks to help mom record her kids favorite memories, accomplishments, likes and dislikes, etc. Each Memory Pockets set includes 15 10-x13 colorful pockets - one for each school year - and 2 smaller pockets for your child's first tooth and first haircut.

I hope you find this suggestion useful. Thank you for your awesome website!

Awesome Denise thanks! I actually put all my kids school stuff in a big lever arch folder so these would be awesome! I divide up the folder into years and in each year I put in certificates, sample handwriting and a drawing as well as class photo and report card. These memory pockets would work perfectly in my folders! THANKS

Cardstock only Layouts

-

After looking at the cost of a layout I'm going to challenge myself to do some cardstock only layouts (not for my wedding though). Do you think you could manage it? Well I'm not sure but I'm gonna give it a go. But it does get a little ridiculous the costs, con't you think? So I'm going to challenge myself to do a layout using cardstock and patterned paper only! Of course not having a cricuit or sizzix or anything this will mean hand cutting my title....... painstaking... BUT I think it'll be a challenge artistically too. These layouts were done by Deb of Toowoomba and you can see how she's used her paper and cardstock to acentuate her photo's theme.... I especially love the dolphin! When I went to a scrapbook evening recently one of the ladies did a fabulous layout using paper piecing. She made Dora the Explorer layous and her 'dora' was fantastic. I don't think I have that much patience but punching and tearing are right up my alley. Bu...

Coffee Mugs are Finished

Here are the digi scrapped coffee mugs I told you about a few posts back. They're back from the "printer". These were really easy to do. I first created my document that I was digi scrapping and I made the size of the document 4" x 6'" (a standard photo). I then decorated that page using my digital scrapbooking papers and embellishments and finally added the photos. I then went to my local photo lab and uploaded these images to their software and chose to have them printed on mugs. (I chose the stretch option which stretches the image around the mug. So then I had to resize the image to get all my decorations on the mug). And here they are! It only took them a week to print them! So if you're thinking of doing this for a christmas present I think you may just get it back in time...... but check with your photo lab to make sure they could get it back to you before Christmas. I'm happy with the result..... hope the recipients will be too?

Digiscrap a PhotoBook when on special!

-

Have you ever wondered what to do with all that beautiful digitally scrapbooked work? Well you could print a photo book. I save all my pages up and then when there's a special on (Like the recent $9.95 for a 19 page book at Big W) I go in and get them printed. This way I have a hard copy of my work to show people and I get the pages printed very cheaply... that's around 52 cents per page. Just remember though the specials are more commonly done for the smaller books 8 x 8 etc. So when doing your layouts keep that in mind.
