Halloween Countdown!

As I was surfing the web I came across this fabulous idea from Collette over at My computer is my canvas. I had to get creating and come up with some of my own designs! These are printable Halloween Countdowns! Whne you purchase you will receive an email with the downloadable file, and then you print it out at home. I created an 8.5 X 11 size that counts down the spooky 13 days before trick or treating...and a 12 X 12 size that does the full 31 day countdown. Anyone with a printer can order the 8.5 X 11 one(s) and print it out on your home computer. For the 12 X 12 you will need a printer that can handle that size, or if you don't have one (like me) you can upload to Costco and have it printed for you...which is what I will be doing! So what I did was printed out one of my 8.5 X 11 countdowns onto some nice whisper white paper from Stampin Up. Then I stuck it into one of those stand up acrylic frames and used a mini glue dot to attach some fall colored Hershey Kisses to the front! That way your page doesn't get torn up when you take the candy off each day. And you can see when you take the candy off it reveals a cute little Halloween character! I just loved how these turned out! You will be seeing more printables from me very soon so keep checking back! The 8.5 X 11 ones are now available in my Etsy store!Fright Night Here is my example printed out in the frame with the Hershey Kisses

Seasonal Quick pages and page titles

I have been busy making up some new fun stuff! Here I have created some page titles for each of the seasons. I think each title's colors and elements truly captures the feel of that season! Well of course I couldn't just make the titles, I had to make a page for all of the too! So here you have the 4 seasons titles and a quick page for each season! Put your favorite photos that capture the season into the quick page and display it for the 3 months of that season! Enjoy! Titles

Baby Boy Quick Pages

I have designed some more baby boy quick pages. Of course I will have baby girl options too, but I have 2 boys, so the boy pages get done first around here :) If you would like the girl version just make a note in your paypal invoice that you would like girl and I will send you the girl version (that is if you want it before it gets posted here!) These pages are special though, they were made so that they can be printed first and then your photos adhered on top of the page. So if you are not familiar with digital scrapbooking you can still use these pages. You would simply upload the page to your favorite photo printer (I like Costco and Persnickety Prints) and get them printed. When the pages arrive, find your photos and tape them on! It's simple! Perfect for those of you that love my pages but aren't quite sure how to use them. Please let me know if you like this style, if it's a big hit I can start creating more pages like this!

apple mini book last day

Here are the last few pages from the apple picking mini book. I love how the whole little mini book turned out. I plan on making these little 5X5 books a lot more often. I think it will be a great way to get more books finished and pictures for us to look at faster. Plus 5 X 5 page design it a lot easier and faster to get done, so I can whip up a mini book in a few days and have it in our hands in a week or so after the event. Don't get me worng the apple picking pictures will get a full 2 page spread in the boys big yearly scrapbooks, but I think they would like to see some pictures now too! I hope you enjoyed the mini book, tomorrow...apple picking quick pages!

apple mini book continued

I just love the colors and elements of this kit, the apples kind of have a felt fuzzy look to them. And I love how the page with Josh in a circle turned out. I love circles in scrapbooking and I just don't use them enough.

more mini book

Some pages featuring Josh. He has a great time apple picking, well not picking as much as eating! Apples are his new favorite thing. He crawls around the house with an apple in his hands most days just working away at it. He loves them!

The mini book continues. I just loved the one close up of Zach picking apples, so it got it's own page! I hope you are enjoying the mini book so far, I still have more pages (some good ones too!)

Here are the next few pages from our apple picking mini book. I created the book as a 5X5, now just have to get it printed. Hopefully you can imagine how the 2 page spreads look next to each other, I forgot to save them together! Thanks for stopping by today, more pages tomorrow!

Apple picking mini book

I created a mini book of our recent apple picking trip. I am going to get it printed so that the little guys can look at themselves in a real book! I am going to share the 21 pages over the next few days. I love how it came out and I can't wait to get the printed book in my hands!

Baby Shower Bingo cards

I recently created a bingo card for my sisters bridal shower, and I thought I would create some for a baby shower as well. This game was a hit, and everyone LOVED the custom bingo cards that matched her wedding colors. Everyone gets a bingo card and takes a few minutes writing in items they think the guest of honor will receive. Then once she starts opening gifts guests mark off items as she opens them and play just like bingo. It's a great way to get everyone to pay attention during gift opening, as well as have a little fun! So here are some baby shower bingo cards. There is pink and blue, and for those who like to be surprised about their new arrival like me, a neutral one! These are 8.5 X 11 and the file will come to you ready to be printed on your home printer....so you just purchase once and print as many as you need! Enjoy! (oh and the bridal shower bingo cards will be coming soon!)

These are available in my Etsy Shop HERE
