I was away scrapbooking this weekend, trying to catch up on my Project Life album. These weekends usually consist of a little blogging, some extra sleep, a few delicious meals and some easy family scrapbook ideas. When I started scrapbooking 18 years ago I labored over the pages (and cut many a kid’s head with patterned scissors. Can anyone relate? Now… Read More
Handmade Card Ideas in Under 10 Minutes
This month on Crafty Hangouts we were challenged to come up with a craft that could be completed in under 10 minutes. Just my style. Quick and easy. Lickety split. In a jiffy. (Consumer Crafts sponsored this post but all opinions and ideas are my own!) I ordered some goodies from Consumer Crafts and came up with these handmade card… Read More
Project Life Ideas for the Busy Woman
Too tired and too busy to record your family memories? Think the best you can do is a bunch of cellphone pictures that never make it into an album? I hear ‘ya. I really do. I’ve been a scrapbooker for 17 years. When I first began I cropped my pictures with patterned scissors and gave people square heads instead of… Read More
Craft Room Makeover and Organization Ideas
I would love to say that I am a bold, confident woman, but the truth is I’m just a work in progress. Probably a little bit like you if you’re honest. I want to be complete. Whole. No blemishes or scars. Dare I even hope, acceptable and perfect? Funny how my decorating seems to mirror my life. Incomplete. Unfinished. Blemishes… Read More

Since I have started blogging… Read More

Even though I share mostly DIY and craft projects now, along with favorite recipes, I am still a story teller at heart. Imagine my excitement… Read More
Ways to Use Social Media in Project Life
Are you as hooked into social media as I am? (Hint. Hint. You can follow me on facebook, pinterest and instagram.) If you have teenagers or adult children like I do (two of each kind!), communicating by text or facebook is probably common. I wanted to share some ways to use social media in Project Life memory keeping. On the layout… Read More
Catching up on Project Life
You might be asking, what happened to Project Life? Well, you’re probably not but I’ll tell you anyway! I have been failing miserably at keeping current with my pages. In the past I have gotten behind a week or two because I normally print my pictures every 3-4 weeks. With all the blogging I’m doing I am not staying current…. Read More
Project Life Layout for October 2012
Today’s Project Life layout was fun to put together with less photos and more memorabilia and journaling. Both pages share some “out of my comfort zone” moments. The left side layout has a couple of pics from my adventure singing from West Side Story again. What fun to sing with “my” Tony from 28 years earlier. I also included… Read More
