Saturday Photo Challenge

How many photos do you have on your phone? It is so easy to take them, however we need to organize and print them!!

Saturday is my day to go through the past week's photos. Delete the ones that are blurry or those accidental photos of the ceiling or floor and organize the others. And MOST OF ALL to print those that I want to preserve in a scrapbook layout.

Join me each Saturday for a little photo challenge -- this Saturday start with the clean up by deleting those photos or images no longer need.

Who is up for the challenge?

Trimmer Fun Finished Layout

 All the trimmer FUN was to finish a layout as a part of my 52 Layouts in a Year challenge. Sometimes it seems I never have time to complete my own scrapbook layouts so this year (2024) I have challenged myself to finish one a week. 

Do you have a scrapbooking or creative goal in mind?

Stampin' Up! Journey Begins

 It is my 14th day as a Stampin' Up!® Demonstrator and it has been so FUN!! Getting inky with stamps, ink and paper remains my creative outlet. It is so nice to have you on this journey with me.

The journey is starting with getting familiar with new Stampin' Up!® products. Today I am sharing a video on using the Stampin' Up! ® trimmer to gut the center of a piece of cardstock.

Coffee & Cards

Tuesdays are Coffee & Cards day over in my Facebook group. I tried my hand at the Simple Stories card kit for Simple Vintage Life in Bloom (picked it up at The Scrappin' Elephant scrapbook store in Hanceville, AL).

I enjoyed the easy to read and follow directions. These cards are very colorful and I found coordinating embellishments, too. One done and 7 more to go. 

It was fun to ink the edges with black ink, add faux stitching with a black journaling pen, and pop up the focal ebellishment with 3-D Foam tape.  

Have you tried a Simple Stories card kit?
