Pinterest is so popular, especially in the scrapbooking or design communities. I’ve been wondering, what would my toddler son pin if he could? This would be a fun way to record what he likes as a scrapbook page! It sounds like a simple concept, but I can’t imagine pulling it off in such a short ...
I’d like to share a mini tutorial how to print on journaling cards. In this case, I printed one paragraph on two journaling cards, as if using a typewriter: First, I taped two journaling cards on a piece of card stock. I cut the card stock in to an easy-to-meausre size, 5″ by 5″. I ...
I’ve finally finished and uploaded the video project I’ve been working on for 3+ weeks now. I’m so excited and happy it’s over with and I can finally go back to scrap more. This page was done over a week ago. While I was waiting for the computer to render the video, I said to ...
I discussed using four 6×6 papers in a traditional 12×12 page – quadrant style – in my previous post, and how it’s takes a little work to carefully align the paper for gluing. A quicker way, which this post is about, is to use Becky Higgins pocket protectors Design E. Design E has four 6×6 ...
Lately there have been a lot of people on 2peas forum asking what to do with 6×6 paper pads. I recently got my first 6×6 pad of My Mind’s Eye – Follow Your Heart collection, wanting to try out the smaller-scaled patterns and to reduce paper waste. I also saw this card layout from kesiArt ...

Off topic: Whew, did 20 minutes of Jillian 30-day shred today. Good me. *pat on the back*. I owned the DVD for over a year, and I’m still at level 2, and it still kicks my butt! I mentioned it here because I hope by talking about my workout, I’ll motivate myself to move more. ...
When I saw this on Pinterest, I knew I HAD to use it in a scrapbook layout. Almost immediately I thought of all the “happy” pics I collected from my son’s first year photos. In Adobe Bridge, I organized his to-be-scrappbooked photos by theme, and one of the themes is called “happy”, and I have ...
I belong to a little group called Young Scrappers at Two Peas in a Bucket. They are a bunch of great, easy going girls (in their 20s & 30s), and I’m so glad to have found a place I can call home in the vast sea of scrapbook forumers. We’re doing our first blog hop ...
I’m still not sure what’s the best system for the post titles. My blog posts are not always about the title of the layout. I hope to talk more about my process and techniques (or the lack of) for the layout. How about “Title for the post content” + “title for the layout in curly ...
