I mentioned yesterday that I have never printed my favorite family photos. I can hear the gasps of horror as the scrapbooking community reads this. Before you make me turn in my scrapbooker card (the cooler version of a man card, ha!) let me explain. We live in a wonderful world filled with technology. My… read more »
February was a rough month at our house. I am so ready for warm weather and spring flowers, and for the cold weather and germs to be gone. Eden was stay-in-bed-with-a-high-fever (and double ear infection) sick for a solid week, and of course wanted her mommy with her 24/7. On the plus side, while she… read more »
Some of the greatest gifts I have ever given my girls are their photo storybooks. They are not just photo books, oh no! (OK, they kind of are.) They are photo books written to be read like an age appropriate storybook. I started this tradition almost five years ago with Zoë, and now Eden is… read more »
I am taking Stacy Julian’s “Twelve” class at Big Picture Classes this year. The idea behind the class is scrapbooking twelve layouts for each month of 2012. That is 144 layouts! I don’t think I scrapped 144 layouts in 2008-2011 combined. Ever since having Eden my scrapbooking time has been almost exclusively focused on my… read more »

The ordinary really is extraordinary. Little glimpses of my girls growing up, the foods we eat, the games we play,… read more »
Baby Life was the first sub-category of Life in Photos I created. The most frequent comment I heard about my School of Life collection was, “I wish you had something like this for my baby!” and I completely agreed. I wished I had something like that for my baby. When Zoë was an only child… read more »
I had a moment of scrapbooking brilliance as I was drinking my coffee this morning. (Humble, I know.) Did you ever read about the 12 on 12 Project on Cathy Zielske’s blog a few years ago? What a great idea! I did it once, and then went and had a baby. In fact, I think this… read more »
I think this could be one of the best days of the entire year. Digital Scrapbooking Day AND we get to turn our clocks back an hour tonight. An extra hour to scrap and then sleep in sound like perfection to me! I am thrilled to be launching my newest collection today: Life in Photos.… read more »

It will revolutionize the way you scrapbook. It is simple, endlessly flexible, and can be used to document all… read more »
