QP freebie time

I made this layout last year - and decided to expand it and make it a 2 page QP freebie for you. Click the preview below to download and ... Enjoy!

(I like to give credit for the kits I use, but unfortunately I don't have any information on this - feel free to leave a comment if you do.)

Make a Winkflash book in a Wink!

YEAY - Winkflash has brought back their flatrate book sale (you have until February 3rd). This is a screaming deal. I just finished a wedding book for my sister - 100 pages. I love how it turned out. I have also done a book like this with pictures of my kids and gave them to grandparents.

These sales are usually short lived, so unless you keep up on your scrapbooking - it is very difficult to finish a book before the deadline. If you are like me, you need a project you can do quick. I am selling 100 QP's based off my sister's book - a classic black book. Now, you will get several layouts that are repeated, I just duplicated things for you so you can do a 100 book fast. HINT: when I make a 100 page book I name my files "1-100" that way when I'm loading the book to the site I know exactly where each page goes. That is how these QPs are set up for you. Open each QP, drop your pictures behind it and save it as a jpg. It will still take some time - but you will love the outcome. Here's a preview of some of the layouts. I'm selling the whole set for $1. Hope you like it!

(After you Buy Now and checkout with paypal, I will email a download link to you as soon as possible.)

My latest scrapbooking

I have actually been scrapbooking. I'm working on a 100 page book for my mother-in-law. They took an amazing river cruise a few years back and I'm about 1/4 done with the book. They all have the same background and basic designs - because I think that puts the focus on the pictures more. So here'a few layouts. I was hoping to do some QPs for you - but when I look at them without the pictures they are just too basic. I'll have to come up with something else for a QP.

Baked Pumpkin Seeds

This is not scrapbook related ... just some good old recipe sharing! For those of you who have not yet carved your pumpkins ... don't throw the seeds away!! This is the recipe for baking seeds that I have been enjoying since I was a kid - and they are downright yummy (and easy).you'll need:
2 cups seeds (give or take)
3 TBS melted butter
1 tsp salt
1 tsp Worcestershire sauceSepereate seeds and guts as thoroughly as possible. Boil seeds in salted water for 10 mins. Strain seeds and combine with the salty-buttery-worsh mixture. Coat seeds. Spread on cookie sheet and bake at 225 for about 2 hours. (I know it's a long time - it just needs to dry them out).

ENJOY, ENJOY, ENJOY!!!

Time for another freebie

Ok - I've decided that I just can't have so many hobbies!!! I've been busy with life and took on the "hobby" of reading. Between the books and the kids I just haven't gotten much else done. So to make up for it I am going to be giving out a fabulous freebie. I made these calendar layouts for an 11x8.5 calendar (my mom printed hers at home and I used artscow.com and both turned out great). So over the course of the next couple weeks I will be giving away the entire collection ... 3 months at a time.
