Thank you all for taking your time to answer my question. For those of you who print them at home, i do have 2 decent printers, and like Vickie, I have a stash of my favorite photo paper. I have a few hundred photos to print, if not more. I’m not sure I want to wear and tear on my printer, the ink, ...

Hi all! I have been out of the scrapbook world for years now.I Come on here to get inspiration sometimes. Have made a few altered books as gifts ,but Still can not get myself motivated enough to start up again. I have had 2 of my 3 daughters get married, 2 graduate from college and one grand baby bo...

Thanks for warm welcome! I appreciate it. Things on the board have calmed down quite a bit. There was too much drama before, part of the reason I stopped posting. Very positive place now. Everyone encourages one another. I like that!  I was able to finish the book. Turned out cute. Unfortunately I o...

Hello! I used to be a member on this board. Want to say it’s been at least 10 years since I have posted. I have not scrapped in about the same amount of time. Life and circumstances got in the way. Recently My daughter asked me to make her childhood friend a scrapbook for a baby shower gift. I colle...

Thank you all so much! The black and white strip will work. The baby print will too. I thought about making them out of victoria secret bags. Wrapping paper is to light weight. The template fits on 8 1/2 by 11 paper, so 12X12 will be fine. A lot of great suggestions, I knew you all would help, thank...

Hi ladies, you all seem to be very resourceful I am hoping some one can help. I am making favors for my daughter's bridal shower. I can't seem to find a pink and white stripe paper. I need the stripes to be an inch or so wide. Any ideas what companies may make? I am making high heel shoes with the p...

 I'm jealous. It has been in the 90's here. I'm sick of sweating!!! I can't wait for the cool weather. Don't have to worry about snow in Southern California. Just fires......... I am hoping to wear sweaters and sweatshirts sometime this year.

 Our kids have always picked names out of a hat on Thanksgiving. Last year I put a limit on how much they could spend on their gifts. They all have different incomes and our youngest just got her first job. Needless to say, whoever recieved from the sibling who made more money lucked out. This year ...

 I live in Chatsworth. Usually not  a very news worthy place. People think L.A. busy ,lots of people, traffic........so on. This part of L.A. is still a very small community . We had helicopters flying over the house nonstop last night. Every time one went over we said a prayer, knowing there was so...

  I keep mine in their packages and put them in catagories  ( alpha, flourishs, words, ect...) on binder rings. Then I hang them on  shelfs with tea hooks.  They are in plain site and I can flip through them on the rings and take off the ones I want to use.

 I have made quite a few baby books.  I start with the pregnancy/shower, then the arrival/hospital. I work my way threw the first year milestones, and end with the first birthday. On the back page I make a pocket for a DVD. I also leave room for lots of journaling. I have made a few 8X8 postbound al...

 I was going to do the same thing this week end. I think you talked me right out of it.  I seem to have the same hobby.  I have not seriously scrapped in over a year. Just keep buying, hoping all the new stuff will inspire me to get off my butt.  So far not working. So I was going to try another rou...

 I live in the San Fernando Valley (L.A.) We were at 104 last week, and today it was 64 and windy with clouds....no tornados in our  area, but a friend of mine said it is like earthquake weather. Really don't need another one of those.

 I feel your pain.  My husband and I have  been going to the Colorado River for the past 10 years.  He loves the heat, I swear the man doesn't even break a sweat in 120 degrees. I, on the other hand melt.  I hate it.  We used to take our motorhome (housework on wheels). As our kids got older, they o...

Earth tones. Although lately I have been using a lot of pink anbd blues. I have been making baby books.

I am so going to do this. I don't have any round slide mounts, but couldn't you cut a circle out of chipboard, or maybe use a washer? So Cute! Thank you for the easy to follow directions.

Wasn't there a bunch of people on this board that made Oprah a scarpbook?  It was years ago.  What ever happened with that?   I watch her every once in awhile. Depends on the show topic. I will not be watching on Friday.Gayle
