Urban Prairie

October 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Basic Grey is well, nothing short of cool. I got wind of the new line they are calling Urban Prairie and, I must say, I like what I see. I have always been more about sensibility…. lasting trends and timeless looks rather than fading short lived fads. I think this line has a look that [...]

Family Trees

October 25, 2008 | 1 Comment

Okay, so many folks have a few nuts in the family tree….me, maybe a bit more than most. What I find fundamentally cool is the fact that it is those quirky nuts that continually feed our muse and give us unlimited material to document in the ole’ family album. Scrapbooking is about celebrating the quirky, [...]

Making Memories surprised the crafting industry with a portable hand held die cutting tool…. being the gadget junkie I am, I had to check it out for myself. I was personally impressed with the ease in use and the fact that it could fit in my basic crafting kit. I think more and more folks [...]

October 13, 2008 | 1 Comment

Okay, I admit it, I am a total iPhone junkie. I have noticed that I have over 2000 pictures now on my phone… many of which are of my kids doing random funny things that I just don’t want to forget. I started thinking about this. Scrapbooking can take on many forms. With the ever [...]

Panglossian

October 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment

It’s a real word, rare and seldom used but, real nonetheless…..it means, ” A Person who is optimistic regardless of the circumstances.” I thought this was an appropriate thing to think about in lieu of the current economic conditions around the globe. So why optimistic when there could be nothing left in the bank you [...]

Scrapbook Paige

October 8, 2008 | 3 Comments

Scrapbook Paige is a family oriented, addictive “hidden object” game that is addictive for adults who like “find a word” style games. Overall I think it’s a great game to try and would be well worth considering for your kids who are keen to play with your scapbook supplies.
*Paige (the girls name) needs your designer’s [...]

Recession Crafting

October 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment

There is no question that the economy is on everyone’s mind. I would hazard a guess that most people did not know that recessions and times of uncertainty have been historically good times for those in the crafting industry. It is not hard to connect the dots really….people decide to make stuff rather than spend [...]

Learning to Scrap

October 6, 2008 | Leave a Comment

How did you start scrapbooking? Was it at a friend’s house, did you attend a convention, or perhaps, sat in on a class in your local scrapbooking store? Most likely, if we are to believe the industry reports, you were invited by someone and the rest was, as they say, the proverbial history of the [...]
