Seriously, if you need to get some photos printed up, <a href="http://persnicketyprints.com/">these guys are my favorite</a>, by far. This coming from someone who is so cheap I wait months on end for Shutterfly or Snapfish to run a promotion before I'll upload and print the gazillion pics I have lingering on my iphone! They are the best, and worth every penny! And fast! <br />

Welcome to <a href="http://paperissues.blogspot.com/">Paper Issues</a> <b>Let Get Persnickety blog hop!</b> You should have arrived here from <a href="http://mrschez.typepad.com/iamthefamilyreporter/2013/06/lets-get-persnickity-with-paper-issues-persnickity-prints.html">Chez's blog</a>--if this is your first stop, be sure to head over to <a href="http://paperissues.blogspot.com/">Paper Issues</a> to start at the beginning! <br />

I used their <a href="http://persnicketyprints.com/creative/instagram-printing/202-12x12prints/new-2012/332-instagram3x3">free 3x3 Instagram template</a> to print out all my Instagram shots from 2012, and I LOVE the way it turned out. It's awesome being able to flip through, month by month, and see all those little moments of our life captured. After inserting all of my photos using photoshop, I printed the templates at 8x8, then slipped them into page protectors.<br />

I modified some spreads to have fewer pictures, because not every month had exactly 18 photos. This way I could include pages related to special events and trips, since I tended to take more Instagrams at those times anyways.<br />

<div class="separator" style="text-align: left;clear: both; ">Hey everyone, <a href="http://sukeydookiedoo.blogspot.com" target="_blank" title="">Judean</a> here to share a quick Valentine's wreath idea. These striped paper straws seem to be everywhere lately, I saw some in the dollar section of several big box stores recently. I used about 50, and cut 15 in half. Then, starting with the long ones, I glued them using my glue gun around a card stock circle. The middle section will be covered up later, so you don't have to worry too much about keeping the inner edges neat or even. I focused on getting them evenly distributed around the circle, and keeping the outer edges in line.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW0uK8yRCBKUHOCA9Ozog5Jyj7uKG10ISe_UbB4RJvB2UC8xQyrSgJGVrHi6ibvJrQDpBef2Ub7Ga1V0jVH4lvVU1ze5sJ78hkvm1pbTTu3HAIyhFrshawDWLN4bgTN6QlLPek90BVjYEG/s2048/Photo%252520Feb%2525203%25252C%2525202013%25252C%25252012%25253A50%252520PM.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW0uK8yRCBKUHOCA9Ozog5Jyj7uKG10ISe_UbB4RJvB2UC8xQyrSgJGVrHi6ibvJrQDpBef2Ub7Ga1V0jVH4lvVU1ze5sJ78hkvm1pbTTu3HAIyhFrshawDWLN4bgTN6QlLPek90BVjYEG/s500/Photo%252520Feb%2525203%25252C%2525202013%25252C%25252012%25253A50%252520PM.jpg" id="blogsy-1360344815452.8562" class="aligncenter" alt="" width="352" height="470"></a></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">Next I went in with the shorter straws and glued them in the spaces in between. Finally, I added a paper rosette and gitter-puffy-heart sticker to the the middle, and a ribbon on the back for hanging.</p>

You might not know this about me, but I love Basic Grey. It was my first scrapbooking crush, the first patterned paper that infiltrated my dreams...and still almost 5 years since I began the hobby, I still can't get enough.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's a page I made using Basic Grey Clippings:</div>

Here's another layout I made using the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/108301499/eclectic-slide-september-fitkit">September FitKit </a>from Paper Issues, that I am also linking up over at the blog. The theme is <a href="http://www.paperissues.blogspot.com/2012/09/tag-youre-it.html">"Tag You're It,"</a> see my tag tucked under the photo? There's some deep, personal journaling on there, hidden away from prying eyes. That's my favorite way to use tags--what's yours?

Well, I'm going to try and be a better blogger, now that the kiddos are all in school--two are in morning preschool three days a week, and the oldest in all day kindergarten --woohoo! I'm trying out a new to me blogging app on the iPad, so bear with me if this looks a little wonky...I'll get the hang of it eventually.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>I'm stopping by just to share a layout I made using the September fitkit from Paper Issues. It's full of everyday eclectic yumminess, and I can see merely using every last scrap of it! You should totally go get yourself one. Like now. <br/><br/><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_7HynILOtH2fUnaVrSNj6U_-q-UGsQqwJJ29ux7Ok_W3aTB_T-h2nSHmU7HEZ95lfa4UQ7623XZolUxaqvc5wtQ61IwYv8Bb2E7zkPM2afV4h66j2ZnUzFM9EU_4jMRMRrJW7ErHVORoT/s1717/Photo%252520Sep%25252013%25252C%2525202012%25252011%25253A37%252520AM.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_7HynILOtH2fUnaVrSNj6U_-q-UGsQqwJJ29ux7Ok_W3aTB_T-h2nSHmU7HEZ95lfa4UQ7623XZolUxaqvc5wtQ61IwYv8Bb2E7zkPM2afV4h66j2ZnUzFM9EU_4jMRMRrJW7ErHVORoT/s500/Photo%252520Sep%25252013%25252C%2525202012%25252011%25253A37%252520AM.jpg" id="blogsy-1347556461788.134" class="aligncenter" alt="" width="500" height="497"></a></div>
See what I mean? Totally fun. I dont know how to do links yet using this app, but you can get to the store by clicking the logo over there <----- in the sidebar. Oh, and don't forget to save 20 percent by using the code sukeydookiedoo.

I made the layout above and this next one using the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/99960663/bees-love-cantaloupe-scrapbooking-kit" target="_blank">coral version of the Honeycomb kit</a> Cassie has for sale in the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/paperissues">shop.</a> Even the tissue paper she wraps your order in coordinates with the kit--I used it above for the flowers and here for a photo mat:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

She also includes some die-cut hexagon shapes, perfect for using as a mask with all those fun mists that you buy and never use--hopefully that's not just me, is it? You can buy this kit AND get an extra 20% off your order at the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/paperissues">Paper Issues shop</a> by using the coupon code <b>Sukeydookiedoo</b> when you check out!<br />
<br />
Here's my last layout--I used the inner part of the paper I cut out to make the frame in the first layout (waste not want not). <br />

Her mama chose owls for the party's theme (<a href="http://creativeeveryday.com/creativeeveryday/2012/05/guess-whoooo-turned-one.html" target="_blank">Guess Whooo's Turning One</a>), and I couldn't resist making this guy to hang up during the party. I basically enlarged the owl design from the invitation, and then added the feathers on his chest using my giant scallop punch and kraft cardstock. I was inspired by an owl I spotted on pinterest, <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/248190629434758897/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

I used patterned paper from My Mind's Eye and from a DCWV stack I found in Joanne's. Those are vintage buttons for the eyes, and of course, red glitter thickers and baker's twine for the banner!<br />

I was hoping this yummy AC Chap line was going to inspire me, but looking at these some of these now, I cringe. <br />

I also don't know why fifty percent of my project pictures are coming out of my camera super blurry, while the other fifty percent are fine...but I suspect it may have something to do with a certain 2 year-old who likes to stick his finger into the lens!<br />

You can barely make out the stitching I did on the one above, it took like for-evah, for very little impact. boooo! Look at those twinnies up on the dining room table! We've got some serious monkey-see-monkey-do-itis here in this house!<br />

I do really like the colors in this one. And the picture. And the stickers, which you probably can't read because it's blurry.<br />

I like this one too. But I am totally firing my camera! Look, I used my new Jenni Bowlin punch, those little label tabs on the left. LOVE! And every single picture I have scrapped has been from my phone, and instagrammed as well...I guess we know the reason for that, now don't we? Consider yourself warned, camera!<br />

We just received confirmation that she'll be going to our neighborhood schoool, the same one D. attended growing up. Kindergarten! It's a whole new chapter.<br />
<br />
But I want to remember the cute little baby that stole my heart almost 5 years ago, and what better way than a mini album commemorating each of her birthdays!?<br />

I added some Pink Paislee's Soiree embellishments, Sassafrass chipboard, vintage book pages, and vellum. <br />
<br />
It's so fun looking back at these pictures of my girl on each of her birthdays! I included pages so that I'll be able to include her upcoming birthdays as well :)<br />

Today I am excited to show you a project that's been a little while coming--our Vacation Smash Book! Back in February we took our first-family-of-five vacation (other than up to the lake, which while it is a fun time away, for some reason doesn't have the chillin' on vaca vibe to it) It felt like quite an accomplishment, and I am proud that we wrangles all 3 kiddos on an airplane and through customs etc. etc. etc.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/97343984/mini-folio-smash-journal-book-by-k-and" target="_blank">Mini Smash book</a> seemed like an ideal travel journal, although to be honest I only completed 2 pages or so while on the actual trip...It was the first time I tried scrapping on the road, and the challenge of not having the actual pictures in front of me proved to be too much. Having the book with me, however, was a helpful reminder to collect memorabilia and make note of some details which are easy to lose track of with 3 little ones.<br />

Washi tape seemed like the obvious choice for the cover. That teeny flower embellishment shouldn't be there, and I'll probably add a title...<br />

That's most of the pages, a few were pretty text-heavy so a little less interesting in photographs. I used lots of random stickers, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/92805219/secret-pockets-for-smash-journal-book-by" target="_blank">these</a> mini pockets, tape, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/94082815/18-colors-of-bakers-twine-from-the" target="_blank">twine</a>, and doo-dads. <br />

I made these two cards using American Crafts patterned paper and embellishment, and of course, tape! There are a couple ways to make the chevron pattern using tape--the ever-creative Leah Farquharson did <a href="http://hamblyscreenprints.typepad.com/screen_prints_blog/2012/02/easy-chevron-pattern-with-washi-tape-dt-tutorial-by-leah.html#comments">one demo here at Hambly</a>, which I wish I had seen <i>before</i> I did mine, because it's so simple!<br />

I used <a href="http://studiocalico.typepad.com/studio_calico/2011/12/jenn.html">Jennifer McGuire's tutorial</a> at Studio Calico for my process, just swapping in washi tape for the patterned paper. It kind of made my brain hurt, but once I started laying down the tape at the correct angle (45 degrees works), it came together pretty quickly!<br />

One last thing, I have a new coupon code for the Paper Issues Etsy store--and it's for <b>20% off</b>! Anything in the store--and there are tons of great paper-crafting goodies--more NEW STUFF arriving daily.

Yep, still using up that SC kit from October--it's like the gift that keeps on giving! Love that woodgrain paper from Pebbles--it's kraft and the perfect background paper, IMO!<br />

This one is a bit of an experiment gone wrong--it didn't turn out at all like I pictured in my head. Oh well, I think it goes with the blurry pictures that are definitely less than perfect as well!<br />

Finally, one about all of Sadie's nicknames--my favorite of which is her own name for herself--Sissy. "Sissy do it," is a refrain I hear many, many times in a day. Too cute! This is using Studio Calico's Handmade kit, and in response to a <a href="http://studiocalico.typepad.com/studio_calico/2012/01/ch-1.html">challenge to journa</a>l in the "dead space" of a photo. <br />

I mean, just the experience of spending your day with little people changes your outlook on life. Oh, what's that I am sitting on, a can of ravioli in the seat cushions of the couch?--totally normal. Peter throwing a fit because I won't let him carry the plunger around the house--no biggie. Being so fried at the end of dinner that I make a "nobody talk to anybody" rule--this doesn't happen in your house? Leaving the house in my slippers, shrugging as the shopping cart goes careening across the parking lot unattended, because I can't do a damn thing about it with 2 two-year olds to keep safe--ah, f#%k it. I don't even know who I am anymore, I am so immersed in toddler-dom and preschooler-hood. What graduate degree, what salary, what clothes that don't have the word "yoga" in their name, what adult conversation? <br />
<br />
Anyways, I don't want to sound like I am complaining, because I am doing exactly what I want to be right now--but this job is really flipping hard! So, here are some scrapbook pages to look at--they make my life look much more fun than it actually is on a day to day basis, but that's why this hobby is so great--you get to focus on the happy moments. And who doesn't benefit from that?<br />

Instead of taking pictures like I normally do, I scanned each half these pages and then used Photoshop to stitch them together. So they look a little crazy--but it has been overcast and raining here the last 2 days, so...<br />

I'm still using up the Studio Calico Field Guide kit from October (which I also combined with the Add-on paper), plus I used a <a href="http://studiocalico.typepad.com/studio_calico/2012/01/its-sunday-sketch-time-weve-got-a-fun-one-for-you-to-tackle-this-week-from-stephanie-dagans-january-country-fair-gallery.html">sketch from the SC blog</a> on that top one--love how it came out, and I would never think of those diagonals on my own!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02556635920009525666noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714675273851628947.post-33463453812913482012-01-11T20:06:00.000-05:002012-01-11T20:08:32.120-05:00Scrapbooking helps keep me sane...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Seriously, with 2 two-year-olds and four-year old, I need all the help I
can get. Even if it's just 15 minutes to think about something other
than diapers, crackers, and Polly-pockets, it makes a huge difference in
my outlook! </div>

Especially when it means looking at fabulous summertime pics--it's so nice to be transported to warmer times outdoors while we're stuck in the doldrums of winter!<br />
<br />
The layout above and the next 3 are all made using Studio Calico's October (I think?) kit. I am glad I got these pictures scrapped--some good memories here :)<br />

I used the latest <a href="http://scrapjacked.blogspot.com/2012/01/kelly-purkey-youve-been-jacked.html">Scrapjack</a> for this one--Kelly Purkey is great inspo--I had such fun lifting her layout! I love the stack of rainbow-colored patterned paper along the right of the pictures--the colors in the SC kit were a perfect match for these fall photos...<br />

Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas and a fun-filled New Year to you...that just about sums up all I've missed!<br />
<br />
I guess I'm finally ready to come out of hibernation and post here--not that it hasn't been a productive past few weeks, just that I haven't made time for sad lil' neglected blog. I have a few projects to share, and I'll be back in a couple days with a few more--it's kind of nice to have a bunch to get caught up on!<br />
<br />
Here are some pages I made last year:<br />

<br />
Finally, here's a project I made for my Grammie for Christmas--cuz you never can have enough pics of the grand/great-grandchildren!<br />

Let me point out that this little box is only 6 bucks, and it's infinitely customizable--love that! I also used some trim, tiny clothespins and JB doily flowers from the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/paperissues">shop</a>, along with some vintage buttons and other bits from my stash. I'm linking this up to the <a href="http://paperissues.blogspot.com/2011/12/weve-got-your-number.html">Paper Issues linky party too</a>--the theme is "We've got your number"--anything that uses paper goes!<br />

<br />
I used <a href="http://scrapjacked.blogspot.com/2011/11/tara-anderson-youve-been-jacked.html">Scrapjacked's</a> latest lift to make this layout:<br />

Those little resin mushrooms were made by my talented friend <a href="http://www.jaylynnscraps.com/">Jamie</a>, I swear there's not a single creative thing she can't do!<br />
<br />
And I used Pencil Line's <a href="http://www.pencillines.com/2011/11/sketch-259.html">sketch #259</a> for this next one:<br />

<br />
Anyways, I want to share a layout I made for Paper Issue's <a href="http://paperissues.blogspot.com/2011/11/thankful-for-fall.html">Thankful for Fall theme</a>...you still have a couple more days to link up!<br />

I am happy to enjoy fall for a bit more, thankyouverymuch!<br />
