Giveaways

I've got tons of great giveaways going on lately at various blogs I write. Check them out, you could win something fabulous:

Over at the Jess and Ashlee blog you can win a copy of Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner. If you loved Good in Bed, you will love this book. It's a sequel to the book and the continuation of Cannie. Find out what happens now that Joy is entering her teens.

At the Beautiful Words blog, I have the appropriately titled Beautifully Pinned Promises book by Mary Grace Birkhead. This is a lovely book with plenty of inspiration to guide you.

Over at the new Blisstree blog, I have a Walk Slim DVD by Leslie Sansone. This DVD contains 4 fast miles and best of all? It's all done in your home.

Also at Blisstree is the Teen Walk giveaway. When I was a kid we biked and walked everywhere, but today is a different world!

Enter any one of these giveaways, or all of them! Good luck!

Giveaways Galore!

There's a lot more going on at Gossip on Sports, like a Day of the Dead DVD and the awesome book The Bambino Secret.

Dollar Store Scrapbook Finds

The great thing about the dollar store is that you can find stuff all the time. It might not be the stuff you want at the moment, but they turn over their inventory enough that if you go from time you're bound to spot something you can use.

I came across these letter stickers for $1 (obviously) and they worked out great for adding dimension to my pages.

Deals of the Week

Got a few deals this week I really wanted to share.

At Big Lots, they had books for $8 and chipboard letters for $1.

The chipboard pieces matched the lettering I got a few weeks back. The book, as you can see, is customizable and has a very cute pattern. Not bad for under $10.

Digital Scrapbooking

Okay, this technology is pretty darn cool.

And easy to use.

It's a digital scrapbooking site that lets you upload photos and easily drop them into pages to create a unique scrabook. You can choose a premade theme or you can create on from scratch.

I clicked over just to check it out, and within minutes I had created a new page, complete with cool theme, pictures, and journaling.

I can see a lot of potential to this. You can share your photos with far away friends and loved ones, or create a unique slideshow to highlight a project.

Tags as Scrapbook Enhancements

Sometimes scrapbooking cheaply is merely looking at all the other items you see in a different way. For example, I recently bought some candles, and they had a tag with the price on one side and this:



on the other side. Of course, I knew it was too cute not to use! I cut it up and put it on a scrapbook page:



The picture and journaling are removed from this as it's a personal page, but I wanted to share the idea with you.)
