ckmagazine jessica sprague 9 photo layou I was poking about on Creating Keepsakes website this afternoon, and found this great video tutorial from Jessica Sprague.

CLICK HERE to read her article!

If you read down far enough, you’ll see there’s a FREE KIT from of Michelle Coleman from LittleDreamerDesigns.com. There’s no preview, but I downloaded it and it’s cute!  Over 4 downloads you get 5 papers, 5 elements, and an alpha!

So check it out, watch the tutorial and learn how to use the “grid” function in PSE and PS, and get inspired!

Happy Scrapping!

TOTALLY off topic - but for you moms…

Posted: August 18th, 2008 by bigscrapkitty

There’s this pastor who does these little videos and they’re really thought provoking.  His name is Rob Bell and the series is called nooma.  He just released a new one, and you can see it on facebook until noon on Wednesday.

Do yourself a favor and watch this!  Hang in there till the end, it’s very moving.  Confirms what I think we all know down deep somewhere - Motherhood is God’s work!

I think you probably have to have facebook to see it, but it’s worth it.  No matter what your religious convictions, there’s great food for thought there!

Quick Tip Time… but first…

Posted: July 29th, 2008 by bigscrapkitty

We’ve been really busy this week - we hosted a Girl Scout Troop from Michigan that was passing thru on their way to Disney World:

Then the Grandparents and a cousin are here this week, so we’re doing all the touristy stuff…

Mining for Gems at the Lost Sea:

(YES, Twila, we’ll take you there if you want! ) It’s cool, a cave you get a boat ride in, then they have a great little shopping village and for 5 bucks the kids can use the sluice to ‘find’ gems in a bag of dirt!

BUT… despite it all… DH made you guys a Quick Tip Tuesday over at Scrappers’ Workshop!!

Go take a look, and you’ll know why I keep that guy around!!

Happy Scrapping!
