Quote Book ~ Quotes To Add To Your Book

I thought I would do the quotes today to add to your quote book...

~"Happy times are never ending when we're playing and pretending!"

~"You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover's arms can only come later when you're sure they won't laugh if you trip."  

~"Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional."

~"Photographers are violent people. First they frame you, then they shoot you, then they hang you on the wall."  

~"Runs with decorative scissors." 


I thought I would share some "Fun" type quotes today. With my family visiting I thought these type of quotes were fitting. Anyway, don't forget to stop back again for more quotes next week...and I wanted to add...no idea who or where I got these quotes...I've been saving them to use for my scrapbook pages / cards. So enjoy the quotes!

Notebook For Auction ~ Operation Smile

Today I thought I would share the notebook I made over the weekend. I was able to take a photo of it yesterday...well, I made the cover...I bought the actual notebook from Walmart...just so we are clear. :) I used the last of my Dreamin' paper (X7142B). I really need to buy another pack. I just love this paper pack! I also used a few stickers from the Dreamin' My Stickease Assortment (X7142C). The stamp I used on the front cover is from "10 Things" (C1474). I am going to give it to CTMH at Leadershare Day for the auction to help raise money for Operation Smile. I think the notebook came out cute...what do you think?

I thought I would share the tutorial that Close To My Heart put on youtube to share with you some fun ideas on using "Newsprint Rub-ons" (Z1388). The product is set up to make it super easy to use. I thought you would enjoy seeing the video since the rub-ons can really add a little something to your scrapbook pages or cards. So, check out the video and have some fun!

Elemental Paper Pack ~ Look At This Beautiful Scrapbook Page!

Over the weekend I made a really cute notebook but haven't taken any photos yet. I will try to post it on Wednesday. So, in the meantime, I thought I would share a photo to give you some more ideas on what you can make with the "Elemental" paper pack. I really like that you can use this paper for just about any theme. On this scrapbook page they also used the new "Decor Journaling Spots" (Z1461) and the "Color-Ready Alphabets Cork" (Z1450). Also, the stamp set "Love Life" (D1482) was used. So, go through your photos to see which ones will go with this paper and get an order in!    

Elemental ~ Workshop On The Go Kit ~ Paper Packs ~ How-To Books ~ Check Out These Cute Scrapbook Pages!!

Today I thought I would share the paper pack "Elemental" with you. You can buy the Workshop On The Go (G1026). It comes with: Level 2 paper pack, a special stamp set (can only get this set if you buy the wotg kit), a pack of Just Blooms Flutter Paper Shapes, Antiqued Copper Designer Brads, & a workshop guide (directions to make some scrapbook layouts). If your not really into stamping you can buy the paper pack (X7141B) and the Elemental Complements Dimensional Elements (X7141C) and make your own designs up (or you can use one of our great "How To" books). Either way, you'll have some fabulous scrapbook pages and/or cards. And, if you are into stamping...we have 2 sets that go great with this paper..."Love Life" (D1482) and "Zoology" (B1391). I wasn't too sure about this paper but after seeing some artwork with it I can see some of my photos getting done with this paper. One thing I do like is that you can use it with just about any photos...there is no set theme with this paper. So, check it out and see what you can make with it!

Quote Book ~ Quotes To Add To Your Book

I thought I would do the quotes today to add to your quote book...

~"When I asked for all things so that I might enjoy life, I was given life so that I might enjoy all things."

~"You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love."  

~"To do anything truly worth doing I must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in with gusto and scramble through as well as I can."

~"You can't bring back the past, and you're not promised the future, so enjoy life now."  

~"When we are motiviated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing, then we truly live life." 


I thought I would share some "Joy" type quotes today. With the rain and cooler weather we are having I was feeling a little down so I thought these kind of quotes might help. Anyway, don't forget to stop back again for more quotes next week...and I wanted to add...no idea who or where I got these quotes...I've been saving them to use for my scrapbook pages / cards.
