February Desktop Wallpaper

2012-01-31T12:16:00.000-07:00

Pin It I have the February Desktop Wallpaper Freebie all ready for you! I added one more Widescreen layout for you. The 1366x768 size works great for my laptop widescreen monitor, but the 1280x800 works better for my 24" Monitor. I don't have a regular size monitor so I hope the 1280x1024 has been working great for you guys. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. Just comment below.

Template 8

2012-01-23T17:45:00.000-07:00

Wow, it sure has been a while since I've offered a free digital template for you ... let alone scrapbook myself. So that is what I did this wonderful Monday! I made a 2-page template for you and even scrapbooked using it!

There are spots for lots of photos or you can use them all or less by adding elements or digital patterned paper. If you want to download you can do so by clicking here or by clicking the preview.

And because I actually got my page done, here's what mine looked like!

Christmas Tags from Santa

2011-12-19T00:09:00.000-07:00

Remember this post from Memory Clips? Well, they also just shared a free Christmas Tag Label. I made some up to use for my Santa Gifts. {shh... don't tell my kids ...} I thought they were really fun. I also printed some other labels that are completely different (but forgot to save to show you) that are from me and their dad. I just printed them on Avery Sticker Paper and it is easy-peasy ... peel and stick onto the gifts! Love it!

Go to Memory Clips to get your own labels.

2011-12-15T04:03:00.000-07:00

I'm sure most of you are already followers of Our Best Bites. I found out about them last year and then bought myself their cookbook for Mother's Day. {hee hee} I love their recipes and the way they explain how to make them. They make it easy to understand for someone like me who doesn't/hasn't cooked a whole lot or doesn't like to really. I've actually been excited and wanted to try some things because of their cute blog! Here's a link to their Chocolate Fudge.

Kiki Creates

2011-12-14T04:44:00.000-07:00

I stumbled upon this blog from Pinterest. She has a cute hybrid calendar for December that I thought of making. And she has a post on fitness that I think is really great and the tutorial for these Christmas Treat Buckets is so fun! I really love this "I Love You Because" sign she has to share with her kids. She has it for sale. I think it would be fun to buy or make something similar to do with my kids.

Activity Book

2011-12-09T06:22:00.000-07:00

I thought this book was pretty cute. I need to get my sewing machine out of storage and actually working before I can do this ... but for those of you with it dusted off ... what a fun project! Jen Allyson also provides other fun tutorials and scrapbook freebies on her blog. She designs for DHD designs which is also a great scrapbooking resource.

Ok, so honestly, if you need some ideas ... and I mean an overload of ideas ... then you should check out Pinterest. You do need an invite from someone to join but you will be so glad you did. If you need an invite, email me and I will invite you. I've gotten so many wonderful ideas from this place.

What you do, is when you find a blog with great ideas that you want to remember, you "pin it" to a "board" (like a bulletin board) and you can save all of these ideas for when you have "time" to do them. It really is great! Don't just take my word for it ... go try it out!

For the crafty ...

2011-12-07T09:56:00.000-07:00

This blog has three sisters who share different ideas and tutorials for crafts and things. They also sponsor many give-a-ways and fun things like that. I really enjoy all their fun ideas. Here is a link to some Christmas ideas they have posted.

How to use my free Desktop Wallpapers.

2011-12-06T10:53:00.001-07:00

I've had several of my readers ask how to use the desktop backgrounds I offer on my blog. I'll show you one easy way that will just take a minute to do whether your using Windows or a Mac.

You'll first want to pick which size desktop to download. It all depends on the size of your monitor. Either desktop calendar will look fine on your computer, but if you get the one that relates to the size of your computer monitor it will look best. Click on the link or the picture of your choice to download the desktop background to your computer.

When you click on one of those links, a new window will pop up. You will then right click on the background and save it to your computer. You can save it to a new folder called Desktop Backgrounds or just save it to your desktop.

Now that you have the new background downloaded to your computer go to where you saved it and right click that image. A box will pop up and you'll want to click 'Set as Desktop Background'.

If you use a Mac you'll do pretty much the same thing. When you right click on the desktop background image, a box will pop up and you'll want to click 'Set Desktop Picture'. Click that and you're done!

If you'd like to customize your desktop with a picture, I will be doing a tutorial for those soon.

All my desktops are for personal use only. No commercial use or redistribution. Please contact me if you have any other questions about their use. Thanks!

You'll need a place to print your Cards and Pages ...

2011-12-05T09:10:00.000-07:00

... and Persnickety Prints is the place to do it. I love their customer service. I just ordered from them and they sent me the wrong size. I called them and I had the correct size sent back to me in two days. The first order only took two days to get to me as well. The quality is great and professional and their prices compete. The prices are lower than most I compare them too.

Their blog offers many freebies and tutorials as well. I just love Persnickety Prints!
