Tip of the Week!

Always keep a full supply of cards on hand so that you do not have to run out at an inconvenient time to get a card for some occasion or gift.

How many times have you had to stop at the store on the way to the birthday party to pick out the card? I always keep cards handy for those unexpected moments also, such as get well and sympathy cards. This makes it much easier to send your well wishes and prayers in a timely fashion!

New Tip of the Week!!

For this week's tip, I wanted to share something that I am always doing.
I am constanting thinking of things that I need to do, people I need to call, or errands that I have to run. To combat the fact that I could never remembered anything, I started keeping a small notebook (Ok, its a full size legal pad!) in my purse for whenever that little thought hits my brain! I write everything down, even something that I need to put on the grocery list at home! I even have used it to doodle my next scrapbook layout and journaling that I need to do! Its the best idea that I have ever had; because I can now claim that I have an excellent memory and people are always calling me very organized now! Trust me, I'm not!!
Every couple of days or so, my sheet is very scribbled up (I have to cross off the items that I actually do!) so I just rewrite the list on the next page, in order of priority and recycle the used up sheet!! The list is always shorter and I feel like I have gotten things accomplished! Who doesn't like feeling productive?
Let me know what you think of this little tip!
Have a great evening! Megan :-)

So Sorry for being MIA!

My father in law had to be placed in a nursing home for hospice care this week and I haven't been by the computer very much. I will be posting the tips of the week later today.

~ New ~ Tip of the Week!

Well, I have decided to start giving out a Tip of the Week. These tips could include scrapbooking and crafting ideas/tips, everyday living, frugal lifestyles or anything else that I feel like writing about! Do you have an idea for a Tip of the Week? Let me know by leaving a comment and we will see what we can come up with together!!



Tip of the Week #1
Save time when scrapping by multitasking!
For example...as the ink dries on your design, work on your journaling or placement. Another example: try to create the all the elements for a page at the same time, such as similar embellishments or photo mats, to save time. Always be on the look out for ways to make the process easier for you. The more you watch for ways to save time, the quicker you will get.
But most importantly ~ Have Fun with your project!!
