Behind the Scrapbook

June 19, 2010 by GingerScraps

Good morning all. Welcome to this weeks edition of Behind the Scrapbook…. the real lives of Ginger Scraps! This is the place to find out all the juicy gossip on our Ginger Scraps team! Let’s se what I was able to dig up this week…

First up is Tabby…

The Scrapberry house is eating, sleeping, and breathing baseball. The oldest boy is playing rec ball and also plays tournament ball. He is an awesome little player and actually scored the tying run that took them into a 10 inning game on Friday night and then came into pitch in the 9th and 10th innings to strike out two batters in a row, unfortunately the third batter was able to send the ball soaring over the fence but hey, that was due to a good pitch right? He makes them proud . So yes, she is one of those moms that sits on the side line yelling and screaming her head off and she’s been known to argue with the umps a few times too 😛

Oh and here’s a little tip from Miss Scrapberry herself… if you need to know how to get that red clay out of those white ball pants, the secret is soap called “Fels Naptha”!

I also found out that Mandy had a little excitement last weekend. The Mandymade family lives on an acreage and have a few horses, dogs, cats and a whole lot of grass and yard work! SO working as a team every weekend you’ll find everyone doing their favorite jobs. Mandy (the boss) is head weed whacker, weed puller and cook. Kelsey (16) is head sun tanner and pool bug scooper. Mark (the hubby) is in charge of the house build and bring home the bacon guy. And they are very happy to report that Julie (their youngest offspring) has graduated to mowing queen!! Yup that’s right she even has her own mower! Here is a staged photo… they had to stage it because she mows at warp 9 and is usually just a blur….

SO little miss mows-a-lot was doing her thing and Mandy was supervising she found two featherless baby birds laying in the grass. After closer inspection they found the nest 30 feet above in the peak of the tin roof. So along came Mark with his trusty ladder. They had a look in the nest… no babies and it was baking hot! So they brought the babies in the house and warmed them with a hot water bottle. Mandy with her mad web skills found a great organization that rescues wild animals. The very helpful ladies at Wildlife Rehabilitation Society of Edmonton had them build a nest, place the babies in it and supervise it to see if any birds come to claim them. The nest the birds built in the peak was unsuitable as it was built under a tin roof and had no way of keeping the babies from falling out. So after an hour no birds had claimed them. So we packed up the babies and drove them to the Wildlife Rehab Center. They checked out fine even though they had fallen 30 feet… and they also found out they were Starlings! The Center is going to nurse them back to health and when they are ready to be released Julie gets to do the honors! How fun is that! After all the excitement they realized they didn’t even take one photo! But no worries they will have camera in hand for the release! Check back for updates! We will keep you posted:)

So I’ve been Stalking the ladies at GS for some time now and I stumbled across this….

Did you hear? Rachel A.K.A Pretty in Green has been busy getting her store ready? We are so excited to have her join our fabulous team! This is a preview of some product she’s been working on. I don’t know about you but I’m super excited and can’t wait to see more!!! Look for her Grand opening in July!

Well that’s about it for this week…. come back next Saturday and I’ll be sure to dig up some more dirt! Till then happy scrapping and I’m sure I’ll see you around the forum…. BTW just wondering, what’s your favorite GS challenge this month?? Mine has to be Bite My Head Off! I’m off to find a photo to play with!

Let’s Get Crafty: Duct Tape

June 17, 2010 by GingerScraps

It’s Thursday! Time to get crafty! Let’s talk about Duct Tape. I love Duct Tape. My boys think you can fix anything with the stuff! But…it’s not only for sticking things together. You can make fun stuff with it. It comes in tons of colors now! My son Chris makes wallets to give his friends. You can make purses, flowers, bows, even cloths! Check out these Prom Outfits!

Pretty crazy huh! Can you imagine!

Now me, I like to make bows and flowers. The bows are super simple and take no time at all. They look so cute in the hair!

I found a UTube Video on how to make them and now I can whip them right up!

My very favorite Duct Tape project is the flowers! I love making them. They are so cute and people freak when I tell them it’s Duct Tape!

These ones have pin backs on them. They look so cute pinned on my Jean jacket, or top, or even pinned on my tote bag.

This one is on a Bobby Pin, right in my nieces hair.

I love these! You want to learn how to make some! I pretty much followed THIS Tutorial I came across one day. I do it pretty much the same way, but used thread since I didn’t have fishing line, and I sew my buttons on with embroidery floss. I have a thing about empty button holes. LOL! I can stand to see them glues on with no thread going through the holes. Anal..I know. I also added some leaves to mine.

But, aren’t these just the cutest things!

You know you want to make some! Got for it! You will love them. Oh and BTW, you can get all these Duct Tape colors at Target, or any craft store!

Have Fun!

Challenge Spotlight – The Mix

June 14, 2010 by GingerScraps

Are you all loving our new blog schedule? Fun stuff all around. Make sure to check the blog every day!

Sadly no one commented on last weeks challenge spotlight and so I have no one to give my prize to. 🙁 Maybe we’ll have better luck this week.

Today I’m spotlighting a brand new challenge at Gingerscraps. Mandy’s June Mix. The Mix is challenge that mixes up every month. You never know what it will be, but it will always be some great new challenge!

This month Mandy created a great layout for you to scraplift with one rule – create a LO capturing your favorite summer activity or memory from the past! This can be from way in the past, or last summer, or even yesterday if you really want it to be. 😉 Here’s her fantastic LO:

To help you with the scraplift Mandy has suggested you choose 3 things from this LO and make them your own!
It can be anything from color, white space, photo placement, photo edits, journaling placement, ellie cluster, rounded corners… or anything else you can pick out.
You may also add anything else you wish.

Here’s one that Cath has done

by Cath

Sounds fun huh? I think so! So head over the the June Mix and make your own! Then come back here and post the link to your LO in the gallery and post it in a comment here. Next week I’ll randomly select one and that person will win a prize from ME! (Harmonystar). CT & those who have already done the challenge are elligable. Let me see those comments!

The Dish

June 13, 2010 by GingerScraps

Well are you ladies ready to Dish it up? I know I am. This will be a joint effort by myself, and Tabby from Scrapberry Designs. I guess I should introduce myself also. I am Teri from Teri’s Thing-O-My-Jigs. So each week we will be answering your questions that are posted in our forum here. This should be fun and feel free to ask away. We will do our best to dish it up to you on a silver platter! Each week we will answer a few of the questions asked and will try to cover all of them if time permits.

Pretty in Green writes: how do you convert a non-scraper in to a scraper or a digi-scraper at that?

Pretty, I would say the best way to convert a non-scraper into a scrapper is to share your passion with them. Show them some of the things that you have created. Let them see the immediate gratification that you get when you take a photo and make it a memory. Introduce them to sites, Gingerscrap’s should be on the top of your list, to let them get familiar with the variety of kits out there. Hook them up in the forum so they feel like they have a source and a place to ask questions. Digi-Scrapping is like Lay’s potato chips, no one can scrap just one! Hope that will encourage you to go out and share you passion with your friends and family. They will be glad you did.

Julie writes: I have a question…What are you giving your hubby for Fathers Day?

A few weeks ago, I was in San Antonio and watching the local morning show and they had an author on there, doing a promotion on a book he had written called “The Fourth Fisherman” by Joe Kissack. I was very intrigued with what he had to say and put in in the back of my mind to get for my hubby and for my dad too. I tried to find it at Barnes and Noble and also at our local Christian Book Store, but I think as of now, its only available through the website. If you are intersted, you can check it out here. Here is what they say others are saying about this book:

What people are saying about the book:

“People of faith, myself included, often put limitations on it. But, as you’ll read here, real freedom comes when we finally surrender to the mystery of God and what He is doing. Thank you Joe for being so honest and real. I loved it!”
–Jeff Foxworthy, Standup Comedian, Best Selling Author, and TV Personality
“We love this message. Joe weaves together two stories with the same central theme, ‘being lost and adrift’ and how one thing–faith in God–provided each of the Four Fishermen the courage and comfort to face the next day and its uncertainties, and ultimately lead them safely to shore. These are the stories that we hold tight in our memories–
when days seem so uncertain and doubts scream at us that we’ll never find the shore.”
–Shaunti & Jeff Feldhahn, Best Selling Authors, For Women Only, For Men Only
“Joe is an ordinary guy that has been given an extraordinary story. He answered a call that few will ever get a chance to say yes to, let alone hear. I wish it could have been me.”
–Steve Bartkowski, NFL Football Legend, Outdoorsman, Motivational Speaker
“You won’t be able to put this book down. It is more than the true story of three courageous fishermen and one brave author. Believe it or not, hidden within their inspiring stories, is your story. It is the belief that life is bigger than we think. It is the hope of wanting our lives to have purpose. It’s all there. If you’re looking to find that hope, a common purpose and a reason to still believe, you’ve come to the right place. But be warned. The journey begins when you board this boat…”
–Jeff Henderson, Pastor, Northpoint Ministries, Buckhead Church

Sounds interesting huh? I am hoping that my men will like it.
Last one for this week was asked by Barbara. She writes: What do you consider to be a good day?”

As a 16 year breast cancer survivor, ( I was 36 when diagnosed ) any day is a good day to me! I am blessed to be alive and try to live each to the fullest. While I am not always successful, it is a goal of mine. I did learn some valuable life lessons while facing the possibility of dying from cancer. I had a wonderful role model as my own mother fought the battle herself until she could no longer fight and she died when she was 47. But, as a testimony to the Lord, she would say that ” if that’s what it took for her to know the Lord, she would go through it all again.” So while I won my battle, It did teach me to enjoy each day, and not to get all wrapped up in things that don’t have eternal value. I hope that this will make us all take a look at what is a good day and choose to enjoy this one! I had a girl friend who used to say to me, This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. I still say this to myself quite often! Remember its a choice!

Until next time… Create, Inspire and Share!

Let’s Get Crafty: Hybrid Graduation

June 10, 2010 by GingerScraps

Today is the first of our new Thursday “Let’s Get Crafty” Feature! I will be sharing with you all kinds of crafty goodness! Hybrid of course will be one of the many topics we will cover!

Today I will be showing you how to make a Hybrid Graduation Cap Greeting Card from the New Template in the GingerScraps Store by Wyld Web Designs!

This was Charmaine’s very first try at designing a hybrid template and she did a fabulous job! Perfect timing for me too! My niece graduates High School on Friday! So let’s get started.

What I used for this project was…

The Graduation Cap Template, A digi paper in the color you want you cap to be. I also used the perfect Word Art for this project! The Graduation Day Word Art by, Kathy Winters at GingerScraps. I also used the Doodle Borders by GingerScraps.

You will also need a printer and some nice card stock or Matte photo paper to print on, a glue stick or some tape something to score your folds, and some ribbon to make a tassel!

The first step is to design your card in Photoshop (or whatever program you use to digi scrapbook) Its is so easy with this template, you just clip you paper to the layers. Then add the word art. This took me like 2 minutes! Maybe even less. Then print it out on your photo setting of your printer.

After the ink is nice and dry cut it out and score on the dashed lines. You should always score before folding for nice crisp folds.

Now fold on the lines you just scored.

Now glue the curved piece together to make the bottom of the cap and glue it to the bottom of the card. Just put glue on the tabs and press it on with your bone folder or a Popsicle stick or something. Just to make a nice good hold.

You can add a little tape too if you would like. Now for the tassel, you can always just go buy a tassel at the craft store, but, I didn’t have any tassels on hand so I just took a few pieces of ribbon about 6 inches long each, folded them in half and tie another piece of ribbon around the top to hold them together.

Punch a hole in the corner of your card and tie the tassel on with another piece of ribbon! So simple and what a Great impression this card will make!

Isn’t it so cool! I loved this template! It was so fun to make, and easy to. I came together super fast!

Give it a try! I would love to see some more of these fabulous card popping up in the GingerScraps gallery!

Come see us next Thursday for another “Let’s Get Crafty” session!

Scrap Happy!
