I have no idea what happened! I set the blog up to post like I normally do for yesterday and today and now those posts seem to be gone! I’m so sorry everyone!! They were great posts too – the best I’ve ever written. Funny, intelligent, witty….ok, well maybe not. We can pretend they were right?

Sorry once again — silly computers…lol
It’s Friday!!! Wait, it is Friday right? Um…yup! My calendar says it is Friday. Phew! I was worried for a minute. What do you have planned this weekend? Me? Not a lot, doing a lot of prepping for Thanksgiving. Given the fact that we go to my mom’s house for Thanksgiving, and I’m not cooking, prepping will be real easy and fast. Black Friday on the other hand – well that needs prepping. I gotta make my list and check it twice. I’m not talking about my kids, but I’m talking about my shopping list!! I need to find the sales and not just any sale – but BIG Sales. How about you? Are you looking for big Black Friday sales? Well look no further!! We here at Ginger Scraps want to make your holidays start on the right foot! So, let’s start it with a 50% off sale!!
That sounds great right? Well what about your holiday cards? Calendars? Would you like to save money on them too? How does 10% sound? Would you like to save 10% off EVERYTHING at Persnickety Prints? Why do I keep asking silly questions? Sorry, I’ll stop…lol Now to save this 10% all you have to do is enter GingerScraps’ exclusive coupon code at Persnickety Prints. That’s it! No catch!
I do have some bad news though. Becky Young Designs is retiring. We are so sad to see her go, but thrilled to give you a big sale! You can get her store 60% off.

Second – Thanksgiving is next week here in the United States. What does that mean for you – besides lots of yummy leftovers? BLACK FRIDAY!
Last and certainly not least, and maybe the most important — the holidays are coming up and that means gifts.

We here at Ginger Scraps agree with that, but we would like to help you — you can receive too! So how about we give you 10% off your order at Persnickety Prints? The catch? There isn’t one.

Now let me tell you a bit about The Daily Digi goodies-
The Digi Game (A combo pack of The PlayBook AND The Digi Files)
Get Your Digi Game On!
So What is the PlayBook? (As answered by The Daily Digi Queen- Steph)
It doesn’t matter if you have been digital a long time or are brand new, there is always something for everyone in the Playbooks
Now.. wouldn’t you all like to get to know the Queen of The Daily Digi? I am happy to introduce to you- Steph~
I am Steph, (a.k.a islandmom, Fontologie, by Steph). I am first, (and most importantly) a mom to 3 kiddies and a wife to my wonderfully supportive husband. When I am not scrapbooking or working at TDD, I love to do anything that will create great memories for my kids, especially traveling, playing Rock Band, swimming, and going to movies.
I have been a scrapbooker literally, almost my whole life. I learned all about “archival” scrapbooking in 1994, but even then used a lot of computer clipart on my layouts. Little did I know then that I was a hybrid scrapper!
I started scrapbooking on my computer in full in 2003, but didn’t discover digital scrapbooking communities and all they have to offer until 2004, after reading a special issue of Memory Makers Magazine. I truly love this hobby and have found so much joy in preserving my family’s memories digitally. I have been honored to serve on creative teams for Michelle Coleman, Nancie Rowe Janitz, ScrapArtist, Hollie McCaig, Gina Cabrera of Digital Design Essentials, Dani Mogstad, Janet Phillips, and Shabby Princess. I have also had layouts and hybrid projects published by Simple Scrapbooks and Digital Scrapbooking Magazines. In 2007, I started my own font business called Fontologie (sold in the store here at TDD).
I joined Janet Phillips in late 2008 to launch THE DAILY DIGI on January 1, 2009 and purchased the site from her a year later. I am so excited to be moving forward with this site that Janet and I both put our hearts into for a whole year!
Ginger- Can you share with us two of your favorite Layouts?
Steph- Sure! This LO is still one of my faves 4 years later:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/47594618@N03/4409317163/ (Click Link for credit info)
And another:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/47594618@N03/4410087972/ (Click Link for credit info)
Ginger~ Wow wonderful Layouts Steph!! I LOVE the second one, it is always a challenge to fit many photos on one Layout, you did and Amazing job~ fitting so many photos on the LO yet still my eye is drawn to each and every photo!
One thing I love to do for The Dish, is get a favorite recipe from my guest. Can you share with us something that makes your taste buds do the happy dance??
Steph~ If you haven’t ever had Baked Potato Soup, you NEED to!! This is a recipe that EVERYONE eats!! I have made it for in-laws, cousins, friends, and usually take it into friends when they are sick or just had surgery. I always hear the same thing, “That soup really hit the spot! Can I get the recipe?” I took a big pot into a friend after she had surgery and she said it was the only thing she ate for 5 days straight (and still talks about it 10 years later) Here it is:
4 large potatoes, baked
After cooling, scoop out pulp
2/3 c. butter or margarine
2/3 c. flour
6 c. milk
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
4 green onions chopped
12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1-1/4 cup shredded cheese, divided
1 – 8 oz. carton sour cream
Melt butter, add flour to create a roux, add milk. Stir constantly until thickens. Add salt, pepper, half of the cheese, and the sour cream, stir until cheese and sour cream are melted and mixed in. Add potato pulp, cook until heated.
Serve with bacon, green onions, and remainder of cheese.
Ginger~ Oh my goodness!! That looks soooo yummy! So.. if I have surgery will you FedEx me some? LOL I guess I can forgo going under the knife and make it myself. It actually doesn’t sound too hard.
Now lets get on to some scrapping questions. What program do you use to scrap?
Steph~ Mostly PSCS3 (PhotoShop Creative Suite 3)
Ginger~ What inspires you to scrap? The Photos or The Products?
Steph~ I get inspired by both. Sometimes, I will see a product that I love and think of photos that will go with it. Sometimes I get lucky and have a great photo that I can’t wait to scrap. Even more though, I am inspired by the memories that I want to document whether it’s the photos or the products that help me tell my story, it’s all good!
Ginger~ I am totally the same way. Either, Or, I love it all! Share with us your favorite tip of trick in creating digi LO’s.
Steph~ Be authentic to yourself! Don’t spend a lot of time trying to imitate others if it doesn’t feel right or make you happy! No matter what your style is, you find fulfillment in it, stick with it!!
Ginger~ That is such good advice!! What is your Least favorite Digi job?
Steph~ If you listen to Paperclipping Digi Show, you KNOW it’s editing photos!! I would just rather spend that time scrapping!
Ginger~ I actually did know the answer to that one already 😉 as I am a PodCast Stalker! haha. What is one thing you Wish someone would invent or create?
Steph~ I wish someone would invent a way to use Photoshop in real life (recoloring, resizing, undo, the healing brush…it would be great!)
Ginger~ Ahhh the healing brush tool, such a wonderful little tool! What is the one thing that makes you happy despite any mood?
Steph~ My kids spontaneously telling me they love me.
Steph~ I have been very fortunate and traveled quite a bit through my life. My parents really believed in giving us experiences instead of things (and the fact that dad worked for a travel agency didn’t hurt either). This is something that my husband and I try to do in our family as well. It’s a great way to create long lasting memories as a family. When my sisters and I get together, we always talk about our memories from different trips. My little family also has many good memories from our vacations. Each is a favorite for different reasons, I really couldn’t pick just one!
Ginger~ Wow, how lucky! Your mom was a smart lady- (note to self…marry a travel agent!)
What is the best advice you have ever gotten- and who gave you this good advice?
Steph~ My husband always says, “No and not asking are the same thing.” Meaning, asking for something and being told no gets the same result as not even trying, so what are you out if you try?”
Ginger~ Very smart hubby!! Trying is the only way we will ever know. Steph, I would like to thank you for taking the time out of your busy life to come on over to GingerScraps and Dish with me!! I loved getting to know more about you, I can not wait to make that Baked Potato Soup! And I just KNOW my readers will LOVE exploring your site!! Much love and happy Scrapping 🙂

While we are talking about new ventures, please allow me to introduce the Editor of GingerScrapsStreet Magazine and a new GingerBread Lady, Dora Phillips.
Hi all! I am Dora Phillips and I am so excited to have the opportunity to put together an amazing digital and hybrid magazine here at GingerScraps. ScrapStreet.com Magazine begins our sixth year with the December issue. A walk back through old issues would showcase a long history with GingerScraps from her days as a designer with us. I have been amazed and inspired by Ginger’s talent and vision for years and am loving the chance to work with her full time.
I design under the name LemonLove Creations. I have long been a fan of the saying “turn lemons into lemonade” and believe that scrappbooking allows us all to do that. We can look at our darling daughter covered in our brand new super expensive lipstick, grab the camera, and giggle. Or we can dig deep into feelings we might otherwise leave hidden if we did not have an artistic way to express them. Scrapping gives me a way to look at the world through lemonade glasses. To see more of my life, come visit my blog anytime!
I am so excited to be joining the GingerScraps Family. You have all made me feel so welcome already and I am looking forward to a great future here!
How much is that doggie in the window? I could not help humming that old song while I was designing. We spent lots of time this spring looking at darling little pups before we found our darling dog Wolfie. For all of you out there loving your furbabies, this is the kit for you. $5.

So there you have it!! We hope you have a great weekend! Make sure you stop by the forums for a lot of laughs and fun activities!!
It’s time to get crafty! Who’s ready? OK…I’m not…hahaha. I haven’t had any time to craft in forever. But, I do have a really cute project to show you. It is my very favorite Christmas decoration. My daughter made this for me when she was about 11. She is 17 now. I pack it very carefully every year.
This is a project that you don’t really need any money for. When Kayla made this she just went searching around the yard at her Grandmas house. She found a few things in the craftroom and a little hot glue. She made this all on her own one afternoon. Came up with the idea in her own cute little brain. 🙂 I love it.
I know a lot of your kids would have fun making something like this. I know all my kids love Nature Crafts. You can find inspiration anywhere. Right in your own back yard!
Here is her “Acorn Nativity Scene”
And here are some close ups. Pretty darn cute isn’t it.
Now go out on a Nature Hike and make one for yourself!
