Magic Feature: Import a Page Button

Have you ever seen a project in the Template Gallery that you really like but it’s not in the size—or even product—you wanted to choose? Say an 18 x 18 canvas you’d rather do in an 8 x 8 size? Or a 12 x 12 storybook you would rather have in 8 x 8 size?


Or what if you saw a canvas layout you wanted to use in a storybook? Or a page in a storybook you wanted to turn into a canvas? What about a greeting card that could become a page in a 7 x 5 storybook? 

All these can happen in an instant with the addition of an incredible new feature called the IMPORT PAGE button that works like magic! Known as “scrap-lifting” in the scrapbooking industry, emulating another design for your own use is a common way to expand your creativity.

Fun at the Digi Retreat

We had a great time at our recent Digi Retreat in Birch Run.  We had newbie and experienced participants who started and finished fun projects - everything from books and playing cards to cookbooks and thank you cards.  We gave away fun prizes, shared great meals and learned great tips and tricks for creating our projects.

There is no need to wait until our February retreat - you can start you projects today. Contact me to find out how easy it is to get started and stay tuned for more information on out next retreat.

Happy Storybooking - Patty

Playing Cards are a Hit!

I love my business - especially when I receive emails like this from a client.

"Patty, we had an absolutely wonderful time at our sisters' reunion this month in California.  You may remember that the theme was 'western' and I am sending you one of the pictures taken in our western garb.  We had so much fun having those pictures taken.

The other picture is of my three sisters when they opened the playing cards.  They were so surprised and really loved the deck (especially the jokers).  As the decks have been shown around they have made a real hit.  In fact, my niece is planning on making a deck for gifts for her sisters at their reunion for next year.  I told her to give you a call when ready.  I have given out your email to others as well.

I could not have been more pleased with my gifts, and once  again I thank you for your input.  Best wishes and I will see you at Mega Meet next year if you are there."

Thanks Carol! 

Start your deck of cards today!

Beautiful Fall Moments

It's fall - a time of beautiful color in my area.  Outside the leaves are just starting to turn colors and I want to stop time so I can enjoy the colorful beauty of nature before the long, white days of winter arrive. Just as the beautiful fall days help me with preparing for winter, it's those beautiful, touching and memorable moments in our lives that help us in challenging times. Just another reason I love to capture stories of my family. Our stories help us process what has happened in the past and help us navigate today and the future.  They help our children know that they are not alone - that we have had challenges and have overcome. Stories help us celebrate, heal and remember. What are the stories you need to preserve?  You know -those beautiful moments, those challenging times, those special people, those places you have traveled that have had an impact on you and your families life?  I challenge you to capture, preserve and share those glimpses of life.  The bright, the white, the dark and the colorful times.
