Hello all!

I have some fun news!  We have been featured on The Daily Digi site this month!  So I just wanted to welcome all of you (new and old friends) hopping over to check things out..  Feel free to look around and ask any questions, I hope you like what you see!  And W&W Fans that have not checked out The Daily Digi, I encourage you to do so, it is a GREAT new way to meet new-to-you designers and get some amazing products at an amazing price.

There is a 20% coupon available in the feature, so check it out, leave a comment if you’d like and enjoy!  Also, now that my summer schedule is underway, and I am sneaking in some more designing time, watch the shoppe for some new products soon, especially some more Life in a Box squares!

Hi everyone!  Gina here and I hope you have had a wonderful weekend so far!

How is everyone doing with their daily photos, 365 projects, weekly projects and other scrapping?  I am a little behind but hoping to catch up this week   Have you checked out the photo prompts here at W&W?  They are great if you are looking for some ideas for some photo subjects, and if you post your pics in the forum you can win some $$ in the shoppe!

Speaking of scrapping and catching up on your daily photos, I have a treat for you!  Do you love the ‘Life in a Box’ system but are short on time?  If so, you will love the Life in a Box Pages that are ALL DONE for you!  I have made pages for January in both 8.5×11 and 12×12 with Kraft paper and White paper backgrounds, and in both large and small photos.  Included in each set is a title page, dated pages for each week, and a misc photo page. Just add your photos, journal and you are done!

Keep reading at the end to learn about the W&W Incentive program too!

And here are some layout examples using the finished pages:

Hope you like them and hope they make life a whole lot easier for you!

I put them on sale for 30% off this week, and I wanted to offer a special coupon for another 20% off to anyone that has already bought any Life in a Box Template sets.  Just shoot me an email (via the contact form) and let me know you would like the additional coupon for the January pages!

Also, we will be doing the Incentive program again this year:  Scrap with any of the Life in a Box, Sweet & Simple Life, or Every{day} Life pages (or any other W&W products), post them in the W&W Gallery, and get an additional 20% off coupon (on top of the sale price) for the next month’s pages or any other W&W products. So scrap, post and save!  It is great with keeping you caught up with your pages

Ok, that is all from me for now, have a great week!  xo Gina

Good morning all, hope you are all having a great day so far.

Today I thought I would set a challenge that many of us find hard because we prefer to be behind the camera instead of in front of it. Can you guess what it is?

Yep, you’re right! Today’s challenge is to photograph yourself

You can set the timer function on your camera for this one or you could use a smart phone app such as Clap Camera (iphone) or Camera MX (Android).

Here is my photo for today

I have set up a thread HERE in the forum for you to post your photos, I can’t wait to see them.

And you may win some fun spending $$ at the same time as we will be choosing one photo a week to win a $5 coupon!

Hi Everyone!!!

I hope this finds everyone well…

I was so excited this week when I found the first crocus blooming in my yard…

a sure sign of spring I thought….I love when the flowers start popping up in the spring.

but from what my husband told me we are expecting a snow storm this week.

I guess we still have some winter before it is all over.

But in the bright side It is nearly time for the Maple Festival and I am really looking forward to some Maple Donuts.

Enough of my rambling…

I have lots of awesome goodies to show you this week!

I will start off with a new set of Simple Squares that Pat made for us – and please note that the Simple Squares are now also available in several sizes for versatility.  Gina has had many requests to make her Simple Squares available in additional sizes so she is going back and adding them to her previous Squares (more info on that soon!).  So, note that this kit of Pat’s has rounded square, square, 3×4 and 4×6 sizes:

And as promised here is the Desktop Calendar for the month.

Just click on the preview and it will take you to the Freebie section of the  shoppe where you can download it.

Here is mine with all the pictures in it:

I am loving having it on my desktop.

I have a new Random Word Challenge posted in the forum.  This is a new memory keeping project that I’m sharing with you.  I will present you with a one-word prompt, and you can scrapbook about a story in your life that relates to that word.

Our first word is ROCK.  Here is my story about the word ROCK.

Are you intrigued?  Head on over to the Challenge Forum for more details!

Good Morning everyone, I hope you are all having a great day.

My photo prompt for this week is FRAMED.

I have been playing about with my camera alot lately and one of the things I have been experimenting with is using something in the scene to frame the part you want to be the main focus. I have tried using gateways, arches, tree branches, doorways and windows along with many other things to create impromptu frames. I have also used an old picture frame which I removed the glass from and got my daughters to stand behind. This is a really fun way to ‘frame’ your subject. Unfortunately like many teens, my girls do not like their photos being seen LOL, so I am using one of my favourite shots from a while back instead as my photo prompt shot this week.

This shot was taken through a hole in a fence looking into a park. I love the way the round hole in the fence frames the view beyond.

Framed

I have created a thread in the forum for Photo Prompts and if you want to upload your photos there to share with everyone then go right ahead, sometimes it’s nice to see what others do with the same prompt.   And you may win some fun spending $$ at the same time as we will be choosing one photo a week to win a $5 coupon!
