2009 Calendar

Every year for the past lots of years (I'm not exactly sure how many), I've made a calendar for my mom. My methods have evolved as the first ones were traditional scrapbooking and then I made the move to digital. I've always printed my own pages on photo paper and then had them bound at a local copy center. This year I have my favorite result with the Heritage Maker calendar. I even used a pre-made template and just adjusted it a bit to my liking. So easy! Just drag and drop your images and change out any text.

2008 Christmas Cards--5x7 Invitation and folded versions

Since we had a tough year, I wasn't eager to complete my traditional family Christmas card/letter. However when I came across Gina Huff's Jolly Holidays kit, I had an idea pop in my head. You can view the results for yourself...

I was a bit slow getting my cards out this year partly because I wanted to receive one copy of the card first before I had them mass produced. I ended up making only one change because Ben didn't like the photo of him that I'd originally picked. Michela loved the fact that her's was a separate photo since she'd been away to college.
