Oh I am sooooo in love with my new bloggy!!!! Becca did it for me and she totally outdid herself!! She used my favorite Creashen’s kit Anne (with an E). One of my fave kits of all time! I think I have used it 4 times or so which I don’t do very often so that’s crazy! To celebrate my new fancy blog I thought I would give away a little freebie. 
You can DL this template —>HERE<— or —>HERE<—.
I am also working on getting a newsletter up and going which you can subscribe to HERE. You might want to subscribe because eventually I will be giving out subscriber only discounts and freebies!
I think that’s it for now! I will be updating my regular blog sometime tonight with my latest piccies, so be on the lookout for that! Oh and the code GOp365 is still good for 20% off my P365 temps!

It’s that time of year! Time to start thinking about Project 365! For those of you that don’t know what it is, or want more info you can google it and will find a lot. The basic concept is to take a photo a day for one year. This will help document your everyday life as opposed to just taking snapshots of your cute kids. Sometimes kids aren’t quite as cute when they have gotten a marker and drawn all over their face or a sibling (totally happened here recently!), but that is something I bet you would love to laugh about in years to come! If you are going to be doing this project the best thing to do is to start a plan now. how are you going to document your photos? Are you going to scrap daily, weekly, monthly, etc??? I have been told that it is much less overwhelming to have a plan in advance!
I have some Project 365 Jumpers that could help you with your pages. These are mostly set up for weekly pages, but you can add photos, take away, etc. in order to suit your needs!!
I have a special coupon for those of you who read my blog..if there is anyone…lol! Use the code: GOp365 and get 20% off of this set of templates.
I have a special blog set up to dedicate to my P365. You can see it –>HERE<—. I plan on taking a laid back approach to my project. I will mostly be focusing on honing my photography skills and I will be scrapping as I feel like it. I might even go the route of a story board for each week. I just want to make sure I go into it with ZERO pressure or I will totally be setting myself up for failure!
And…I know you guys are all excited about the Book of Me! I have heard a lot of talk about it around town. 
I will tell you that if you stay tuned there might be something super special coming up to help you make your book come together much fast and easier than you thought! *wink wink* If I were you I would stay tuned to my store….just sayin!
Oh and one more thing! I don’t know if anyone does the One Little Word or not. You can read more about this idea –>HERE<– on Ali Edwards blog. I have not chosen my word as of yet, but I hope to soon. Let me know if you guys decide on one!!!

Hey Everyone!!! I am popping on real quick to let you know that I have a few new goodies in my shop!
First up is the weekly release of my December Moments Album. I know that not everyone can afford the full album at one time, so every week you will be able to snag a set! Here is week one:
My girls have been rockin the pages with the Dec. Album too! Check out my Creative Team gallery to see all their gorgeousness!! I would love to see your guys’ pages with any of my templates too!!! Never hesitate to shoot me an email at crystal@scrapbookgraphics.com! You can also post your pages in my product gallery and I browse through there often (I am terrible at leaving love lately, so email or PM is the best bet!)
Also out today is a set of Project 365 Jumpers. I had a request for these, so I hope they are ok!
These are also fabulous for your big events where you have too many photos to choose from and just really want them to shine! These are definitely photo focused templates!!
That’s all for now peeps! I have way too many photos and pages to post at the moment! I am off to nap!! I hope everyone is having a lovey holiday season!!

Lots of stuff going on around here lately..in the digiworld at least. Home has been pretty much the same. Everyone is healthy and happy which is all I can ask!!
I had a new template pack in the store last Thursday and I was pretty happy with this pack! A few of those pages had been among my favorites….which doesn’t always happen!
There will be another new pack this week, so keep your eye on MY STORE on Thursday! Thank you to everyone that has been super supportive of my little templates. It really is amazing and just means the world to me!! <3
Also After 5 is turning one this week!! They updated the site with a new look and with a new designer…possibly more coming??? I can’t tell! But you definitely want to hang out there to keep up on all the happenings! There will be fab challenges in the forum as well! Amy is having a CT call too! It’s a fab opportunity!
Just click the add for more details!!
I think that’s all for now! Though I owe you a few pages…so here you go!! Thanks for taking a peek!!

Hey everyone! I am a day late I know, but new at TDC yesterday I had one small package of 4 templates.
Image is linked. You have to see the pages that the TDC CT made for me and some of my girls made for me. They are sooo awesome!! It’s sooo fun to see how these are being used!
And also the new Artisan notebook is out. You can buy it a few places..but here’s the TDC link. My first page as a Color Cutie is in there and I got to pick this months colors. You girls that know me will not be surprised to know that I chose pink as the color to highlight this month. I will post my page tomorrow, but I was quite pleased with how it turned out which doesn’t happen often!!
That’s all for now though I think! I have to go grocery shopping…bleck! 
I will talk to you soon!!

Here I am! I do exist and I am actually blogging! YAY! not much going on around here..there’s a carnival in my backyard. For real. I will get pics tomorrow night for all to see! 
It is literally in my backyard so no sleep for kiddos until like Monday. YAY<—sarcasm there. The kids are super excited though so hopefully it will be fun! They have all kinds of food and rides and live music and stuff. Fun stuff! We all know what this means to a scrapbooking mom though right?! PICTURES! Woot! I actually paid money for THIS kit months ago just in preparation for the carnival that I knew was coming! Sadly though…you will not see my page until like November. So don’t hold your breathe waiting for it! lol!
And now…as to why you will not see that page until November…well, I am not a contributing artist person for the Digital Artisan Guild. For the November issue I have a page in mind just need the pictures so I am waiting until the carnival. I am super excited about this opportunity though because I have never been a big part of a magazine like that. I am part of the In Scrapping Color team where we focus on a color for each issue and then we teach you how to incorporate colors and convey feelings in your scrapping just by using certain colors and different accents. Should be fun and I had fun with the October color and my page! Which you will see before too long!
In home news we are all healthy around here! I want to thank everyone for their prayers for my sweet Gabey. He is all well and we haven’t had anymore troubles. All of his tests came back just fine too. We have started homeschooling and it definitely has it’s trying moments, but it’s going ok. I am hoping that as we go he will learn to pick up and retain more info, but at only 5 I am trying very hard to not be too hard on him. The other two little ones do….ok…while we are schooling. They have good moments and bad ones, lol! I just hope that they will at least become accustomed to the routine so that it won’t be a huge thing when they start doing school as well. Fun times ahead I am sure!!
Lastly…before I post some recent pages….I wanted to say that I have some super duper exciting news!!! However I cannot tell you yet! lol! Give it….mmm…maybe a week and then I will spill the beans!!!!

Hey everyone I decided today that I would try my hand at templates and make a few based off of my own pages. I thought I would share my first one with you guys! I hope you like it ok and if you download I would love if you would let me know what you think!
Here’s the template preview:
You can download the template HERE or you should be able to click on the preview it will take you to the DL page. My friend Leslie (1girl1boy) came up with the name of Jumpers because templates are a jumpstart for your page right?! She’s so clever isn’t she??! You can see the page that this was based off of HERE.
Anyways…thanks sooo much and I hope you like it! Please let me know if you have kind of issues!
