Everyday Storyteller - Blog Hop!


Hello everyone!  I'm a contributor to Everyday Storyteller, a wonderful new book being released 10pm CDT Friday! There are lots of fun giveaways to help celebrate the event:

First, there's a launch part at 8:30pm CDT on Friday, May 4.

Have you signed up as a VIP to the party?  There will be prizes ... more than $700 worth of prizes ... including one from my most favorite scrapbooking manufacturer, Jenni Bowlin Studio!  OK ... now I know you'll definitely sign up!  Click right here:


Next, I'm giving away a copy of the book  on my blog.  Just leave a comment below - and remember to leave your email address if your comment does not link to a blog where your email can be found. The giveaway closes at 11:59 CDT tonight.

While we're talking about a book on "practical ideas for scrapbooking", here's a practical idea:

Try changing the font size of some of your journaling sentences in a paragraph.  It's a great way to add interest and emotion to your journaling.

    Great tip! I also like to print out my journaling, with blank spots for special words. Then I fill them in with stickers or stamped letters. Gives the same kind of look, but is a little more work. Thanks for the chance to win!
