Fabulous Friday - and winners!
Here in the South, Summer is in full swing! 95 degree + days...great weather for lots of outdoor activities! And you have to take lots of photos of the summer fun.
So, our question(s) this week:
Do you take your camera with you everywhere? What type of camera-DSLR or point-and-shoot? How many photos do you take a day? A week?
I'll be honest, I don't take as many photos as I should-or take my camera with me as much as I should. It's a DSLR and sometimes it just feels like too much to carry, even though I LOVE the quality of the photos!

This week we're giving away 2 prizes again...2 of these adorable All My Memories Vituri camera purses-1 black and 1 red. Great for carrying your camera on the go!
Just answer the questions above here on the blog and you'll be entered to win. Winners will be announced Sunday night, June 13.
Have a great weekend!

Mother's Day
Here's what Keller & I made for mom:


Friday, May 7, 2010
Last week's winner...and another Fabulous Friday Giveaway!
CONGRATULATIONS to Kathy Williams for being our winner last week! Kathy gets her entire order from last weekend for FREE!!!
But, it's Friday again. That means another Fabulous Friday Giveaway! And, this Friday leads into Mother's Day weekend. So, to be entered to win this week, leave us a comment here on the blog or email us --- tell us about your mom & your favorite memories of her...or tell us about your favorite part of being a mom. Good or bad, none of us would be here without our moms. And, good or bad, none of our kids would be here without us.
I'll start...
My mom is solely responsible for my drive & determination, my belief that I can do anything that I work hard enough for, and commitment to always try my best. If I had a dollar for every time my mom told me, "if something is worth doing, it's worth doing right" and "always give your best, nothing less", then I wouldn't need to work for a living!! She was so right. She believed in me. She encouraged me to do my best, to be the best. She was also self-employed for over 20 years...mainly so she could have a schedule to make all our school activities, basketball games (home AND away), church functions, and family dinner time each night. Thanks, Mom, for showing me the way to work and be a great mom, all at the same time.
As for my role as mother, I'm so proud to have Keller as my son. Almost from the very beginning, it's been just the two of us. We have shared life's struggles & joys together. We have laughed and cried together. We are still growing together. I am still amazed at how quickly all this is passing by. He should be a toddler, still throwing his arms wildly in the air when I enter the room. How is it that he is now 6 feet tall, all sweaty & stinky from football practice when I see him after school each day?! Oh, how the time flies by...
Ok, back to you...tell us your "mom" stories! If you do, your name will be entered to win our giveaway this week:
Fun Embellishment Assortment from Queen & Company!!
Just like the 'little things' that moms do to make life better for us, these 'little things' from Queen & Co will make your projects better. You'll get chipboard buttons, antique brads, felt flowers, & more!!
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!
Kim
P.S. Have you checked out our new site?!?! Remember you can save 40% today & Saturday on your entire order! (email us at kellerscreations@acidfree.com if you don't get our emails...we'll send you the coupon code)

More Ideas...


Buttercream Rings

"Friends" Ring Quotes
Add some buttons and ribbons.


6x6 Chipboard Baby book (These come with 14 pages-great for our ABC Tag or Strip Kits.)
We simply painted the book with acrylic paint and added ribbon and a QuicKutz splat.

Boy Wall Hanging:
Classic Cirle Chipboard Book
Large round Stackers in Burning Ember
cardstock Rings in Cool Cantaloupe
Scalloped Stackers-Circles & Vines collection by Paper Loft
4-in chipboard letters
Playtime Uppercase clear stamps
I painted the edges of the chipboard circles with brown acrylic paint. I then layered the Stacker pieces, letters, Rings, and photos. Stamp the title and layer with a cardstock Ring. Use a Ring as the guide to crop your photo.
Punch a second hole in each circle and tie together.
I hope these ideas inspire you! Happy National Scrapbook Day!
Tracy

Ready for more ideas?!
Here's an example of what I'm talking about. Versatility at its best.
I did a page with these pieces:
1 Connector liner
1 large Stacker circle cut in 1/2
ribbon
That's it. Easy enough, huh?
Oh, I did stamp on the corners of the page with our scroll stamps. I used the 'mirror image' scrolls from our Whimsical Scroll set...love how these stamps work together...put on one block and stamped all 4 corners of a plain white 12x12 piece of cardstock. Makes a huge difference.

Then, I started trying to decide which pictures I would use. I started with 2 vertical 4x6 photos, in black & white.

Then, I tried 1 vertical color 4x6.
I matted these photos, which is rare for me these days...but like it here.

More ideas....
Here are more ideas, to hopefully get your creative juices flowing:
6x6 Wedding Page Idea -
6x6 black cardstock
strips of pink cardstock...stamp word stamp as border on one, title stamp on other & tear edges
(word stamp from our Family & More Set, title stamp from XL Together & More set)
fun dotted ribbon
white bottle shaker & beads
Have you tried our shakers yet?? Easy...and shakers are 'flat' enough on page to NOT make your book all bulky. Be sure to use our Red Line Tape as adhesive to keep your beads, glitter, etc. inside the shaker.
Gotta lot of pictures needing to go on one layout? Accordion Tags are the answer!
This page -
12x12 cardstock...any light green or tan will do...even white will look good on this one
2 Accordion Tags (Evening Sun is color)
1 large Stacker circle cut in half
1 large Stacker circle
1 scalloped Stacker circle
snips of ribbon to tie tags together
*all Stacker pieces in this layout are from our Frog Prince (greens) Collection in Mix & Match section online.
Winter layout -
12x12 light blue cardstock (Waterfall used here)
2 large Stacker circles (Distressed Christmas Collection)
2 scalloped Stacker circles (same)
4 small Stacker circles (white)
ribbon
button
Gotta love quick & easy!
Another easy layout -
12x12 black cardstock (Midnight used here)
3 large Stacker circles
2 circles from 3" circle pack
1 flower
Rings
button
*all pieces shown here are Red & Black Playground Collection
Ok, getting the hang of how EASY things can be when you have fun print pieces in your hands, already cut & ready to go? And, they never look the same...move 'em around, pair them up differently, add some, take some away...so fun & cute to see all the ways to use pieces like our Stackers & Rings...and NO CIRCLE CUTTER NEEDED!

And the winner is....
Thank you, too, to the others of you who posted comments here or emailed us. But, somehow, I think there are more than a dozen people or so who don't know what to do with their negatives. We have all gone digital now...and our children will only see film in history books or museums...but just a few short years ago, we all used film. That led to negatives. I know I have boxes & boxes of them! And, each and every one is important to me. I want a simple solution to them. I think many of you feel the same way, too.
So, rest assured that Keller's Creations is on it. We are close to offering everyone an easy, affordable solution to your negatives....stay tuned!
And, check back later today, as we will be posting more projects for A Project a Day in May!

A Project a Day in May...more ideas:

Have you tried one of these yet?? Our new Classic Tag shape is simple....for a reason. I designed this die simply because of its size...it's PERFECT for 4x6 photos! Take a 4x6 vertical photo & adhere it to a page in our Classic Tag Chipboard Book. Trim top corners off. THAT'S IT. Who knew?!?

Here's another project...easy as can be PARTY BANNER:

We used:
Mini Connectors & Liners
Alphabet Letters from our Cardstock Creations
Stars from our Chipboard Embellishing Shape packs
3" white circles (also available in Cardstock Creations)
Ribbon
Any questions?? Remember, we have all these items precut for you. Or get the base pieces from us & utilize your stash for the rest...or somewhere in between. Just make something. It's worth every ounce of creative energy for the feeling of accomplishment...or if you're like me, the creative time itself is your reward. The finished product? Just icing on the cake.
And, another idea...once you're done with a banner like this for a specific event, why not add it to your layout for that event?? Double duty projects. Gotta love that.

Just think how cute these mini banners could be hanging on the door of your child's room with his/her name on it. Or for a special day for someone with 'CONGRATS' on it...or 'WE LOVE YOU'...or 'YOU CAN DO IT'...oh, here I go again. So many possibilities. Think of the smiles you'll receive from friends & family if you celebrate them & their lives with a little hand-made surprise like this.
Ready for more? Got school age kids??



Gratitude Journals
It's Friday...time for a giveaway!

Sharing here is our first choice, so we can all share in each other's ideas...but either way, please let us know what you think.

Negatives. That's what I'm struggling with. What to do with my negatives. Piles and piles....
So, here's what I want to know:
1. Do you have negatives you'd like to have a solution to? Say, a digital backup?
2. Are they all 35mm or do you have various sizes?
3. Do you have a local place that offers negative scanning?
4. Have you already found a solution? What did you do?
Ok, easy enough, right? Can't wait to see what you all have to say.
Remember, too, that by simply answering these 4 questions, you'll be entered into a drawing. For what? This week 1 lucky winner will receive a personalized coupon code to use throughout 2010 for FREE SHIPPING on anything & everything ordered from us this year!

A Project a Day in May??
With May 1st being National Scrapbook Day, we thought we need more than one day to celebrate the many things we love about our hobby...so why not a whole month?!
And, with the ease & adorability (is that a word?!) of our Keller's products, it should be more than possible to do a Project a Day in May, but easily achievable!!
Just check out these projects....as well as their rather short supply lists:

This puppy page is easy as can be:
Stonehenge cardstock Connector Liner - cut slightly off center, then stamped down one edge of each piece with Dog background stamp
Add ribbon to slots on one side of Connector pieces
Add 3" piece of cardstock on page
Add 1 Ring for emphasis on top photo
Add title or journaling...vellum sticker by Autumn Leaves used here
Easy. Done. Great Layout.

"Sweet!" might just be what you say when you finish creating a layout like this one...oh, so quick & cute!
1 mini Connector Liner with ribbon snips tied on each slot
Rings - 2 colors used
Chipboard letters for title - Lil Davis Designs used here
3 words stamped beside photo...all from our Word Stamp sets, of course

2 small Stacker circles
1 large Stacker circle
Rings for matting photos on circles
1/2 small Stacker circle - cut in half again to do 2 corners

1 Accordion Tag
1 set of Rings - use 1 each of all 3 patterns in pack in same size....adhere to top of photos to use & trim edges with scissors...no circle cutter necessary!
1 pack of Cardstock Letters - with 2 of each letter per pack, BOO can be done....these letters in Cardstock Creations on our site...in all 36 colors we offer!
Skeleton laser cut - on our site, too
snips of ribbon
Any questions?!?

Rings...what a simple addition to spruce up a page!

Good Friday...
Keller made this for me in preschool...and I still treasure it. It shows what today is all about. God's grace. Thru Lent and especially on Good Friday, we remember what God has given us.
And, we all know the miracle of Easter, and that is what we look forward to after Good Friday each year. Easter memories for me are of church...dying eggs....indulging in what we gave up during Lent (this year, it's chocolate for me and sugared-sodas for Keller)...family...trips to the beach...the beginning of Masters in Augusta....oh, so many different memories.
What is your favorite part of Easter? What do you have planned this year? That's what we want to know this week for our Fabulous Friday Giveaway. Leave a comment here or email us...that's all you have to do. Easy enough.
Oh, but what might you win?? We will draw 1 lucky winner to win one of our Jumbo 11" Egg Chipboard Books...shown here painted & decorated:

Cute, huh? But, it's Good Friday. So, we must do something more than usual, right? So, for everyone who reads our blog, you can get this book for FREE...you just have to order something online this weekend from Keller's online store. Every order this weekend that says "Easter Surprise" in the 'special instructions' section at checkout will get one of these 11" Egg books for free! (you'll have to decorate it yourself, though...k?)
Tell us your Easter memories and/or plans & you might win one. Order and we will give you one. Got it? (and don't forget our crazy sale ends tonight at midnight...so you might want to shop today...sale is found in Weekly Specials link in our online store...but our free book offer goes thru Sunday at midnight)
Happy Friday. Thank you, God, for Good Friday.
Happy Easter & Happy Spring to all our great customers!
