  I am offering a very special offer from now until the Eve of Halloween. For everyone who donates $15.00 or more to the Cards For Soldiers Donation at the top right hand column of this blog. I will send you, to the email provided by Paypal, a Lifetime CU4CU license for all of my CU items from now until I stop designing. And the first person to donate will get resell rights to select papers and designs. I will send you a resell kit to your email with a resell license. Everybody who donates $5.00 or more will receive a link back to your blog or store and a free paper pack! And finally, the one who donates the most will get all the above plus a special unreleased kit!! You get to get it atleast 3 weeks before it gets released giving you plenty of time to use it before anyone else gets to!! It comes with a matching free Quick Page too!! That means the one who donates the most will get two kits with resell rights!!! All donations for this promotion will go to making homemade cards to send to our troops and will also pay for some of the shipping to ship them.

I'm making this sacrifice because I really believe that our soldiers are worth the time I put into these cards.

Cards For Soldiers Donation

Card Making Supplies

  I got my first Card making supplies today from a generous lady who is local to me. She was so nice and I'm happy that I am able to get something to get me started. Her husband is also a Veteran. It was very touching to be able to do something with my life that has become so personal to somebody else and I hope that it touched her life. If anyone else has anything they think would be useful to make cards for our heroes that are fighting our wars  please feel free to email me. Those supplies will be used mainly for charity cards.
 Soldiers are worth it!!

More Helpful Scrapbooking Terms

Scrapper - Someone who engages in the hobby of scrapbooking.

Crop - The practice of trimming or cropping photos, either for decorative elements or to simply resize them.  The word "crop" is also used by some scrappers to refer to a scrapbook gathering, whether it's a convention, retreat, cruise, or even just a group of friends getting together at one's house to work on their scrapbooks as a group.

Embellishments - The decorative elements that really make a page come alive.  Embellishments include stickers, rub-ons, stamps, eyelets, brads, chipboard elements in various shapes, alphabet letters and ribbon. 

Journaling - Journaling refers to the writing or storytelling that's often involved in scrapbooks.

Eyelet - Eyelets are small metal circles through which the laces are threaded on a pair of shoes. They are used in a scrapbook context as decoration and as a means to "rivet" components onto a page - mainly card stock.

Nameplate - An embellishment that looks like its name implies - a round or rectangular plate with a person's name inside.

Punchies - The paper shape which results from using a paper punch tool - not the hole left by the punch. Punchies can be used on a scrapbook page for decorative effect, giving your page the look of confetti.

So learn these words and phrases and you'll better understand what's being said when you're actually working on a scrapbook.

Card Making For Our Heroes!!!!!

  I have always been interested in expanding to make cards, but now I have a real good reason to start, our heroes!! I'm not talking about the ones we read about in our comic books. Nope!! I'm talking about The Heroes that give up so much to go overseas to fight for our freedom! I just found out about a site through an email that I received that you can make homemade cards and send to a designated shipper and they ship them to our Heroes so they can send cards back home to their loved ones and friends. They don't have access to card shops where they are stationed so, they rely on us to make cards for them to send back home. I have been so inspired from this website that I have decided to start making cards for our troops!! This link will show you why!!

  If you want to join me in making cards for our troops you can find out more information here

  Or if you want to help me with supplies that I can use to make cards please send me an email with how you can help at cajunbeautysscraps@Yahoo.com .

   And as always you can help by going to the Operation Write Home website above and donate.
    I hope that I have inspired you today!!!!
