Hi! My name is Wendy Malichio. I live in the beautiful New England part of our country with my two children, Lacee and |
| Richard and my husband Tony. I started scrapbooking because every time I went through old photos with my mom we never knew the “who, what, where, when and why” of the photo. It was very frustrating! Trying to identify bald headed babies that resemble each other isn’t an easy task! Journaling, even if it’s just the facts, is very important! Read More ... |

Back To School Teacher's Gift Kit
This month's assignment was to do a back to school project. I really love school projects so I was happy to receive this. At first I went through my photos but they
|
| are all the same, kids with backpacks on, smiling for the camera, getting on the bus....you know, we all have them. Then I thought, how about a little gift to start the year off right. My son's new teacher just came off of her internship and this will be her very first year teaching, I know she is super excited (as are we) so I'm sure she'll welcome new desk goodies! I also made a hall pass clipboard as part of the gift set, next time you go into your child's classroom, check out the hall passes, chances are they are old and about to fall apart! One teacher was using her erasers because her hall pass was just so bad! Read More ... |

Hi, I’m Karen and I’m a part time bookkeeper and a full time mom. I live in central Louisiana with my wonderful husband, and two precious boys. |
| I started scrapbooking in 2001, when a friend introduced me to the hobby. My early pages were basically pictures cut into shapes, glued down on white paper, with tons of stickers thrown in for good measure. I like to look back on those old pages and see how my style has evolved over the years. Read More ... |

Creating Catchlights
This photo has been sent to me by Wendy Malichio with the question "How do I create PS catchlights?".
|
Well the answers is quite simple really. The dodge tool! The dodge tool can do great things, when used sparingly, to create natural looking highlights. As such it is perfect for creating catchlights in someones eyes.
This is a great photo and it should be quick and easy to create this illusion so lets get to it. Read More ... |

Design Team Challenge
Featured Project and Designer
Last week there was an error in the announcement of who we were featuring. I mixed some text from Jen Nichols with the text from Peggy Severins. So we are going to feature Peggy Severins again this week to give her the recognition that she deserves. Peggy is an amazing designer that has been on the team for a long while. She has a sweet disposition and that shows through in her design style. Check out her gallery and bio to see what I mean!

| children, a 7yo daughter, Kelsey and a 5yo son, Kylian. They are the reason why I started scrapbooking a little over 4 years ago. I started scrapping with darker colors but since I discovered KI Memories my albums got a whole lot more colorful. Read More ... |

Efteling (5 photos strip Challenge)
A layout showing some of the pictures of a day out at the Efteling, a very popular amusementparc here in the Netherlands. Each year we buy seasontickets and we go here often, it is always so much fun!
|
Journaling:
This year is the 7th year that we bought ourselves seasontickets to the Efteling. No matter how often we go there, fun is always guaranteed. I would say that on an average Summer we visit the parc approximately 10 times. We enjoy the moments we have together with the 4 of us, relaxing, simply having fun! Read More ... |
