Mom has Cancer, need help for Easter Present!?
My mom has just been diagnosed with cancer and she has cleaned out this bedroom in our house just for scrap booking. It’s something she loves to do so I was thinking I would order some nice scrap booking paper. I don’t want to get a scrap book for her because shes picky about that so I think paper would be easier to get. Anyways, here are some options.

Which one is your favorite?
Help is appreciated! 
I am so sorry to hear about your Mother and I will say a prayer for her. I kinda liked the third one but I searched for others and would you look at the site below before you make your decision. It gives you a great number of different ones and I guess the first ad is the one to catch my eye and to look at the rest. Show your Mom as much love as you can.

Please look at this site as there are about 100 different choices and you may wind up wanting your Mom to make her choice.
Digital Scrapbook HELP!!!?
ok i am making a digital scrapbook for my mom, and i thought it would be cute to spell our names out in wooden alphabet blocks on a few pages, well i have made it far enough to get it to look like a real alphabet block except for one small detail, the raised lines going horizontally across the front of the block, if you dont know what i am talking about look at this pic
http://rootinridgetoys.com/osc/images/AlphaBlox(Small).jpg
do you know how to create this effect? i have tried searching for it but i cant find it… maybe i am using the wrong search words i dont know but if anyone can help please let me know!
thanks in advanced
again looking for instructions or a tutorial
btw i am using Photoshop CS2 on windows
Put the words " Woodgrain Tuts for PhotoshopCS2" ," Layers Tuts for Photoshop CS2".
You really need to be able to master layers first, then after you have made your wood grain block, make a layer with the coloured alphabet. Then you have to be able to merge all layers.
I hope this helps.
PS: Be very careful of the link Aedan B gave, you end up on a casino ste if you try to get the free download………Naughty.
Can anyone recommend a good online store in Canada for scrapbookers?
Live in Saskatchewan and would like to find an online store to purchase from in Canada.
JoAnn’s sells online, but I don’t know if they ship from within Canada. EBay actually has a ton of scrapbooking stuff. You can refine your search to addresses within a certain radius, which would only show you Canadian sellers. It’s in the vertical box on the left-hand side of the screen, once you’ve gotten to a category of stuff.
If it were me, I’d use Google. Go to www.google.com and type "scrapbooking stores online Canada" in the search box that comes up. Hit Enter. If you get too many to deal with, refine your search and try again.
Best way to cut pictures for scrapbooking?
I have a bunch of pictures at the developer and I want to start scrapbooking. I need some advice on how to cut them to size for my pages. I was planning on using an exacto blade and a ruler. I don’t have much money left because I spent plenty on scrapbooking supplies. Would using an exacto blade or scissors be alright? I want to make sure the pictures are straight.
Also….
If you have any scrapbooking advice or links for beginners that would be greatly appreciated.
Hello – I explained this in your other question, cut the paper itself and put your picture behind the paper so you don’t have to cut your actual picture and it looks neater. Use an exacto knife to cut shapes out. It will be like matting for a picture frame
What makes your favorite scrapbook store appealing?
Why do you go to your favorite scrapbook store? Is it because they have the biggest paper collection? Or the more helpful, knowledgable employees?
What is it that you like best about your favorite scrapbook stores?
Thanks!
Well I would have to say that the best thing about my local scrapbook store is the wonderful, knowledgeable employees! They are so wonderful. If there is a new technique or product, they take the time to show me how to do it. If I have a page that is not quite working right, I can take it in and they make helpful suggestions. They have helped me with ideas for gift scrapbooks.
My local store also offers great classes using all the hottest items. The will also let customers book the "scrap room" for free in order to have little crop sessions with friends. That is always fun and give us a chance to spread out our work more than we could at home. This store has cards for frequent shoppers. One is, take ten classes, get one class free. Another is a 10% discount with an extra 5-10% off on select products each month.
Of course, product quality and selection is always a must. With out that, no one would purchase much. And a good clearance or sale section is a bonus (it’s my first stop every time I go into my local store)!
Hope that helps!

Boyfriend Christmas present?
Okay, I’ve got less than a week until Christmas and I need help. I need an awesome idea as to what to get my boyfriend. I’ve got a couple ideas in mind, but I need something else to finish it off, I think. I want it to be something useful (not like lists, letters, coupons– i do stuff like that randomly all the time, haha), and nothing involving pictures, because I gave him a really nice scrapbook for a different occasion. Yeah… help, please. He’s not the type to point anything out, ever, or drop hints, so… yep. Here I am, lol.
