Make a Difference with Make-A-Wish
Simply Southern ScrapbookingJoin us in Huntsville, AL October 4-6 to indulge in a wonderful weekend of classes and crops. While you are there help make a difference in someone's life by donating pages for scrapbooks to give to the recipients of Make-A-Wish Foundation. Last year's community service project benefiting the Middle Tennessee Chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation collected over 5,000 thousand scrapbook pages with our winner of the grand prize, Hiddi Beard of College Grove, Tennessee, contributing over 900 pages! click here for more info
My Year of Wonder
My Year of Wonder “Year of Wonder” gives inspiration that will take your thoughts outside the box next time you see a basic plain scrapbook. Look what you can do with paper, ribbons, buttons, paint, tabs and a few fun embellishments? Scrapbook covers will never be the same when you start layering on the goodies to give a dramatic, rich presentation. Just add your favorite photo to give life and personality to your creation.

Windows Vista or Bust
screen shot of Vista OS
If you are like most PC users, you don't pay a lot of attention to your operating system. (As long as it does its job, there's no need to fuss with it.) Over the next few months, you're going to hear a lot about Microsoft Windows Vista, the new operating system designed to replace Windows XP (the operating system most likely installed on your computer). As with all major software releases, there will be a lot of pressure on computer users to upgrade. What exactly is Vista and should you get in line to upgrade?
