If you ever feel unhappy with your Christmas-themed scrapbook pages, you might be making the common mistake many make when combining red and green. Today we released a Quick Tip for the Members that explains why those complimentary colors are not as easy to pair as you might think–and what you can do to make them truly complimentary–both to each other and to your photos.
If you don’t already have a Paperclipping Membership and would like to see all of the tutorials, click here to find out how you can. Right now Members get $10 off the newly released extended tutorial, The Holiday Altered Book.
MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY HANNUKAH!

If you like the flexible template from episode 73, you’ll love this one for your holiday layouts, which often require lots of photos.
When you’re done watching today’s episode, be sure to see what is in the new Holiday Altered Book Tutorial, if you haven’t already.
This tutorial is for members only.
Below is a view of the layout from today’s episode…
Kansas City Christmas
Journaling reads: This year we had the unusual opportunity to have all the grandkids together (although Chad & Ashley couldn’t make it out). Grandma & Grandpa tried so hard to get a photo with all the grandkids throughout the stay and this picture was another failed attempt–the Martineau twins didn’t make it outside. Christmas with the Buckland’s was so fun! We played at a gymnastics place, had lunch at a dinosaur restaurant with lightening storms and giant dino’s, and did some shopping. At home we were cozy in the beautiful Buckland home.
The following people won Lain Ehmann’s drawing from Paperclipping Live a few weeks ago. Some of you have not yet contacted me. If that’s you, please email me with your full name and address at noell@paperclipping.com. Congratulations!

Today’s tutorial is a simple (meaning, easy) project and it meets two different purposes. First, it’s a tag that identifies whose Christmas stocking is whose. Plus, it’s a miniature minibook for your child to enjoy his or her own past Christmas memories.
Watch the video for all of the details and a how-to demonstration.
This tutorial is formembers only.
Below you can see the fronts of the books on the stockings. The inside pages are in the video…
I hung these today while the kids were in school and had so much fun watching each of them look through their own book when they got home. It was especially delightful when Trinity squealed after seeing the first picture of herself with her new doll from a couple years ago.

I suppose there is a lot that we scrapbookers do that is worthy of some laughs. My friend, Lain Ehmann, gathered all of her laugh-at-yourself scrapbook-related moments and wrote them into a book called, Snippets. I had her on as a guest on Paperclipping Live tonight and she wants to give away two copies of her book, plus two copies of Simple Scrapbook’s latest special issue, Quick & Easy Photo Album Scrapbooking!
To qualify for Lain’s giveaway, head over to the Snippets Page to get a sampling of some of the stories in her book. Then come back here to this post and tell Lain which story you most identified with, or which one made you laugh the hardest. Lain will give a copy of Snippets or the special issue to four of you.
You have until Thursday night to leave a comment.
You can order Lain’s book at this link–just in time for Christmas. It’s such an affordable gift idea at only $9.99. Learn more about Lain and all the many ways to enjoy her on her website, GetScrapHappy.
