Paperclipping 117 – Ads and Tags for Your Layouts

New to Paperclipping? A few things you should know: This is a great place to learn all scrapbooking techniques (I've posted more than 100 video tutorials). Several are free downloads, and I consistently release new tutorials every month. Others are members-only, available when you become a member. Finally, I recommend you subscribe to my RSS feed, or the newsletter (the form is in the sidebar) to make sure you get new videos as they're released. Thanks for visiting!

This week’s episode is for the Paperclipping Members. As you’re sending your kids off to school, hold onto those new clothing tags and back-to-school shopping ads because today’s tutorial should give you some fun ideas of how to incorporate them as story-telling pieces onto your pages.

You can download the Quicktime version of the trailer here.

Below are the layouts I featured in this episode…

Journaling reads: I love that you attached this flower from my scrap supplies to your headband. You’re always so creative that way.

Journaling reads: Small from the beginning, we induced your birth 2 weeks early (the doctor wanted it to be 3 weeks) b/c you didn’t seem to be growing in my belly. We wondered if you’d get more nutrition outside of me instead of in. I guess you’re just a little guy regardless of where you are b/c you have continued to be the smallest of your peer groups (your friend, Zoe, is the only exception).

Being little has its benefits. At 6 years I can still hold you. And you love that. You may be a tiny little thing but what is not small about you is your personaltiy, your talents, your total charm. We had no idea when we named you Aiden how appropriate that name would be. Aiden means, “Little Fire,” and yeah…that is definitely YOU, my crazy sweet little guy. X-Small. Love you.

  • I always take a look to the tags :D
    A few weeks ago, I went shopping with my mom and my sister; my mom liked a shirt and she asked me "What do you think?" and I answered "It's cute. I'll keep the tag" It was awesome! but she didn't buy the shirt...

    I have a few cool ones that I hope I use soon :D

    THANKS

    BTW, I can't wait to see your LOs closer!!!!
