All of this and much more in our discussion.

Have a fun weekend!

P.S. Diana B was the random winner chosen from the comments on yesterday’s post.

Katie and I had a call yesterday and as we were discussing the post schedule, I told her that people might not see my upcoming Project Life post that I have been hinting about on The Digi Show (December 22nd) because they would be too busy “festivating”. We kinda liked that word and Katie’s daughter (who was sitting in on the call) liked it to. I decided it would be the perfect title for a Funtastic Friday.  We’ll see if it sticks!

There are two things that keep the daily in our digi around here: 1) The Digi Files contributors and 2) the exclusive collection contributors.

The FREE Digital Scrapbooking Manual is a resource filled with information we wished we would have known when we started digital scrapbooking. We asked digital scrapbookers and designers from around the community what they wished they would have known in the beginning and we share that information with you; expanding on it to save you from making the same mistakes we did. What would our team members do over? What do Ali Edwards, CD Muckosky, Peppermint Granberg (One Little Bird), Katrina Kennedy, Kayla Lamoreaux, Debbie Hodge, Krista Sahlin, Jenn Barrette, SuzyQScraps, (and more) wish they would have known in the beginning?  Come find out! The Digital Scrapbooking Manual is a free gift brought to you by The Daily Digi.
