Welcome to day 2 of the SOC "Christmas in July" Blog Hop Today and Tomorrow, I'll be sharing pages from an ongoing project of creating a random Christmas pages; of which I will also put on DVD to give to my family as gifts.  After I began scrapbooking full time and started showing books and cards to my family members and friends; they all wanted their own books. I did that for a while, and then I started to get behind on projects for my clients and personal projects. CHRISTMAS DVD COVERS Purchase a package of sturdy DVD sleeves or you can spend a little more and purchase the plastic DVD jewel cases. I choose to use the paper sleeves.

I Inked the edges just to tone down the white sleeves so that it would blend with the black and and gold better. You ay be wondering what the "70" is all ab

    Mrs. Pink1 I recently goggled the meaning of the color pink because a cashier admired my pink billfold matched my pink cell phone case which also matched my pink painted toenails. He said "you look very pretty in pink; I bet it's your favorite color..." Pink is my power color. I had no idea what my favorite colors meant.       I must say the the below description and explanations of pink are very true of my personality; most of the time... PURPLE SIDE takes over!  Variations of the Color Pink Blush:  Similar to skin color, this very pale pink has sensual and sexual connotations. It is non-threatening but lacks passion and energy. Rose Pink:  This is the pink of universal love and unity. It is mature, feminine and intuitive. Salmon Pink:  There is a touch of orange in salmon pink.
