sharing the love

I have the privilege of being a member of several Design Teams {write.click.scrapbook., Ella Publishing, and The Twinery}, each loaded with incredibly talented and crafty ladies. As I was planning out my blog post calendar, I came upon the idea that I needed to share their many talents with you. These ladies are crafting divas...making, producing and designing items that are delightfully unique.

I have been offering this special, which doesn't expire until 12.31.2010, to my Etsy customers and I'm pleased to offer it to my blog readers as well!

As you plan your gift-giving lists, I'd like to present a few places for you to browse.

And ooh and aah.

And add items to your cart to purchase.

Francine Clouden, another write.click.scrapbook. and Ella Publishing Design Team member, has an Etsy shop called Callaloo Soup Designs that I just might have ordered some super cool adhesive chalkboard die cut labels from for myself. She even prepared some chalkboard vinyl in a custom size that I requested. Be watching out soon for what I create with those lovely items.

If you're looking for some shabby chic/vintage cool gift wrapping ideas like the ones pictured above, check out these blog posts from Francine here:

Melissa Kaiserman has just opened her shop, a time for everything, and you won't be disappointed in the craftsmanship or the cuteness factor! She just finished hosting over at write.click.scrapbook. this week, sharing awesome downloads for holiday organization, Christmas card templates, gift tags and more. Go check it out here.

Amy Sorensen, writer-extraordinaire and write.click.scrapbook. Design Team member, is also a Big Picture Classes instructor. Her newest class, The Gift of Words, is a two-week course and registration is open only until December 1, 2010.

The Gift of Words

If you want to make connections with the important people in your life this holiday season, this class is for you. If you want to spend less money on gifts this year, this class is for you. If you're tired of giving gifts just for the sake of giving — a button-down shirt your brother-in-law might not even like, another knick-knack for your mother's curio cabinet, some fruity lotion your best friend will exchange three days after Christmas because she really likes the vanilla scents better — this class is for you. Give a gift this year that truly tells the recipient "our relationship matters to me."

Rebecca Cooper, also a write.click.scrapbook. Design Team member, also happens to be an Ella Publishing e-Book author. She's also authored the book, Real. Life. Scrapbooking.

No time to go page-by-page through your camera’s manual? Never fear! Professional photographer and scrapbooker Rebecca Cooper will show you how to take better everyday pictures in a flash (no pun intended!). With easy-to-follow instructions and tons of images to guide you, you’ll increase your photographic know-how and improve your photography in an afternoon. Composition and lighting tips suitable for photographers of all levels. Technical tips aimed for beginning DSLR or point-and-shoot camera owners.

I know, I know, pretty cool, huh! This e-Book is also part of the Photo Bundle offered by Ella Publishing this weekend only. I already own this book, and here's the link to purchase your own copy:

40 Tips for Better Photography

There are so many delightful items out there to capture your attention, but I hope that you will consider some of the items I've presented to you today. By doing so, you are supporting Moms all across the world...Francine lives in France and Rebecca is currently  living in the Carribean!

I hope to be updating this great roundup with more gift ideas throughout this holiday season.
