Scrapbook Your National Park, Forest, and Monument Trips!

We probably all have photos we've taken of trips to national parks, overnighters in national forests, or visits to see national monuments, right?

I've got a trio of kits (that all coordinate for even more versatility) you can use for making scrapbook pages from those photos!

First up, the National Park kit:

This HUGE kit has over 200 digital cards are perfect for documenting camping trips, vacations, road trips, or afternoon drives through our National Parks! They are perfect for digital scrapbooking in the Project Life app, or another digital program.

• 44 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) journaling and filler cards
• 18 - 4x4 sized (1200 x 1200 px) journaling and filler cards

• 17 - 4x6 sized (1200 x 1800 px) journaling and filler cards

• 63 - 4x6 sized (1200 x 1800 px) cards featuring National Park name and year established 

• 69 - 4x12 sized (1200 x 3600 px) title cards featuring National Park name, plus some blank and generic title cards you can customize

• 1 - 12x12 sized (3600 x 3600 px) National Park checklist that will work in any square pocket or can be used as a full 12 x 12 page

And don't be afraid to think outside the pocket size! The "wooden sign" style 3x4 cards will also work in square pockets! :)

Here's a couple of sample pages made using the kit:

-------------------------

Next up is the National Forest kit:

This is another HUGE kit with over 200 cards, perfect for documenting camping trips, vacations, road trips, or afternoon drives through our National Forests! All the cards in this kit are 3x4 size.

This kit includes the following digital card files:

• 172 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) HORIZONTAL filler cards featuring the name of each National Forest - filenames are alphabetical by state the forest is located in--forests that span multiple states are listed under each applicable state)

• 3 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) journal cards that can be used in either vertical or horizontal orientation
• 42 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) filler cards meant to look like wooden signs, with both wording and icon

-------------------------

And finally, the National Monument kit:

This is another HUGE kit with over 150 3x4 sized digital cards are perfect for documenting visits, vacations, road trips, or afternoon drives to view a National Monument! 

• 123 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) VERTICAL filler cards featuring the name of each National Monument - filenames are alphabetical by state the monument is located in)

• 3 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) journal cards that can be used in either vertical or horizontal orientation
• 40 - 3x4 sized (900 x 1200 px) filler cards meant to look like wooden signs, with both wording and icons

And since all three of these kits are coordinated, if you buy one, you'll get 10% off each of the other two kits!

Here's a shortcut to the shop for each kit:

• National Park (a best seller!)
• National Forest
• National Monument

Digital Card Kits for Cornhole and Pickleball

There's two new kits in my shop: Pickleball and Cornhole!

First up, the Pickleball kit:

The perfect kit for documenting pickleball teams or matches, action shots, tournaments, and more! Perfect for digital scrapbooking in the Project Life app, or another digital program. This kit has cards for individual players, as well as all-male, all-female, and co-ed teams pairs!

This kit includes the following digital card files:

But don't be afraid to think outside the pocket size with these cards! Some of the filler and journal cards will also work in smaller/larger pockets than they are specifically designed for! :)

The other kit is for all those cornhole players out there!.

Three New Kits in the Shop!

 It's been a whirlwind of a February already!

I've got three new card kits in my shop, that cover a wide range of random themes!

First up, I've got a kit I'm calling Signs of Aging. And yes, there's a not-so-veiled pun in there somewhere. :)

It's a kit that's meant to look like those little plastic letter message boards -and each of the cards has a message that's has to do with the awesomeness of getting older!  

This kit contains both black letters on white boards, and white letters on black boards. but then as a bonus, I've included some different color boards that are blank, and you can use your own digital skills to add your own messages if you want to!

Next up is my Snarky Hearts mini kit. Perfect for a not-so-lovey-dovey take on Valentine's Day.  

I patterned these cards after those little conversation heart candies, but with a bit of snark for the messages! 

All the heart design filler cards are 4x4 square, but should work in just about any pocket size (though they do get a little cut off on the edges if used in 4x6 vertical pockets--but not a lot!) Just letting you know!

And finally, I made a Female Gymnast kit to compliment the Male Gymnast kit I released a while back.

This kit has monotone filler and journal cards in all the popular sizes: 3x4, 4x4, and 4x6.

Hope these kits can be of use to you! And thanks for purchasing if you do! :)
