Dimensional stickers are a great way to add some texture and eye candy to your St. Patrick’s Day layouts. I found a some collections of dimensional stickers (and also non-dimensional) on Scrapbook.com that I thought you might like too.

Scrapbook.com has a free tool on their site that will help you choose your color coordination for different photos. Did I mention that THE TOOL IS FREE? Oh, yes, it seems that I have. Color coordination is as important for a scrapbook as it is for an outfit. You don’t want to be wearing colors that don’t compliment each other and you don’t want to be choosing a color scheme for a photo that just doesn’t work. If you have a scrapbook page that has always bothered you or never seemed to fit quite right, then you might want to take a look at this tool and re-evaluate the color scheme and how it compliments the photo.
Just look at this image I took from their site that clearly shows the benefit of a tool like this:
I found a great idea on Brooke’s blog: Grace and Light. So you’ve got all of these paper punchers and some of them just sit in the drawer, unused. Once you start punching a great piece of 12×12 you basically turn the paper into scrap to be either cut up or punched up totally. Brooke had a great idea to use the paper punchers on PAINT SAMPLES! Fabulous! The samples are free and come in every color imaginable, litterally. Also they provide a small colored piece of paper for you to punch out or chop up without going through a whole piece of 12×12. Check this out:
Thank You Stickers are great for you card making enthusiasts, and just a nice touch for a thank you note that you’re sending to someone that’s helped you out recently. I found multiple Thank You stickers on Scrapbook.com’s website:

And with glitter too, yay!
Any trip to Paris deserves a scrapbook, you’ll definitely want to preserve your memories of the event for a long time to come. I’ve found a lot of great paper and other accessories for scrapbooking your excursion to the City of Romance. And this stuff would look fabulous in any scrapbook anyway.

There’s a great new product out there by Cosmo Cricket called Glubers. Glubers are a pretty fancy way to make your own flowers and turn them into stickers. I’m sure there are other things you can think to use them for; they are basically large, circular, adhesive glue stickers. From the recent blog entry by Cosmo Cricket, it appears that this is quite a hot item, they are having trouble keeping them in stock and are taking measures to ensure that they don’t run out again soon.
So take a peek and maybe buy a few… everybody’s doing it…

I found this fabulous 1908 vintage graphic frame on Karen, the Graphic Fairy’s blog. I absolutely love the design.
I saw this “Journey Journal” for sale on Supermarkethq.com but thought it would be a great idea for journaling about a trip in a scrapbook. You could use your own map or run with this idea in a variety of ways:
Simple and tasteful.

O. M. G. I’m so excited for CHA 2011, it’s all that I can do to sit here and not ruin my pants. I’m having trouble sleeping at night. I lie awake at night and start thinking about how exciting it will be to see all the new stuff before it comes out and then I start realizing how crazy it is that I care so much about the crafting stuff and wouldn’t people just think I’m some sort of weirdo if they could see inside my head (but they would probably also be somewhat awed as well) and then I start giggling to myself and telling myself that I really need to just go to sleep but I can’t </runon>.
It.
Is…
TOMORROW!
Let’s get it on with the crafting!
