Happy Sunday!! It’s a very rainy and windy morning here in Florida - perfect for crafting
March 1st, 2009 at 8:02 am
I’m still intimidated with the whole digital scrapbook process. I’m chewing off little bits at a time. Technology isn’t the problem, just getting my brain around how to make it all work!
March 1st, 2009 at 8:04 am
Happy March and Happy National Crafting Month! I’m ecstatic. This event has been a wonderful learning experience thus far. I’ve been getting compliments on my blog couture and spreading the word on the House of 3. I can’t wait to see your new Design House Kits!
March 1st, 2009 at 8:11 am
Jennifer I get nervous about digital scrapping too but for me technology is definitely the problem haha! I do like the hybrid stuff though.
March 1st, 2009 at 8:12 am
Happy Sunday to you all!!!
…off to work…so sad…
March 1st, 2009 at 8:19 am
I agree with Jaime, I am so looking forward to the Design House Kits! I’m redoing my craft studio and I’ve been holding back on more wall decor till I see what you ladies have up your sleeves! I bought some of Rhonna’s signed prints but still need some HO3 stuff!
March 1st, 2009 at 8:23 am
I was really sad I couldn’t be a part of this yesterday (something about having busy kids) but I’m glad it’s still going on today. Among other things, I’ve decided that the evidence that there are people living and loving in my house is what makes it a home. I endeavor to keep it clean and organized, but it’s the little stacks of papers, the shoes and socks on the floor or little arrangements of action figures or cars that makes me very happy.

Happy Sunday!!! Have a great day and I am checking in later!
March 1st, 2009 at 8:24 am
don’t feel bad girls… i am still totally intimidated with the digi stuff… but little by little, i am learning and trying new things! there is just sooo much available.. sooo many possibities with the digital and hybrid concepts. and with the way that we create, we THRIVE on constant inspiration! it has to be EASY, and accessible!
don’t be afraid to TRY… don’t be UNWILLING to try! there is SO much satisfaction from trying something NEW and realizing that you CAN do it!
and you can SHARE IT! people LOVE to see… even non-scrapbookers… sharing is half the fun! blogs and facebook make it SO fun to share!
…there is so much NEW, so many possibilities… don’t be afraid to TRY!

I absolutely can’t wait until I can get all the items I purchased downloaded so I can start playing, printing, creating. One of the fabulous things about digital elements is that if doesn’t turn out the way you want it the first time you can just jump in and print it again
March 1st, 2009 at 8:46 am
G’mornin’ to you too! Comin’ at you from the very, very rainy North Carolina coast-we may even get a little snow:( Anyway, I am enjoying playing with the digi stuff I’ve downloaded-I agree with Danielle…if it doesn’t turn out like you thought the first time, you get as many do-overs as you want! Loving that!
Thanks for the great site!
March 1st, 2009 at 8:53 am
Loved seeing the videos, and all the 3 books. Good stuff!
March 1st, 2009 at 8:54 am

So I’ve downloaded the “freebies” and will play around with those. I have Adobe Photoshop on one computer and Adobe Elements on another - I’ll get the hang of this!

Happy Sunday…… March is blowing in like a lion here in Alabama, USA.
We have SNOW!!!!!!! Four inches of Snow!!! on my back deck. This is such a wonderful treat for us Alabamians, doesn’t happen by about oh..once every 3 or more years. We have taken some incredible photos today. I purchased the Valentine book and loved it. I’m still working on it., and OH MY, the new House-Home book, I simple love it. I take pride in making my house a HOME. This is a great way to record that part of our lives. You 3 Ladies give us such wonderful inspiration and ideas along with the tools to create them. I jump from one project into the next,building my collection of digi stuff and learning something new each project. Thanks a million for sharing with me. Elaine

what makes my house a home…my husband,kids and doggie. When they are not here it feels so empty and lonely. I love the constant noise, fun and laughter when we are all together.
March 1st, 2009 at 10:34 am
There’s so much good stuff here, I don’t know where to begin!!!
March 1st, 2009 at 10:35 am
So happy now got all of my purchased files to work and now I can start full blown creating!!!
March 1st, 2009 at 10:39 am
i soooo enjoy looking at all the goodness going on here…such GREAT inspiration to scrap on a rainy morning!!1
March 1st, 2009 at 10:43 am
Snowing in Mississippi on March 1! That was a sight to see early this morning. What makes our house a home is fresh flowers, candles, food,
Bibles, laughter and love. Being together would be the best thing that makes our house a home. Thanks for a wonderful weekend and sharing with us all the excitement about the House of 3.

Our definition of home has changed dramatically in the last few months. Due to “a pervasive and severe” mold problem, my family and I have moved in with my recently widowed mother-in-law. Making a home in her home for my 6 and 3 year olds, not to mention my husband and myself is proving quite a challenge. Over the next few months we are planning a huge addition and that will bring new challenges. With a little luck we’ll come through it with a new definition of “home” that has room for all of us.

It is a little cloudy and cool here in Eastern Washington, but I am forging ahead with my SPRING banner and listening to Mamma Mia! Thanks for the inspiration and ideas! Welcome Spring!
March 1st, 2009 at 11:23 am
Heidi, just want to say a special thanks from someone else who lives overseas and has limited access to scrapbooking supplies. To be able to download an entire project with background papers, is a real life saver. I remain astonished at the creativity of you three, and also at the way you are working together while being very far apart.
Congratulations!
Jennifer in Abu Dhabi, UAE (early spring but temps already hitting 35/100 degrees)

I found this site through http://scrapcrazydiva.blogspot.com/2009/02/house-of-3-house-warming-party-begins.html and have to say I am very intrigued by what you have to offer. I would love to try my hand at digital projects but am not sure where to start. I also love the name!

What makes my house a home are the people that dwell within its’ walls-my husband and my sweet little boy….and all the things that are cherished, like hand me down dresses and jewelery from mom, meaningful pictures that fill up an empty space. I love my home!
March 1st, 2009 at 11:48 am
What makes my house a home are the loved ones that dwell within its’ walls. Also, it’s the cherished hand-me-downs from mom and grandma, the dresses and the costume jewelery..the precious photos of family that always fill the empty spaces. These are what makes my house a home.

What makes a house into our home is being surrounded by handmade treasures from our children, parents and grandparents. It means so much to see things that showed their love for us especially after they have gone to be with the Lord. It is a great reminder of our heritage and fills our home with love. It also encourages me to show my love for others in such a meaningful way! I am going to make the housewarming book a snapshot of our home right now but also as a lesson to my girls that it doesn’t matter the size of your house but the love and people inside it - a good reminder these days. Thanks for your beautiful inspiring things that help us focus on what really is important!
March 1st, 2009 at 2:19 pm

Thanks for taking the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love learning more on this topic. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with extra information? It is extremely helpful for me.
