I was obsessed with The Babysitter's Club books when I was younger, so this made me happy.

Reese Witherspoon named her son Tennessee - here's a list of other place names.

CHEAP VINTAGE CAMERA ART

I have to share this free download that I came across on The Design Editor blog. The blog writer, Catherine, enlarged photos of her vintage cameras at Staples for around 3 bucks and you can download her photos for free and do the same! Really cool art for cheap = awesome.

DIY SCRATCH OFF COUPON

I was recently asked to contribute a grab bag item to a local bridal show and I found this tutorial for creating scratch off cards that I used as inspiration. I decided to make my own but with a few changes. 

First I printed and cut several cards with a design that included a 1" circle with 1 of 3 different discounts on it. My one piece of advice for this project: make sure the word or picture that is underneath the scratch off sticker is in a dark color. At first, I printed blue circles with white words and it was not very visible beneath the scratch off sticker.

Then I placed these 1" scratch off circle stickers over the circle in the design that included the discount and code.

 It's as easy as that! The scratch off stickers are not very expensive, and this project is so simple but unique. They would be great for the holidays or for a creative gift project.
