#22 Make a photo collage poster
I use snapfish.com to print off all my photos. Snapfish is full of gift ideas including collage posters. So this week, think of someone you'd like to capture (like baseball photos taken throughout season) or an event (like a birthday party) and turn 30 of your photos into a cool collage poster that can be hung on the bedroom wall. Your kid will feel extra special and it's a good way to display your photography skills. There are several sizes available and are a decent price.

#21 Block Letters

Maybe your name doesn't consist only of 3 letters but your initials do! Try using your initials or even just one simple letter, like in your last name. Have a daughter? She certainly would like to see her name hanging on her wall or on the shelf. Wouldn't it be great to be Mom of the Year for that kind of a gift? Again, a great idea for Mother's Day. Think outside the box. You can get the wooden block letters from your local craft store. Decoupage The paper on or paint the design on. The ideas are endless. Use your talent and the right side of your brain!
#20 Scrapbook Clipboards
#19 Top 50
Think of 50 of your favorite things...now list them. Top 50 things that make you smile. Top 50 things that you want to accomplish. Top 50 things...whatever it is, it's your top 50 so own it! List them in your own handwriting or 50 different fonts. Put a photo of yourself in the middle. A photo that captures the theme.
#18 Document your Month
Wouldn't it be fun to someday look back and see just how busy your life really was? As a working mother of 4 busy young children, there isn't one free day on my day planner most months. And as the school year winds down, it's getting worse! So try documenting all your activities for one month on a layout. Use a vertical timeline format to fit several of the photos taken during the month and the in-depth information in a small space.
#17 Decorate with Scrapbook pages!
I found 12x12 frames that your scrapbook pages will fit into perfectly! You can find them too at Hobby Lobby or even Michaels. They are usually used to frame your favorite old album covers and now, in this day and age of cd's and iphones, they are used for scrapbook pages!! Line your hallway with cute vacation or school layouts. Everytime you glance at them, it will bring you back to that moment and bring a smile on your face!
