    How Many Times Can I Say

    Wednesday, May 7, 2008, 09:54 AM EST [Photography / Articles]

    So yesterday I feel like I made a PSA (public service announcement)!!  I had no idea how much everyone was going to like the stapling/cutting idea for rub-ons!  I have so much positive feedback that it makes me want to go look through my scrappy stuff and see what else I do that you might like.   :)

    So a couple quick things today.

    First - registration for the Grand Rapids, MI Great American Scrapbook Conventions opened yesterday (July 25-26).  I have a bunch of cl**** that I am teaching there so if you live nearby check it out 'cause I'd love to see you.

    Second - I have a new article up at takegreatpictures.com.

    Obviously, it is about the supporting photos that you want to take for your scrapbook pages.  You know - the ones you take to highlight the details of your main event.  These photos play an important roll on your pages but sometimes we don't give them the attention they deserves.

    As I was writing the article I felt like I kept saying "supporting" over and over.  There just wasn't another way to put it! 

    So I have a deal for you - go read it and then the first person to report back here how many times I used the word "supporting" will win a prize.  I have one mini kit left from the other day - the sample that I made up to show you - that I will send you.

    Go.  Read.  Report back here. :)

    (the tally includes the titles, the intro and article - really any time you see "supporting" on the page!)

    16 including title and photos.

    Looks like I missed it by 1 person. I counted 16 as well, although you also had the word "support" once in the title, but I guess we don't count that. Very cool article and photos.

    Hey Crystal

    I just went a read your article. The
    contest was already commented on but I just wanted to read it. I didn't even count the words, I just read.......very very good article. It's actually only been fairly recenty started paying attention and taking these types of photos.

    My friend went out Friday night with her adopted daughter to a China Celebration and they were all dressed up. She asked me to take pictures as her batteries were dead. She was wearing high heels and she NEVER wears hells so I got a photo of their shoes too.

    Great article and I just wanted to let you know.
