About that T-Shirt Idea Link

I just posted a link to a t-shirt idea (here) that can be used for H'ween and/or Fall (just make 'em pumpkins instead of Jack-o-Lanterns). I posted it via CoverLeaf.com - which is a website I love!

I often find ideas in magazines and think "Oh, I want to save that to do with the kids." I ended up with a folder stuffed full of pages torn out of both Parents and Family Fun (but especially Family Fun - I love their ideas!!). In June 2008, subscribers of Family Fun and subscribers of Parents were given complementary access to digitial issues. Coverleaf.com allows me to DIGITALLY "tear pages" out of the magazines and save them to "my clippings." I can also share my clippings with people via the widget I used for my blog post, select social networking sites or email. I can also download a PDF of a magazine; though if I want to read the entire magazine offline, I have to use Google Gears. Honestly, I have a paper copy of the magazine so I'm not likely to want to read the magazine on my computer - not to mention I like having a paper copy of the magazine to thumb through...even if it is a year later. :)

I recommend checking CoverLeaf.com to see if any magazines you subscribe to use their service - and if so, get yourself an account and start digitally clipping!

Just to be clear: I'm not affiliated in any way with coverleaf.com, I've not been asked or paid in any way to write this blog post. :)
