Family Rules– Done Digitally

I have been seeing a lot of versions of the “Family Rules” on Pinterest (not familiar with Pinterest? It’s a virtual set of corkboards – you can customize them anyway you like and add pictures/links.  Very handy for those of us that need to see things to remember them Winking smile Take a look at my boards.    I can send you an invite – quicker than signing up & waiting.)  Most of those I’ve seen are done by hand and although I love these I just know I’d spend way to much time on a similar project and before I knew it we’d be out of laundry and food.  I knew I could do it much quicker digitally!   I saw a 24 (4”x6”) opening frame at Kohl’s and picked it up for about $25. It’s perfect for this project!   I put together 24 “rules” for our family in Storybook Creator Plus – creating each one on a 4x6 page and then printed them out.  Here’s the final result:

I cut “Graham Family Rules” out of vinyl with my Cricut and am very happy with the results!  Here are a few close ups of the frame and rules.

Most of the rules were designed using the Cheerful Power Palette and Additions.  There are a few items from other digital kits, but it’s all Creative Memories.  I love that about the CM Power Palettes and Additions – they coordinate so well and I don’t have to stress about it.
Here are a few of the individual prints – much nicer in person!
