This week I'm really thrilled to tell you about a cool promotion from our friends at Flip Pal. The Flip Pal folks make the handy, portable scanner that's the size of a typical tablet and can go anywhere with you. It's able to scan all kinds of 3-D objects and has a great stitch function for scanning large items and then "stitching" them together into a seamless large image. It's a great little number to have if you want to start integrating more variety into your digital scrapbooking layouts and craft projects. Plus, it's unbelievably convenient!
Flip Pal is giving away one of their units (including a carrying case) to one of our lucky customers! From now until the end of October, we will be running a contest to help us pick a winner. Do you have a creative, practical, or interesting idea for a project that you would love to use a Flip Pal scanner for? Then go over to the Scrap Girls Blog and tell us about it! Leave us a comment describing your idea, and on October 31st, we will pick the best entry as the winner!
If you are chosen as our winner, we want to keep up with you and find out how you are using your Flip Pal. We will be featuring you in our Newsletter once a season over the next year. Get your creative juices flowing and let us know what you would do with a Flip Pal.
Here are some ideas I came up with to get you inspired:
Go on a "foodie" vacation and use it to scan the menus from all your favorite restaurants
Take it to the thrift store and scan some cool fabric patterns to use for printable crafts
Take it to the cemetery and scan your family's headstones
Additionally, to keep you inspired with your Flip Pal, we have designated our own April Martell to be our official Flip Pal Featurette. Many of you know April (April Showers) from our Forum Gallery where she shows off her wonderful heritage photos in stunning layouts. April will be doing occasional tutorials in our Newsletter showing how she uses her Flip Pal to create her layouts.
I hope you are as excited about Flip-Pal as I am! I can't wait to read all your great Flip Pal ideas on our blog this month.
