Celebrating Simon & Scrapbooking With Your Computer

I love it when you talk about Simon Ali. The way you describe him is so very much like Ella. It comforts me to know there other special kids out there just like her so in the future she will not feel alone. She'll be 8 in July and, as you know is also on the spectrum. Managed to finish the rest of your interview this morning. It is what it is. I say that ALL the time.

Oh you so captured the sweet innocence of a child in that photo of Simon making his wish! Great job! thanks for the fun computer scrapping week Ali! (happy birthday Simon!!)

First, I want to thank you for doing this series. I have learned so much already. Thank you for including tips for those of us who do not have Photoshop, and use Word.
I do have one question. Is there a way to overlay the stamp (Captuing phrase) over a photo in Word? I would LOVE to be able to do something like that. What about in another program like Picasa?
BTW Happy Birthday Simon!! = )

Thanks for this priceless post. :)

Happy Birthday Sweet Simon! Thanks Ali for all you do! Hugs from Conroe, TX!

Thank you for doing this series and the freebies. I love your layered templates and other goodies at Designer Digitals.
Thank you for sharing Simon's birthday. My son is also on the spectrum, 15 and just started high school. The years go by fast don't they? He brings a perspective to life that is so magical. It is a glorious part of who he is.
Happy Birthday Simon!

Happy Birthday Simon!
Love that photo, Ali. Totally priceless.

Thank you sooo much for all of your amazing tips and tricks. I have really enjoyed your last series and am getting excited to try out some hybrid scrapbooking!

Love the story of Simon. My 21 yr-old still is the most enthusiastic at christmas, having been a life-long believer in magic, and is still the most loving, thankful person...Simon won't lose it. :)

I, too, love your posts about your kids. I'm in a good place now with scrapbooking, and find myself longing for your family posts.

I love everything about this photo of Simon. From the look on his face, to the perfect lighting, to the composition as a whole. Absolutely gorgeous.

Happy Birthday to your wonderful son, Ali! Isn't it fun to celebrate them.
I was wondering if you could put a little section on the side of your blog, similar to the way you did with the December Daily. I really want to have the chance to go through this week's posts with time to pay attention to what I am reading and doing, and during the week, that just isn't possible.
Thanks for all you inspiration and sharing your life with us.

That is such a wonderful picture! Happy Birthday to Simon, and I too hope he keeps that wonder and belief in the magic of life!

Hi Debra - it's over on the side under "Projects" and listed as "Scrapbooking With Your Computer." Here's a direct link: /getting-started-with-digi.html

such a precious picture, and your post along with it brought tears to my eyes. I, too, hope that I can convince my kids to believe in Magic forever.

What a neat story about Chris taking Simon through the house to be surprised by his cake.
And Hooray! I am so excited for the next installments of Scrapbooking with your computer.

Happy Birthday Simon!
Anna is blessed to have a wonderful big brother like you!

Earlier this week you mentioned you were pondering about doing a 365 type project this year, what are you thoughts? I am looking into doing this, but just not quite sure about 365 and keeping up with it, the structure or organization I want to do with it and the overlap of 365 and december daily.

happy birthday Simon! big hugs from the Baer family in Germany! Iara and the kids Maisa, Theo and Anna Carolina :)

Hi! I am doing it and will be posting about it next week :).
