Alrighty, BIA fans, here is the first giveaway for December! What do you need to do? Easy--just leave a comment on this post about what you love to scrap or papercraft during the Winter months. I'll pick one winner at random and announce in my next post on December 13. You will get a set of two Coveralls in different styles and sizes. Good luck to all!
All that giveaway business aside, here is my very first Coveralls project. I have to say that it really added another dimension to my minibook, a more finished look. The Coverall really withstood a lot of handling, inking and embellishing. Give it a try if you haven't already!
Thanks,
Lea

This will be cheesy but I love scrapping my cards! I look forward to it all year! But I also find myself scrapping and altering items to give away, like mirrors and memory boxes. I love Christmas
I love papercrafting in the winter especially - it helps me to get caught up on my photos
i love to catch up on all the projects that i have neglected over the summer months and also my kids sports photos
What a better thing to do when it is cold out....papercraft! A nice cup of cocoa, fuzzy slippers and warm pajamas are the perfect setting to be creative!
Thanks and I love your coverall!
*gina*
My Daily December mini album! I used my trusty bind it all this year!
I like to scrap everything but especially vacation or more summery bright themed layouts, to counteract the cold depressing weather!
Ooooh pick me! LOL Well, the book came out great!
What do I like to scrap or papercraft in the winter? I love to scrap Christmas photos and to make Christmas gifts for my family!
I like to craft lots of things all through the year, but probably more home decor types of things. Altered items or little sewing projects and my all time favorite of cards! Anything paper!
I like to spend a day making a variety of cards, to stash away to be available whenever I need one

I like to scrap my Christmas pictures, and if it's an especially cold day outside and I'm longing for warmer weather, I will scrap my beach vacation then. Nothing like the visions of hot sand and waves to warm the soul.
I scrap it all, ALL the time! But during the fall/winter months I find myself constantly going back to the deep jewel tones of the season and losing myself in the fall and Christmas colors *SIGH* Sappy crap over, I'm just lucky to get ANY paper crafting done with these crazy littles running around searching for Santa!!!
Very cool! Thanks! I love your design!

I love to work on minis from our fall cabin trips.
I love to get my scrapbook caught up, or at least attempt to. Now that I have the Bind it all, I am torn between making projects with that and my other scrapbooks!! I LOVE it and the Dreamcuts.
I love doing the summer vacation photos. The photos bring back all the memories of our vacation and fun events!

I usually go through the calendar & get my birthday cards made for the year during thr winter months. I've also signed up for a few ATC swaps so I'll also be working on those.
I love to scrap summer photos in the winter time...helps to keep me warm! :)
I love to do 'gift' projects... this also helps with saving money during this time of the year. Especially since I have to ship most of the gifts since our families don't live close. And I can make the items fit the boxes instead of the other way around.
I do like to do Holiday gift scrapping...I will always be behind on life.....but at least it keeps me happy.
The book is beautiful.
I find that I do lots more papercrafts during the winter months. I tend to make LOTS of photo albums and journals for my Christmas and holiday gifts. I started this 2 years ago and now every one hopes they get one each year!
thanks BIA for making my gift giving easy!
I am crafting ornaments for an exchange!
Wow! That is awesome! I love making holiday cards and books for gifts!
During the winter there are alot of snowed-in days...That is the best time to scrap...grab a hot chocolate and bring out the pp's!!!! I have found myself busy the past winter and this winter coming for I do an annual scrapbook for my Husband's ATV Club. Once a month we hold events, some are to raise money and membership, but most of our events are to raise monies for local charities or benefit rides in other communities. I'm the designated photographer of the club and have turned these photos into wonderful keepsakes of what our club stands for and what we have accomplished!!!
Can't find these wonderful products locally and I'm dying to get my hands on them....especially after seeing stunning completed projects such as this! Thanks for the inspiration!

I like to scrap Last years Christmas pictures while in the Christmas spirit.
Oooooo.......these look fun...I would love to give them a try!! I enjoy doing mini's and these would be great to use!!
I love making homemade cards and mini albums as gifts. It really puts me in the holiday spirit. My friends and family really look forward to it.
~PattiHutch
I'm hoping to take some mini-book classes.
I love to make cards, cute decorations and gift containers especially for the holidays. Also, love to make mini scrapbooks and really love my Bind-It-All!
TFS.......Lynn
I love to scrap the photos of fresh snow and ice and any other weather that we get. Its a fun time to scrap and look back at the year.
Thank you
Blessings

I like to scrap in the winter as it gives me a great excuse NOT to be the one outside shoveling all the snow!
I like to scrap in the winter is because for some reason, it seems like we have less to do. Its too cold to be out gardening or playing, so we all huddle up in the basement, me in my scrap area, the kids playing and DH in his office, all in a big open space, doign what we love, and still being together!
I just finished my first BIA project and while i still have some learning to do as far as the punching goes, its so fun and my project is great. Love it!
Winter seems to be the time that I scrap the most. In the fall, I get back into having crops here at my home with a group of friends from church. We take the summer off, so it is nice to get back into the groove of things once summer is over with. By the time winter comes, we are scrapping at least monthly together & then I try to get more done here at home between crops.
I love listening to holiday music while creating something crafty to gift to my family and friends!
i love to scrap all of the summer stuff! and always my son.
During the winter months its cold outside here, so it is a great time to do baking and try lots of different crafts for gifts.
i'm enjoying making christmas cards and gift card holders right now.i do have to throw in a layout or two every now and then. thanks, cheryl
So...I have these calendars that I always want to make before x-mas, but never finish...so that's usually my project. I love making cards too!!
Wow...love these coveralls. Thanks for an opportunity to win. I love to make books, ornaments, presents, decorations and gifts prior to Christmas and then scrap all those wonderful photos afterwards.
This is just so inspiring! Love the rich colours too! Just gorgeous!
I love altering projects in the winter. I make as many gifts as I can crank out from October through December. I alter everything from picture frames to books to boxes/containers.... you don't want to stand in one place for too long at my house during the holidays or you might get altered! LOL! : D
That's SO cool! I love making little books with my BIA, last year I had my mom write out all her favorite recipes, made copies of them and made them into cookbooks for all her grandkids. They thought it was the coolest gift ever! Everybody thought she had them "sent out" to be done because they looked so professonal done with my trusty BIA! I also do regular scrapbooks and all my Christmas cards. Please pick me!
I've been making little calenders that are 4x4 size and then binding them with my BIA. I also used the RIA on the corners. After Christmas I hope to be doing some layouts with snow pictures.
In the winter I scrap all my summer activities!! ;) What do I do in the summer? Scrap my winter activities! ;))
I love making little albums in the winter and for Christmas presents.
My Bind It All does a great job, even with Club Scrap Paper which is quality card stock.
Marlou
i don't scrap all that often, but i am really enjoying making my christmas cards this cold december day. and i finished a journal (made with the bind-it-all) for my friend's bday coming up and i am totally excited to see if she likes it!
I love to scrap around the holidays because there are more family members to scrap with. I am hoping to just get pictures into the books I have already started.
My sisters birthday is in January, so I make her an album from our vacation together.
I Love using my new Bind-it-all this winter, to make little scrapbooks and notebooks to give away. I haven't had a chance to use the new cover-alls It sure would be fun to try them. I really like my machine and all the different things I can do. Thanks for all the Great products that you make. Thanks, Jayne
I love scrapbooking pictures of my ornaments and decorations.
I love to do mini books for fellow family member. so hope to try out the new coveralls if I win ???
thanks
lana
In Aus our winter is in the middle of the year and we always take a road trip with our DDs for a few weeks so I leave creating an album of our trip :)
I make my Christmas cards and I scrap my Christmas photos of all the friends and family that we share the holidays with.
I like to do layouts about our trips to warm weather places. Keeps me feeling warm while in the tundra of Minnesota.
I enjoy creating and making Christmas cards each year for family and friends. It's a little piece of me that I send to all with love.
i like to make christmas cards and, of course, a santa layout. :)
thanks for the RAK opp! :)

The book looks awesome!
I am sooo far behind in my scrapping that I scrap anything I can in the winter! :) I do like to make Christmassy things, but usually I run out of time LOL
I just love to scrap.
The book is amazing
I love to do gift boxes and also journal books to give to my friends. Also to do extra cards to send out for birthdays.
Wouah !! a great and good idea !!
I love scrap Christmas photos ( my family, christmas decorations and landscapes in snow !!!
Winter is a great time to get caught up on all the summer photos I take!
Your project looks fab. I live to take stock of all that I have done in the year and finish of my unfinished work !!! Mainly scrap pages but some cards as well. And clean the craft room.
Oh Lea I'm such an admirier of your work I would be in Heavon to win something you had made!!
In Winter I scrap everything I didn't have time to do while I was busy outside in the summer!!
I love altering mini chipboard books.
I have no preference during the winter. I just love to play with paper so I do whatever I want to do, just roll with the flow :)
Beautiful project! I guess I just do what I get inspired to do for the moment.
Beautiful! I tend to do more papercrafting in the winter months as everything seems to move at a slower pace. I love to do mini books, scrap pages and of course cards & 3D items. I tend to do whatever catches my eye.
I love to make presents for people. I have done a lot of crafting over the years and rarely keep anything for myself. It warms my heart when someone opens my gift and you can tell they know it came from the heart.
This winter, my husband is deployed overseas, so I'm enjoying ANYTHING that I can scrapbook! Just getting a few minutes for myself here and there has been wonderful! The projects I've accomplished in that time are frosting on the cake! Thanks for the contest!
I love to make mini photo books for the holidays. I use digiscrap quick pages, add my own photos and journaling and print them out at 4x4. Then I mount the pages on square coasters and bind them with my BIA. The grandparents love them!
That is just beautiful. I love my zutter and make most of my albums now. I have not tried the cover alls. I am looking forward to finishing my halloween book and starting on Christmas.
I love to make tags for all my gifts. I also make an album for my 2 kids with pictures throughout the year and give this to them as a gift. They love this...and look forward to it each year. Would look cute this year in some coveralls.
~:~carol~:~
I am frantically scrapping mini books for gifts! but I love to scrap my birthday which is in 3 days!! pick me!!pick me! :)
Please pick me... I'd be so super excited! I love scrapping about my boys... all year round :)
I adore my BIA and will start in January making the first pages of 2009 photo album/scrap book.
I get to stamp and paste and paint and emboss and try out all medias.
It is brilliant to have a machine what you can create so much with - and even better now that I have all the BIA Zutter Zisters blogs to visit for inspiration. It has made a huge difference to me - as I bought my BIA and Dreamcuts this year - and it sat in its box for ages. After the Zutter Zisters 'arrived' it never stays still long enough to gather dust - and never goes into its box!

I love to make mini ablums! I sell them at local craft show. I love my BIA and have come up with some really fun things to do with it.
During the winter months, I work on different papercrafting projects. I craft a calendar/planner for the year, gifts for friends and family and cards.
I love scrapping other people...creating albums and pages to give away since I have a select group of friends who are not scrappy, or crafty at all..my 2 best girlfriends, so I love being able to give them handmade memories! :)
Minibooks her........I love'em!!! But this year I have a little grandson so he is what I'm going to be scrapping this winter!!!
I love the finished look of the Coveralls. Wowza!
My favorite thing to scrap (and not just in winter, but year-round) are mini albums. LOVE them!!! I have a pile of photos just waiting to be added to albums. (and more albums) That is right after I get all the mini-albums done that I am giving as Christmas gifts!
During the winter time I love to Make cards for Christmas and work on my Scrapbooking. I would really love to win the Coverall Sampler, it will give me a reason to learn how to do more things with my Bind It All.
Thank you, And
MERRY CHRISTMAS
i love to work on the bigger and more detailed projects in the winter, i can stay in and watch the snow fall while my projects dry. warmer days always call me to come outside. i love using the bind-it-all over rings on all my projects.

I would love to get on of these fun little covers...
I like to scrap the holidays. I just purchased a Bind It All and stopped by here looking for ideas. Thanks for sharing!
Winter is time to catch up on all half-finished projects started through out the year -with the weather starting to cool a bit, I grab a nice big cup of hot tea and start the scrapping!!!
i just LUV snowmen and snowflakes...they give me a warm feeling
I scrap our winter days out and of course CHRISTMAS!!!! Luv it! My xmas boxes filled with homemade shortbread always go down a treat with neightbours!
Winter is the perfect time to scrap and paper craft everything! Cold and yucky inside, might as well be in making scrappy pages, cards, altering stuff...whatever I can get my hands on, LOL!

I scrap everything in the winter. that's my down time!
In winter I like to sort out photos I didn't scrap in the year.
I like to make mini books to include these photos.
Love making Christmas presents.
Really like the new Coveralls.
i love to scrap my december daily album!!!

Joan
usually in the winter months i am finishing my months in review album thati am behind on- it is a 2 pag spead about what we did for each month- keeps me feeling somewhat caught up
I'll be working on the 35 years of photos I have in boxes....
I Love making cards and Projects for gifts.. I just got me a whole bunch of Teresa Collins Designs to make some mini recipie books with the BIA and the DKS' for my sisters of my Moms personel Recipies.
I love to play with scraps and all sorts of bits and pieces to see what I can come up with for Mum's Christmas fayre.
Toni :o)
I like making christmas cards... :)
Scrapbook pages, cards and all sorts of little things that I have more time to do now.
I love to scrap the time w/ my family. No one else in my family whips out the camera, so I have become the resident photographer... & I am HAPPY to accept that title!
~Cori S
What I like about the winter months is that I can scrap whatever I want...because I have more time to scrap! A lot less sports for the boys, Christmas break for us all from school, and weather that keeps us from running around...guess I need to scrap a page about those favorites too! :)
Rhonda
I love to scrap any pics that inspire me during the winter season. :) I always have to make sure that my other projects, such as gifts and what not are done first! :)Thanks-Kathy
I love making cards in winter...
I love to do so many things yet have so little time.
love the book, I love to scrap every and anything at anytime.
Love the covers will be a change from all th ribbons I use,
I love to scrap bonding moments with DH and kids.. its not everyday they get to snuggle up because it doesnt really get that cold here in the Philippines except on the holidays.. :)
I'm usually catching up on the holiday pictures or if by chance we get a snow day - then that's what I'll work on. Love the new covers
Shout out to Nan for providing this link. What valuable information. During winter months, Ilove to scrap vacations to take away the winter blues. We just returned from vacation yesterday and am looking forward to putting together a 1,2,3,4,5 day vacation mixed album. I will definetly bound it with my bind-it-all system. Love the machine!!
That is one beautiful coverall! In the winter I like to expand beyond making cards; try some new paper projects. I plan this winter to make a book of tag art that I have started to work on.
I love to make cards year round. I'm trying to work up my courage to make some scrap books. That's where my BIA comes in because little books seem less intimidating. These Cover-Alls are on my want list!
Mini albums are my favourite thing of all - gifts for friends and family as well as little albums to have around the house - albums of the children, of our animals and of our home - and I especially love the mini albums I make of our garden from the Summer months and of the hummingbirds that visit in the Summer. Winters here are so long that I love to sit and remind myself of the warmer months by flicking through my mini's!!!
I'm usually making scrapbook gifts for family...Thank goodness I'm finished in time!
I always seem to be so far behind, that I love to scrap my Christmas photos from the year before...
I love to scrap mini albums for gifts and do a lot of crafting...Creating gift boxes, bags, candles, decor, etc.
I love make crafts, right now working on Christmas ornaments, and little gifts for the ladies at my husband's workplace. I also love working on cards.
I enjoy doing anything crafty anytime of the year but in the winter when I cant get outside I enjoy working on spring projects (helps me get through the winter) and then work on and hopefully finish my Christmas album!
Thanks for the chance to win!!
you do awesome work, I enjoy your blog!!!
Such a gorgeous Xmas gift idea
Beautiful project.
I usually try to put together little brag books for the grandparents. Now, that I have purchased the new BIA I am really excited to give that a try. Wish me luck!
Ooh, when I heard Jen mention the give away I had to come over. In winter I love to scrap but recently I am beginning to get into cardmaking - around Christmas I love to make gifts this year I am using my BIA to make a book of letter and word tracings for my friends daughter!
in the winter months I always take the time to make gifts for each of the girls in the craft group I run - then when their birthdays come in the next year I have something for each of them. This winter I have 6 scrapbooks to make of my son's wedding this summer. Two are finished so just 4 more to work on.
Winter time is the time I usually get the most scrapbooking or crafting done. I believe it is the winter weather that makes this happen, plus I do get that 2 weeks off after Christmas, which is another big help. I really like to make mini books. This is the big plan this winter, and get some books made.
I always enjoy making mini albums for friends and family!
HOLY MACHERAL that is amazing I think this would make it feel alot more like christmas this year!!!
I like to scrap most all of my christmas presents (financially its a neccessity) family doesnt seem to mind sense they get lots of crafty cool stuff such as this :)
I scrap more during winter ussually. especially around the holidays.
I stay caught up though because I love to scrap. Mini albums are my most favorite. I JUST GOT A BIA as an early christmas gift from my mom!!! WHEHEW! Making my holiday presents much easier!!
I love to make mini albums as soon as possible after Christmas. We have family members overseas, so I like to make mini albums for them with photos of our christmas to share.
Well, it's not winter here... but it's still Christmas never the less. Scrapping in Christmas takes on a whole different meaning. Most of the things I do are presents or cards during this period. It truly is the season of giving.
In winter I love to scrap my summer holiday photos, a great way to remember all the fun we had and also to think about next year's holiday! I also love to make Christmas cards, and this year I even made my own advent calendar.
wow love that mini!! gorgeous...
rak??? pick me please!!! i would love to have those. Im really having a great time with my BIA here!!!
I love to scrap all of the Christmassy activities - putting the tree up, Christmas meals, shopping. I love it! And making my Christmas cards too!
My favorite thing to do in the winter after Christmas is to make Mini Coaster Albums for those that we spent Christmas with. Usually we go to our Cousins house and then to my Moms, so I like to make special albums for each of them so they can remember their time at their party that they threw.
TracEy
Oh, wow! i hope I´ll be the lucky one!!
Today I spent many hours making small books together with my 5-years old son and my Bind it All... :-)
I have only been scrapping for about a year, so mostly I am making cards, but I also like to take classes to learn new techniques and get new ideas.
I love making new mini books! And experimenting with my toys, especially my bind it all!
This time of year, I love to make mini-albums. The holidays are so busy and mini-albums are the perfect project for me to get done in little time.
Happy Holidays everyone and Merry Christmas!
I love spending time inside during the winter cozy & warm.....scrapbooking takes me to a place that I can't be right now physically but mentally it works! Your book is sooo very pretty and anyone receiving it would feel very special! You do an awesome job!
I love to scrap in the winter months. It's cooler and one can get cozy and do some crafting! I love making all sorts from mini albums, christmas decorations, scrapbook pages etc.
What a cute project, Lea. I loev to scrap this time of year, especially with my 6 year old daughter. I always make a year in review mini albujm for DH and this year my DD and I are making some decorated post it note holders for everyone. I love that she is learning that gifts don't always need to be bought from a store.
I always start with a calendar for the next year...reviewing all of the great stuff we did last year! Great thing to do when it is cold!
I love to make christmas gifts and cards! I also love to scrap christmas photos...
Thanks for the chance to win!
I love scrapping a year in review each December while drinking hot chocolate. It is the best way to reminisce about all the memories made over the last 12 months!
Oh I love to sit on the couch with a warm blanket have the TV on and just sit there and color in stamped images. Then they are all ready when I need to make one of my cards or notebooks with my bind it all of course
What a great prize. I love making mini albums of all sorts of events, be it birthday parties, Christmas, or a vacation, or just a book about a fun aspect of daily life.
I love to do Calendars for friends and family....mini albums....Christmas cards....and much more
Love your blog!
I love to scrap photos of my 2 daughters. And my husband. x
Oh, first fill my Daily December Album that you can find in my blog. Second , scrap some of the next beautiful Xmas pics I will took , sure. I want to do a banner too for my living room and say welcome to my guest !! Oops, I hope this time I can do a calendar , a nice calendar for next year to my work , a classroom in my school. Too much , I know !!!!!!
I love to photograph and then scrap a snow scene. Living in rural Maine means a lot of peaceful landscapes to capture!
I scrap everything! My children, my pets, my favorite foods ... everything is fair game in my house!
hi lea. :) winter does not apply to us but this season, i love doing pages about Christmas happenings and now that i loved doing cards, i am starting to get the hang of making Christmas cards. :)
Personally, I like to get a head start on my Fourth of July cards. My Christmas cards were finished in March so I keep myself busy with the patriotic holiday cards as well as a few for President's Day (just in case). Totally kidding - I'm in full-blown card making frenzy mode still.
I love to scrap about warm summer memories during the cold winter months!
Firstly may I just say how very much I love this blog. I never knew just how versatile the BIA is and how much I can do with it. I always have it out on a shelf on show - as before it was out of sight out of mind - never again.
I love spending time in my little craft 'shed' in the garden in the winter (it has heat!) and I look out of the window at my little bantam chickens running around. It really puts me in the mood for crafting. I have been making little note books with my BIA small enough to fit into a hand bag and nice and slim - great for shopping lists - and so many other things - a brilliant little presents for all year. This winter I am going to start a 'Year in the Life of' project - and hope to fill it will photos, little thoughts, and maybe little items I have made. Depending on how big it ends up - I will use my BIA to assemble it - maybe do and Winter book and a Summer book, and Autumn book. That's the plan!
