I've made money holders, screen savers, candy bar wrappers, popcorn wrappers, badge holder album and gift cards/envelopes. I'm trying to gather up some projects for after the GO! Got to get a start on Christmas!

Your wine label looks fantastic Trina!

I've done cards and I do a cool calendar for work each each month. Last year I printed out some Christmas swirls on that clear type paper that's supposed to stick to things to wrap around a big candle. was cute but it didn't stick well. I also print jazzed up photos of nieces and nephews and print them on 4x6 magnets for their Mom's frig.

I've done calendars and cards. I also use them when I do pages for my personal photo albums. My scrapbook pages are for posting and I don't print them. My personal pages are for printing and I don't post them. Sometimes they are very much alike though!

Umm........nothing. LOL Well, I've made a desktop, that's about it.

Hey Michelle, what size do you make the bookmarks? Or are there templates out there?

There were templates here around the holidays when the Den was open before. We even had a bookmark exchange. Several other templates, too, for some of the things below.

I've also done
cards (I've only bought a couple of cards in the past 3 years, made the rest with digi-kits.)
Invitations
candy bar wrappers

I make many things, but my favorite is.. every Christmas eve,I hold open house for family and friends, and for each family I make a mini box with a photo of them on the front, decorated for the season, and then I put Hershey Kisses inside. When you open the lid it says.. Holiday hugs and kisses from us. Also has a ribbon so you can hang it on the tree. I'm almost sure this is a pattern from the old DDD. This is everyone's Christmas card, and they love it!

Many of the things mentioned in previous posts plus Treasure Hunt clues for all the children in the extended family when we all get together on Boxing Day. :)

I make cards, gift albums, crafts for my kids and holiday gifts for teachers and friends. My scrapbook stash has been kind of lonely since I started digi scrapping though!

I don't think anyone has mentioned this one but I made Xmas place-mats for the kids and then had them laminated. They used them for Xmas dinner and now use them as playdoh mats.

And thanks for all the great ideas gals!
