Brandon Coleman was welcomed into this world on March 3, 2010 @ 1:44pm, weighing in at 7 lbs 1 oz - 18 inches. It does sound like we are preparing him for his match in the ring, but he's not quite ready for that yet. His mother Karen will probably never allow him to be ready for that anyway!
Karen and Karl are new parents and they are snapping pictures like crazy of their new little guy doing his "firsts" around the house. Sitting up, smiling, peeing while changing his diaper....ohhh the adventures!
They grow so fast and I thought they would appreciate a unique photo gift made from one of their many photos to look back on. This fake magazine cover from YourCover personalized magazine covers, was so fun & easy to use, I was amazed at how great the final product was!
I might just wait to give it to him as a personalized birthday gift for his 1st Birthday, but I don't know if I can hold on that long...Brandon is just so darn cute in his little bear towel! I think his parents will agree :O)
Here are the TOP 5 pieces of advice that have helped me when I was down:
1) Don't wish so hard for tomorrow because then you'll miss out on today. And tomorrow, you'll wish it were yesterday.
2) Never underestimate the power of a compliment.
3) If you're always waiting for the right time, it'll never come. Just do it.
4) Jealousy is not a sign of love, but a sign of insecurity.
5) And express yourself! Don't hold anything back (except if it's mean).
If nothing else, looking to happier times really makes me feel much much better.
Fake magazine covers are really the perfect pick-me-up for anyone and everyone. You can make it for yourself, or you can make it for someone you know! Why is it so great? Well it gives you the opportunity to creatively put together some of your greatest memories with the use of pictures and headlines. It's also an instant gift that can instantly make someone happy. Most importantly, it's a great way to show someone how much you care, and that's sure to pick anyone up from a low down funk.
It's a lot of fun to be 16 these days...for the birthday party anyway. Take fun pictures, have a huge party, nice gifts...the works! You might as well roll out the red carpet for them, as most 16 year olds get catered to on their special day.
The perfect sweet 16 gift that would make them feel like a star is putting them on a fake magazine cover! You're definitely not part of the red carpet or Hollywood unless you are on the front cover of a magazine! She will be ECSTATIC over this personalized birthday gift!
Laila had professional pictures done before her big party & I had contacted her mom so I can come up with best birthday gift ideas. It was by far the best choice...she's ready to walk the red carpet!
Sadly, as a stereotypical college kid I don't have the resources to get him box seats to a Mets game, or even the time to go with him! So I got to thinking, what gift would put the biggest smile on my brother's face. And I realized, what guy in your life has never pictured himself on the cover of Sports Illustrated or Time Magazine? At YourCover you can put your favorite guy right on his own personalized magazine cover that says anything you want it to say. With a library of headlines and taglines a personalized magazine cover from YourCover is sure to be a unique and heartfelt gift. My brother will finally be a star, thanks to his favorite sister (I hope it doesn't make his ego any bigger than it already is)! Happy Birthday Shea!
I thought it would be a great idea to commemorate this special time in her life by making her a fake magazine cover, (but really, it's so much more than that!) Her husband (my uncle) loves to take pictures so I had many to choose from.
I can't even begin to tell you about her elated reaction. She laughed at the headlines I wrote for her and when she looked at all the great family pictures on the back cover, she started to cry with joy! Honestly, I had never seen a reaction like that before, nor was I expecting it, but nonetheless, the YourCover magazine cover was a hit at the party and everyone kept telling me that my personalized birthday gift was one of the best birthday gift ideas they've seen in a while.
If you know someone who's about to turn 50, make them remember all of the great successes in their life and remind them how much everyone loves them. This is honestly one of the best ideas for 50th birthday gift that you'll come across, I guarantee it!
As Louise Mattlage states in Women and Aging: "I've known younger women who were only forty and (who seemed) older than I was at fifty. Fifty? Who's talking about fifty? That's youth. That's at the very crest of success. No, not the crest, for that would indicate the subsiding, the demise. Fifty is simply young. It has health. Beauty. A rich background of talents and the means to express them. Fifty is strong. Fifty is the end of the burdens of a retarded childhood, one's own and one's children's. It is freedom from menstruation. It is full of power. It is being totally alive and having plenty of time to be alive."

It must be years since the last time I have been in a tanning bed. I think I went the last time because I wanted to get a base tan before a vacation so I wouldn't burn, but since then, I haven't gone for a couple of reasons.
- I hear an advertisement played on the radio almost everyday stating, "Tanning once a month can increase your chance of skin cancer by 75%."
- It's an expense that I don't need.
Creating a fake magazine cover would have been a much better and healthier way to express my vanity! It would be the perfect romantic gift idea for my husband-to-be for our wedding day. That perfect personalized gift that expresses my feelings for just him and I alone.
What's even better, is that it doesn't increase my chance of skin cancer by 75% and my soon-to-be husband can enjoy it with me too [he doesn't enjoy tanning]. YourCover personalized magazine covers is your instant gift for special occasion to remember forever!
With his birthday coming up in a little over a week, I thought of the perfect gift. Although my dad will never be on the real cover of Sports Illustrated, why not create a fake magazine cover for him! Personalized magazine covers are great birthday gifts for guys because it lets me showcase my dad in all his baseball-uniformed glory. Creating a fake magazine cover from YourCover allows me to fully customize exactly what headline and which taglines describe my dad the best. I'm thinking..."#1 Red Sox Pick 2010" and "Dave 'The One Hipped Wonder' Swings Big" for starters. Nothing can celebrate and commemorate my dad like a unique, specially made, fake magazine cover, because there is no one else like him!
All in all, even though he may not be hitting home runs like David Ortiz or pitching any perfect games, he is still the best baseball player I know (shh, don't tell my brother).
You might have heard of the MTV show 'Jersey Shore.' Whether you have had the pleasure of watching an episode or two or have read some headlines in the paper on the news, you have likely heard the name "Snooki" [real name Nicole Polizzi], the now famous and somewhat infamous 4' 9" Guidette star of MTV's hit series.
In yesterday's Style section of The New York Times, Snooki describes how she came to be on the show:
"...saw an ad on Facebook. They were calling out Guidos and Guidettes, and I thought, "Hello!” Snooki said on the Miami set. “So I went and I auditioned and here I am." Today she has 300,000 followers on Twitter but no idea how much money she has. “Not a clue,” said her dad, who handles her finances and deals with her manager, Scott Talarico of Neon Entertainment in Buffalo. (According to published reports, the cast members each received $10,000 an episode and are expected to get $30,000 an episode in the third season.)"
Snooki went from a regular gal (well maybe not all that regular) to an overnight sensation! She has been on magazine covers for both good and bad publicity. YourCover personalized magazine covers has made her a fake magazine cover that shows that instant success can be an instant gift!
The author of this review is a Grandmother who made the fake magazine covers for her granddaughters. She even included a terrific photo of one of the girls holding her birthday gift. See what she has to say below:
"I've been begging my grandkids to stand still for pictures to no avail. Once I told them - especially the girls! - that I was considering sending their pictures to a magazine to use on their cover, they were suddenly VERY cooperative, and I now have great pix. INCLUDING the pictures of them opening their very own, personalized, birthday Magazine Covers! This will now be an annual event - I couldn't be happier!"
