Personalized Anniversary Magazine CoverAshton Kutcher and wife Demi Moore will be celebrating their 5th Wedding Anniversary this September.   Being in the public eye, they are scrutinized over every move they make.  So of course, on their anniversary this fall, all paparazzi will be watching as to how they will celebrate. 

Whether they fly to St. Barts to renew their vows, go on a romantic vacation getaway or hold a huge party for themselves....I will always say, "Less is More."  Granted, I am not a celebrity, so if I had everything at my disposal maybe that would change, but for now...less is definitely more!

So Ashton...don't spend thousands, just spend some time and create a personalized magazine cover!  I know, you're asking why would he want to do that?  Ashton & Demi are on magazine covers all the time!  Well this time around he would be in control of the magazine cover's headlines and he could have them say exactly what he wanted  versus all that nonsense that is usually written about them!  It would blow all other personalized anniversary gifts out of the water!  That perfect photo captured on their wedding night, turned into the one of the most unique photo gift ideas for his one true love.  I don't think she would appreciate any other magazine cover as much, especially since it would be coming from his heart to her's.

This past year has been really hectic for me.  Everything is changing so fast.  Even the day to day weather is unpredictable!  The transition from being in school to being in the "real world" has been, to say the least, interesting...

Since I've been back from school, I've been working harder on improving myself, trying to stay positive and taking better care of myself and the people around me.   

I'm really into music.  For me, music is a great way to externalize my feelings.  There's nothing like screaming All American Reject lyrics when you're ticked off or chilling out to Bob Dylan while you're getting ready for work in the morning.  My favorite is making summer playlists of really happy upbeat songs.  

One song that I love is "You're My Best Friend" by Queen.  This song just makes me so happy and whenever I hear it, I think of my best friend.  He radiates an incredible positive energy and never fails to be optimistic.  He's the type of person that makes you wants to be a better person.  I think good friends are really important and letting them know how special they are is equally as important.  My friends are my pillars of strength and I would be nothing without them.
 

I don't really need an occasion to tell my friends how awesome they are because they are awesome ALL the time.  I may be a bit biased, but I really think that making a special gift for a friend is the perfect way to express how much they mean to you and the perfect gift for doing so is a personalized magazine cover.  With so many different magazine cover templates to choose from, it's easy to make one for any one of your friends.  

Personalized photo gift ideas like a YourCover custom magazine cover gives you an opportunity to make your friend feel like they are a star in your eyes.  Inside jokes, your favorite song lyrics, funny quirks, anything your best friend does that you absolutely love, can be the basis for a headline on the custom magazine cover!  More importantly, just spread the love!  If you have a best friend that makes you feel good and makes you happy, make them happy too and let them know how much you appreciate them!

YourCover was recently included in the blog at TeamPages.com.  TeamPages is a site that offers the coaches and managers of independent sports teams the opportunity to create a hosted web pages all about their team.  Team members (and parents) can check the team page for schedules, directions, photos, stats, etc.  It's an inexpensive service that helps to keep your team updated and organized.

TeamPages included YourCover to let their users know about the custom gift ideas we offer.  Their users can use our magazine cover templates to create a personalized photo magazne cover as an end-of-season gift for coach or as a team gift for the players on the team.

Gift for CoachOne of the unique features at YourCover is the 'copy cover' tool that allows you to create a magazine cover then 'copy' it.  After copying you can change out the photo to a different player or different coach, change one or two headlines to reflect that particular person's position, but anything you don't change stays the same. In effect you have created your own team magazine cover template that you can revise slightly for each individual without having to start from scratch each time.

Let loose and have fun this Cinco De Mayo!

What is Cinco De Mayo?  Literally it means May 5th in Spanish.  

Happy Cinco de MayoAccording to vivacincodemayo.org Cinco De Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrating the day (May 5th) that Mexican soldiers defeated the French army, who were there to collect Mexican debts. Because the war took place in Puebla, Mexico, the significance of this holiday seems somewhat regional; however it has become a holiday that many Mexicans and Americans enjoy celebrating!

I once heard that Cinco De Mayo is like a Mexican St. Patty's day because everybody just drinks and has a good time!  Here at YourCover we believe that there is nothing wrong with having fun and everyday should be a celebration.

Is it someone's birthday?  It would be really cool to be born on Cinco De Mayo and a YourCover custom magazine cover is the perfect unique personalized gift for any one.  By using your own picture and personalizing your own headlines, YourCover makes it easy and fun to create a fake magazine cover for friends and family.  

So while you're sitting back with a nice cold Corona, you can also be productive and make someone happy with an awesome gift from YourCover

Can you believe Mother's Day is almost here?  My mom is so hard to shop for, it's unbelievable.   She doesn't wear jewelry, she doesn't like receiving flowers, clothing is a definite no, and all of those gift certificates for back massages sit in her desk drawer for years!

Last year I made her dinner.  That was great because she came to visit me at school and I got to make her a special meal.  Now that we're living together full time, cooking for her isn't exactly "special".  I do it every other night!

A YourCover custom magazine cover is the greatest idea since sliced bread!  It was really fun and easy to make.  My brother also got a chance to get in on the gift by logging into my account.  Usually it's hard to coordinate gift ideas because we are so far away from each other, but YourCover.com makes it easy for us to work on a magazine cover together.

Unique gifts for mom are hard to come by, especially when your mom is as difficult to shop for as mine, so making her a personalized magazine cover with my brother has saved me a lot of time and money.  The best thing about this gift? It comes from the heart!  Moms love that...

Make this Mother's Day one she won't forget by making her a unique personalized gift she can keep forever.

Golfing Magazine Cover

All the men in my life LOVE to golf.  My dad, brothers and fiance all love to get out on the course and hit some birdies [not real one's of course!].  I'm a beginner.  Just getting my feet wet.  I played my first 9 hole course last summer and got my first golf bag for Christmas.  I definitely like the sport, it just takes A LOT of patience, which sometimes I don't have.   I want to be able to improve my game so I can keep up with the guys!  It would be nice to spend the day out playing a game of golf with my dad or my brothers, oh yeah, and my fiance too of course! ;0)

For my brother's birthday last year I made him a YourCover personalized magazine cover to showcase his golfing talent.  HE LOVED IT!!! 
I reviewed the magazine cover templates and picked the Over Par template, obviously my younger brother is not "over par" in his age, so I changed the title to Golfer'sMonthly.  I love how YourCover is completely customizable!  

It is hanging in his room as we speak and his friends ask him all the time, "How did you get on a magazine cover?!?!"  He keeps his little secret to himself, maybe only telling a few. 

Are you a part of a golfing family?  Make your personalized golf cover now!
