Sketchy Challenge, a Honey Bee Layout

July 3, 2023 No Comments

Hello Creative Scrapbookers! Kim here, hope you are settling into a great summer routine and finding time to enjoy these lovely, long days! I love the extra energy the sunshine seems to gift us, I find time to enjoy so much more, and that includes scrapbooking. Even after a busy day, I am ready for an hour or two to unwind in my craft room. This week I pulled out the March Sketchy Challenge again. My first layout with this sketch can be found on the Facebook Sketchy Gallery. I took the scale down to an 8.25 x 8.25, and believe it or not I used an instruction book that came with a recent purchase. It’s a good base to create over, travellers notebook size and a fun way to up-cycle some waste. Once I have figured out where I want my papers and emebellishments to be, I like to…

The four destinations featured – as voted on by Creative Memories Advisors! – are Florida, Great Lakes, New York City and Washington, D.C., and of course these new paper packs and stickers will be great for documenting your trips to those destinations.

Therm O Web Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo

January 27, 2023 No Comments

Now, if this layout designed by Desiree Saskiw could speak it would say SUNSHINE and HAPPINESS! Am I right or am I right?What a beautiful bright happy design. Desiree built the background starting with a white piece of heavy white Super Stock and then started adding layers of different types of texture. One of the elements that really jumps out on this layout for me are the FOILS! They are all the rage right now and can be a bit overwhelming. Whether you are just starting out OR are a seasoned “foiler” be sure to reach for Therm O Web Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo. This fabulous medium allows you to add foils to your projects WITH or WITHOUT heat! Come again?!?!?!?!?! Love that versatility! Desiree used an alphabet script stencil, the Transfer Gel Duo and Foil Transfer Sheets to create the beautiful shiny script you see in the background.…

Hey there! It’s Noreen Smith here to share a fun layout using all three colorful variations of the new Totally Tonal papers and stickers from Creative Memories! I love these new tonal collections and how they match perfectly with CM’s exclusive new mill-run cardstock! During each quarter of 2023, CM will offer tonal collections in three different colors, so you’ll want to purchase them throughout the year so you can use them with ALL the coordinating cardstock and other collections! I love being able to mix and match perfectly! For Quarter 1 (January through March) the three Totally Tonal collections feature the colors Baby Blue, Island Waters and Purple Ice!

Hello, Winter Layout with Noreen Smith

December 1, 2022 No Comments

Hi scrappy friends! Noreen Smith here to share a wonderful wintery layout with you today! Winter has definitely arrived where I live – we are in firmly the deep freeze, and we’ve already had over 10 inches of snow so far in November. But there’s no denying that a snowy day in Alberta – no matter how cold it is! – is beautiful, and I am lucky to live close to some of the most magical places to enjoy winter. I pulled out some photos of a winter getaway to the Chateau Lake Louise from a couple of years ago to use on this layout featuring the pretty Polar Lights collection from Creative Memories! Here is my layout. I absolutely love this color combination of various shades of blue paired with turquoise, icy purple and a touch of neutral beige. It’s perfect to capture all the beautiful colors of winter…
