Simple Stories Simple Vintage Berry Fields and Heather Fischer

September 22, 2023 1 Comment

This gorgeous layout designed by Heather Fischer featuring the Simple Stories Simple Vintage Berry Fields collection stopped me in my tracks! I absolutely LOVE the Digital Cut File that Heather used from Jennifer Edwardson Creative Inc. It coordinates with the Berry Fields collection PERFECTLY! The vellum backing of the jar is such a fabulous effect! Here is a look at the Simple Stories Simple Vintage Berry Fields collection. Its filled with berries and roosters and jars and soft muted tones! So many possibilities with this collection. Heather also used elements from the Bits & Pieces set of this collection to embellish here and there. The ephemera in these packages are worth their weight in gold! Thanks so much for sharing your layout with us Heather. Happy Friday Friends Subscribe today to Creative Scrapbooker Magazine – We want to be your HAPPY MAIL!

Unbe-Leaf-Able Layout with Noreen Smith featuring Creative Memories

April 21, 2023 1 Comment

Hi all! It’s Noreen Smith here to share an unbe-leaf-ably easy layout idea using Creative Memories products! The lovey and intricate Unbe-Leaf-Able Recipe Template launched last spring and was such a hit that CM decided to create a coordinating paper pack and border punch to make it even easier to create a show-stopping layout! Normally you trace the shapes of the template onto paper and cut them out with Micro-Tip Scissors, but with this limited edition promo Unbe-Leaf-Able Border punch, all you have to do is punch a row of the pretty leaves, snip them apart and place them according to their location on the recipe template! Easy and fast! And of course you can use the pretty border on it’s own in lots of other layouts too! (And psst…while the recipe template is part of the main CM lineup of products, the limited edition promo Unbe-Leaf-Able Bundle is only…

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.…

Totally Tonal Layout with Noreen Smith featuring Creative Memories

January 20, 2023 No Comments

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! Each set is gorgeous on it’s own, but I had so much fun using all three colorways in my layout today! My family visited a spectacular indoor light display back in December called “Glow YYC”. Of course, there were lots…

Tuesday With The Team – Camping Themed Layout with Kim Gowdy

May 12, 2020 4 Comments

Hello Creative Scrapbookers! Kim here today with a fun camping inspired layout that I hope you’ll enjoy! I am blessed with a craft room and lots of supplies to choose from. That may sound amazing, but honestly at times I think it stalls my creativity, giving me too many choices. On this particular scrapbooking session, I narrowed down my focus and picked a few products to work with, which in turn forces the other stuff out of the wayThe products I choose to work with were, Echo Park’s Little Lumberjack collection, Elizabeth Craft Designs Planner Essentials and MultiCraft glitter. I started by adhering 2 sheets of patterned paper together using Glue Dots Adhesive Sheets. Using the die from Elizabeth Craft Designs Planner Essentials set, I cut out two pages for my layout. I didn’t stress over which directions the tabs would be. They could have been high or low on…

Using Scrapbook Papers with Large Life-Like Graphics

October 16, 2017 1 Comment

Happy Monday everyone! Kerry Engel here today on the Creative Scrapbooker Magazine blog. Don’t you just love patterned paper with large life-like quality graphics on them? Full image graphic patterned papers, such as those from Paper House Productions are so stunning I am almost afraid to use them with my photographs. I find that I just want to put the paper with the beautiful graphic images, without anything on it, in my albums! They are so gorgegeous and at the same time can be intimidating! The Creative Scrapbooker Magazine team has fallen in love with the Delish Collection from Paper House Productions. A few weeks ago Tracy McLennon also created a layout featuring this gorgoues collection of patterned paper with LARGE graphical photo quality images on them – CLICK HERE to see Tracy’s creation. Here is what I created with a few different pieces of patterned papers from Paper House…
