Hello everyone Kerry Engel here today on the Creative Scrapbooker Magazine blog. We had a lot of celebrating going on in my family this year. Our oldest daughter has graduated from the University of Alberta. Creative Memories Cap and Gown Collection provides a lot of inspiration for layouts and cards. This collection also has a coordinating album – which I love. Super quick and super easy. In this layout I used the Variety Mat Pack to create a faux pocket page. The only additional item I used was Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Creative Photo corners. I adhered stickers on cardstock and fussy cut out the stickers and mounted them on foam squares to create some dimension. You did it card I like the challenge of trying to create fun cards from Variety Mat Packs and stickers. I layered the 4×6 card on the 4.5×6.5 card and used stickers, Scrapbook Adhesives…

Hello everyone! Thanks for joining me on the Creative Scrapbooker blog today!
