The Layout I have been waiting WEEKS for this layout to be shared on the Creative Memories blog so that I could do it as a demo for Scrapbook Live. The big blocks of colors just frame out the photos so nicely. I like that they are 3×4 photos in the sample as you can…
The Borders It’s the last Friday of the month and that means we are going to make some scrapbook borders! I haven’t done an episode like this in a while, so I’ve selected some borders that will be fairly simple to put together plus one that has an option for some more artistic flair! These…

The Layout I am a sucker for rounded corners, so this layout from the CM blog has been on my to-do list since it came out as part of the Life at the Lake collection. I love how the smaller photos are worked into the design and with some creative placement (and some peekaboo pockets!)…
