The Layout This is a super sweet summer layout featuring the Sweet Summer collection from Creative Memories. I have been all about angles and diagonal cut papers recently and I just love how the squares cascade down the diagonal seam. While I am not sure of the paper or the photos I will be using…
The Layout This scrapbook page from the Creative Memories blog is designed to show off the laser cut mats that are part of the Sparks of Magic collection. They are definitely adorable! I wanted to show how you can make this layout with other tools, notably the Frame Punches and the BMCs. For my live…
The Layout I love the effect of the torn edges in the layered background of this layout. The August 2021 Creative Memories Blog example uses the Denim Texture Paper Pack and You Got This Borders, which are both now retired. I will be using the new Fur Baby collection for my demo as I have…
The Layout The Genuine collection is one of my favorite collections from Creative Memories. It debuted in January 2020 and has been such a versatile staple in my stash that I am dreading using the final pieces of it! This layout really showcases why it was such a great collection! I love the torn look…
The Layout Who doesn’t love to play with their stash of punches when creating a page? I know I do! This layout is a great opportunity to mix and match border punches and elements. While the sample layout uses the same Border Maker Cartridge (the retired Spring Leaf Chain BMC) throughout the entire page, you…

The set features the (retired) Basketweave Border Punch as well as the 12-inch Decorative Trimmer. They are relatively simple borders using various techniques, but I think that makes the formulas for…
The Layout We are contemplating a new pet in our household. No firm decisions have been made, but it does have me thinking about all the fun pet layouts I would be able to make! This layout from 2019 made with the now retired Puppy Love Theme Pack is adorable. The 3-in-1 Scallop Tag Punch…
The Layout I’ve had several customers order the Jumbo Circle recently, so I thought we’d dive into another layout that uses the Jumbo Circle Pattern! This is another layout that is GREAT for using up scraps of paper and gives you a great opportunity to use border punches, decorative blades, laser cut borders and stickers!…
I just LOVE the Jumbo Circle and thought it would be fun to do a layout with this popular Custom Cutting System pattern. There are actually three layouts shown on the original Creative Memories Blog post, but I really like the look of the one shown above so it’s where we will start! You can…
It’s the last Wednesday of April, so I will be demonstrating three borders from the Creative Memories Blog. I opted to go with the Polar Lights borders from February 1st as they are just adorable, and I am also hoping that I can go with opposite day and beg Mother Nature to deliver some WARM…
