The Layout One of my all-time favorite tools is the (now retired) Creative Memories Decorative Trimmer—it’s truly a classic! This trusty trimmer has been around for years, and I firmly believe it deserves a spot in every scrapbooker’s toolbox. Its gentle wave cut adds just the right touch of personality to borders, photo mats, and…
The Layout This layout is deceptively complex, which is sometimes the allure of the design. It does require a LOT of paper, so during my live demo I will be demonstrating how to complete it without using quite as much paper. You will definitely need a ruler or the Creative Memories 13×13 Cutting Mat. https://youtu.be/svrbwOw5b6o…
The Borders It’s the last Wednesday of August, so that means it’s time for BORDERS! It’s also back-to-school time in my household, so I think we will make some BTS borders based on the Love Each Other 2 Theme Pack borders. I selected these as I just love the various elements used in the borders…
The Layout Normally, single photo layouts aren’t quite my thing. I have too many photos to do just one per page! However, sometimes you have that one purr-fect photo that just needs to be showcased all on its own. I love that this layout design lets us play with the Creative Memories Square Punch and…
The Layout If you haven’t figured it out by now, I love all things on an angle. Give me slants, diagonals, triangles — I’m all in! In fact, I enjoy working with angled designs so much that I sometimes have to intentionally tell myself to go straight and square things up, just to change it…
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 pulling out their stash of border punches and getting creative on a scrapbook page? I know I do! This layout is the perfect chance to mix and match your favorite Border Maker Cartridges and decorative elements. The sample layout features the retired Spring Leaf Chain BMC repeated across the entire…
