Scrapbook Border Pairs – the Perfect Duo! It’s the last Friday of the month, which means Scrapbook Live is all about borders. For this session, I’m revisiting a Creative Memories blog ideas from 2019 that feature “border duos”—a coordinating pair of borders designed to work together. These duos can be used at the top and…
Cats, Dogs and Everything in Between For this episode of Scrapbook Live, I will be creating a single-page layout inspired by a project from the Creative Memories blog.

There’s just something about those soft, curved edges that instantly makes a page feel…
I’ve had my eye on this project for a while — it’s one of those layouts that instantly grabs your attention and feels destined to become a true showstopper in an album. The original design was created with Creative Memories’ Emerald Gemstone collection (now retired), but I couldn’t resist re-imagining it with the Silver &…
Revisiting a Creative Memories Holiday Scrapbook Layout When it comes to scrapbooking, I love revisiting past projects and giving them a fresh spin. For this week’s Scrapbook Live, I thought it would be fun to look back at some Christmas scrapbook layouts that were originally shared on the Creative Memories Blog. One project from October…
I did you receive the 110 Scrapbooking Border Ideas & Sketches book from Creative Memories as part of their birthday promotion earlier this month? It’s a fantastic collection of borders from the Creative Memories blog and had fun flipping through it to look for ideas for this month’s borders for Scrapbook Live. I’ve selected a…
