The Layout I thought this week we’d explore a project from the Creative Memories Blog that is a little less intensive. This layout from August 2022 shows off the fun XL Layered Mats from the Back to School collection, but I I really like the simplicity of the design surrounding it. I also like that…
When this layout popped up in the marketing materials for the Painted Garden collection, I knew it would be a MUST DO for Scrapbook Live. I just love the 12-Inch Decorative Trimmer and any chance I get to play with it is a good day of scrapbooking! I had photos from Halloween 2006 (!) that…
The Polar Lights collection from Creative Memories is just adorable and you know how much I love triangles and clean lines, so this layout from the CM Blog is right up my alley! This is a trimmer-only layout, which makes it great for beginner scrapbookers or for those who want a quick, easy layout to…
I just love grid layouts – the clean, simple lines just speak to me (likely because nothing else in my life, including my house, seems to fall into the “clean” or “simple” category!)

I am a huge, HUGE fan of the Creative Memories Decorative Trimmer. This is a classic CM Tool and I rave about it to everyone I can and love to incorporate it into my projects. I just gasped when I saw this layout on the CM Blog and new it was a MUST DO for…
Last week we had a lot of fun with the mosaic frame – a bit of a technical challenge, but the results were well worth a few curses. 🙂 This week I am dialing it back a bit to something that is simpler, but still a visually stunning page. I plan to make a few…
This layout by Sachiyo is fantastic! The Polar Lights collection is adorable, and this layout showcases all the little details that make the collection so much fun. Sachiyo has shared a similar concept in the past, but this particular layout takes a different approach to the mosaic effect. This will be a fun one to…
Peekaboo Pockets from Creative Memories truly are a scrapper’s best friend. We all love to get several photos on a page, but at the same time we want to showcase a bit of crafty design that conveys our love of what we do. Peekaboo Pockets are a GREAT way to accomplish both tasks in the…
