I shared this layout at my recent Creative Day Getaway event. It is a wonderful page to showcase our new In Colors and because the background 12x12 can be any of the five colors it is actually easy to run this as a class! I featured the To a Wild Rose and Floral Essence stamp sets on the layout as well as the new DSP.
Years ago Stampin’ Up! had partnered with Becky Higgins and her Project Life concept to introduce pocket style scrapbooking to our stamping’ audience. When the partnership ended Stampin’ Up! created their own line, Memories and More. I think they have done an amazing job with this product line. The price point is awesome and they are always thoughtful in the embellishment and product add-ons that you can order to take this form of memory keeping to the next level. Yes, you can keep it simple but that is not the Brenda way…if you have attended any of my classes you know this as #TRUTH! I have been running pocket style scrapbook classes for several years and would like to think I have almost perfected my craft! I offer a 6 month running class series and a couple times a year I offer an all day event. The En Route bundle (sadly now retired) is my feature for my all day class on Sunday! I wanted to give you a sneak peek of what the girls are coming and hopefully peek your interest to try my next class series!
Something I hear a lot in regards to memory keeping is that people just don’t know where to start. If you are seasoned card maker or a newbie stamper, I often find scrapbook page inspiration from my cards. Try looking at your 12x12 as a ‘card front’. It is after all, just a bigger canvas! Here you can see how I took this card (inspired by a project in the new annual catalogue) and recreated it as a page layout! Often we have more space so we can add in extra phrases, layers or embellishments onto our pages too.
I know I absolutely love a rainbow and when I can make something with a color scheme it just makes my whole heart happy! I was so excited to play with our new In Colors (Roccoco Rose, Pretty Peakcock, Terracotta Tile, Seaside Spray and Purple Posey) and add them into a rainbow lineup! I love how amazing our colors all look together! This layout was actually quite quick to put together using the Tailored Tag punch!
A passion for paper crafting has lead me to be a creative coach while designing and sharing what I love!
I have been creating with Stampin’ Up! since 2006 and have loved every minute! Along with my love of creating, I love to bake and share our families favorite recipes here in the Lifestyle Section, a dog mom to my cuddly Frenchie, and work full time at lululemon.
