June Project Highlight - Weekend Adventures Scrapbook Workshop

This month I am featuring the Weekend Adventures Scrapbook Workshop Kit. This kit is great to document your outdoor adventures - just in time for the summer! I used this kit to highlight our traves from last summer. This would be great for hiking, camping, boating, and just general outside adventures! I did modify the layout from the original design so that I could add more photos to my layout.

November Project Highlight - Halloween Memories and Autumn to Remember

It's been a while since I have blogged, but there was a lot of changes happening. With the closing of Close To My Heart in May 2024, I have decided to join Stampin' Up! as a Demonstrator. This will be my first Blog entry with the Stampin' Up! products.

This month I am showcasing two Scrapbook Workshops that I am sure you will love!

First Scrapbook Workshop is Halloween Memories! This is a great workshop to highlight your Halloween Memories - and it doesn't have to be just the kids either. I used this paper pack to document us going to Salem last year and love how they came out! You can see this kit here on my website. I did change the layouts a little so that I could add more photos to the layouts.

January Project Highlight - Let's Party

If you need a paper pack to highlight your Birthday Celebrations, then the Let's Party Paper Pack will be it! It can be used for both male or female photos! I used this paper pack to highlight my daughters Birthday Parties. In these pages, I used the Let's Party Workshop Kit. I did modify the layouts a little bit as I had more photos I wanted to use. But that is the beauty of these kits - you can use it as a foundation for your layout and change it as needed! I did use the Let's Party Scrapbooking Stamp and Thin Cuts to add the numbers to the layouts.
