Scrapbooking Layout by Mendi and Joy

“This was my first time creating a traditional layout almost exclusively with digital papers and it opened up a whole new world to me!  I love how I was able to print just the amount of paper I needed for my specific needs and how this cute paper set works for both holiday and winter snow themes.  Check out my blog today to see how I was able to minimize paper waste and saved on ink.”
Joy says: “I don’t often make layouts but this one is so cute, I just had to try it!  If you’re like me and don’t do much scrapbooking you might consider trying the Sweet Layout, filling it with digital color and adding a special photo.  It was a fun and easy way to make an adorable decorative item that also is very memorable for our family.  I used the Silhouette software to color the different layers of the file.  Next, I imported the photo I wanted to use and added text about our trip.  I printed it out and used my Silhouette to cut the image.  I decided to duplicate that pretty shape you see as my border and cut it out using a thin chipboard.  Using Lori’s new “Love Story” line of paper with Echo Park, I cut a pretty background to cover the chipboard and glued it down.  Pop dots helped me raise my photo scrapbook image for added dimension.  I just love the way this turned out!  It’s now living happily on my mantel.  Perfect for this time of year!”
Thanks ladies, your projects look great!

A Special Giveaway

About a month ago I was contacted by Lori Gentile about a new kit club she’s starting. She wanted me to contribute to her monthly kits. I thought it sounded interesting and decided to join in the fun. The site launched TODAY. And, it’s so cute! You need to go check it out.

Gossamer Blue is a new monthly kit club dedicated to inspiring and motivating memory keepers and crafters alike. Each main kit is well coordinated with a mix of products from multiple manufacturers. The best part? Each main kit features a set of Lori Whitlock digital designs. The digital file contains both SVG (for use with electronic die cutting machines) and PNG files custom colored to match the kit (for use in Photoshop and/or Word). The designs are current, stylish and practical and can be used over and over, again.

This is the first month’s kit. Isn’t it CUTE!

Here’s a layout created by Cindy Liebel using the new kit. You’ll notice that she used a special edition of my “7 Tabs” cutting file found HERE. Great layout Cindy!

Cards, cards, cards

Today I want to share with you what the talented Carolyn has been up to. She has a few cards she has created using papers and shapes that Lori has designed.  First is this teacher card that uses Echo Park’s “Charming” collection.  I love that it is more mature looking yet still has the school feel, great job Carolyn.

Next is this adorable card from Echo Park’s “Hello Summer” collection. The paper and tree were designed by Lori.  I love how Carolyn wrapped the leaves with the twine, cleaver idea.

Finally is this simple yet beautiful card. I love the white space surrounding the birdhouse. Thanks Carolyn, these are beautiful, as always.  She has posted more info for these cards on her blog here

Charming and Graceful

Can you ever get enough of these beautiful collections from Echo Park designed by Lori? I know I can’t, so when I saw these pages by Natalie, I just had to share.   First she showcases Echo Park’s Graceful collection.

Then of course Echo Park’s counterpart to Graceful, Charming.

Thanks Natalie for your hard work, these are beautiful.  Happy crafting… Lisa
