Hello Stamping Friends,

I'm so very excited to let you in on this amazing adventure Stampin' Up! is embarking on. This is huge and you will love it. Stampin' Up! has partenered with Becky Higgins and Project Life to offer an exclusive line of Project Life items.We need to get ready for a scrapbooking revolution with Project Life! It helps busy people (and we are all busy people, right?) document life using photos and journaling in a quick, simple, and fabulous way. We have partnered with Becky Higgins, creator of Project Life, to offer a complete line of exclusive products. 

Becky explains, "It's called Project LIFE because it's about YOUR LIFE. Whatever your life is. Whatever your stage of life. Whatever your family circumstances. Whatever your lifestyle. Project Life is designed to help anyone and everyone get their pictures into a book."  In a nutshell, it's all about spending more time making memories and less time scrapbooking them.

 

We are so very excited to let you know we've partnered with the amazing Becky Higgins to bring you the real deal-authentic Project Life products, now in exclusive Stampin' Up! colors and designs. If you've somehow missed the Project Life craze and are wondering what it's all about, we'll fill you in: it's a super simple, totally affordable way to get your photos into albums: you just slip your photos into Photo Pocket Pages and add designed cards. It's a back-to-basics approach to documenting your life. In a nutshell, it's all about spending more time making memories and less time scrapbooking them.

Check out this video for a little more information. I'm so excited. I can't wait.

Start Scrapping

Hello Stamping Friends,

 

So glad you came back today.  It is time for another Fabulous Friday posting with the Sisters in Stamping.  This week our challenge is scrapbook pages.  Time to preserve those memories for future generations, don't just keep your photos in a box or stored on a memory card. Create beautiful pages to put in books for everyone to enjoy your memories.

 

 

This is a two page 8x8 spread using the simply scrappin' kit from the Spring catalog. It coordinates beautifully with the 8x8 album that is also in the Spring catalog.  I offered this as a class in April and will be running another class for it in May (watch for the calendar in the next few days).

 

The beauty of the Simply Scrappin' kits is that almost everything you need to create beautiful pages is all together in one place. The only thing that you really need to add would be adhesive.  For this class I added some cardstock as well because we were making 20 pages to put in the scrapbook.

 

 

Look how "put together" these pages are.  And I only had to design them using the contents of the kit. So quick, so easy, and so beautiful when finished. 

 

Don't forget to head over to Sisters in Stamping to see more great scrapbook pages.
