CREATE Magazine



Many of you may already know about this monthly online scrapbook magazine, but if you don't, you really should check it out! Scrapbook Generation started doing this online magazine in January of this year. Each month they feature: new sketches, a scrapbook manufacturer and fun facts about them, layouts/cards/tags from the manufacturer's design team, layouts/cards/tags from Scrapbook Generation's design team AND they have a reader's gallery in each issue. You can create a layout/card/tag based on the sketches put out that month and submit them to possibly be chosen to be featured in the magazine! I have been featured in two different issues and it has been such an honor! I really urge you to take advantage of this free magazine, every issue is chock full of amazing inspiration!

Here is the link where Scrapbook Generation posts each issue of the magazine:

CREATE Magazine Issues

You can find me featured in the February issue on page 216 and 222, and also in the June issue on page 210.

Enjoy!

June Scrapbook Generation Blog Hop!



Scrapbook Generation Blog Hop

Welcome to the Scrapbook Generation Blog Hop for June. If this is your first stop, you might like to start at the Scrapbook Generation blog and then hop through each link.

Here is the layout I am showcasing for this Blog Hop:



Lately I have been working on scrapping my childhood photos. It has been so fun being able to use paper collections that I don't normally get to use since I don't have any kids of my own yet. I really enjoyed scrapping with Echo Park's Hippity Hoppity Mini Collection. It has been perfect for all of my childhood Easter photos! 

The sketch I used was originally from a Super Saver Club Kit that I got a while back. It is fun to use them over again on other layouts!  

You can find the SG sketches in their books and as downloads in the SG store, and there is a free one every month in case you wanted to try it out.

Next on the hop is Michelle, leave a comment on each blog and one lucky commenter will receive a free sketch bundle of their choice from the store. The winner will be drawn on Monday, June 9th which leaves you one week to leave a comment.

In case you get lost at any point, here is the list all the blogs
