Blog of the Week
 

Melissa Samuels: 'I teach scrapbooking, cardmaking, and altered art, so my blog contains updates about class offerings, a student gallery, and fun class photos. It's also filled with inspirational projects I'm working on at any given time, how-to videos, and basically anything scrapbooking related."

Artists across the world are celebrating with us by creating their own keepsakes. This month’s featured projects, Back to School, show a variety of ways to capture these fleeting moments. Michelle Houghton shares a sweet and simple acknowledgment to her daughter’s first day of Kindergarten. Read her commentary by clicking here.

    Layout Contest

"I made this layout with some scraps from another layout. I took this photo of my daughter and her kindergarten teacher in spring of 2009. She really loved her teacher that year. The journaling restates my daughters words, "I will see you again, love you" to her teacher. This layout is now a favorite for my daughter and me, so we put it in the living room and enjoy it daily."

Golden Artist Colors is expanding its most popular paint line, the Heavy Body Acrylics. Building on the strength of this category, GOLDEN is adding five new colors: Bismuth Vanadate Yellow, Transparent Brown Iron Oxide, Pyrrole Red Dark, Permanent Maroon, and Chromium Oxide Green Dark. Each color offers unique properties, complementing existing colors already in the family.

Documenting personal history is an important part of scrapbooking. Lend a voice to those who never had the opportunity by creating pages to celebrate their legacy. For your subject, use a long-lost relative, or a direct ancestor, or perhaps you’d even like to make up a fictional character and record their imaginary life. Click here for more information...

You can make your own, custom background paper that enhances your photos without wasting precious time searching for matchy-matchy products. Create your own unique papers by using inks, stickles, Glimmer Mist, or markers. It’s fun, creative, and saves you time and money."
