💙 LOOKY, LOOKY… GUESS WHAT’S BACK IN STOCK?! 💙

And months earlier than expected, too! 🎉

The Creative Memories Eternal Blue Layout Studio is BACK, baby! 🙌

This beauty sold out almost as fast as it was released just a few short weeks ago, so if you missed out the first time, now’s your chance!

And let me tell you… I LOVE MINE! 💙

It’s lightweight, folds up beautifully, and fits perfectly into your travel cropping bag. But don’t let that fool you — it’s just as much of a game-changer in your home studio!

✨ My pages stay put while I play around with photo placement and figure out exactly where all those pretty embellishments should go.

✨ It’s easy to pack up and take along to crops and retreats.

✨ And the cats? Well, let’s just say it’s a little harder for them to flop themselves down in the middle of my layouts and redecorate my pages with their furry little bodies! 😂🐾

Practical, portable, AND cat-resistant-ish? What’s not to love?!

These have been incredibly popular, and they’re available at a fantastic price. My advice? GRAB ONE WHILE YOU CAN! I have a feeling they won’t hang around for long this time either. 😉

📦 Want to save on shipping?

I’ll be placing a group order in the next couple of days for the brand-new Creative Memories Die Cutting & Embossing Bundles, and if you’re local to me or I’ll be seeing you soon, I’m happy to add an Eternal Blue Layout Studio to the order for you!

That way, we can save you those shipping costs and put that money toward more scrappy goodies instead! 💙✂️📸

I will add the link in the comments so you can check out all the details.
Comment below or send me a message if you’d like me to add one to my order!

Happy scrapping, friends! 💙

If you love crops, retreats and crafting on the go, these are going to be game changers!

The Rolling Utility Cart features sturdy caster wheels, a splash-guard bottom designed for durability, and an easy-pull handle that makes travelling with your supplies a breeze.

And I can personally vouch for it! 🙋‍♀️

I’ve been using mine for a couple of months now, and honestly, I can’t imagine going to a retreat without it anymore!

And the French Blue Studio Backpack? 💙

I recently put it to the ultimate test — packing it FULL for a 12-hour crop AND a 4-day getaway with my spouse.

Inside, I managed to fit:

✂️ 12" trimmer
📸 Photo trimmer
📚 At least a dozen kits
📖 Scrap journal & accessories
✂️ Scissors
🎀 Tape… and EXTRA tape! 😂
📄 Cardstock
📐 Layout Studio Easel
🟦 Table mats
⭕ Circle Cutting System
🎨 Border Maker & cartridges
…and probably a few other things I’ve forgotten!

Was that perhaps a little more than Creative Memories intended? Maybe. 😂

But hey… we scrapbookers know how to pack! 😉

So… how’s THAT for a Friday Sneak Peek?! 👀🎉

Monday, October 5th can’t come soon enough!

🎈🎁🎄 Creative Memories’ Birthday Celebration is going to be a GOOD one! 🎄🎁🎈

Stay tuned — I’ll be sharing more details as soon as everything launches!

Check this beautiful border created by a fellow Creative Memories Advisor in the US.
Clever use of the newest border maker cartridges.
I LOVE the contrast.

I couldn't decide if I wanted to play with the Ink Wave Chain or Skulls Chain border maker cartridge first, so I chose both. I absolutely love using shimmer papers with punches, so used orange, lagoon, white, & black shimmer papers to coordinate with the new Midnight Magic collection. I also asked myself, "which is a creepy blade?" and came up with Deckle. Haha.

Do you have this spooky collection yet?
