Fall Scrapbook Layouts

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Creative Life Scrapbooking, Croptoberfest Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts, Halloween Scrapbook Layouts by

Before we get too far into the winter season, I want to share a few fall layouts that I created this year. I originally shared these layouts with Creative Life Scrapbooking as I’m one of the 7 designers on the CLS team. Make sure to like and follow us on Facebook as we share new layout ideas each week, and our annual Holly Days feature will begin on December 8th.

My first layout is full of fun owls! I used the Owl Build-A-Punch from Creative Memories to create this grid style layout. I used paper from the 2023 Croptoberfest Kit and Accessory Paper Pack for the squares and a variety mat and stickers from the Autumn Harvest Collection. I also used the Leafy Vine Border Punch. By changing the placement of the eyeballs, I created different expressions on the owls. Unfortunately, the Owl Build-A-Punch is now sold out, but hopefully many of you were able to purchase it earlier this fall.

For a printable PDF handout with instructions, please see the Creative Life Scrapbooking website.

To view a demo of the Owl Build-A-Punch, please see the Creative Life Scrapbooking YouTube channel. Please also subscribe to our channel to see many more quick demo videos.

Look close! For this layout, I used the Owl Build-A-Punch (sold out) to create black cats for Halloween! With just a few strokes with a fine tip silver pen, I transformed the owls into cute cats. I also love how the pumpkins mimic cat eyes! The layout is topped off with a border that I punched using the Original Border Maker System and the Bats & Stars Border Maker Cartridge. I used papers from the Sunflowers Field Paper Pack and Black Cardstock.

For printable PDF instructions, please see the Creative Life Scrapbooking website.

For my last layout, I was inspired by the cover of a Southern Living magazine to create my gorgeous layered pumpkin embellishment. For this layout, I used papers and stickers from the beautiful Autumn Harvest Collection. I love the unexpected shade of blue in this collection! It’s a bright and fun alternative to green. I also used the 12-Inch Decorative Trimmer, Pumpkin Patch Frame Punch (now sold out), Leafy Vine Border Punch and the Sweet Blossom Trio Punch (exclusive).


Instructions for this layout, can also be found on the Creative Life Scrapbooking website.

To purchase some of the tools and materials that I used for these layouts, please see my Creative Memories page. I so appreciate your support of my business!


Make sure to like and follow our Creative Life Scrapbooking Facebook Page as our annual Holly Days feature will begin on December 8th. For seven consecutive days, the CLS designers will each share a new winter holiday layout!

Happy Scrapping!

Folded Reveal Scrapbook Layout

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts, Winter Scrapbook Layouts by

I used an easy folding technique for my layouts today. It’s a simple concept that results in a big impact.

To create the layout, you’ll need two sheets of designer paper and a coordinating sheet of cardstock. One of the paper pieces will be your reveal piece, so select a cute print for that. You’ll use both sides of the second sheet of designer paper that you fold.

You’ll only need your 12-Inch Trimmer with a decorative blade. I used the Scallop Blade for both of my layouts. I used the Autumn Harvest Collection for my first layout and the Nordic Winter Collection for my second layout.

Please see my YouTube video for a quick demo of how to create the layout.

Click Here to View Video Instructions.

This layout can also be turned on its side, so that the reveal portion is at the top or bottom of the layout. I can’t wait to see all of your different versions! For an entry into my Monthly Door Prize Drawing, please share a photo of your layout with us in my Facebook group, Karyn’s Croppers. Go to the Technique Tuesday 52 Album and click the ADD PHOTO button to upload your photo into the album.

All of the tools and materials that I used can be found on my Creative Memories website.

Jumbo Square Frame Fall Layout

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Croptoberfest Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts by

I was happy when Creative Memories recently introduced a new jumbo cutting pattern and also brought back an older pattern to our Custom Cutting line. The Jumbo Square Frame and the Jumbo Wavy Frame Custom Cutting System Patterns help us create interesting backgrounds for our layouts. The patterns are easy to use with our Cutting Mats and blades, and the pieces can be cut apart to create even more patterns.

I used the Custom Cutting System with the new Jumbo Square Frame Pattern and paper and stickers from the 2023 Croptoberfest Kit to create the layout above. I also used White and Navy Cardstocks and a Navy Dual-Tip Pen to add faux stitching. These items are currently available to purchase through my Creative Memories website link. I appreciate your purchases and offer a generous Customer Rewards Program.

Croptoberfest Layout with Hollow Circles

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Croptoberfest Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts by

It’s one of my favorite times of the year – the start of the fall scrapbooking season! As the kids are back in school and summer vacations are over, we all start to settle back into our old routines and get back to our regular scrapbooking. To celebrate the season, Creative Memories releases a special Croptoberfest Collection each year, and this year’s Croptoberfest materials are really beautiful in shades of blues and browns with cute owl accents.

I used materials from the 2023 Croptoberfest Kit and Mini Embellishments to create the layout above. The adorable Owl Punch was released at the same as the Croptoberfest materials, and it coordinates beautifully with the collection. The Owl Punch has been so popular that it’s already in low quantity, so please purchase it right away if you love it.

I also used the current Field Fence and Leafy Vine Border Punches and the retired Simple Leaf and Pinecone Punches to complete my layout.

Please see my YouTube channel for a demonstration of how to punch the hollow vine circles and also how to use the Owl Punch.


This page is one half of a double-page layout that I created for my Virtual Croptoberfest Workshop on September 23rd. For my workshop, I created 4 double-page layouts and one single-page layout. These are exclusive layouts that I won’t share elsewhere and are for your personal use only.

All of the class sessions will include printable instructional handouts and pre-recorded video instructions. We’ll meet on Zoom on the 23rd to create the layouts together. But if you can’t be on Zoom with me, you will still get access to the instructional handouts and videos.

Home Sweet Home Spooky & Sweet Scrapbook Layouts

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Creative Life Scrapbooking, Creative Memories Border Maker Ideas, Fall Scrapbook Layouts, Family Scrapbook Layouts, Halloween Scrapbook Layouts, Scrapbook Page Layouts, Summer Scrapbook Layouts by

I love creating scrapbook layouts and sharing them with you here! But I also share layouts on Facebook through a group called Creative Life Scrapbooking. Creative Life Scrapbooking is a group of 7 Creative Memories advisors who are passionate about CM products and share twice a week with ideas for using CM’s tools and materials. We also host quarterly virtual crops called PJ Parties. Our next PJ Party is November 4th. If you can’t participate on Zoom with us, you can still register to receive access to the recorded videos and printable layout instructions. To learn more and to register for the PJ Party, please see our website. We also offer printable Idea Books and access to past PJ Parties on our website.

Spooky!

I used the Original Border Maker System with the Home Sweet Home Border Maker Cartridge to create a spooky layout and a sweet layout. Below is my spooky cute Halloween layout that I created with the Happy Hauntings Collection from CM and shared with Creative Life Scrapbooking today.


I used CM’s Original Border Maker System with the new Bats & Stars, Home Sweet Home and Ghost Chain (retired) Border Maker Cartridges to create a spooky street border for the top of the layout. I added some fun shadows and cobwebs with our White Chalk Pen. Further down the page, I used the new Spider Web Frame Punch to create individual spider webs to adorn the layout. For step-by-step instructions, please see my original Facebook post.

Sweet!

A few weeks ago, I created this super sweet layout using the Original Border Maker System and Home Sweet Home Border Maker Cartridge and also shared it with Creative Life Scrapbooking.

I used the housing unit of the Original Border Maker System as a hand-held punch and punched around the outside edge of circle. The houses came to life with a little work with a Micro-Tip Black Pen. I added a few other pieces from a variety of CM punches and border maker cartridges to create a super sweet street scene.

Please see my original Facebook post with Creative Life Scrapbooking for instructions. If you would like a printable handout with instructions, please see our CLS 2022 Idea Book Volume 3.

If you would like to purchase any of the tools or materials that I used for these layouts, I would appreciate your orders through my Creative Memories website. I also offer a generous Customer Rewards Program.

Fall Layouts with Maple Leaf Recipe Template and Custom Cutting System Acorns

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Croptoberfest Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts, Outdoor Scrapbook Layouts by

Today I’m sharing two layouts that I created with the Maple Leaf Recipe Template from Creative Memories. The recipe templates are so versatile and can be used to create many different patterns and layouts. For my layouts, I selected not to use the diagonal sections around the outside of the template but rather just the center leaf.

For my first layout, I used the Croptoberfest 2022 Project Recipe Kit and 2022 Croptoberfest Mini Pack Embellishments. If you love these materials, please consider joining me for my Virtual Croptoberfest Workshop on October 15th. We’ll be live on Zoom, but the page classes will be recorded, and I’ll provide printable handouts for the 6 exclusive original layouts that I’ve designed for this event. Please click here to register now.

I used the Maple Leaf Recipe Template to trace my large leaves, and I used the Custom Cutting System with Oval Patterns to create my fun acorns. I used the Pure Brown Dual-Tip Pen to ink the edges of all of the paper pieces of this layout.

For detailed instructions and a step-by-step demonstration on how to create the acorns and this layout, please view my video on YouTube.

Please share your version of this layout to my Facebook group, Karyn’s Croppers for an entry into my October Door Prize.

I created and shared my second layout with Creative Life Scrapbooking on Facebook. For this layout, I used the Maple Leaf Recipe Template and the new Golden Harvest Collection from Creative Memories. This is a gorgeous fall collection with beautiful, foiled embellishments and fun layered border embellishments. For instructions to create this layout, please see my original post to Creative Life Scrapbooking.

All of the tools and materials that I used are available to purchase through my Creative Memories website link. I appreciate all of your orders and offer a generous Customer Rewards Program.

More It’s Fall Y’all Scrapbook Layouts

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts, Outdoor Scrapbook Layouts by

Once I started playing with the beautiful It’s Fall Y’all Collection from Creative Memories, I couldn’t stop! I created a versatile double-page layout to share during our Creative Life Scrapbook PJ Party and continued to create a few more. If you love my PJ Party Demo Layout that featured the Wheatfield Border Punch, you’ll likely also love the layout below.

Read below for information about Creative Memories 2021 Black Friday Promo and how to get FREE products with a purchase!

After punching my designer paper with the Wheatfield Border Punch, I cut the border apart to create individual stalks of wheat that I gathered together to create a fall sheave. I completed the wheat bundle with a hand-tied raffia-style bow. Please view my video on You Tube for a demo on how to tie the bow. Please note that the Wheatfield Border Punch was a promotional punch offered by Creative Memories earlier this year and is no longer available.

However, Creative Memories is offering three new exclusive punches as part of our 2021 Black Friday Promotion! With a purchase of $160, you can select one of three FREE bundles of product that include an exclusive collection of paper, stickers and embellishments, an album and also a unique exclusive punch. Click here for more information about our Black Friday Promotion.

To Create My Layout:

1. Cut a 1-3/4″ “L”-shape from a piece of the plaid designer paper.
2. Place a sheet of the ledger print paper on top of the “L” piece at an angle and adhere. Use the 12″ Trimmer to cut off the excess
paper to create a 12″ x 12″ piece.
3. Punch gold designer paper with the Wheatfield Border Punch. Use the 12″ Trimmer to cut in-between the individual wheat
stalks. Use the sight guides on the 12″ Trimmer to help you align the paper.

12″ Trimmer Sight Guides

4. Layer and adhere the individual wheat stalks into a sheave. My stalks are 6-1/2″ – 4-3/4″ in height.
5. Cut a 1/8″ strip of Hot Fudge Cardstock, and tie into a raffia-style bow. Attach the bow with a small Foam Square. See my video for a demo on how to tie the bow.
6. Complete the layout with photo mats, embellishments and stickers.


My second layout will be great for some photos that I took while my husband and I took a drive to view the fall color. I really love the color palette of the It’s Fall Y’all Collection! I also love the ledger and grid prints in the It’s Fall Y’all Tone on Tone Paper Pack. They provide a fresh contrast for the designer prints. I used the Five Leaf Punch to create a cascading border of fall colored leaves to accent the layout.



To Create My Layout:

1. Cut 1″ hollow frames from two sheets of Navy Cardstock.
2. Cut two sheets of green leaf paper to 11-3/4″ x 11-1/2″. Attach the leaf paper pieces to the navy frames abutting the right and
left edges together to create a double-page.
3. To create the border, cut a 1-3/4″ x 11-1/2″ strip from Navy Cardstock. Cut a 1-1/2″ x 11-1/4″ strip from grid paper. Layer and
adhere the pieces.
4. Use the Five Leaf Punch to punch leaves from a variety of designer papers. Working from the bottom of the border, attach the
leaves with small Foam Squares under the single leaves.
5. From Navy Cardstock, cut the following pieces: (4) 2-7/8″ x 1-5/8″; (1) 2-7/8″ x 4-1/8″; (1) 6-1/4″ x 1-5/8″; and (1) 2-1/4″ x 4-
1/4″. From grid paper, cut the following pieces: (1) 2-3/4″ x 4″; (1) 6-1/8″ x 1-3/8″; and (1) 2-1/8″ x 4-1/8″. From navy tree
paper, cut (4) 2-3/4″ x 1-1/2″. Layer and adhere pieces.
6. Cut 5 photo mats that measure 4-1/4″ x 6-1/4″.
7. Arrange pieces on the layout and adhere.
8. Add stickers, embellishments and additional punched leaves as shown using Foam Squares to adhere some.

FREE WITH PURCHASE!

It’s Fall Y’all Scrapbook Layouts

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts by

Well, hello! It’s time to share some fall themed scrapbook layouts. I made the layouts below using the Fall Y’all Collection from Creative Memories and will be sharing a few more layouts in a few days. I absolutely love the color palette of this collection which contains a mix of purples and navy with the more traditional fall shades of orange, green and gold. I also love the ledger and grid print papers in the It’s Fall Y’all Tone-on-Tone Paper Pack. The embellishments are super cute, and some contain a white matte foil stitched design for a truly charming touch.

I created my first layout with a fun grid technique. I used the discontinued Jumbo Scallop Circle Cutting Pattern, but you can easily substitute our Jumbo Circle Cutting Pattern or any of our other older jumbo patterns. I finished my layout with a laser cut border, two stickers and a variety mat cut into an oval. All of these pieces are also from the It’s Fall Y’all Collection.



Please see my You Tube Channel to view an instructional video of how to create this layout.

I would love to see your version of this layout! Please join my private Facebook group, Karyn’s Croppers, and use this technique to make your own layout and share it into the appropriate Album in Karyn’s Croppers.

I created my second layout with the relief piece of gourd print paper that was leftover from my first layout. I also used a sheet of Blush Cardstock that was part of the Cardstock Buffet offered by Creative Memories this past summer.

About four times a year, Creative Memories offers either a Cardstock and/or Paper Buffet Promotion where exclusive shades of cardstock or paper are available. These colors are unique and not part of our normal product line, however they are designed to coordinate with up-coming collections. On November 1st, CM launched a new Paper Buffet that features six unique colors of solid-core paper. The solid core papers have a paper weight of 45 pounds and are lighter than our normal cardstock but heavier than our designers papers. If you purchase six packs, you receive a FREE pack of Parakeet Shimmer Cardstock. These unique colors should coordinate with up-coming collections.

Purchase Now

To create my layout:

1. Adhere the leftover piece of gourd paper from my first layout to a sheet of Blush Cardstock. Alternatively, use the CCS with the Jumbo Scallop Circle Pattern (or substitute another jumbo pattern) and Red Blade on the outside edge to cut a piece from gourd paper. Use the relief piece.
2. Use the CCS with Jumbo Scallop Circle Pattern and Blue and Red Blades on the outside edge to cut a hollow frame from purple paper. Cut with the Blue Blade first and without moving the pattern, cut again with the Red Blade. Adhere to the layout as shown.
3. Use the CCS with the #4 or largest Oval Pattern and Blue Blade on the outside edge to cut one oval from orange print paper and two partial ovals.
4. Adhere the ovals to the center of the layout leaving about 1/4″ in-between the pieces as shown.
5. Freehand draw/cut a stem from purple print paper. Adhere as shown.
6. Use the CCS with the #3 Oval Pattern (third largest) and Green Blade on the outside edge to cut a photo mat from purple paper. Use the Red Blade on the outside edge to cut a photo. Layer, and adhere to the layout.
7. Use the CCS with the #2 Oval Pattern and Red Blade on the outside edge to cut partially around the title in a variety mat. Use the Green Blade on the outside edge to cut a mat from purple paper. Layer, and adhere to the layout with Foam Squares.
8. Add a sticker with Foam Squares.


To purchase the tools and materials that I used, please see my Creative Memories website. Thank you so much for any orders!

Boho Escape Scrapbook Layout

Posted in Baby Scrapbook Layouts, Fall Scrapbook Layouts, Heritage Layouts, Scrapbook Page Layouts, Spring Scrapbook Layouts, Summer Scrapbook Layouts by

Brrrr! Freezing temperatures! Snow! Ice! It’s perfect scrapbooking weather! If you’re looking for a virtual scrapbooking activity for this weekend, you might consider joining me. I’m hosting a weekend-long event that I’m calling The World Awaits Virtual Scrapbooking Retreat.

As “The World Awaits” for the pandemic to end and get back to “normal”, grab your passport for fun and join my Virtual Scrapbooking Weekend Retreat on February 19-21! We’ll have fun with a travel themed retreat as we daydream and plan the first trips that we’ll take after the pandemic ends. The virtual retreat will feature live page classes and Scrap & Chat sessions on Zoom, challenges, door prizes, a product sale of discontinued and discounted Creative Memories products, and a few fun games. All page classes will be recorded and include instructional handouts. There is a $25 fee to participate, and you can pay with Pay Pal. Please click here to register now.

I will be using the BOHO Escape Collection from Creative Memories for my sample layouts that we’ll create during the Virtual Retreat. We’ll make 7 double-page layouts (14 pages) during the page classes. You may use any materials that you like for your layouts. In addition to the Zoom sessions, there will be a private Facebook group for the event where I’ll share recordings of the page classes and printable instructional handouts. The product sale of discontinued and discounted Creative Memories products will be a Facebook Live post to the Facebook group. And participants will share photos of their completed layouts on the private group.


During the retreat, we’ll make pretty pages like the one above. The layout above is also a good reminder about the Cardstock Buffet that Creative Memories is currently offering. On occasion, Creative Memories offers a Cardstock Buffet with exclusive limited edition cardstock colors that are not part of our product line. The current Cardstock Buffet features exclusive Shimmer Cardstock in 7 different colors. When you purchase 6 packs, you receive one pack for FREE! For more information and to order, please check out my CM website.

For my layout above, I combined the lovely Marigold Cardstock from the last Cardstock Buffet and the Boho Escape Collection. I also used the new Mandala Border Punch to create the pretty frame around the photo and the decorative corner pieces. I’ll be demonstrating this technique during my Virtual Retreat this weekend. Please see my YouTube Channel for a video demonstration of how to make this fancy inside frame.

Happy Scrapping!

Creative Life Scrapbooking Fall Blog Hop – Hello, Autumn Layout

Posted in Autumn Scrapbook Layouts, Blog Hops, Fall Scrapbook Layouts by

Hello and welcome to our Creative Life Scrapbooking Fall Blog Hop! We’re so glad that you could join us! If you’re not already a follower, please click here to Like and Follow us on Facebook.


I was inspired by the saying “Home is my Happy Place” to create my layout. This saying really speaks to me as it perfectly sums up my current feelings. My husband and I have been “socially distancing” fairly strictly during the pandemic, and we will be alone for Thanksgiving this week. But I have been so grateful for the comfort that our home has provided to us. Although I am lonely at times and miss family and friends and some of our usual activities, I am truly happy to just be home. I hope that you find the same comfort and joy in your home.

I used the lovely Hello, Autumn collection from Creative Memoires to create my layout. This collection consists of traditional autumn colors, patterns and icons mixed with a few fresh and unexpected twists. The designer paper is double-sided, and the backsides contain neutral prints that are great for those of you in climates that don’t experience a fall season. The Hello, Autumn Embellishments are especially beautiful with gold-foiled leaves.

Please note that our Creative Memories Black Friday Promo ends Friday, November 27th at noon CT or while supplies last. With a $150 purchase, you receive $86.50 in FREE exclusive items! Please see my CM website link for more info!

To create my layout:

  1.  From beige plaid paper, cut a 10” x 8” piece and a 10” x 7”.
  2. From green plaid paper, cut a 12” x 4” strip and a 12” x 2-1/2” strip.  With a pencil, make a mark at the tops of the pieces at 6”.  Using the Trimmer, make diagonal cuts from the marks to the bottom left and bottom right corners to make triangle pieces for the roofs.
  3. From wood-grained paper or Rich Brown Cardstock, use the Trimmer with Scallop Blade to cut two 12” x 3/8” strips. 
  4. From wood-grained paper or Rich Brown Cardstock, Cut a 1-3/4” x 2-1/4” piece for the chimney.
  5. From orange patterned paper, cut three photo mats that measure 6” x 4”, two mats that measure 3-1/2” x 3-1/2” and one mat that measures 3” x 3”.  If desired add Lined White Paper or White Cardstock to the smallest mat to make a journaling box.
  6. From remaining orange paper, use the Custom Cutting System with the smallest Circle Pattern and Red Blade on the outside edge to cut a partial circle to use as a moon.
  7. Use the Original Border Maker System with the Picket Fence Cartridge to punch a border from wood-grained paper or Rich Brown Cardstock.  Cut off of your paper at 2-3/16”.  Use Post-It Notes to hold the border piece in the Border Maker and punch the other side of the border.  Trim off the bottom points to make a tall fence piece.
  8. From wood-grained paper or Rich Brown Cardstock, use the Branch Border Punch to punch a border.
  9. Assemble layout as shown.  Cut apart leaf border sticker, layer with pumpkin stickers and adhere with Foam Squares.  Use the Songbirds Border Punch to punch a bird from Black Cardstock.
  10. Use White Serif, White San Serif and White Script ABC/123 Stickers to add title to the roof.

Thank you so much for visiting with us today! During this season of thanks, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you for your continued support of my virtual scrapbooking events and my Creative Memories business and also for your support of Creative Life Scrapbooking. I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving filled with the peace and comforts of home.
