I love to buy new Creative Memories products and have a big order on the way. There is a gorgeous new coverset and a great Mother's Day promotion I couldn't resist. The Better Together bundle includes both a 12x12 and an 8x8 set of albums from the Sorbet collection. It comes with the pre-designed pages in both, embellishments, a tape runner, and a pen. I love the 8x8s so getting one 'free' is amazing!
I also enjoy using up what I have and in the past year I have really hit the scrapbooking stash hard. I've been quite pleased with the layouts created just using old supplies and making them work. I just did this page with two simple photos of my dog's first trip to the self-wash centre at the pet food store. That was a great experience - beautiful, gated wash station and all the towels and supplies you need. It is so much easier, less back-breaking, and no wet, doggy-smelling towels to deal with! Anyway, Sam did really well and although he's a Lab, water is not his favourite thing. He looked pretty cute and smelled way better after a long winter!
The layout just came together! I found old bubble stickers, layered some retired designer paper, and used a die-cut from the Disney Cricut cartridge I'd made years before. It just fit perfectly! My method is to keep building and layering on the page until I like what I see...
