Simple Scrapbook Page

I made this page with photos of our first trip to Disneyland last year during the CTMH Convention.  This is retired paper that I have been saving for Disneyland photos for years.  Finally was able to use it.  I wanted to show you that Scrapbooking can be simple.  There are not any embellishments on this page I did stamp a title and used my writing for the story. 

I hear so many times "I do not have time to scrapbook"  You really have to make time to do this wonderful hobby that will give you memories forever.  Do you ever look in your boxes of photos or on your computer at the old photos you have and say remember this, remember that?  What if you had them in an album and could do the same thing but in some better order and with colorful papers and it would tell a story!

You can make your pages as elaborate as you want or as simple as you want!

Join me at one of my workshops and make your first Scrapbook Page and see how fun it can be to preserve your memories!


Studio J Online Scrapbooking

Studio J is great for anyone who wants to scrapbook but just doenst have the time or doesnt want to purchase all the supplies.

Its FREE to try, why not try it.

Studio J® is free online scrapbooking design software brought to you by Close To My Heart. Studio J helps you easily create two-page layouts using our foundational scrapbook patterns, exclusive color palette, and themed designs all delivered in 12" × 12" custom prints ready for your albums.

Timeless patterns and artistically placed default accents allow you to finish a page in minutes, while customization options give you the flexibility to make your layouts unique.

Feel free to design to your heart’s content—you are not required to buy anything or provide any personal information to get started! To purchase or save layouts, however, you will need to create an online account

For your protection, your account cannot be accessed at the same time by two different machines, nor can two separate accounts be open on the same computer at the same time. Since creating a Studio J account is free of charge, all users may create their own accounts so each can create in Studio J at his or her convenience.

You can create a customer account that allows you to save and return to a project in progress at a later time. Your active projects will be saved for up to 90 days, giving you plenty of time to work on them. You extend that timeline for your active projects by 90 days each time you make a purchase, and your purchased projects will remain archived for one full year after purchase. We’ll email you when your active projects are set to expire so you can be sure to purchase them before they are deleted. You can upgrade the storage time of your active projects by becoming a Studio J member

Studio J offers a range of purchasing options to fit your needs. Become a Studio J member to get our best pricing and tons of exclusive perks, purchase a 5-pack to try out Studio J for the first time and receive great savings, or order custom prints a la carte at full retail price.

Your Studio J layouts are not available for you to print from a home computer unless you decide to become a Studio J member. In fact, we take care of the printing for you.
