Oh-lala! + new Simple issue from CK is out!

Have you heard? Creating Keepsakes has a brand new issue that hit the news-stands this week! It is called: SIMPLE SCRAPBOOKS

It is filled with more that 400 super ideas to simplify your scrapbooking process. I just know you are going to LOVE it!
By the way..fans of the former Simple magazine will notice that this special issue’s title is the same, and although there are similarities in the style of layouts and tips, this issue is more of a presentation of the concept of simple scrapbooking than revisiting the magazine Simple Scrapbooks. 

To see the similarities and differences, get a sneak peek of this issue on the CK website, and see below for an idea of the content. I created this mini album for the issue using only the following supplies:
  • Pen
  • Scissors
  • Trimmer
  • Cardstock 
  • Adhesive
  • 6x6 paper pad ( I used one from October Afternoon)


Like the title on the front & looking for a FREEBIE? Well go to the Creating Keepsakes website for some free downloads of ALL the hand drawn titles I used in the album :

NOW for the great news!!  The fab people over at Creating Keepsakes have given me one of these amazing issues to giveaway here on my blog. All you have to do is leave me a comment  by 9:00 am (MDT) Monday, April 30, telling me what you are hoping to find in this issue.
