1000 Pages To Scrapbook Before You Die.

Have you ever seen the book 1000 PLACES TO SEE BEFORE YOU DIE?  It’s a seriously fun book and reinvents the travel guide with a new lens.  As we introduce two of our newest themed lines this week, HAPPY EASTER & THE GRADUATE, we thought we’d carry the concept over to scrapbook pages,  with your help of course.  Check out our all new 1950’s retro HAPPY EASTER collection and our perennially popular Graduation and Prom collection, then jump over to our Facebook page and share your own inspirational ideas/themes/titles.   We’ll pick two random winners to receive both HAPPY EASTER and THE GRADUATE.  

The page ideas/inspirations/titles can literally be about anything.  Here’s a couple of ideas to get things started

PAGE INSPIRATIONS/TITLES

Secret Desires-Tell about one desire/dream you’ve always had.

Mirror Mirror on the Wall—Highlight the inner and outer beauty of one of your kids.

Winter Heat Wave-With the warmest winter on the books it shouldn’t be hard to find some pictures of the kids frolicking outside this “winter”.

Transformation-  Share an inspirational or transformational story that has occurred in your life.

Top Ten-  From Bucket Lists to vacations to funny things your kid says, a TOP 10 page is a great way to share your familys personality.

My Mission, My Passion, My Hobby---Share your life’s passion.  Whether it’s family, travel, volunteering, animals, or sports.  Step up and share what you love to do.

 

There you go, that’s 6 ideas…just 994 more to go….now it’s your turn.  Visit our Facebook Page and give us your inspirational ideas for a scrapbooking page.  Two lucky winners will be chosen to receive our brand new Easter and Graduation Collections!!

Letters to SANTA....Reminisce makes it EASY!

Hello blog readers! Welcome to Friday's post...today it's about letters to santa! Did you notice the specialty papers in the Dear Santa collection? One side is a stylized Dear Santa letter, complete with lines and the other side is an addressable envelope.

 

 

Angela used this paper to document her children's wish lists for 2011...

She plans to scan her son's letter before posting it, to have a permanant (and scrapable!) memory of this years most desired toys!

Hope you enjoyed the holiday focussed week here on the Reminisce blog! Thanks for joining us!

The Reason for the Season...

Today, DT member Cindy Noesen shares a layout featuring her REASON for the SEASON....her FAMILY!

The traditional color scheme of A Christmas Story works so well here! Thanks for sharing today Cindy!

Check back tomorrow for another holiday project!

Cookie Cutter Ornaments...featuring Dear Santa...

Today, DT member Angela Ploegman is sharing her version of the popular Cookie Cutter Ornaments. These aluminum cookie cutters (some were nesting types) were altered with the vintage images from the Dear Santa collection.

These ornaments are very easy to assemble...

1. Coat the edges of the cookie cutter with a super tacky wet glue and lay over the desired image. Let dry.

2. Trim the excess paper with some non stick scissors.

3. Embellish with punched snowflakes, gems and sticker strips from the collection.

4. Punch a hole from the backside of the ornament. String ribbon and tie.

Here are some other examples...the ones made with two nesting dies have a neat kaleidoscope effect that the photographs can't really capture.

Thanks for sharing today Angela! Check back tomorrow for another day of Christmas paper creations courtesy of Reminisce!

Tags, Bags and TUBES {fabulous crafty ways to give gifts!}

Today, DT member Shelly Maxwell is sharing some terrific tags, bags and tubes that she's altered with the A Christmas Story collection...

Who wouldn't LOVE a gift personalized with these handmade details? Here are some detail pictures:

Love that altered gift bag! Simple, fast and EASY to do-and it adds SO much!

Thanks for sharing today Shelly!

On the first day of Christmas, Santa gave me....

Dear Santa and A Christmas Story WEEK on the blog! Welcome blog readers...if you missed the 'teaser' post last week, which was a fabulous video tutorial for a Paper Christmas Tree, check it out HERE.

Today, DT member Tami Sanders is sharing a tutorial for this fabulous Door Hanger using BOTH the Dear Santa and A Christmas Story collections-she needed to make one of these to ensure she could wrap the Christmas presents without interuptions!

1. Starting with a plain wood door hanger, adhere the papers and stickers. Use a file to remove the excess paper and ink the edges.

2. Adhere the Santa to a piece of cardstock and cuto out. Add some glitter to the Santa's hat and cuffs.

3.Cover a wood tag with patterned paper. Stamp the "stay out" phrase and hand write the remaining words on kraft paper in red pen. Distress the edges with ink.

4. Embellish with baker's twine, more glitter and jingle bells and YOU'RE DONE!

Here are some close up pictures of the project details:

Thanks for sharing today Tami! Check back tomorrow for another fabulous Holiday project!

Batter Up! It's baseball in November!

Today's post highlights one of the themes from the Signature Series 3D line...BASEBALL!

DT member, Robin Gibson used the 3D silhouettes, the stars and the BASEBALL sticker from the release and combined them with the Signature Series Baseball paper to create a fabulous scrapbook layout for a friend's son:

Love how all the dimensional stickers add to the page theme here! And how Robin left some 'white space' on the baseball element to allow for her friend to personalize the page with her own journalling!

Thanks for sharing today Robin!

Holiday Harvest Wreath

A Reminisce friend created this WONDERFUL Fall Harvest Wreath using the Harvest collection. Cheryl Moores sent in some photos of her creation that proudly hangs from her front door!

Love all the accordian fold paper rossettes that form the base of this project...ADORABLE!

Thanks Cheryl for sharing your project with us! Happy Thanksgiving to all!

A FANTASTIC fall banner...

This fabulous fall banner was created by Design Team member Tami Sanders. She chose the beautiful HARVEST collection for this creation.

Love how each piece combines more than one of the fabulous patterened papers in the collection and the paper seams are hidden by the Harvest border stickers!

Here's a close up of one of the banner pieces:

Some ColorBox chestnut roan ink on the edges of the leaves adds to the distressed look and the raffia bows and jute ties finish off the banner perfectly!

Thanks for sharing Tami!

Thanksgiving placecard TUTORIAL...

Today's blog post features a tutorial for handmade Thanksgiving placecards from design team member Lynne Forsythe. She first pulled out some of the BEAUTIFUL Harvest Collection papers, Autumn Harvest and Fall Harvest, and then let the creating begin!

Here are the step by step instructions:

1. Cut cardboard 4" x 6" and scored them at 3".  Fold the cardboard in half,

paint with Gesso and then ink with Rusty Hinge Distress Ink.

2. Diecut two flowers and a circle for each place card out of Autumn Harvest, run them through an embossing folder.

3. Sand the high spots.

4. Spritz the die cut flowers and a paper flower with Perfect Pearls Mist and dry them.

5. Assemble the place cards as shown.

The matching Harvest border stickers were a perfect addition to the place cards.

Don't you think these will be the perfect additions to a Holiday Table?

Thanks so much for sharing this project Lynne!
