Thursday's New Items 01-15-2015

Welcome to Thursday's New Items for January 15, 2015! This week we have lots of new goodies! Today we released our Just Because Living Life collection and tons of add ons. We have released a few other new items including alphabet stickers, foam dots, debossing folders, label stickers, and journaling cards.

We have gotten our hands on Pelican Shoreline Remarks alphabet stickers from American Crafts. There are two sheets of stickers. One sheet is orange and one sheet is blue. There are 608 letter, number, and punctuation mark stickers. 

We all love and need pop dots. They give our projects much needed depth. What we don't always like is that sometimes you can see the white or black from the pop dots. Well, Kool Tak has resolved this issue! Kool Tak has released clear foam squares. They are 1/4" x 1/4" and 1/32" thick. Kool Tak is Made in Germany. 

Inky absolutely loves Tim Holtz and many of his products. She can't get enough of the Debossing Folders. This week we have added the Family and Friends Set. There are 6 Debossing Folders. The folders are 6 3/4" long by 1 1/2" wide. The words in the Family and Friends Set are happiness, together, grateful, friend, forever, and smile.

We had a little fun choosing label stickers this week. We have added 6 label sticker sheets from My Mind's Eye. 

We have chosen 2 label stickers from the Cut & Paste collection. We selected Charm "Carefree" and Fresh "Right Now". Both stickers were Made in the USA.

Now and Then has 2 label stickers. Izzy "Boys" and Mildred "Girls" were chosen. Both were Made in the USA. 

We also chose 2 label stickers from the Collectable collection. Memo "Notable" and Story "Unforgettable" are now in stock.

And finally, we have 2 new journaling card collections this week. First up is Archived which is a collaboration of Teresa Collins and We R Memory Keepers. WRMK has a line dedicated to pocket scrapbookers (Project Lifers - that's you!) called Albums Made Easy. Archived contains 100 cards including 80 3"x4" and 20 4"x6" cards, die cut cards, and photo overlays. There's red glitter, too! 

The second collection we are introducing this week is Sn@p Insta Squares Cozy Christmas from Simple Stories. Insta Squares are perfect for Instagram lovers! The cards can also be used as embellishments when making your own journaling cards. If you have pocket page protectors with 3"x3" or 4"x4" pockets here ya go!  There are 52 cards in 3 sizes. You will receive 24 2"x2", 16 3"x3", and 12 4"x4".

Bs sure to check out the Just Because Living Life collection Inky Hot Mess released today! There are literally dozens of new products in the Add Ons that coordinate with Just Because! See you next Thursday with new and exciting products. Happy scrapping!

Pocket Scrapbooking

There are so many companies that have jumped on the pocket scrapbooking party train. Most make pocket page protectors and journaling cards (filler cards fall into the same overall category). Here are the companies that I have stumbled across that make all these goodies:

Project Life/Becky Higgins

Studio Calico

American Crafts

We R Memory Keepers

Teresa Collins

Close To My Heart

Kaisercraft

Papertrey Ink (brand new this month!)

Echo Park

My Mind's Eye

Simple Stories (their entire philosophy is simple scrapbooking)

Crate Paper

Now there are also companies who make 12x12 papers that have journaling cards on them. You simply cut them up yourself. 

About that mountain of 12x12 patterned papers and cardstock sitting in my studio? Yeah, about them. I'm slowly working my way through them and cutting most of them into 4x6 journaling cards/filler cards. Yup, even the cardstock. Why? Perfect for using some of my stamps and stickers/chipboard pieces on to make my own cards! 

I have started my first album. It's a week long vacation in the Smoky Mountains. Over 600 photos and they ALL fit into one - yup one - album! I used a mix of Project Life, My Mind's Eye, We R Memory Keepers, and Kaisercraft journaling cards along with the ones I cut up myself. 

Here's the fun part. Journaling. I hate it. I stink at it. But guess what. Doing pocket scrapbooking is making me journal! I've even Googled places we went for historic details. Crazy I know! 

Oh and the best part. I spent less than 12 hours on this album. Normally, I could spend two entire weekends doing traditional scrapbooking to get that many photos done. I also still would have to do all of my embellishing. And there's no way this would all fit into one album....probably not even two. So I saved a ton of time and shelf space.

I'll have photos of these projects soon! I want to finish my album before I post pics. But stay tuned!  

One last thing about pocket scrapbooking. I also collect postcards from all of my trips and travels. I’ve been looking for a few years for something to organize my collection in. I haven’t had any luck except for plastic envelopes and those were ugly. There are pocket pages that hold 12 postcards! There are page protectors that will hold 12 horizontal or vertical. Thank you We R Memory Keepers! I have been able to give hundreds of postcards a lovely home finally!
