Crate Paper BFF & Dating Lines

Boy do I have some cute pics for these papers!!! I don't know about you, but I think I have the BEST friends ever, I know you will probably argue that your friends are best (LOL) but really, this is my story & i'm sticking to it!!! I am so blessed!!!! When your friends become your family, there is just nothin' better!!!! I couldn't survive without my FRIENDS and my FAMILY.

If you're like us, for many years, we never had pictures of the wonderful memories we were making with friends. Thank goodness for scrapbooking, because that made us realize that we weren't taking pictures of some of the most special times in our lives-no it wasn't a birthday or a special event, it was just everyday FUN times with our friends! One of my favorites is a picture of "us girls just talking on the porch" and of course, you have to have a "posed" pic too. SO be sure to take some pics to preserve these wonderful memories and check out these paper lines to scrapbook them.

A Recipe for Cookin' Up a Cool - Crazy 4 MUSIC

Crazy 4 MUSIC


Here is the layout created from the RECIPE sketch in the newsletter. I chose the Glitz papers with music notes to compliment the activity in my photos. As you can see, it doesn't take many ingredients to create this quick layout!!!! SOOO print those photos, check your stash, compliment with anything found at MM and VOILA, cool layout. I think this was Justin's favorite layout of the 15+ I created AND it only took 20 minutes.

Products I used: Jenni Bowlin tiny letters (on new wall), the anchor/brads (sale wall), big brads (bulk in bins) and Glitz papers & stickers and ribbon.

If you're CRAZY 4 (sketch) recipes like we are, Check out the MM Masterpieces book at Memory Mania!!!

P.S. Have you signed up for CCL yet???? Don't miss this awesome weekend of scrappin', chattin' and laughin!!!!! I ALWAYS come home with loads of ideas from other scrappers.

GET SPOTTED . . . We have MM car decal clings for you to put on your car and if we SPOT you around town we will post on the blog so you can confirm & pick up your prize!!!!

This is going to be fun-we're trying to spread the word of SCRAPBOOKING!!!!
Here’s how it works…Place the decal on your vehicle in a visible spot. If a Memory Mania employee spots you around town (on the road, in the mall parking lot, in traffic, in line at a drive-thru, wherever!), they will make a note of your car – license plate, model, color, and the location where you were spotted.

You should check the blog weekly to see a description of the vehicle we spotted that week (if there are several spotted in one week, we will put them into a drawing and pick one). If the vehicle we describe is yours, email us at tammy@eatel.net to let us know it was you, and you win a the weekly GET SPOTTED prize!!

Get your decal… Get out there… and GET SPOTTED!!!
