Keep Your Friends Close and Your Memories Closer

This week, try putting aside time to preserve your memories with some beautiful scrapbook pages. We had fun preserving memories and friendships with the Heart & Home Memories & More Card Pack—and we are so excited to see what projects you create!

For our scrapbook pages, we kept everything simple and didn’t do any stamping—sometimes less is more, and we loved the way it turned out! We arranged the cards into their own pockets and added a few stickers. We then used the Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker to write a few words and popped up the bees with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

For the card, we colored the floral arrangement by squeezing drops of ink from ink refills into a stamp pad lid and using a Water Painter to color the image. We used Calypso Coral, Fresh Freesia, Old Olive, and So Saffron, and we loved the different hues of color we were able to create with the water. We finished the card with a simple embossed sentiment and a few embellishments, including some 2021–2023 In Color Jewels to coordinate with the colors in the floral image.

Let us know what memories you were able to preserve through crafting!
