Get acquainted with the new memory-keeping system by Stampin’ Up! Doesn’t that video just make you want to get your photos together and start designing your album? However, this system isn’t just for memory-keeping, as evidenced by the name, Memories & More! This system is comprised of Card Packs that you can buy to keep handy to use on regular greeting cards, to write quick notes on, or to slip in a Pocket Page along with photos and journaling for memory-keeping. These Card Packs come with extra accessories as well, plus coordinate with other Stampin’ Up! products, so you will have plenty of supplies available to you!
Besides the Card Packs, there are also Albums, two in a 6″ x 8″ size and one in a 12″ x 12″ size. There are Variety Packs of the Photo Pocket pages plus one kind that holds a full 12″ x 12″ sheet of paper or enlarged photo.
Watch Bonnie from the Stampin’ Up! Home Office share about the Memories & More products and system.
I think these Card Packs are so fun to have on hand! If you still have little children in school (or even BIG ones!) you can use these cards to hide in their lunch box or backpack for just a sweet or encouraging note from you! Keep them within reach if you want to dash off a short note to a friend. Once you get started you probably will think of other uses as well!
Just having these Card Packs, pocket pages and albums on hand will get your creative juices flowing. Keep it as simple as you want! Simply slide photos and cards into the pockets and maybe add a bit of journaling on one card (believe me, future generations who see your albums will appreciate this!). Now if you WANT to, get really creative and have fun adding extra embellishments to some of the cards or photos, jazz it up however you like. But at least start with the simple version so you can make some progress. Then you have that done, at least, and can go back later to embellish more if you like.
If you received my Stamping With Karen Newsletter yesterday, you saw a traditional-looking scrapbook page I made with several of the cards in the Color Theory Card Pack, plus I added some stamping from the Colorful Seasons Stamp Set. (And if you aren’t on my mailing list, sign up today in the red box on the top right of my blog page so you won’t miss these new projects!)
You’ll find Memories & More products in the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog on pages 190-193.
