I am not a journalist, I have no background in media, I am just a girl who likes to scrapbook and wants to share my love of it with like minded people so I was delighted at the response to the first issue and all your positive comments, I cannot thank you enough for the support I have received.

This issue is a little light on written articles and I do apologise for that, but this is a learning curve for me so I am trying to find the right balance of content. That said the most important part of the magazine for me is the inspiration that you can get from the layouts. I do hope you enjoy this issue and please make sure you visit our website to join in our two monthly challenges (a colour and sketch challenge), meet featured designers from around the world and to find out how to submit work for the next issue.

EDITORS LETTER

When I started Life.Paper.Scrapbook. the idea in my head was to share Australian scrapbooking and designers with the world but that isn’t what happened, quite the opposite in fact. The world decided to come to me and this issue really is testament to that with contributing designers from not only Australia, USA and Canada but also Brazil, Israel, Singapore, Japan, Russia, Sweden, Norway, Greece, Germany and Spain just to name a few. My tiny little magazine has become a sort of United Nations of Scrapbooking and I couldn’t be happier.

My Love Mini Album Alexandra Polizou

Love THIS

Greece

We adore mini accordion albums! They are fun to make and you can add in lots of embellishments and layers like this beautiful one by Alexandra.

PRODUCTS We Love

Cork Stickers

Atlantic Collection - Studio Calico One of the most popular mid-season released was Studio Calico’s Atlantic collection from it’s geometric papers to it’s fun nautical embellishments, it was a winner. Becki loves the cork sticker embellishments they come in cute circles (pictured right) and also in arrows and chevrons and add a great natural touch to your layouts and cards.

Slide Frames

The Pier Collection - Crate Paper

What’s not to love with these gorgeous chip board slide frames? The retro chic colours, the variety of sizes and you get 27(!!!) in a pack.

Treasure Thickers

Lucky Charm Collection - Dear Lizzy (American Crafts) The whole Lucky Charm collection is beautiful but these pretty thickers are a stand out for Leanne “They have a nice compact size for title work on 8.5in x 11in LOs. Plus they’re covered in glitter - what more could a die-hard crafter ask for!” They come in Poppy (pictured right), Vanilla and Spearmint.

Cameron 3” Circles Elle’s Studio

Danielle loves these cute tags from Elle’s studio “They have cute prints and I love how you can tuck them in between layers and give a nice fun detail to every project.” Elle’s have a fantastic range of tags for layering and each collection has a variety of shapes and size.

Seasons Mini Kit

Becky Higgins Project Life

There are so many beautiful new kits from BH that it is hard to choose but Michelle’s favourite at the moment is the fun Seasons Mini Kit “The cards are so bright an cheery and so versatile for use in any project”

Key Lime Collection Bo Bunny

Bo Bunny’s mid season release really packs a punch with it’s bold and bright summer colour palette. Marielle found it the perfect collection to make a summer mini album.

Amy TANGERINE Amy Tangerine may be the busiest woman in scrapbooking. Between designing her own lines, working on design teams for Studio Calico and Two Peas In A Bucket and jet setting around the world to offer classes and inspiration it is a wonder she has time to stop and relax, but if it stresses her out she doesn’t show it at all.

This is the second time I have met Amy and when she sees me, she welcomes me like I am a long lost friend.

To be honest I am not sure if she remembers me from the time we met at a make and take a year ago, from my online picture or if she is just one of those people who are genuinely likes meeting people but it really doesn’t matter because she is so welcoming and friendly you feel like you only saw her yesterday or that she is one of your closest friends.

Amy’s original love was fashion, a passion she had followed since a young age when she would “wallpaper her bedroom walls with the colorful and glamorous pages of fashion magazines” but a spur of the moment visit to a LSS changed all of that. “I walked into a scrapbooking store 2007 and they were giving a workshop the next day so my cousin and I signed up for it” The class was taught by Australian designer Emily Falconbridge who was teaching a workshop on making a mini album out of a deck of cards. “We had a lot of fun and I completely fell in love with her, all the products and just the idea of scrapbooking in general. So then my love affair turned from fashion to paper and it switched pretty quickly.”

22

Life. Paper. Scrapbook.

This July she will be releasing her 5th line in collaboration with American Crafts at Winter CHA in Las Vegas so I try to get her to spill the beans but she keeps her cards close to her chest “With my first collection, because American Crafts didn’t know if I would have additional ones, they said please give us all your good ideas, so I had everything from a coat hanger, camera, feathers, a typewriter and a plane, so I’ve kind of used up all my good ideas...just kidding. I have a staple in my line every time, which is a camera, and I don’t think that will go out of style.”

There’s no doubt she is well loved in the industry and whenever she comes to Australia we give her a bit of a rockstar welcome because we don’t get a lot of scrapbook “celebrities” down here and, well because she’s awesome. She is always happy to answer any questions about her line, tips, techniques or just life in general and willing to sign daybooks, layouts, cards and have her picture taken with people for their Project Life album. I can’t help but ask her what she thinks of her fame. “It’s funny because when I first started scrapbooking, you get friends involved and your friends introduce you to techniques, brands and people in the industry that you look up to. I was very fortunate to meet Heidi Swapp, Teresa Collins and pretty much right away I felt an immediate connection to them and then later on I met Becky Higgins. I just think it is so awesome that people are viewed as celebrities in this industry but really I don’t feel any different.

I am so glad that people can look up to me or look to me to inspire them.”

Amy’s must have craft supply?

I always carry adhesive with me, it sounds like such a silly thing but it’s like one of those tools I can not live without, because I will find myself on an aeroplane wanting to cut something out of a magazine or tear something out and stick it somewhere.

Life. Paper. Scrapbook.

The subject of Project Life comes up and I ask her if she thinks it is making scrapbooking more popular and accessible to people. “Absolutely, I feel like it takes the pressure off a little bit and I think the main thing is to just document your memories and if it is another way of doing it I think it’s excellent. I think most people should just focus on sitting down, having some creative time and getting their memories documented. Don’t worry what everyone else is doing or how they are doing it. If you can’t get to it weekly there is no pressure, you know I think that’s the main thing to keep in mind.”

At this point I have to admit that I have only done three weeks or so this year and what is her advice for me and other people in the same boat. “That’s OK, thats alright. I don’t feel the pressure to go back, last year I only did it for six months but I don’t feel any desire to go back and do the second half of the year. I just feel like you can pick up where you leave off and no one is going to care years from now if you used a certain embellishments or whether the photo was from that exact week or a different week, it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things.”

Sadly our time to chat comes to an end too soon, but before she goes I ask about her next big project - a baby due on September 15. “Everybody is excited, the first grandchild on both sides so I imagine he will be a little spoilt... he’s a little spoilt already.” And you just know she will be a great mum.

Amy on travel...

I think it’s a great way to feel inspired and see the world, really just because I enjoy doing it, I feel an obligation to do it and also to share it with other people whether it’s blogging or instagram or any device I can share it on I’m happy to do that because not everyone can do it.

Everything about this layout says summer (and a very welcome vibe in the LPS office during the southern winter!) Lisa tells us a bit about her process “I wanted to give this page a dreamy feel, and the addition of mists and chalk inks in coordinating colors helped me achieve that feel. A sprinkling of sequins and enamel dots amped up the fun!�

“This is my favourite layout so far. I went crazy on using sprays, paint, masks etc. I used paper only for adding some arrows and adding a dimension in the layout. It is so easy and so much fun to make your own background” says Janine, she likes to use black and white photos to match the colours “Since when I start on the layout I don’t really know what the end result will be”

This June, July and August Kristin Tweedale of RuKristin Papercrafts is offering a free eight week storytelling workshop on her blog.

“This workshop is about finding your storytelling voice.

You are an awesome person with amazing stories, so this summer we’re going to work together to find the most genuine and authentic way for you to tell those stories.

This workshop is for everyone! You definitely don’t need to be a scrapbooker or paper-crafter to play along. We’ll be telling stories through pictures, photographs, social media, prose, and more. The only thing you need is a willingness to become the author of your own story and the courage to step outside of your comfort zone.”

Kristin will be joined by some awesome ladies including our own Ruth Bonser as well as Jessica Bree, Emily Dismukes, Molly Porter, Emily Hathcock, Lisa Wilkinson, Veronica Milan, Michelle Wear, Jen Ritchie, Allie, Margrethe Aas Johnsen and many more.

Each week’s lesson will include thoughts on several topics pertaining to the theme of the week, a coordinating worksheet, and several creative prompts.

There will be inspiration from contributing team members in each week’s pdf as well more inspiration as in a follow up blog post each Wednesday. This is a free class, so it will not cost you anything to participate.

Life. Paper. Scrapbook.

There is no formal sign-up for the workshop. Lessons will be available on the blog for anyone to download until August 31st. Lessons will also be made available in the Find Your Voice facebook group and via email each week to those who opt-in.

For more information and to join in visit Kristin’s website: www.rukristin.com/findyourvoice About Kristin: I'm Kristin and a I'm a millennial scrapbooker who loves graphic design, social justice, my iPhone, and Jeffrey (my person). I just released a brand new minialbum technique workshop called: Fold It In. I'm 27 years old, living right outside of NYC in Northern NJ. I love Project Life, Journaling, taking photos with my iPhone, and sharing on social media (I love internet friends). I love telling my story and inspiring others to do the same.

We loved the use of pattered paper to highlight the intricate die-cut. Don’t be afraid to mix up your bright and bold papers, the easiest way to do this is to use a collection pack like the Echo Park Here & Now collection Allie has used.

One of the benefits of a die cut machine is that you can custom cut titles like the quote Margrethe has used here.

Placing different pattern papers underneath gives the title work a unique twist and is also a great way to use up scraps. If you don’t have a die cut machine you could achieve this effect using different sets of letter stickers.

Rather than using cardstock of a patterned paper as a background Kimberly has used an extra large photo and the result is stunning. She has used vellum to cover the darker side of the photo and draw the focus back to the important part of the photo. “This my daughter and our dog from about 10 years ago. He passed a way a year ago but he was a very beloved pet and I wanted to capture that. I chose the colors and crumpled the vellum to give it more a vintage/warn look, to make it more cozy and loved.�

Life. Paper. Scrapbook.

Paper straws have been popping up in kits and paper stores online and they can be a tricky item to use but Margareta has some great tips. “I used it as a bar on the page, hanging heart shapes in baker’s twine. You can also use small journaling tags or stamped shapes. I used small glue dots to adhere the paper straw to the page. Alternatively, you could flatten the ends and stitch it to the background”

Max is super cute in his little bed! Jennifer has softened the edges of the photo by using doilies inked in a similar colour and placed them in a way that looks like a continuation of the bed blurring the lines between where the photo ends and the layering starts.

Never be afraid to get creative if you don’t have the exact right embellishment. Michelle made her own for this layout “I made my own epoxy stickers by circle punching cardstock, patterned paper and then adding some Glossy Accents.” So easy and it is a fantastic individual touch.

project life is a back to basics approach to

memory-keeping

www.projectlife.com.au www.crafthouse.co.nz 80

Life. Paper. Scrapbook.

Project LIFE Project Life is an approach to scrapbooking that was created to simplify the process in order to allow you more time to enjoy life! It requires no glue, no scissors, no tools, and no skills of any kind. The design of our products takes the guess work out of layout design so that you can focus on recording your everyday moments through your photos and journaling. The simple design is stylish and makes it possible for you to complete more pages in less time.

Core Kit - Midnight Edition

Craft House has had an association with Project Life since it was first released in 2009 - and which came from a friendship with Becky Higgins, the creator of the Project Life concept and product range, that dates back to early 2004 when we invited her and her husband David to visit this part of the world.

Becky shared her inspiration and passion with many across New Zealand and Australia back then - and invited Craft House to be a part of Project Life as they were developing the product and wanted to make sure those “down-under” were a part of it too!

Mini Kit - Childhood, Mayfield

Craft House is still as committed to Becky and Project Life as it was back then - and we continue to stock the entire product range, including the original (exclusive) designs, in support of the many thousands of “Project Life’rs” we have assisted over the years - and who enjoy this amazing product across Australia and New Zealand.
