Packed with polka dots and posies, she added photos and journaling to finish off this great little keepsake.

Danelle’s Creative Cafe class at CHA featured creating this photo journal. We had a great group of ladies that all loved creating this easy and quick project. The new metallic papers and journaling spots seemed to be everyone’s favorite products to use! Here’s a few photos of our day…

My favorite part of these exciting new Creative Cafe dies from Accucut are the words and flowers! The sizing of the words make them wonderful to use with rub-ons, stickers or even stamps. 

Below are MORE samples, that are just a preview of two other wonderful projects we’ll showcase in the next few days! The set of flower dies includes over 8 different pieces that you can mix and match to create different flowers, stems and centers. You’ll love all the different combinations you can create!

CHA Winter 2010 is going to be an exciting show. Make sure you stay tuned for more previews of the new products… as well as a few FREE giveaways!

One of my FAVORITE new Accucut dies is the new 11 1/2″ bloom die! Look at these layouts Greta created using the new Creative Cafe foil papers from Creative Imaginations! Layer them, add chipboard and more!

The foil papers in both of these layouts are amazing…. Does a store near you have these NEW foil papers yet? If not, send them to this link! All foil papers are shipping now, and even more impressive in person.

Linda created two more layouts also using this versatile die We were thinking there are probably some great home decor ideas that we could use this die for too! Placemats, hanging art, etc… Stay tuned, more great previews coming!

Thanksgiving is just a few days away, and we love these new ideas for your table setting from Roree! Placemats and name tags for seating are great ideas to spruce up any table. 

We also loved this new set of Fall cards… oranges, browns and rustic rich colors are sure to brighten the day of any friend or relative. Do you have some creative projects planned for fall? Are you still journaling and finding new ways to remember your special moments?

Fall is here, Halloween is this weekend, and it’s the perfect time to get all those photos of oranges, reds and browns! We loved this chipboard book using Creative Cafe transparencies, Accucut dies and glitter paper. 

From the pumpkin patch, to fall colors, this the perfect time of year for great photos. What are taking photos of this weekend? Your ghosts and goblins, trick or treating? Let us know, we’d love to hear!
