It's Time to Scraplift!

There are just times when we need a jumping off point. We want to scrapbook or work on a project, but the mojo is just missing.

 

Well, that is the perfect time to peek at a gallery or Pinterest board for a layout that you really LOVE. Pick an element, or two, that catches your eye from it. It could be the sketch of the design that is dynamic, or maybe the color palette is dreamy, or the page uses embellishments that you have on hand, or includes a technique you'd like to try.

 

Print out the sample page you want to scraplift (or take a photo of it with your smartphone) so you have a quick reference near you and pull out your Prima scrap supplies! You will be creating a page you love in no time at all!

 

Scraplifting is a wonderful way to be inspired and get the brain in gear again. We asked our design team to scraplift one of our own. We let them pick any element they wanted from this gorgeous design by Steph Devlin:

 

Simple to Stupendous with Heidi!

Each month we love to show off two different styles with the exact same products! First we have a simple layout. It is sweet and gorgeous, but with less embellishments:

 

 

Open Friday!

 

TGIF, right?

We have had ONE busy week...but it's almost time to kick back and relax a little this week-end. Who is up for some scrapbooking inspiration?

Our Guest Designer spot is always a popular feature here on our blog. We look for some of the industry's newest and most creative talent when choosing designers for this feature. Today we want to wish a warm welcome to:

Flowers. Flowers. Everywhere!

“I must have flowers, always, and always.”
― Claude Monet

 

Even Monet needed flowers all around him! We feel the same way here at Prima. Flowers, beautiful flowers, can lift the spirit, put a smile on our face, remind us of the good things in life, and make everything better. And you know our flowers last forever...so add a few to your home decor, layouts, cards, and tags, so that you always have a few flowers around to remind you of the beautiful things about life.

 

Our designers created a few "floral-themed" projects just for you today! We hope they inspire you to add a few flowers to your next project!
