Spring Is Here!

Spring is officially here. Nothing beats the slow rise in temperature and the melting of snow, if there is any left. The sure sign that spring is here are the sights and sounds of birds chirping. Speaking of birds, how about the March 2009 MemoryWorks Express Scrapbook Kit. Isn’t it awesome?! The kit is loaded with awesome papers and embellishments from My Mind’s Eye, Basic Grey, We R Memory Keepers, and more. The patterns and colors just pop and come to life as nature comes to life after a long winter. For those of you who were able to get this kit and are now wondering “What can I do with this kit, what can I make?” Have no fear; the TeamWorks Members are here, to help inspire you to create something wonderful from this kit. The team members are a group of talented ladies who shine with creativity and business sense. Their work can be viewed in the Idea Gallery on the MemoryWorks website under “Inspiration.”

At the beginning of each month, a few team members have been chosen to let their creativity shine with the new kit. And throughout the month, other team members and consultants add their handy work to the Idea Gallery as well. So for this month, I have chosen to highlight a project from 3 of the team members. It was a hard task of narrowing it down to one project per person because these ladies have done an awesome job on all of their projects.

First team member project is from Sarah. Sarah’s layout “In the Fall Leaves” is just darling. The photos are adorable and the way she used different items from the kit. Sarah even cut apart two papers to create accents on the page. There are other awesome projects by Sarah in the gallery as well, one of which is a “Celebration Notebook.”

Next team member is Tammi B. Tammi’s “Hey Chick Card” is so cute. From the colors that she has chosen to the way she used the clear stamp that comes with the kit. I love that chick stamp, it is cute. Tammi also has some other awesome projects in the gallery as well. I love the “Bird Watching” layout with the cat.

And lastly, we have Alison’s handy work. Alison did an “out of the box” project by making frame magnets from the kit. These are adorable. She used from the kit, the 6X6 Raw Chipboard Flowers & Circle Shapes by Scenic Route. (These shapes are still available on sale in the “Spring Cleaning Sale” on the MemoryWorks website under “Shop Our Products.”) Alison used paper from the kit to cover the shapes. She added adorable photos and other embellishments. Alison also has some other awesome projects in the gallery as well, one of which is “Happy” layout.
