I had said that I wasn’t going to do a video before the new year – but I just couldn’t resist! 🙂 I missed my scrap room too much! 🙂
I made this really sweet little page right in front of your eyes using:
- Collage Press – Joyride Collection
- Soda Bottle Caps
- Zip Dry Paper Glue and the ATG
- Ribbon
- Prima Flowers layered with a bronze brad
- Thickers from American Crafts (these are a really cool textured like vinyl, just awesome!)
- …and that’s about it 🙂 A no Cricut Required scrapbook layout for some winter fun 🙂
Let me know what you think and comment away, can’t wait to show some more layouts in the near future 🙂
See you soon!
Great layout!
Love the peach-pink paper!
I have got to get over my fear of pre-making layouts. I think it would save me time and be lots of fun! I just keep thinking, “BUT I MIGHT WANT AN EXTRA PHOTO (or ten) on there!” LOL!
Rhonda, I SO know the feeling and i usually try to make the “pre-mades” very expandable – see by making the mattings 6×6, I can actually put two pictures cut down on each of the mattings, OR I can put one on each or two on one, etc….
so if you can learn to think outside of the “boxes” that you make…it’s really a lot of fun and does save time.
BUT I still love starting from my pictures and building my pages around them – that is my preference overall 😉
Super cute layout! I have been itching to get out the scrap stuff and playing but decided to wait until the house has settled down some.
First on the list is to watch my AtoZ dvd
LOOOOVVVVVEEEEE IT!!!!!! That was super cute. I love your scrapbook pages. They inspire me so much. It’s 11:45 pm here and I want to go scrap so bad now LOL!! I truely love this page. Good job.
Nice layout. It is great that you can think on your feet. Have a Happy New Year.
I agree I have a very hard time doing the premade but it makes sense to do the mat in 6X6. I’ve also found that now that I have my Cricut I tend to try to design my pages with that in mind. I forget that I’ve scrapped for 15 years without it!! LOL Cute layout.
Cute Megan. Happy Day!! lol. Thanks for sharing. Wanted you to no I got your dvd for xmas and WOW!! You cover so much on it! I took notes, but hey Im sure when Im in need,I’ll be pulling it out again. Love it and really feel like I got more than my moneys worth. Thank you!
Thank you so much Cindy! It’s encouraging to hear and just makes me want to even do better the next go around! (Which honestly I think it will be better) But I am so glad you got alot out of it!
Have a great Tuesday everyone!
I really In joy your videos.Expecially the Cricuts
Thank you
Sandy
Megan love your page, and I really like the paper… I got your DVD and have only seen a little of it…DH is home on vacation and I don’t think he wants to watch it with me.. (I dont know why???)LOL
What a great layout! Quick and easy in 10 minutes. Great for someone who doesn’t have a lot of time to plan pages. I love it!
cute page, i have a question, since you taped on the ribbion to the back page, do you use the the other side or do you do another page and tape the two together? thank you.
I agree with Rhonda H. I am trying to learn to premake layouts, but I really prefer to build around my pictures. Problem being, I need to develop more pictures… 🙂 Love the ribbon idea, that will save alot of my Xyron tape!!! Happy New Year!!
I almost always build my pages around my pictures, but I love your idea of the two 6×6 pieces. Very versatile and super CUTE!! I can just picture your DH’s face when he caught you scrapbooking with his hammer! lol.

Megan, you are such an inspiration for me. Your comment about things not having to be perfect was directed at me. I talk myself out of more than I get done. Thank you.
I have tried using the Zip Dry glue but have had major problems with the nozzle clogging up. Am I do something wrong?- I do replace the cap after use.
Loved the pre-made page and the paper is beautiful
Megan, I have a question, I ordered your DVD(Love it) from the first order time, you said that it included a membership for ? Sorry I can’t remember, anyway I’m just wondering what it was and when it begins. Thanks
Happy New Year Donna
I really like the premade layouts. I do them all the time and find they are such a time saver. Thanks for sharing.
Totally Cute!
Love the idea of using the bottle caps, I have a tin full of them but haven’t really used them. Thanks for the tip. HAPPY NEW YEAR Hope to see you at CHA Next year..;)
I must find that paper! Ilove it! TFS!~
great layout. I have been so busy with Christmas and making cards that my scrapbooks are suffering and you made me want to get back to them. Loved the paper too, soooo cute.
Can you find a use for poptops?! LOL Seriously,I enjoyed your A to Z video and really learned a lot from it. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us.
Your videos are so inspirational and I look forward everyday to seeing and learning more about this new hobby I’ve acquired. Your’re a great teacher and you make everthing soooo interesting. Thank you so much!!!
very cute paper and simple but elegant layout
Did you know you can flatten the pop bottle caps with a Sizzix or with a Spellbinder? I haven’t done it with the Spellbinder, but I did see it on Youtube, I have used the Sizzix though. Don’t know if it would work with a Cuttlebug.
