The Showroom 

Michelle Boeckermann

Each month, our pit crew is given a product to play with, review and create with. What inspires each of us varies month to month. The muted, simple yet elegant design of these papers brought out a more masculine feel to our creations. Some of us continued with the travel theme, while others were led to do moments. All ended up with beautiful items that we are proud to showcase for you this month.

 

Journaling: Life with you is one, big ADVENTURE.

 

Design note: I tried to think outside the box and instead of doing a travel or vacation layout with these paper, I let the accents inspire me and I created a page about my enterprising husband and the adventurous life we have.

Adventure by Janneke Smit. Supplies: Paper, Tag and Accents: Making Memories, Chipboard Letters: Scenic Route, Heart with Brad: Carolee’s Creations, Ribbon: Michael's, Ink: Clearsnap, Pen: Zig Millennium, Other: Red Elastic Ribbon, Staples.

 

 

Journaling: [Aug. 07] What a great shot of Nana, Matthew and McKenna the hour we were to leave for home from our annual camping trip. Til next year.

Goodbye, Keuka Lake 2007 by Lindsey Krauss. Supplies: Paper, Stickers, Snap, Rub-ons: Making Memories, Ink: Ranger, Flower: Prima, Sketch by Marilyn McKnight.

Design note: Making Memories never disappoints when it comes to supplies of all kinds! For this photo, I needed paper as nostalgic as the photo made me feel. This is always a bittersweet day, leaving our upstate haven, which we only visit once a year. The papers were as important to me as the photo itself. Making Memories' traveling papers were more than perfect, although not in the conventional way. The papers helped me to explain, without words, that we were far from home and about to travel at the time of the photo both with their design and color. The stickers noted subtly that it was our vacation and it's always an adventure. The postcard was cut from a piece of patterned paper from the line and it just made the most perfect journaling spot!

 

Design note: I have always wanted something to hold my CHA badges, pins and memorabilia from my trips to CHA Chicago and Anaheim. These papers were perfect for this chest and hold everything wonderfully! I used the rub-on inside on the mirror, and it went on very easy.
