CHA Winter 09 Sneak Peek

Welcome to our Sneak Peek of the new KI Memories Potpourri Collection!

No, it's not real potpourri, but rather, a vibrant assortment of all kinds
of colorful, happy products from all kinds of themes, sure to delight your
senses. This Collection is a fresh and surprising combination of all that
is loved by scrapbookers, stampers, cardmakers, and crafters.  It's truly
what YOU make of it. Mix and match products across lines within the
Collection for limitless creative potential. We hope you enjoy playing
with our new products as much as we loved designing them!

A special note:
Our new Collection incorporates lower price points on several of our
products. That's right, we said "lower price points"! With some small but
impactful adjustments to packaging (as one example), we were able to
accomplish this for you, our valued customers. These minor changes won't
detract from our quality or design efforts. You'll still find the same KI
products you've come to know and love - just wrapped up a little
differently and with a prettier price tag!

Wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful 2009.

Celebrate Life®,
The KI Memories team

All Star Paper Week

KI Memories is kicking of the All Star Paper Week over at the Hero Arts Blog! Of course KI is an All Star!!  Thanks Hero for asking!  I was asked to make a couple projects showing how the colorful and vibrant KI products can mix with some fun Hero Arts stamps.  It was definitely fun!!

Here is my layout:

Festive products were primarily used for this non-Christmas layout.  The jewel tones are too lovely to save for just Christmas.  I stamped the Big Owl on white cardstock and then colored it in with colored pencils in shades that matched the paper.  I also cut the journaling block and embellishment on the photo from the Sheer Delight used. 

Here is a close-up of the journaling:

Supplies Used:
Festive Holly Jolly Patterned Paper
Festive Gift Wrap Patterned Paper
Festive Foil Shapes Epoxy Stickers
Festive Glitter Alpha Rub-ons
Festive Mini Sashes
Borderlines Cardstock Stickers-Multi
Gizmos 2 Sheer Delights
Bloom Words Felt Embellishments
To Do List Clear Stamps
Hero Stamp: Big Owl

And a card:

The Festive Decor 3D Santa hat sticker fit perfectly on top of the Santa Owl!  I layered Borderlines, patterned paper and a Sash and then added the owl with a few 'party' themed stickers.  The owl looks like the life of the party to me!

Supplies Used:

Colorful Funky Stripe Sentiments Notecard
Festive Gift Wrap Patterned Paper
Festive Decor 3D Stickers
Festive Party 3D Stickers
Festive Mini Sashes
Borderlines Cardstock Stickers -Multi
Hero Stamp: Santa Owl

Creative Storage

I know that most of us are 'collectors' of scrapbooking supplies.  And if you are anything like me you are always looking for creative and cute ways to store them.  I had a couple little ideas I thought I'd share with you today. 

The first one is using the Trendy Tins to store the new Hip Chip Shapes.  I cut the back of the packaging and adhered it to the inside of the tin.  Now my tins have a use until I'm ready to put an album or something in them. 

Another idea is for easy storage of the Color Lab tubes.  I used one of the famous Target $1 tins and left the Color Lab in the plastic holder that was inside the box.  That way the tubes easily slide in and out and I can keep the sets together.

We'd love to see your creative ideas for storing KI Memories products.  Link us here and you never know, you might get a goodie.:)
