There are MANY great things coming from the new season idea book and I'm sure that you all will be just as excited as I am about it. There is something for everyone...and I mean EVERYONE! The classic scrapbooker, the card maker, the stamper, the mini albumer (I think I just made up a new word), the altered artist and the digital scrapper. I am not disappointed and neither will you be. 

Speaking of digital scrapping, I prefer to call Studio J on-line scrapping. It does not require software and all you have to do is sign on to your profile that you create from my website. It's very easy. Well, Close To My Heart has made Studio J available to everyone without a membership AND they have lowered the cost for a 2 page layout to $6.95! And if that's not great enough they've created beautiful Express layouts that are specifically designed for the most scrapped events in our lives. 

How many of you have your babies or events stored in JPEGs just waiting to be placed on beautifully designed layouts? I'm guilty!. My wonderful friend, Angela has a great t-shirt that says. "Don't let your babies grow up to be JPEGs". And unfortunately, that's what we do. So I decided I was going to try out the New Express Studio J...and here it is.

 

These ladies are members of my meetup.com group - "McDonough Scrap Attack". I've had these photos in my computer since January 2011. And it took me 5 minutes to complete these 2 pages. This is PERFECT for me because I spend most of my time making cards and will complete the occasional layout here and there. But this will literally enable me to do something with all the pictures on my computer. 

Now for those of you who want to create your own design, well the sky is the limit with Studio J! Go to my website today and try it out. IT DOESN'T COST A THING FOR YOU TO TRY IT!!
