Workshop Wednesday!

I hope you all had fun doing your calendars!  I got a notice yesterday from CM that mine will take a few days to process (of course, I left it to the last minute to order).  They had over 8000 calendars ordered on the last day alone!  (Update:  as of 10:00 a.m. this morning, my 3 calendars have already shipped - what fast service!) Thank you for all your orders, and don't forget those pages count for the Page a Day challenge.  Here's a couple of pages shared by Debra W. - aren't they cute?

  Debra created the Plaid background from a tutorial on http://www.pixels2pages.net/ - if you haven't checked this website out yet, I highly encourage you to.  It's been put together by a group of independent Creative Memories consultants and they have wonderful training webinars on how to get the most from your Storybook Creator software.


The second page was inspired by a design on the Project Center http://projectcenter.creativememories.com/, another great source for ideas.  This one was on the digital side, but it is very easy to convert a traditional layout.  It uses the new Cheerful Autumn Power Palette Addition.  The Cheerful line is a fantastic pack for families with kids!


Challenge update:  The numbers are slowly trickling in, so far I have:
Betty M. 24 pages, Debra W. 96, Janette B. 60, Heather M. 36, Vicki M. 12, Michelle V., Ina K., and Rhonda B. all with a page each, and me - 36 pages!  For every 5 pages you get done, you'll be entered in a draw for a free album with pages and page protectors or the equivalent value in free digital software and downloads (winner's choice).  And for every page you complete, you'll get 10 Memory Keepers Club points!

Hope to see you all at tonight's workshop!
