Happy October, scrapbook friends, and happy 10 year anniversary to “new” CM! I am so thankful for the way Creative Memories rose from the ashes of the previous company - for a while there I thought the albums and tools I loved would be gone for good, and I still remember the excitement I felt when the new company launched in 2014. Some of you have been on this journey with me all these years, and aren’t you glad we have been able to experience this??
I also appreciate those of you who are new to me (and maybe to CM?), including the people I met just yesterday at the (oh so hot) Madison Street Festival. Thanks for stopping by to chat with me and take a look at all the great products we have to offer. I sure hope you will come to a cropping event soon!
This email will have info about October (and a couple of November) events, BIG news about Creative Memories’ Birthday promo, and a whole bunch of new products, including Christmas Charm, New 6.75 x 10 Happy Albums and a fun Recipe Book Project Box!

I would love to have you join us at a cropping event at my studio in Madison, Alabama.
October Event registration is now open:
I had a couple of people tell me yesterday that they would love to come to a crop but can’t always plan ahead. So please know that except for big events (like Croptoberfest or retreats) it’s usually very possible for me to fit you in at the last minute! Best plan is to text me at 910-584-6302 as soon as you know you want to join us, and I will let you know if we have space!
Wednesday Day Crops: October 9, 23 and 30.
Happy Album Circle: Tuesday, October 8, 6:00 - 8:00 pm
October Project Recipe layout class: Tuesday, October 29, 6:00 - 8:00 pm
Both Croptoberfest weekends are completely SOLD OUT. Unfortunately here will be NO other weekend crops in October because my calendar is completely full, but I hope you can join us in November (Either November 8/9 or 22/23 - registration for that will open up in mid-October).
Beginner/Refresher Scrapbooking Class: Saturday, November 2, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm. Do you have a friend who has expressed an interest in learning to scrapbook? Are you feeling a little rusty and want to go over the basics again? This is the event for you!

Happy Birthday Creative Memories!
|
|
|
Creative Memories has been around since the 1980s - BUT in 2013/14 things looked bleak. Thankfully we got a new owner in October 2014 and things have been better than ever with CM ever since!
To celebrate this milestone anniversary, CM is offering a bonus gift with purchase starting Monday, October 7th at noon Central time. |

For a limited time, you can earn the exclusive 52 Scrapbooking Project Recipes Book and Birthday Bash Embellishments FREE when you spend $100! (On my website OR via preorder on the form linked later in this email!)
You may already be famililar with Creative Memories’ Project Recipes, but here’s your opportunity to get a selection of them (all from 2022 or before) in a convenient book format! All of the Projext Recipes have been recreated using current products, so you’ll get to see how versatile this style of idea book can be!
Because there are 52 Project Recipes, CM will be doing a Complete the Book challenge in the Virtual Crop group on Facebook, to do one sketch a week for the opportunity to earn prizes! Details for that are printed in the book.
In addition to the Project Recipe book, you’ll also get the exclusive 20-piece Birthday Embellishments set - it coordinates with Birthday Bonanza and is ONLY available through this promo!
Please note that unlike previous years, this is limited to one book/bundle with a $100+ order (unless you order $500 or more). Hopefully this will keep some of you from having duplicates of the idea book! |

October always means Christmas for CM (hey- crafters get a pass, because we need time to get those holiday gifts made, right?) and this year’s Christmas Charm collection is sure to be a big hit!
The album cover is Ruby bookcloth with gold and green metallic foil in a fun Christmas Tree design. There is a Designer Paper pack, Stickers, Variety Mat Pack and Embellishments (a mix of die cuts and laser cuts), plus THREE new tools!
|
|
The Ribbons & Bows Border Punch is going to be a favorite - it punches a continuous line of simple bows. I got to try this one out early for the Project Recipe (read on for details!) and I think it’s going to be one of my favorites!
The Festive Lightbulb Punch is sure to be a hit with those of you (you know who you are) who love the big C9 style of lights for holiday decorating.
Finally the Linear Plaid Border Maker Cartridge looks cool on its own, but it really works well when you weave other colors through it! I can’t wait to play with this one!
|
|
Order the Buy-it-All Bundle within the first ten days and you’ll get all the decorative items pictured above (does not include the album cover) and save 10% off the regular retail price. PLUS you’ll get a bonus Green Shimmer Brush Pen that is only available through this bundle.
Need a bit more enticement? Order the bundle within the first TWO days and you’ll be entered to win a “year’s supply” of Tape Runner! PLUS at $100 for the bundle, it also qualifies you to earn the Birthday Project Recipe book and embellishments!

Above is a screenshot from our Advisor email because this is another Project Recipe that I was privileged to create! I’m so happy that I was able to get TEN photos on here (and would have done 12 if they had been my own photos - I would have put them in the little presents up on top!)
I am not allowed to post my video of how to complete this layout until Wednesday (CM wants to make it fair to everyone who didn’t have the chance to get their hands on the products early like I did!) but once I get that posted you’ll be able to view it on my YouTube channel. Until then you can get the downloadable directions on my website here: Nicole’s Project Recipes

It costs $62 and includes the following items: 6.75x10 foiled album cover Horizontal Pocket Pages (12/pk) Recipe Card Mat Pack (24/pk) Paper Pack (6/pk) Embellishments (16/pk) BONUS Potholder!

Doesn’t that look fun?? Who do you have on your holiday shopping list that would love a book of recipes shared by YOU?? Or who would you like to gather recipes from to create a gift for yourself?
CM thinks this is going to be a popular item - there’s a limit of 5 per order - so if you think this is something you’ll want, you may not want to wait to order. |

Several of you have asked me about the 2025 Happy Album cover for your Calendar Journal, and it’s here! Choose from Navy with the 2025 date in gold foil, Antique Red with Delicate Daisies, or solid Spruce Green.
If you want to create a calendar journal (like the one I do every year) you’ll also need refill pages, and the Happy Album Planner kit. CM is offering a bundle with all the things you’ll need (unless, like me, you like to leave a blank page in between the calendar pages, in which case you’ll need a second set of blank pages). |
|
|
For a closer look at all the products launching at noon Monday, you can check out CM’s info page here: October 7th New Products
For my local friends, if you would like me to order for you, please use this order form: Nicole’s Preorder Form. (If you order directly from me through this form you’ll also have the opportunity to purchase the coordinating cardstock for the collectiona - these are offered by me and not by CM so they’re not available on the website).
If you are NOT local, as always I appreciate it more than I can say when you order on my website:
