CTMH--- Studio J--- Another Birthday Layout

I tell you, I'm really loving using Studio J for events that have LOTS and LOTS of pictures! I think this just may cut down on the # of pages that go in the albums and I can save my paper playing for the fun every day shots :)

Besides that, I can use it for paper packs that I either don't have (like this one: Magic Moments) or ones that I've used up all the paper and don't want to buy another whole set (like I did with Rough and Tumble, the last birthday LO) OR for paper packs that are retired (there are a few that are in Studio J but are retired now)

CTMH-- Studio J--- Christmas Layout

Just wanted to share yet another Studio J layout I created. Now that I've done a couple, its getting faster, simpler, easier! Seriously. This one took me less than an hour :) And I don't have to blow up the big photo or resize the other 3. Just place them in the photo well and adjust from there :)
I love the distressing I can do, adding whatever embellishments I want (or leaving the standard ones that they have "pre-set" for you).

I urge you to give Studio J a try when its available to all!!!!!

CTMH--- Studio J--- Boo Layout

As a consultant, I was finally granted access to CTMH's newest adventure--- Studio J.
Studio J is yet another way to make your scrapbooking faster, simpler, easier! It is digital scrapbooking that does not require you to download any software. You simply go to my website and click on the Studio J link and create! There are several paper packs (retired ones and an exclusive one), many layout patterns to choose from and then tons of embellishments to make your projects shine!

This layout is my first with Studio J. I used the exclusive paper kit "Boo". I looooove it! This layout was pretty easy to create, once I got used to how it worked ;)



Now that I've created this fabulous layout, all I have to do is order it. BUT there are some package deals for when you order 5 and 10 layouts at a time, so I'll wait :)

This program will be available to EVERYONE in March, so stay tuned :)
