This cake was made by Lynda in celebration of Maura’s birthday and we presented it as a surprise to Maura during our big “Scrap”Yard Sale a few weeks ago. Lynda sent the recipe to me for posting as it was highly requested by everyone who was lucky enough to have a piece of this delicious cake! Thanks Lynda!

The Captured Moments’ monthly scrapbook kit club May issue is awesome! We’ve brought together the new Collage Press Knave of Hearts paper line with some great Maya Road embellishments to create this month’s issue. Beautiful, heavy weight, double-sided paper with mini chipboard gears, clock faces , green velvet ribbon and blue, wavy ric-rac offers a bit more of a masculine feel than our last few kits. I did hear Tiffany say that this is her favorite kit so far…

Every Tuesday, Captured Moments offers a Make & Take project at the store. These projects are designed to inspire new ideas or introduce a new technique or tool of the trade. As someone who has to create a new and exciting Make & Take project every week, I am forever on the look-out for anything that might inspire me. Of course, like many other people, I check out other web-sites, trade magazines, and catalogs that might offer an idea or two, but, when all else fails… I take a ride to the local dollar store! You never know what you might find there and if you do find something that inspires you, chances are, it will cost a dollar! We found a great little travel book, kind of a travel “brag” book that just cried out, “Scrap me up and make me beautiful!”
Altered Travel Album, a great find at a dollar store

We created this project to present as a workshop at a weekend long retreat we attended this spring. It was a very popular class and we have had numerous requests for additional kits and instruction. This is an easy, but totally functional project, perfect for any gift giving occasion or just to showcase a favorite set of photos for your coffee table or desk at work!
