We are one week away from starting the next edition of the Captured Moments’ Build-Your-Own-Book Club. This edition, called “Beautiful, Sexy Me” is a combination of Graphic 45′s Steampunke Debutant, Prima’s Moulin-Rouge and a little of everything in-between! This 20 page, 8×8 scrapbook highlights all the awesome power and beauty within each and every woman. Here is page 1 of this edition…

The “Beautiful, Sexy Me” BYOB Club is more than halfway filled and the club is limited to a defined number of participants. If you are not sure what our BYOB Club is… read on, but before that… Read the rest of this entry »

Registration for the next edition of our popular Build-Your-Own-Book Club is open. Tiffany has been creating this book in her head for the last 2 months and she is finally ready to put it on paper! We have all the papers and embellishments in and she will be creating our sample pages this week.

This is a collage of items Tiffany has planned to use in this book. Graphic 45's Steampunke Debutante papers, Prima's Moulon-Rouge papers and stickers, Prima flowers and vintage charms, Graphic 45 metal flowers, feathers, vintage images and more!

If you are unfamiliar with the Captured Moments Build Your Own Book Club (BYOB), I will explain. Participants sign up and are committed to 10 weeks. Each Friday, a new double page layout is issued in the form of a kit. All papers are cut, and embellishments are included to complete the two pages issues that week. You are also provided with images and instruction to help you put the pages together. After 10 weeks, you have a completed 20 page 8×8 album ready for photos and journaling! The weekly dues are $12. The kits issue every Friday but participants can pick up the kits at any time after they issue, it doesn’t have to be on the Friday. Captured Moments does also offer shipping of the BYOB kits and we have shipped kits all the way to California!   Read the rest of this entry »

The newest edition of the Build Your Own Book Club is about to begn! The first issue will hit on Friday, February 18th. We still have some room in this club, so I have set up a convenient link to register on-line!

This edition uses our namesake, “Captured Moments” to set the theme. Why didn’t we think of this sooner? Tiffany will be creating her pages using the Bo Bunny “Mama-Razzi” line as her base. I have no doubt this book will be beautiful!

If you are not familiar with the BYOB club, I’ll explain… It’s a 10 week program. Each week participants pay a $12 fee and receive a double page 8×8 layout kit. Along with the pre-cut papers and necessary embellishments, you receive instruction and images, and, when neccessary, additional information is posted on the blog. At the end of 10 weeks, you have a completed 20 page 8×8 scrapbook just waiting for your photos and journaling! It’s the easiest way to complete a book. The Mama-Razzi papers and embellishments from Bo Bunny establish the base of this book and then Tiffany, with her expertise, adds her magic touch to give this club and it’s books that special “Captured Moments” look and feel!

You don’t have to be local to join the BYOB. We do ship the kits and have done so in the past with much success! Once registration is established, we will contact our “distant’ customers and work out the shipping options available!
