Thank you for the mention and video tag! I was biting my nails when you decided to ink those letters but I LOVE it. And that crackle stamp is so awesome.
Your photos and this pack are a perfect match with everything you've created so far with this collection. Love this and the additions of the Mocha inking and crackle stamp (my most used from this set).
I keep thinking I should get another paper pack from this collection, it’s just too perfect for me! The crackle stamp is my favorite too and different from any other texture stamp I have so it was a need to have 😉
I love this paper pack--CTMH has made a very nice color combination. I hope they keep coming out with paper packs in these colors. It works so well for ranch/farm photos. But how fun to use it with Autumn photos from farmers markets, or pumpkin patch roadside markets. I really like the orange/brown colors in the horseshoeing photo. Fabulous layout--I very much like it.
Love this layout. It all came together beautifully. Your choice of papers and embellishments and how you arranged them compliment the photos and make them shine rather than detract and get lost.
I really like the finished effect with the piggies tucked underneath as they were really looking out of place on the page the more you progressed. Thank goodness for flip flaps!! The memories certainly improved as well once they were coloured & spread more across the patterned paper as the darkness of their colour gave them more presence & they seemed to become larger & more pronounced than in the original colour. Altogether the pages look fantastic in their final state & the sunset horse gives the two pages a bright finish.
As soon as I saw this collection come out, I immediately thought of you working your magic with it. You didn’t disappoint. I love what you did to make this layout beautiful! The flip flap highlighting the pig is adorable. TFS, Monika
No wonder you love this paper collection so much, it works so well with your families lifestyle. I love your layout design and will be casing it for sure. Thank you for the inspiration!
Right? The colors and theme of this paper is perfect! I am always drawn to blues and browns anyway. I am glad you are going to recreate the layout design. Happy crafting my friend!
I love this layout and listening to you talk about how you make your choices! It certainly all came together in the end. Thanks for reminding me about making my own distressed pattern paper, I always forget that! Watching your videos is one of my favorite things to do when i need ideas. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
Love the layout. I thought the picture of your husband went with the color theme because of the papers you were using especially because of the ground area. Thanks for the inspiration. Love your outdoor layouts. I think it would be fun to use the stamp set because of the cow and horse. I would take the cow and color it black because we have angus beef.
Erin, I absolutely love all your videos!! I’ve been binge watching you every day to get inspired. I am brand new to scrapbooking and card making. I am basically starting from ground zero. Where do I begin? A Cut Above? What are the absolute necessities I need to get started?
Hello Phyllis! Welcome to this wonderful community of scrapbookers, I am so glad you are enjoying the videos. The Cut Above kits are a great place to start, you really only need a tape runner and your photos to create those. To take it a step further I recommend you have a paper trimmer, scissors, a refillable tape runner and ideally a Versamat. You do not have to have the Versamat but I do use it every time I scrapbook and it is very helpful. The workshops are a bit more involved than the cut above kits but still achievable for new scrapbookers because they have the step by step directions. Reach out any time, I am always happy to help and answer any questions you may have.
I always struggle with journaling and what tense to use. I want to be consistent but was curious do you write as if you are telling the story? Using "I" a lot. I am going to try and catch that in your video's but I wondered how you approach it.
That is a great question. It really depends but typically it is written from my perspective. If it is a layout intended for one of my boys I like to write it to them as if I was writing a letter.
I just ordered the Epson Photo mate 400 like yours. Would you share how you make smaller photos since the picture mate only makes 4x6 pictures. Thank you!
You are going to love it!!! Do you have an iPhone? If so, I use the Print to size app to print smaller photos. I have a video showing the process and you may find it helpful. th-cam.com/video/unDuVv0lxKA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DUyc7TMqLisLGxpK
I mainly create family albums. Each son has their own baby book from birth through their first birthday. I figure eventually I will start sorting layouts into albums pertaining to each kid.
Hello, I use Flip Flaps and love them. I went back and found this older video of mine showing how they work. The Flip Flap part starts around the ten minute mark and you can see exactly how they work. They are a staple in my craft room! th-cam.com/video/mdpCopNY5qE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=F7tLaPw668ilqWah
I love watching your process and hearing how you make decisions. Thanks for sharing your beautiful layout!
Thank you Kati, you are so welcome and I appreciate your kind comments.
Fantastic layout. Again you make it look so easy love your style of your layouts. TFS❣️
You are so clever! I love watching you. The zip strip bump up wouldn't be something I'd have thought of.
Great layout again! ❤
Thank you! Sometimes solving a problem leads to a better design than one originally imagined
Just love everything about these layouts!!! Thanks so much for sharing❤
Thank you Cheryl, I am really enjoying this paper collection!
Love it.
Gorgeous page. Love the flip flap. The whole design is terrific & I love the colours.
Thank you so much! These colors really speak to me. It’s always fun to create hidden little elements to include with Flip Flaps.
Beautiful layout! Love the collection of photos.
Thank you so much my friend!
Thank you for the mention and video tag! I was biting my nails when you decided to ink those letters but I LOVE it. And that crackle stamp is so awesome.
You are so welcome, I loved your layout! I get nervous watching crafters do things too and then am pleasantly surprised at the end 😂

I hope so too! These colors are some of my favorites to create with.
You knocked it out again, I love it! ❤
Yay, thank you!
Such a cute layout! Love the papers in that collection.
Thank you, me too! These colors and patterns have worked so well for a multitude of my photos.
Great layout, Erin. I love your choice of paper combinations
Thanks so much!
Love this layout. It all came together beautifully. Your choice of papers and embellishments and how you arranged them compliment the photos and make them shine rather than detract and get lost.
Thank you so much, I am glad you enjoyed the end result.
Love these papers… they would go nicely for my husband’s farm pics
They are perfect for farm photos. I am really enjoying the colors and patterns.

Oh thank you! I have been pretty excited about this paper pack. I still have a few more layouts I would like to get done.

Thank you so much! I am truly glad the videos give you creative ideas to try. Sometimes I forget techniques and then you get to rediscover them again!
Love this layout Erin! I have so many similar photos! Thank you for always providing so much inspiration!
Thank you! I bet you have lots of great photos perfect for this collection.
Love the layout. I thought the picture of your husband went with the color theme because of the papers you were using especially because of the ground area. Thanks for the inspiration. Love your outdoor layouts. I think it would be fun to use the stamp set because of the cow and horse. I would take the cow and color it black because we have angus beef.
Thank you and coloring the cow solid is a perfect idea! Nothing like home grown beef, right?
@@CraftyConceptswithErin I agree. Homegrown beef, pork, and chickens taste wonderful. There is nothing better.
Good job
Thank you Terryl!

Great layout! Love seeing all the animals on your farm. Is your husband a full time rancher? TFS
Thank you! No he is not a full time rancher, he works in the construction industry, mainly underground work.
I always struggle with journaling and what tense to use. I want to be consistent but was curious do you write as if you are telling the story? Using "I" a lot. I am going to try and catch that in your video's but I wondered how you approach it.

I ordered the $249.00 version since that is what you had listed on Amazon under your supplies.

Love this LO Erin and how you incorporate stamping so easy on the page, it always looks spectacular. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend. 💕
Thank you! Love your You Tube channel. You are so creative.
@erin do you scrapbook for your kids or do you just make a family album?
I mainly create family albums. Each son has their own baby book from birth through their first birthday. I figure eventually I will start sorting layouts into albums pertaining to each kid.
How do you connect the photo to flip it up?
