August Sketch is Ready



I can't believe another month has passed. Here it already August and Scrapbook Fever has a new sketch. The sketch this month is designed Janet Bradshaw. It's fun and easy. She took an 8" x 8" square and put 4 - 3 3/4" x 3 3/4" photos on it. Next she double matted a 4" x 6" photo as the focal point. Before putting down the pictures she cut an 11 3/4" x 6" strip of patterned paper for a splash of color. She adhered the pattern paper, then the 8x8 and topped it with the 4x6. With some of the left over patterned paper she created a custom tag using the Making Memories Tag Frames. You could also put another small photo in the tag. She added a smaller cardstock tag for the date and then attached them to the page using the Paper Tagger & Tagger Tails by Around the Block. Finish off the page with your title and you are good to go. You could add a hidden journaling block or replace one of the square photos with your journaling.

Check out the sketch she did using the photos of her dad's long horns. I love the Texas paper and the subject matter is pretty cool too!

New Neighbor? No Old Neighbor, New Paper!


Look at the new local paper exclusively at Scrapbook Fever. Have you ever been visiting a place or friend and stop at the local scrapbook store? Remember how disappointing it is when you can't find paper or embellishments about the place or state you are visiting. We have a local paper company that is trying to remedy that when your friends come to Round Rock to visit you. We are adding specialty papers from Round Rock and surrounding communities.

The two page Round Rock paper was released a couple months ago. Scrapbook Fever hosted a suggestion box for the next release and it was Hutto, our neighbor just to the east. We've heard rumor that next may be Georgetown or possibly Austin. We'll be glad to share suggestions and ideas when the next paper design goes to the drawing board. Post a message here or leave a comment at the store.

Happenings at the Fever in August

Do you want a hint for all the good things that will be going on in August at the Fever?
