Studio J® Love Your Layout: June 2012

June 2012 - Cruisin’ Kit: Getting the Polaroid Look

There was no Studio J® Love Your Layout: July 2012 video. I am guessing that is because the new Idea Book was released in July 2012 and it was around the time of the CTMH Convention. Therefore we are going to jump back to June 2012 and use the Crusin' kit and learn how to get the look of Polaroid photos on our layout.

The Crusin' collection was released in the Spring/Summer 2012 Idea Book. Unfortunately the Cruisin' collection can no longer be purchased in physical format, but thankfully is it still available in Studio J®.

The basics of putting your layout together:
  • Kit Name: Crusin'
  • Pattern: Harmony™
  • Kit Mix: 3
Now let's get started creating a layout.


The CTMH description for the video reads "Use Studio J® to create a beautiful layout in just minutes by watching this month's Love Your Layout(sm) video. You'll use text boxes in creative ways to add unique touches to your artwork. Watch the video here and then log into Studio J to try it yourself!"

I really like all of the special touches that were added to this layout. Who would have through you could create the look of Polaroid photos and banners with simple boxes. I think the staples were a great touch too.

I will be adding links to each of the Love Your Layout videos over the next few days, but if you are anxious to view the previous Love Your Layout videos immediately, you will find all of the Close To My Heart Studio J® videos at Close To My Heart's YouTube channel.

A Few More Notes About Studio J®

As I mentioned on my October 11, 2012 post, Studio J® is the CTMH product that is featured this month and has a special promotion tied to it.



The promotion is buy 9 custom-printed Studio J® layouts, get the 10th free. Just add 10 or more layouts to your cart and you’ll automatically receive every 10th layout free! There is a limit of 4 free layouts per order. Included with your custom-printed two-page layout is the accompanying free JPG file (whenever you purchase a two-page layout you also receive the JPG file free). Shipping for Studio J® layouts is charged per box (regardless if the box contains free layouts or not) and one box will hold 50 layouts. The full retail value of the free layout is $6.95. The promotion ends on October 31, 2012.

I have to admit that I am a fairly new Studio J® user, but I do not want that to deter anyone from using it. I have been using the product and watching the videos that I have been sharing with you over the past two weeks and it is a very versatile product. I love that I do not have to purchase software and install it (and keep track of a license key); I only need my digital photos, a live Internet connection and a web browser with the Adobe Flash Player plug-in to use Studio J®. So simple.

Another thing I love about Studio J®: I can use previously released paper packs that I love, but no longer can find for purchase. Because of that, over the next few days I will share many of the "Love Your Layout" videos, including layouts made with older paper packs. Who knows what tips or tricks your will learn from those videos?

In case you are just getting started with Studio J®, here is a list of my blog posts with Studio J® videos designed to help you get started creating your own wonderful layouts:

An Introduction to Studio J®

There are many reasons why someone might like to use digital scrapbooking. You can take it with you if you travel often for work; you just need your computer (with your photos saved to it), a web browser and Internet connection. Or if space in your home is a premium and you do not have room to store all of the papers and embellishments that go into traditional scrapbooking. Or you want to create multiple copies of a layout because you want to share the layouts with family and friends. Whatever your reason, Studio J® is a great place to start because you do not have to purchase and install software on your computer. Everything is done from an active Internet connection and web browser with the Adobe Flash Player plug-in.


The CTMH description for the video reads "You've taken the photos, now keep the memories. Introducing Studio J™, online design software from Close To My Heart. Real life. Real scrapbooks. Real time."

Let's get started with Studio J®. For pricing and the FAQ scroll down that page a bit. If you have questions that are not answered there, please contact me by clicking on the Shop with me link below.
