Studio J® Love Your Layout: January 2013

As I mentioned on my February 2 post the Close to My Heart promotion for February 2013 is "Digital Delights!" During the month of February 2013 you can purchase any Studio J^® layout for only $5*.

January 2013 - Pear & Partridge Kit: Stitching with Style

It might be perfect timing that the Pear & Partridge Kit is used in the January 2013 Love Your Layout video since Christmas 2012 was only a few weeks ago (but it seems like months to me) and you might be scrapping those memories now.

If you want to work on your layout while watching the video, here are the basics of putting the layout together:

• Kit Name: Pear & Partridge
• Pattern: Designer's Eye™
• Kit Mix:

The CTMH description for the video reads "Use Studio J®, Close To My Heart's online scrapbooking software, to create a festive layout in just minutes by watching this month's Love Your Layout(sm) video. You'll learn creative techniques on how to add your own stitching, create a top border with journaling, and more. Log in to Studio J to create it yourself while you watch!"

The January 2013 video refers to a technique demonstrated in the June 2012: Cruisin' Kit: Getting the Polaroid Look Love Your Layout video. If you would like to watch the June 2012, click on the link (it will open in a new video).

In case you have not looked at Studio J^® recently (or are new to the online scrapbooking software, you will be happy to know that the paper packets that were just introduced in the Spring/Summer 2013 Idea Books are available to use now. This is in addition to paper packets that were in past Idea Books and are no longer available to purchase.
