Hi everyone! My name is Izzy Anderson and I’m so excited to be guest designing for We R Memory Keepers today. Have you seen the fun, new line, Feelin’ Groovy? Like the name suggests, it rocks a retro vibe. I was immediately drawn to the bold design of the patterned paper named “Groovy.” The pretty blue-green palette reminded me of the beach and I thought it would be the perfect backdrop for my page.
End of the School Year Cinch Book
I love to take photos of my kids on their first day of school, and then again on the last day of school. Placing them together on the same scrapbook page really highlights how they’ve changed over the school year. This year I decided to place the first and last day photos in a 6×6 Cinch book. Here’s how it turned out:
Although it’s not a school themed collection, the lined papers, graph papers, and numbers in the For The Record collection lend themselves perfectly to the theme of this album. I made a two page spread for each of my kids that includes the first and last day photos, plus some journaling about the school year. Take a look below:
I printed my 3×4 inch photos, added some patterned paper, chipboard stickers, embossed stickers, and washi tape to my pages before punching them in the Cinch machine. In order to fit all of this on each page I created some fold-out journaling flaps.
I cut apart the journaling cards on the Notecards paper and used them as my journaling flaps. They’re just the right size!
Washi tape was the perfect way to attach these–it’s flexible and plenty tacky to hold the flap in place. Simply place one length of washi tape along one side of the card so that half overlaps onto the background paper…
…then place another length of washi tape along the other side so that half overlaps onto the background paper.
I keep this Cinch book in a basket out where my kids can look at it and enjoy the fun memories they’ve had this school year. It’s the perfect way to see the growth they’ve experienced.

Here’s a fun challenge to help you use up your scrapbook stash and enjoy your favorite new goodies at the same time: create a project (scrapbook page, card, tag, decor, etc) using something old and something new. Of course, old and new are relative terms, but let’s say for this challenge that “old” means something not from this year, and “new” means something you purchased this year. Sound good?
For this challenge I grabbed some goodies from one of my all time favorite older We R collections, Good Day Sunshine. I combined those with some of the new colors of Washi Tape released this year.
I love to have spare cards and tags on hand for friends, neighbors, birthdays, weddings, etc, so I created this friendship tag with my “old” and “new” products.
After cutting my tag shape out of one of the papers from the 4×6 pad, I layered some more paper, washi tape, embossed stickers, and chipboard stickers.
To finish off the tag I added a couple of glitter brads, an eyelet, and some baker’s twine. Easy peasy, and I used up some of my stash–a win/win for sure!
