Introducing September's Use It All Challenge

Use It All – September (MyMemories)

This month we’ll be working with the Call Your Grands Sampler—I’m having so much fun seeing your creations; it’s amazing how unique and beautiful each one turns out! I hope this month’s challenge is just as inspiring and fun.

I’ve included a small bonus: a tag with a grandparents quote. Because not everyone is a grandparent (or has that role in their life), this piece is completely optional and not required for the challenge. If the saying doesn’t fit your page, try layering a block of solid paper over the text and use it for journaling, or repurpose it in another creative way.

Free Weekly Kit by Featured Designer: PapierStudio

Let’s welcome PapierStudio as this week’s Featured Designer! About Papier Studio I was born in Rio de Janeiro and now live in São Paulo. I’ve been married to Egon for 46 years, and together we’ve built a life full of love, family, and creativity. After three years apart, my son and his family are finally coming back from Beijing this September, and my heart is racing with happiness—especially because I’ll get to hold my 3-year-old grandson again. Since childhood, painting has been my passion, and today I express that love through mixed media art. I’ve been a digital designer and art teacher since 2008, when I created a blog full of tips and tricks for digital scrapbooking. My creative world is always inspired by the little things that spark wonder and the timeless details that carry stories through color, texture, and imagination. From delicate flourishes to whimsical touches, I love blending the nostalgic with the playful to create pieces that feel unique and full of life. Some of my favorite sources of inspiration include: -Vintage and Art Nouveau design – flowing spirals and swirling curves -Old and worn papers – torn edges and folded textures recreated digitally -Boho shapes and mixed media backgrounds -Artsy patterned papers with whimsical details -Painted and non-realistic elements that add depth and surprise -Flowers – both realistic and painterly -Artsy and whimsical faces that carry emotion and storytelling -Painted, artsy butterflies and birds that bring movement and freedom -Scattered bits, mini dots, and stars that complete the magic For me, art is not just about technique—it’s about weaving together nostalgia, whimsy, and imagination into something that feels both timeless and alive To finish off we would love to share some of PapierStudio’s favorite layouts: Layout from Carmen Miranda Layout from Celebrate Life Layout from Embrace the Journey Layout from Fur, Fins & Feathers: Farm Birds Layout from Fur, Fins & Feathers: Fishes Layout from Midnight Symphony Layout from Vanilla Sweetness Layout from Open Doors Spend $20 or more and receive this kit from PapierStudio for free!

PaintChips Seaside Ember

Paint Chips: Seaside Ember captures the soft glow of a summer sunset by the shore — where coral skies meet sandy tans and buttery yellow light dances across the waves. This digital scrapbook kit blends ocean-themed treasures with lush filler elements, including delicate flowers, leafy greenery, and flowing ribbons, giving you endless layering possibilities. Seashells, driftwood, and gentle coastal accents pair beautifully with warm pinks and tans for a look that’s both relaxed and radiant. Sentiments like Seaside Serenity, Coastal Calm, and Tidewashed & Tranquil bring the peaceful rhythm of the ocean to your pages, making it perfect for beach days, sunset strolls, and sunlit summer memories.
