Scrappin from A to Z with Kathryn Estry


Hi!  I'm Kathryn Estry, a designer here at MyMemories, and this is my second round of episodes, From A to Z.  My goal is to give you a new idea with each letter so that you'll never be at a loss as to what to scrap or how to make your pages look amazing. Luckily for me, I have a brilliant Creative Team, and the inspiration layouts I use in this series were made by the talented ladies on my team. 

I'm hoping you'll see some things in my A to Z Blog Series that you want to try!  If you do take any of these ideas and run with them, I'd love to see your layouts!  Please post them in the MyMemories forum in this month's A to Z Challenge thread HERE. Everyone who posts a layout in my challenge thread this month will receive a surprise gift!

U is for ...

Uniqueness!

These layouts each have special features that make them unique, and they stand out to me.  I think you'll see ideas you'll want to use.  Thanks to Gina, Kabra, Kathy, Liz, Melly, and Yvonne for sharing their pages!

Cute groups of rounded squares were cut from the front paper to make Gina's interesting background.


Kabra also cut shapes, circles this time, from her front paper and added a variety of papers below them.


Kathy has used a section of one paper as a pocket.  I know this is an idea you'll want to use.



Strips of papers and ribbons make the cutest tree in Liz's layout.



Melly has photos in multiple frames, a neat way to show off lots of photos.  In the next sample, Melly put her photos in holes cut from the front paper.





You have to love this layout!  Yvonne has framed her photo to look as if the ram is coming out of the frame.


I'd love to see you use some of these unique ideas in your pages.  Please post your layouts in my forum challenge, Scrapping with Kathryn from A to Z! Remember everyone who posts a layout gets you a free gift from me.
