Three Ideas from the Creative Team

Each of these layouts from our creative team uses a sketch or layered template from the membership along with one of this month’s twelve new Story Starters.

You can get instant access to a library of more than 400 Story Starter™ prompts when you become a member at Simple Scrapper.

    I knew when I saw this story starter that I would have to scrap a layout about one of our family gatherings which always seem to center around food. This one is from the day after Thanksgiving – we all thought we were still full from Thanksgiving, but yet we all brought a lot of food and ate it!
