Platinum Scraps: Reading Is Fundamental

Platinum Scraps was originally launched February of 2010 as a vision of several friends who met on the Cricut Message board who wanted to venture out into creating, sharing, and showcasing the many talents each of us possess. Platinum Scraps showcases the diversity in scrapbooking and features designers from all walks of life. To keep the tradition going, each week our design team is challenged to create a unique layout or card based on a sketch that exemplifies their skills and talents. We hope that we inspire your creations and we appreciate your continued love and support as we grow together.

Reading Is Fundamental

So far this week in our free for all design team challenge, we have received a tutorial on vinyl, a beautiful layout featuring digital products, and a detailed tutorial on creating our very own tissue paper hanger.

As day four has come, you won't be disappointed either. It is so good to see designers move outside the realm of traditional crafting to create new products that still fit in with crafting.

I can remember as a child in every library, those three words resonated everywhere. It was key that we developed a love for reading. Today, designer Leialoha has brought that thought back to mind with these adorable book marks she has created for her book club members. The bookmarks are a nice touch from your everyday bookmark. I am sure her book club members will be thrilled at their next meeting when she presents the bookmarks.
