April 2006

The 11 x 14 PicFolio Milestone Album features:

• 16 shees/32 Story Sleeve pages that hold 160 photos and journaling boxes
• A durable, black matte-leathered cover
• Tan stain-resistant canase inside liners
• Black Story Sleeve pages that are tested for durability and tear-resistance
• A bookplate inserted into a sleeve on the first page to label the album theme or year
• 32 tan title bars to label each two-page spread with stickers, pens or other enhancements.

The PicFolio Album was designed to be different from our other albums - it is non-expandable and the Story Sleeve pages make it easy for you to complete an album quickly and move onto the next album project!

PicFolio Minutes Album, $20

Like the PicFolio Milestones Album, the 6 x 7 PicFolio Minutes album is also designed to help you finish albums quickly and easily! Each page is sized for a single 4 x 6 photo (alone or matted) or Storybox journaling box. And the exclusive magnetic closure on the cover strap turns the album into an easel! Just lift the cover open, clasp the magnet from behind and the album's ready to be displayed on your desk, table or mantle! The album features:

• 12 sheets/24 Story Sleeve pages to hold a total of 24 photos and journaling boxes
• Durable, tan matte-leathered cover
• Tan, stain-resistant canvas inside liners
• Black Story Sleeves that are tested for durability and tear-resistance

I would recommend any of the Storybox Photo Mats & Journaling Boxes with either of the PicFolio albums! And as always, all PicFolio albums carries the same lifetime guarantee as all of the other Creative Memories Albums!

Below are the great new products introduced in March 2006!

12 x 12 Ever After Coverset, $32

The 12 x 12 Ever After Coverset is designed to preserve the wedding dreams and happy endings of your real life fairy-tales! The ivory bookcloth on the Ever After Coverset features a gold and silver swirl, creating a white gold appearance. Album pages are sold separately and Persona imprinting is only available on the spine.

Frosted Splits, $5.75

When we introduced Clear Photo Splits last year, you had a beautiful way of attaching vellum to white album pages. Unfortunately, if you were using clear photo splits with vellum on other colored pages, they weren't very clear. To address that problem, we now offer Frosted Splits, which can be used on ANY color album page and are nearly invisible!

Bubble Maker, $20

From sending the newlyweds off amidst a flurry of bubbles to a baby's first bubble bath, the new Bubble Maker breathes a little extra life into your pages! This is the first of our Shape Makers that's designed to focus on the "negative" image left after the cut, rather than using the paper shape that's cut out. Our Bubble Make features:

• One 1 1/2" block bubble pattern of random bubbles (which can also be used with the Square Maker)
• A bubble border pattern that can be used as an individual cutoff or to create a continuous border.
• Side paper insertion (similar to the Micro Makers), making it easy for users to keep sliding their paper to make a continuous pattern for a border.
• Translucent tinted buttons that have the bubble design texture on each button, making it easier to identify which shape is generated.

Memorabilia Pockets, $5

Brides want to remember special pieces of the wedding day and now they can! The Memorabilia Pockets come in three sizes, are made of clear polypropylene and feature photo-safe adhesive.

The three sizes hold a variety of memorabilia items like snippets of fabric used in a wedding, dried flower petals, notes/letters and small newspaper clippings and more! The adhesive is already aplied to the back of the pocket and the adhesive flap will keep your special items safe inside the pocket. This pack contains:
