I have never seen anything creative memories

One of the things that looks really cool is the paper albums. For $15 you can complete a 8 page 8 x 8 with paper embellishments etc. I saw some of the new paper at Showcase for Christmas and wow it will knock your sox off

I don't think you can slide whole pages in the big picfolios - I think they have pockets for photos and paces for fillers. I've not got one as I think it takes away the chance to "play", but I might get my mum one for Christmas as she's now got a digital camera and has actually taken and printed photos for the first time ever - my dad was always in charge of the camera as she tended to cut people's legs off (or heads ) She's not interested in scrapping but this might be a first step

 

[LisaB]

No you can I have the 8 x 8 and have seen the 12 x 12 and you can slip in whole pages even true 12 x 12. It is called picfolio max

 

[mantaz]

Yeah the new picfolio max is true 12x12. That way you can put 12x12 digital pages in there. The quick kits are 8x8. I can't wait for the xmas stuff. I want that new pink album that is coming. I am tired of all the shades of black albums and need more bright colors!

Just go to creativememories.com if you want to check out the new picfolios!

Thanks, y'all! Please keep us posted on these 12x12 picfolios. I'm hoping they come out with one that expands. That would be huge thing for me (and I'm sure a lot of people.)

TY!

I did the 8 x 8 family quick kit picfolio today for our babysitter. She went to the Cape with us during vacation and I wanted to give her an album of her trip and her first whale watch.

The album was quick, even with me being a perfectionist about cropping photos to be "just right". The album has twenty four pages and handled the highlights of vacation very nicely. Would I use that size for a yearly album? No, but then it usually takes me two 12 x 12 to handle a year of pictures anyway. However, for a special occasion, it's a great size and easy as pie to put together. Now I'm not sure I want to give it away.

I have their cornor rounder and also the cutting system for ovals and circles and all of my albums are CM. I've lost my consultant so now get refills and such off of ebay. I used their black pages to mount all my 8 by 10 wedding pictures. I wanted it to look like a professional photo album, not "scrapped" for those pictures. I was really happy how it came out. And MUCH cheaper than what the photographer wanted for basically the same thing.

You know you can order directly from almost any consultant without ever even talking to them, right? Go to the CM website and do a search on the consultant locator. Pick one that has a personal website. Click to go to that site. Then you can shop, order online, and it will all ship right to your door. The s&h is 7%, but that's often cheaper than I ended up paying to people on ebay!

Hope this helps!

Now you don't even have to find a consultant with a website. You can order through any consultant and just put in there name at check out on the CM website. Now it seems like the premium website is just going to be a way to always have your calendar up, since it is not needed to order! I like that option!

I have to say their albums are better than any around--

Other than that:
Personal Trimmer
Tape Runner

And I also like some of their papers.

I see this was edited from the message that I got in my email.

I do want to say that the opportunity to order without having to call the consultant in no way means that there aren't still plenty of reasons to have a "personal consultant." (I was one for 6 years... I get it)

I love going to group crops or calling when I have a question about a product. But I also LOVE that I can order what I want and need, when I want and need it, and not have to wait for my consultant to order and then wait more for her to get it to me.

Honestly, I tell all of my customers to go through my website! It goes directly to their door - it costs the same and I don't have to get in my gas guzzlin' minivan to deliver it

The CM stuff that I love:

Personal Trimmer
Custom Cutting System
Storybook Creator Plus
Albums - you can't beat the lifetime guarantee.

I love my cutting tools (although I haven't gotten the hang of the new CCS blades)
I also LOVE StorybookCreator Plus and Memory Manager
I love the albums, but I'm less and less fond of the pages.
