Basic Grey Capture Album: Paper Maps

With GPS devices and map apps on our phones, who needs paper maps right?  Well, I got these Las Vegas maps from AAA anyway because as a paper crafter of course I thought, "I can do something with these".  


When I was trying to decide what I wanted to do for my cover page in my Las Vegas album, I thought the maps would be perfect!  I'm using a Basic Grey Capture album for this.  I grabbed the first page divider in the album and traced it onto the map.  


For this page I used a map with the general Las Vegas area.  I centered the page divider so that "Las Vegas". Would be centered on the page.  I added a geotag chipboard piece above Las Vegas and my cover page was done!


For the back side of the page divider, I decided to use a map of the Vegas Strip area.  For this map, I used geotag chipboard pieces for every hotel that we visited as well as for the convention center where the CHA show was held.


This was so simple and I love how it tuned out!  I'll be posting my entire album soon!

Summer CHA Conference - Basic Grey Booth

My first stop at the show was the Basic Grey booth. I've fallen in love with their Capture line and had to go see all their new products in person!








All the Capture products will be coming to the shop soon!  The new RSVP, Persimmon and 25th and Pine 6x6 paper pads and embellishments will be coming to the shop as well!  


We made this Capture Make and Take at the booth with Ann-Marie Morris.  We used the new Attach Me Stickers that you can use to include pamphlets, photos and other items into your albums without using page protectors or gluing them down:


I love their new calendar stamp!  


A few of the new papers:


Love this card:


They had a cute little photo booth setup! 


Ann-Marie was so sweet!  I love her blog!


My crafting buddies Kerry, Jossie and Corinne!

Basic Grey Capture


I LOVE the new Basic Grey Carte Postale and Capture lines.  I went on a little shopping spree last week to make an album for my upcoming trip to Las Vegas for the Summer CHA show.  Here's what I did for my cover!


I'm hoping they release new products for the capture line during CHA, I would love to carry this line in my shop!
