The Merriest of Christmases...

...From our family, to yours. 

We'll leave you with a dash of Christmas inspiration for the holiday thanks to Designer Gerry van Gent & our Royal Christmas collection:

Have a blessed & beautiful Christmas!

From your friends at Webster's Pages

Our Christmas Wish For You...

As you settle into celebrating, our wish is that you find the magic of the season waiting for you in each quiet moment this Christmas. 

Good friends, family, memories in the making and the ability to pause and enjoy it all. 

Today, we get to share a bit of Christmas inspiration thanks to Designer Jaz Lee...

Her use of the Royal Christmas line is stunning, and captures that magic we hope you find this week and all year round. 

From intricate details to fussy cut layers, this little project is a work of art that captures the beauty of her ballerina...a perfect moment in time. 

We hope this Christmas you're able to stop and find those moments you want to capture...and we wish you a very blessed holiday.

In Case You Missed it Monday {Wonderfall is 20% off!}

With every collection we release, we're sure we have a new favorite, but the truth is, these lines are a lot like children...we love them ALL {and for different reasons.} And when we love something, we have to share it...which is why we're thrilled that TODAY ONLY, one of our favorite collections is 20% off! 

Wonderfall is the perfect line to take us into Autumn, so we are thrilled to offer it to you at this very special rate... in case you missed it.

In Case You Missed it Monday {Game On is 20% off!}

For us, the whole month of September screams "back to school" and "back to school" screams all kinds of sporty, game-like fun for the kids. From Homecoming to soccer to first days of school, this is the month that makes us want to whip out our Game On collection and start creating! 

And we want you to do the same, so today we've got a VERY special deal for you...

But first...Look at this beauty from Designer Jaz Lee:

Notice how Jaz changed up our "Keep Calm and Scrap On" cameo here, covering the word "Scrap" with a little cut-out that says "Play." Such a creative way to incorporate some of our newest collection elements into a layout using primarily an older line. 

Game On is such a versatile collection, it's easy to find tons of different uses for it...which is why we're offering you a VERY special deal for ONE DAY ONLY! 

To help you celebrate Back to School (and all that entails), we're offering everything in the Game On Collection at 20% off for 24 hours ONLY! That means you have from Midnight on Sunday night till Midnight on Monday night to take advantage of this sensational deal. 

So if you're looking for the PERFECT line for boys, sports, games or school layouts...look no further...and at 20% off, you can't go wrong! Click HERE (or on any of the images below) to start shopping!

Back From CHA...{& filled to overflowing}

In a business like ours, there is little that makes us happier than meeting our friends {like you} face to face. This past week, we headed out to Chicago for the Craft and Hobby Association trade show where we could unveil our new collections. 

It was a week of sharing a little piece of ourselves and getting to be a part of something we feel is pretty amazing. It fills us up to be a part of this industry that's overflowing with so many beautiful, kind and generous people. 

The messages on our wall {both on Facebook and at the show} were the kind we want to keep in front of us always...

Because each one came from someone we feel is very special...

Overall, the show was a tremendous success. Of course, we were exhausted, but we pressed on with lots of this...

And while we didn't photograph it, the yummy dinners provided much needed R&R:

We met lots of customers:

Brandin did a few interviews:

And we got to hang out with a couple design team members:

So yes, you could say we're still floating on air after CHA...so filled with gratitude and so excited to start shipping our new lines out to you. 

Did you know you can already order everything RIGHT HERE on our website?

All week we'll share tons of inspiration from our new collections, so be sure to come back tomorrow, you don't want to miss it!

Pick-Me-Upper

you know...

sometimes you need a little pick-me-upper?

right?

I DO!

Ok...the real deal here.

Sick children - yep, got 'em.

Messy house - yep, got that one too.

No fresh food - check.

Tired momma - okeedokee, I think you know the answer based on the picture ;o)

This is the real deal folks. It's been one of those weeks. I need a little pick-me-upper.

I find when I need a little break, exhale, a little "me" time, I can recharge...even if it's 10 minutes.

Sometimes I just sit & be still.

Other times I cozy up to a cup of coffee & just observe (not act on) the things around me.

And tonight, I decided to go to our member gallery at InspireME to sit back & let the slide show do all the work for me & watch our member's beautiful stories told through scrapbooking & cardmaking. Some silly, some sad. Some playful, some serious.That was my release tonight. You should check it out if you haven't this week. Wow...a lot of many things struck chords with me tonight. Here are a few...

"Together Always" by Rosangela Philippsen just made me feel happy ♥

Melissa Elsner, was this card made for me tonight as I pull an all nighter with my little girl? {xo}

And then, Erin Blegen, your page spoke to me...Yep...this IS WHY I will be pulling an all nighter with my sick little girl ♥

And then...as I was about to wrap it up, I burst out laughing...Anabelle O'Malley, I'm sure you didn't intend on this reaction to your page but where else can you go to find inspiration on how to scrap a layout with a subject "Fun with a Box"? Right HERE at InspireME!

I love this Anabelle ♥ Now this is real life. Just like my post today!

what's on my desk right now? ~ ♥ Brandin

Spotlight on inspireME Member {Shell Carman}

Here at Webster's Pages, we have the most incredible community of paper crafters who inspire us on a daily basis. Maybe you're already a member over at InspireMe, but if not, we want to invite you to look around, check out the gallery, the forums and join us in sharing your Webster's Pages Creations. 

When we stroll through the gallery, there are always tons of layouts and projects that catch our eye, so today we want to feature one of them on our blog: 

"Tell Me Your Thoughts" by Shell Carman is just one of the many layouts that made us pause. Shell's beautiful use of our new Everyday Poetry line, combined with the perfect mix of doilies and flowers, is such an eye-catcher. 

We are more than inspired. Aren't you?

Head over to InspireMe and check out Shell's projects for yourself...perhaps you'll be inspired to create your own stunning creations. 

Shell, to thank you for your inspiration, we want to send you a collection kit of your choice...just because...email me at cwalsh{at}websterspages{dot}com and we'll get that right out to you!
