What’s Happening Now

  • Join the CM Collective, your NEW online Advisor Community! Made exclusively for Creative Memories Advisors, it’s going to be your new favourite place to connect, learn and grow. Join Today!
  • Select limited-edition 12x12 album covers are EXTENDED while supplies last: Deep Orchid, Dusted Sage, Bubblegum Pink, Lavender Dust, Sunburst Yellow and Vivid Blue. Note: Pearl and Caramel will NOT be extended.
  • Quarterly Craft Tote Spend/Get Promo: Spend $179+ in the Craft Tote Qualifiers category under Deals on the website and get the exclusive Craft Tote - Eternal Blue FREE. Available while supplies last.

What’s Coming Up

  • NEW Album Kits launching Tuesday at 5am AEDT: Natural Beginnings (Ebony and Caramel foiled, Pearl solid bookcloth) — the second of several Album Kits to be released in 2026 — designed for any skill level to “scrapbook without the stress.”
  • Products launching Tuesday at 5am AEDT: Natural Beginnings collection + Buy-It-All Bundle; Sunrise Scallop BMC; Secret Box #1; Simple Page Kit #2 - Your Own Way.
  • Secret Box #1 label update: Some of the Secret Box #1 kits are labeled “Do Not Open Until the January Virtual Crop!” This is incorrect — please wait to open until the February Virtual Crop, which kicks off Saturday, 14 Feb. These boxes are shrink-wrapped, so we will not be relabeling them. We’re notifying you now, and customers purchasing directly from the website will receive an email with the correct “Do Not Open Until February” messaging.
  • The January Completed Album Challenge kicks off on Tuesday in the Virtual Crop Group. Not a member? Join today.

What to Plan For

  • NSD Advisor-Only Launch Party: Join Alison and the Home Office team on 30 Jan. at midday AEDT for the full reveal of everything coming for the 2026 National Scrapbook Day season. RSVP here!

Sneak Peek What's Launching Tuesday
— Includes the 2nd Album Kit of 2026 & Secret Box #1!

Advisors, you are NOT going to want to miss today’s sneak peek of everything that’s launching Tuesday!

First up, Secret Box #1 is coming — packed with exclusive products in a highly requested theme (hint: there’s also a Border & Frame Punch in every 2026 Secret Box) — it’ll be a surprise worth opening together during the February Virtual Crop!

Then, a NEW beautifully calm and neutral collection — Natural Beginnings — that your customers will love for scrapbooking any (and every!) story, complete with the newest Album Kit, which you’ll want for your Beginner Classes.

And, of course, Simple Page Kit #2 - Your Own Way will open to customers on Tuesday.

Catch it all on the Launch Preview page, and scroll down for WHY you and your customers will love Tuesday’s launch!

Why We Made This

If you’ve ever struggled with sharing upcoming launches with your customers, this is for YOU! Let’s dive into WHY you and your customers are going to want (and maybe need!) the next round of products.

Secret Box #1
“It’s a surprise worth opening together!”

Why your customers will want it:

  • It’s truly exclusive. Everything inside the box is something they can’t buy separately — including a brand-new Border & Frame Punch only available in 2026 Secret Boxes.
  • It's a community experience. Opening it during the Virtual Crop gives customers a fun, shared experience.
  • It's a smart “yes.” With 10% off the total value inside, it’s exciting without feeling risky.
  • It’s part of a collectible series. Buying Boxes #1–4 is what unlocks the option to purchase Secret Box #5 later in the year!

As an Advisor, Your “why”:

  • Gives you something easy to talk about. Curiosity does the heavy lifting — you’re just inviting customers in.
  • Creates a connection with customers. The shared unboxing gives you a reason to gather customers, not just take orders.
  • Builds momentum. It’s part of a series that keeps customers engaged with you throughout the year.
  • It’s an easier “yes.” Built-in value and exclusivity lower resistance.

Natural Beginnings Album Kit
“An easy, complete way to finally finish an album — no overwhelm, no design skills required.”

Why your customers will want it:

  • It’s the simplest way to start and finish an album. No experience needed - just add photos.
  • Everything is coordinated and guided. There’s no guesswork or overwhelm.
  • Works for any story. Neutral designs are great for any theme — baby, pets, travel, remembrance, everyday.

As an Advisor, Your “why”:

  • It’s beginner-friendly in a real way. It helps people realise, “I can actually do this.”
  • It’s straightforward to teach. You’re guiding the process, not fixing design decisions.
  • It reduces overwhelm. Customers feel supported right from the start.
  • It fits for any story. One kit works for many situations, so it’s easy to recommend naturally.
