NEW! On the Bright Side Album Kit & Collection!

Advisors, the On the Bright Side Album Kit that's available starting today is the kit you'll want to welcome beginners into the world of scrapbooking!

Created in collaboration with Amy Tangerine, it's the first of several Album Kits launching this year — and it's designed to make getting started simple, fun and totally stress-free. Whether you're hosting a Beginner Class or welcoming someone new at an Open House, this kit will be your go-to. It includes everything needed to complete a full 12x12 album with guided ease — no design experience required.

Even better? The kit is a better value than purchasing the items separately — making it an easy “yes” for new crafters and a smart addition to your event table.

Want more to match? The On the Bright Side collection and Buy-It-All Bundle with complementing tools are also available! With bold colours, painterly textures and Amy’s signature hand lettering, this collection is made to celebrate creativity in full colour.

Beginner Class “Win” Spotlight


We want to celebrate with you! To partake in the Beginner Class “Win” Challenge, post a photo of your Beginner Class, and let us know what your “win” was for that event, including the hashtag #BeginnerClassWin in the
CM Achievements Planning Group on Facebook. We will pick 3 winners each month who will receive that quarter's Simple Page Kit Bundle.

Decided to jump right in for 2026 and hosted my first Beginner Scrap Journal Class on Jan 2. I had a few cancellations but ended up with six in person and five virtual attendees with four new to me. It was such a fun, easy-going night and we all got our journals started. I offered the class for $10 but if they purchased the 2026 journal bundle from me then they could attend the monthly class free for the year. In-person worked great and we all shared different ideas of how we were going to use and decorate our journals. It was difficult hosting virtual at same time as in-person, so I think I might have to rethink that part of it and possibly cut the virtual or offer that on a separate day. Happy with results from the first event and the ladies all want to come back next month.”
