I’ve just been watching Nicole Jones 911 on you tube putting together page kits for a crop-
(I’m simultaneously watching the AFL preliminary final and it’s turning into a one sided massacre so I need something else to do ..🤣🤣🤣)
Anyway- I swear every kit she has done so far has 3 or 4 chatterbox scrapbook walls papers!
I had a bit of a nostalgia moment for these- I recall having quite a bit back in the day.
In retrospect the paper was quite thin and a bit shiny so hard to journal on but I remember loving the coordinated patterns .
What oldie but goodie has caught your eye recently?

I loved Chatterbox stuff so much...and I still have some I'm hoarding! I have been thinking of actually using some of my stash of early Basic Grey sets and some KI Memories papers. I miss the heyday of scrapbooking when there was SO MUCH to pick from!

I have a couple of sheets of Chatterbox wallpaper and Basic Grey left, too. Can't bear to part with it. Some Autumn Leaves paper, too.

Oh I loved Chatterbox and still have some left. I haven't used it in years, but can't part with it either.

I don't have much Chatterbox, but I have been using my Basic Grey and my Sassafras! I have not been able to touch my October Afternoon.

I just used some K & Company/Brenda Walton Christmas paper to make gift card holders. I also used a sheet of Martha Stewart glitter Christmas paper. Both sheets came from paper pads that are many years old, and I still love them. I even have the coordinating embellishments, stickers, and ribbon that I'll be using to decorate the gift card holders!

Aw, I haven't watched Nicole Jones 911 in years. She has such a soothing voice. Thanks for the reminder to check her videos back out again!

If her voice is anything like Heba from My Little Journal on YouTube I will for sure add Nicole to my watchlist! ETA: Just watched one of her videos and she does have a nice voice.

I’ve been back in love with basicgrey and cosmo cricket lately. Like michellegb I’ve been missing the heyday of scrapping when I felt like we had more choice that is definitely missing in the ac owns nearly everything world we currently live in.

I’m going upstairs and spend some time gazing at my “golden oldies”.
I recently used Basic Grey Indian Summer(?) Their designs really stand the test of time.

I LOVED Chatterbox and had to buy it ALL! I loved the way it felt too. Unfortunately, it was not anywhere near my “style” so I never used any of it. I’ve started to admit that I had a scrapbook supplies shopping addiction back in the day!

I  paper, so flip through all of it often & regularly incorporate vintage Chatterbox, KI Memories, & October Afternoon in my layouts. They're classic patterns in usable color palettes for me. I also have supplies from other defunct manufacturers (e.g. Jenni Bowlin, Basic Grey, SEI, Sassafrass Lass, Cosmo Cricket, Little Yellow Bicycle, Artic Frog, & many more) that I use on occasion. It doesn't matter to me whether paper & embellishments in my inventory were manufactured last month or last decade; I like it all, so I use whatever works to tell my story. |

I pulled out some Cosmo Cricket today, but then chose some KaiserCraft instead. That CC just might make it onto a page in the next few days. I had forgotten how much I loved it. |

Some of their prints were just adorable, and I find so many of their patterns work so well with my travel photos. |

I love watching Nicole Jones - and yes, she has the best voice!! I like to watch her videos right before I go to sleep as she relaxes me LOL!!
This past week I dug out some old Basic Grey Archaic and Lime Rickey and used it on 2 layouts. I have been hoarding Basic Grey so I still have quite a bit.
I also have I think 2 pads of Chatterbox Walls....I'm not sure when I'll use them as I don't really think I care for the colors but I'd like to find something to use them on!
I love digging out the old collections...so many great companies that are missed!!

I have SO MUCH Chatterbox. I loved the texture and the patterns, and collected it all back in the day, but used surprisingly little of it. I will have to check out the videos to see if I can get some inspiration to work it in with some of my more current supplies. It would give me great joy to actually use some up.

I have so much old paper. I have no idea who made it all, nor where I bought it.
It is why I seldom enter contests, because you have to mention each product used.

I recently scored a bunch of October Afternoon on some website that was getting rid of whatever they had left. I totally splurged and bought up a ton. I never do that. Chatterbox I have a good amount... not tons and tons but enough to make lots of layouts. I miss those 2 companies!

I have a hoarders amount of basic grey. I really miss this company. I have the Indian Summer collection and it is one of my favorites.

I pull it out and look at it every once in a while, but it completely challenges me to use it. I'll have to check out the Nicole Jones video, I've never watched her before. |
