TUTORIAL: Learn how to frame your layouts with torn edges using a tearing tool with CM Advisor Saori Murakami.

Saori Murakami was first introduced to CM when she was pregnant with her son — he’s now 17 years old and Saori also has a 14-year-old daughter — and has been making albums since then. After 17 years, her very first albums are still in her living room and are in great condition. Her love of making albums has not changed and she loves the people she meets while doing so.


Collection Used: Seaside

Yuka Yamamoto first found out about CM when she was pregnant with her son — she wanted to document her family’s precious memories, photos and stories in albums. Her son is now three, and she’s currently working on her family’s eighth album. She looks forward to making many more albums.

Collection Used: Planes, Automobiles & Trains (Trains)

How clever to use every inch of the torn paper to complete this layout! Love it!
Do got how she did the white insert page but h
What were the measurements for the black 2 page layout? Get what I mean?
The torn off corners of the 12X12 paper she tore go in the four corners of the double page layout & then she used the torn rectangle in the center. I believe she flipped the rectangle and used the reverse side – all pieces are mounted on two black refill pages (or you could use any papers for your base. The torn corners created are two sizes so you may want to watch where you place them on your pages.
How did she make the wavy chains on each page? Is it a punch???
Yes it is the rope chain punch that is currently out of stock but is suppose to be back in stock.
.
Should have said rope chain BMC back in stock in December.
