This month we celebrate family heritage with a "Tapestry of Love." Documentary our family heritage and the things that make a family unique is one of the special privileges of the scrapbook hobbyist. This month's kit uses softly textured heritage colored backgrounds and tempers them with a splash of fun contemporary color to allow you to scrap your "heritage" photos; whether those photos are beautiful old photos of your grandparents when they were young or darling new photos of your own children. This is a great kit to use to record your family heritage. The kit includes 19 12x12 .jpeg backgrounds, over 50 coordinating elements, a set of clustered frames and word art and a complete alpha set. Guild kits are a benefit of Guild membership.
Guild Membership also includes the monthly online magazine The Artisan Notebook. Here is a look at this month's issue:

The September issue of the Artisan Notebook focuses in on fashion, and all things "homes & gardens." The September Guild kit was inspired by the Romance of the Great American West, where the fashion of choice is denim and homes & gardens are a celebration of the great outdoors; expansive skies, endless prairies and wildflowers that cloak their strength with a veil of fragility. The kit includes 10 earth-toned textured backgrounds in both card-stock and tapestry versions. The element set includes more than 60 coordinating elements, 3 sets of layered, blocked templates, a rugged, Western-style alpha softened with sweet polka dots and four Ready-made (tm) layouts.
