October 2026 - Inspiration Kit Reveal and Social Media Hop

Hello October! It's me, Laurie,  I'm so excited to be your hostess this month as we take a look at a brand new inspiration kit and put our own creative spin on it. Let's take a look at the kit I've chosen. It's Simple Stories Pumpkins and Plaid. Click here for a better look.

 

Our Guest Designer for this month is Jennifer Cain. You may know her as ScrappinCain on YouTube and Instagram.

Hi my name is Jennifer Cain aka ScrappinCain. I have been scrapbooking for 25+ years. I live in Colorado with my two sons. Who are usually my scrapbook subjects. 

I enjoy using just about anything to show off my photos and tell my story. Masculine boy layouts are my favorite along with everyday type photos. I scrapbook 8 1/2x11 size, single layouts in portrait, landscape, and double page layouts. I use lots of different items in my scrapbooking. I love learning new techniques and finding new items to use.

My personal Instagram ScrappinCain with over 1k layouts created by me.
