Creating Keepsakes - Deadline Monday July 27!!!!

Call for Holiday Family Photos We're looking for photo submissions for the December issue of CK "Through the Lens." Our topic is "Not Your Ordinary Family Photos."
We'd like to see group photos that people might use for holiday cards, or photos they might take at a holiday gathering, that are more than just a lineup in front of the tree. It is crucial that these are NOT highly technical, but something accessible for our core reader who isn't a pro shutterbug. Think in terms of interesting poses, settings, props, angles, lighting, etc.

Gifts From The Heart
Have you created an amazing piece of memory art for your best friend? Or maybe a sweet keepsake for your new niece or a special heritage Christmas ornament for Uncle Max? We’re looking for new ideas and artistic offerings that translate into beautiful memories as handcrafted gifts for friends and family. Please send us your mixed-media special gifts from the heart for publication consideration. For information on submitting your artwork, please see the Submission Guidelines, and be sure to note clearly “Somerset Memories Gifts from the Heart” in your submission. Deadline for artwork to be received: November 15th for April issue.
Artful Journals
Journaling has always been a fabulous way to chronicle your feelings, your everyday musings, and your hopes and dreams. Here at Somerset Memories we think that journaling in an artful way can become a fabulous kind of memory art to cherish for years to come. Perhaps you’ve made pages in your journal that focus on the birth of your daughter, the graduation of your son, your feelings on being chosen for teaching a workshop, or a difficult time you went through. We’re looking for artistically created art journals that are destined to become keepsakes. For information on submitting your artwork, please see the Submission Guidelines, and be sure to note clearly “Somerset Memories Artful Journals” in your submission. Deadline for artwork to be received: November 15th for April issue.
Memories in Moments
Share a heritage/memory art project that can be completed in 20 minutes or less! In the increasing rush and complexity of everyday life, not everyone has time to spend hours upon hours creating beautiful art (though we’d all love to in a perfect world). However, we know that beautiful heritage/memory art can be created in a few precious moments, and we’d love to gather your innovative ideas and inspire readers to preserve their precious memories in those little pockets of time (20 minutes or less) as they arise. For information on submitting your artwork, please see the Submission Guidelines, and be sure to note clearly “Memories in Moments” in your submission. Deadline for artwork to be received: On-going.
Go digital
If you have created computer-generated scrapbook pages, simply e-mail low resolution scans (72 dpi) of your pages to us at: memoriessubmissions@stampington.com. If we choose your page, we'll contact you via e-mail for the high-resolution image. Deadline for artwork to be received: On-going.
Show Your True Self – Tattoos and All
Scrapbook pages often depict seemingly perfect people – adorable infants, angelic children who never throw a tantrum, and dreamy, air-brushed self-portraits. Then there’s the heartwarming journaling recounting baby’s first tooth, a first day of school, a wedding. While it’s important to preserve such happy moments, it’s also the dark and difficult days, the somber thoughts and serious reflection that can make for compelling pages. We invite you to create your own scrapbook pages that look at life honestly, that are unafraid to share the negative feelings as well as the positive ones, and that offer a self-portrait that’s true to oneself and one’s view of reality rather than an idealized picture. There’s no formula, no single style, no one way to create these pages. We’ll publish as many of your pages as we can in upcoming issues. Deadline for artwork to be received: On-going.
