Caleb Hayhoe, Creative Memories new owner


Who is Caleb, you ask?

Caleb goes way back...Caleb Hayhoe's product design and sourcing company provided tools for CM's product line back in the 90's.  Caleb fell in love with the Creative Memories mission and commitment to quality. Over the years Caleb attended many Creative Memories Showcase National Conventions, workshops and parties. 

Fast forward to the financial challenges faced by Creative Memories and Ahni &Zoe, Caleb knew how much passion still existed for the brands and their products. So when the company came up for sale, he was convinced that CM could be renewed with the right business model. 

Caleb is now the proud owner of both brands (CM and Ahni&Zoe) and the proprietary manufacturing and testing equipment. Did you know that CM is also in Japan? The albums and refill pages are Made in the USA but exported to Japan where the CM business is thriving (Caleb purchased CM Japan as well).

The products, equipment and brands are the same, but this is truly a new business with a new owner. It's well-backed financially, debt-free and relocated into a smaller facility in St Cloud, Minnesota, U.S.A. 

We are no longer a party-plan business but an affiliate business where customers can purchase products directly through my website link OR they can sign up as Advisors themselves with no minimums and no quotas - just an opportunity to share their personal CM website link and receive commission based on sales through their unique link.  

As for me, I'm super thrilled that Caleb "gets it" and has brought back the beloved Creative Memories Bookcloth Coversets and plain Refill Pages (including Page Protectors and clear Pocket Pages) as well as the predecorated Fast2Fab albums that many of us have come to LOVE for their quickness and beauty.

Thank you for believing in the Creative Memories quality and brand!!

Creative Memories continues to improve our Advisor links. Now you will see my photo when you shop with me. This will ensure you are using an Advisor's link and will ensure that you are shopping with the Advisor of your choice!  I appreciate your business sooo much! 

It is exciting to have scrapbookers from all over the country using me as their CM Advisor! With over 20 years experience using Creative Memories supplies and enjoying my own completed family albums, it is truly a joy and a privilege serving you and helping you with your precious photos and memory preservation.

This Saturday I will be hosting a local Workshop. I'll post some photos so if you want to "virtually" scrapbook with us, I would love to have you check in and report your progress, share your ideas, etc... You can join us on my Facebook page:
