About

Amerikiss, Chandler, AZ

Individually created & owned, Amerikiss exists to bring joy to others through the creation of custom & inspired scrapbook artistry gifts. Whether by doing or making, when you give of yourself or a simple gift, you are giving joy and spreading love--so true is the Amerikiss motto to simply give is the sweetest gift.

Custom Amerikiss gifts include scrapbook memory albums and shadowboxes of various sizes, styles and themes--each individually created using YOUR photos and memorabilia. YOU are my inspiration so nothing is prefabricated and no predesigned page kits are used--but instead each custom Amerikiss gift is designed and created specifically for YOU. And whether it takes 30 minutes or 3 hours, a free consultation is necessary to sort through your mementos and discuss design options and details. All Amerikiss custom creations are guaranteed -- if you do not like your masterpiece, I will recreate it for FREE or provide a refund!

          Albums -- Available in four sizes (6X6, 8X8, 8.5X11, 12X12) -- 10 or 20 page album packages that include ALL materials and creation time -- with or without hand crocheted protective cases. Unused pages may be saved to add at a later date to the same album. Ten page Expansion Packages are also available which may be applied or saved to add to ANY album.

          Shadowboxes -- Available in two sizes (8X8 - up to 1/2" deep, 12x12 - up to 3/4" deep) -- black or white (decorated frame for 8x8 Elegant design) - Simple or Elegant designs

          Memorial Display Cases for cremated remains (Available only with 100 miles of zip code 85249) -- Honor your loved one (human or pet) with a final resting space all their own and be reminded not so much that they are gone, but that they were here and that they lived. Amerikiss Signature Memorial Display Cases not only encase the earthly remains, but full encompass and embody the spirit and essence of your loved one so that you may remember the fullness of their life instead of the emptiness of their death. The cardboard box with the family member's ashes is required for creation as it will be wrapped in safe acid free decorative scrapbook paper then permanently adhered to the base of the case to prevent fallover catastrophes. He or she is, after all, the center piece of this memorial. In addition to the box of cremated remains, 5-7 photos are necessary and memorabilia is suggested.

 

Inspired Amerikiss creations include one of a kind scrap canvas art and poetry collage prints which are inspirations unto themselves...

          Scrap Canvas Art -- Inspired to use the paper scraps left over from the custom creations which are used to scrap onto art canvases of various sizes, some are magnets and others are big enough to peel and stick your own photo. Custom Collections are available and encouraged! Each is ONE OF A KIND.

          Poetry Collage Art -- Created to spread messages of peace and inspiration through artful collages of magazine scraps laid out and read as visual forms of poetry. Current themes available are "Gratitude", "Lend A Helping Hand" and "Vision" professionally printed in various sizes. Please inquire.

10% of all Amerikiss gift sales are donated to the nonprofit Notes for Knights to assist in bringing hand written notes of gratitude to our older forgotten generations of veterans both in and out of hospitals across the country.
