Baby Mini Album Share

This is just a little book I whipped up from some scraps and other odds & ends laying around for a friend of mine when he had his first baby.
I really just enjoy dumping my bin out & digging through stuff to find what I want to put in each book instead of always using stuff that is meant to go together.  Hope you enjoy!

Mini Book - Baby

This is just a quick little album I whipped up for a colleague of mine awhile back.  Lots of fun little stuff & used up goodies from my stash – everything from Making Memories, Bazzill Basics, DCWV, Prima & so many things in between.  Thanks for looking & enjoy!

Altered CD - Quick Teacher's Gift

I’ve made of of these, I think for each teacher my boys have had so far.  This was Zach’s kindergarten teacher.  Can’t say enough good things about her, she is just one very special lady.  This is just an old CD, some patterned paper scraps and some fun embellishments to dress it up.  I hot glued a couple of magnets on the back, and so she can hang it on her whiteboard, refrigerator, or where ever.

Friends Card Share


Image001

Just a very simple, quick card made from scraps, and a chipboard flower.  I inked it with chalk ink so there is a small bit of sheen on it.  Fits inside a CD envelope – great way to use up all the “junk” we accumulate….  Enjoy!
Paper is Chatterbox & Cardstock is Bazzill Basics.

Love Card Share

These are just quick, easy cards that are so cute!  I think I spent more time sanding than anything else.  Cardstock is Bazzill Basics, Paper is Chatterbox.  It’s also a really great way to use up all of those extra Us you get… ;)

Happy Birthday Cards

These are all made using Crate paper & Bazzill Cardstock.  They are sized to fit in a CD envelope & have the pretty part show through the front. I’m sure postmen get tired of delivering junkmail too.  Why not send something that would bring a smile to their face too?

Image001

I used a super giga mega punch (3”) for the circle, hand drew the scallop.  Rubon is basic grey I believe, with a  Dymo label.

Image002

Fiskars punch on top & bottom, MME letter stickers, rubons are Gen-X.

Image003

Fiskars punch again on the top, hand drawn arrow & brackets with ink.  I used an old gift card for the middle.

Image004

Small circle punch (I’m sure I used my trusty ole Whale of a Punch), not sure who the stamp is.  Gen-X rubons again.

Image005

Very simple here, just a MAMBI Threads.

Image006

This one also very simple, punch for the candle, the stem is handcut.  Basic Grey rubon.

Image007

This time just a Making Memories embroidered patch

Image008

Basic Grey rubons with square punch. Probably used my Creative Memories dual square punch.

Image009

Back to the Ginormous 3” circle punch, a bit of ink, and a basic grey rubon.

7Gypsies sticker, with another Basic Grey rubon.

Mini Album Share - For Libby

This is a mini-album that I did for my late mom-in-law for her first great-grandchild.  Just so many fun, girly things here.  Black ribbon is from those “hanging” straps off of an old blouse of mine.  Love the flower hanging from the ribbon too.  Chip Chatter, Provo Craft, Bazzil Basics, Making Memories, Dymo, 7Gypsies, Paper Studio, Creative Imaginations, Junkitz, just loads of stuff.  Njoy!

Campground Mini Album

This is a book I made about our summer at the campgrounds. So many different things used here, lots of media too, paint, modeling paste, as well as the usual.  I’m not going to list it all, but if you have questions, just comment.  This was also my first real foray into using different sized/shaped pages too & it was a lot of fun.
