DIY Mini Album

     I had a great time in my craft room creating this beautiful DIY Mini Album! I can't however take all the credit as the inspiration I got was from a fellow Demonstrator from over seas. Her name is Karin Müller and her albums are stunning! She had posted a little video of all the albums she had done... 8 of them! 😲 You can see her video on her website and see just why I had to CASE from hers! From seeing them, I just loved them and wanted to do one of my own. I did a practice album that I just did with a bunch of Retired DSP that I had and hadn't used. This one is the first "matching" album I have done. I will definitely be doing more, they are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

 

     I pretty much used all Retired Products as I wasn't sure just how "nice" mine would turn out! 😅 I didn't want to waste a bunch of paper if it didn't work... thank goodness it did look good though... This album took almost 2 full packages of card stock and I was into the 3rd package of the Specialty Designer Series Paper... 😳 Thank goodness I horde and stock pile ones I like!

     If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

Fancy Fold Card

I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coa...

Christmas Cheer Gift Card Holder

     Last year I carried on my Mom's tradition of doing the 12 days of Christmas with my daughter. She had done it every year buy one since my daughter was about 2, I can't remember exactly when she started it... but I can't remember yesterday so... 😂 I decided instead of giving my 16 year old a bunch of stupid things she would likely never use and I would likely toss in the garbage before long, I would give her gift cards instead.  It was a great idea, it was a hit!      Her birthday is Boxing Day so we usually go shopping in the city seeing as it's still a pretty busy day for most families.  She was able to spend around $200-$250 in gift card money so it was all good!  I think doing it that way is a much better way of doing it, what do you think?      I thought I would get a head start on Gift Cards for this year as it is a great way to give a gift and still have the recipient have a choice in what to buy. I have a fe...
