🌺 Botanical Beauty 🌺 || Album #1 of the 7-11 Folio Album Series

      I am so extremely excited about this book!! It was an idea that kept me up at night and when I finally got to work on it, nothing went as planned!! I had to set it aside and work on something else for a bit but when I started on it again... well... I think its pretty awesome! 😊

     I've called it Botanical Beauty because the flowery paper is simply stunning and there are such beautiful flowers in the 2 collections, Vintage Cottage Field and Vintage Garden District. The Simple Stories Vintage line is one of my favorite papers to work with!! 

     I really don't like to do small projects, the smallest projects I do are my 2 Day Folios which are 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" with at least a 1" spine... this one is basically designed the same way the others are but is 7" x 11" which is how I named the series. I have ideas for a couple more projects for sure but will see how they pan out! This one fought me a little so we will see how fast the other projects come together. That and I have an other Series in the works as well... the Mix & Match Albums are also in the works so I have to get my butt in gear and get working on those! So many projects on the go and so little time to work on them!! So glad I am taking holidays and will be off for 10 glorious fun filled days and can do nothing but try to catch up!

Decorate with these simple Domino Ornaments! They are very easy! All you need is a set of dominos, Jet Black Stazon Ink (#101406), Sharpie markers, some Crystal Effects (#101055) & stamps that will fit on the domino! Some of the images are not Stampin' Up! but most of them are. The sets from Stampin' Up! are Best of Snow & Polar Party so far. I also used some Stickles for the snow and glitter on some images.

Fancy Fold Card

Image
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 coarse it was in her language and i

Recipe Book Box

Image
      So it seems August is Blog catch up month for me! I get crafting and forget to do the little things that I like to do to keep my fans updated!! My apologies!!  A look at 1 Recipe Page or Insert      This was supposed to be another Cinch Book but it seems I got a little carried away... AGAIN! I made it a few paged too big so it got WAY to chunky to be bound! So... I am going to make a box to house it and a couple extra inserts and recipe cards.       I made 6 pages or inserts now and each one has spots for 26 recipe cards, 4 of which are digitally added with the digital collection I used. The Grandma's Pantry Collection my Nitwit Collections. If you choose to make the project as I did, you will have a recipe box that will hold at least 154 special recipes.       I have a few ideas rolling around in my head for the box part of this project so hopefully I can get at it soon so I can post it. I'm certain I will like how it turns out in the end 😊      I have kept a few spots
