I was busy this weekend, crafting my little heart out. I finished one complete project and started another. For my first project I followed a blog tutorial by Tresa Black, aka The Stamping Goddess. Check out her blog and her You Tube channel for the 5 part tutorial (her link is to the right and is called Fabulously Artsy). She is a total kick and has great creative and fun idea's. This is my version of her mini album using the the CTMH three ring binder and the Lucky paper collection. The binder comes with 5 dividers which are used to make the different types of pages. They fit perfectly in the binder (not too bulky, but not flat either). I love this project and can't wait to make another with another paper collection. I have some great idea's for some different pocket pages! My pics uploaded out of order, but most all the pages are here (along with the cover).
My second project uses the You and Me paper pack. I just love this set and made another mini album. I took apart a policy envelope I had (the same size as a #10 business envelope but opens on the side instead of the top) and used it for a template. I then used three pages from the collection to make envelopes. I made a front and back cover out of heavy weight chip board, covered them with more paper from the collection, embellished and bound it with the cinch. I plan to add photo mats, photo's, some stamping and journaling to complete the project. You could add as many pages/envelopes as you wanted, and actually, I will be adding some single pages and tags as I go along. I'll post more pics when I am completely done.... only no guarantee when that will be! Enjoy the pics!
There you have it. One busy weekend of scrapping (well not including the 5 hour break on Saturday where we attended the end of the little league baseball season pool party in the rain)! You can get all of these same products from your local Close To My Heart consultant, or you can order from the link on this blog (to the right) or just call me if you are interested! I would be happy to host a workshop on the project or have you over for a day of scrapping!
