I had so much fun creating this mini-album for my mother-in-law. I loved it so much, I almost wanted to keep it in the end. Rest assured, I did send it off to my MIL. 🙂 Check out my Mini Album Gallery for photos of this album (and others). I did get my husband’s opinion […]
The other day, I sat down to just play with some of my media supplies, and I thought it would be fun to create some cards. For most of the cards I did some variation of inking a background panel and then used some modeling paste through a stencil over the background. I kept everything […]
My earlier post featuring the encouragement cards I made using the Spellbinder’s Card Kit of the Month – Hang With Me showcased my first project using a Spellbinders card kit. At the time, I reserved judgment on the Spellbinder’s card kits until I had a chance to use it for more projects. This is my […]
When I saw the Graphic 45 Ladies Diary Deluxe Collector’s Edition paper pack, I knew I had to make a mini album for my mom. She used to sew for a wedding dress designer, and the illustrations of these gorgeous women in all their different style dresses reminds me of the dress patterns my mom […]
I dived into this kit and I love it! In my earlier blog post with the comparison table of monthly card kits, I mentioned I was going to buy some kits and try them before subscribing. That’s just what I’ve done and now I have a LOT of card kits. 🙂 Most — maybe all […]
Father’s Day is coming up and I’m happy to say that I’m on top of it this year! My video below is a showcase and not a full make. I only needed to make 3 cards, so I didn’t do a FLIP but rather just went wherever inspiration took me. 🙂 I did personalize these […]
Since my original posts where I compared monthly card kit “specs”, I’ve purchased several kits. I haven’t subscribed to any, but I’ve been on the lookout for when these kits go on sale so I can snag a couple… well, I’ve snagged more than just a couple. Here’s what I’ve purchased (my shop has photos […]
If you’re looking for a quick gift idea, this Trinket Box mini album comes together very quickly and is a great gift for all ages. Below is my showcase video, which walks through the mini album pages and afterwards I show you all the supplies I used – except I forgot to mention the Love […]
This time of year is super busy for me… it feels like Christmas what with all the gifts, cards, etc. I send out. May is Mother’s day plus 5 birthdays. June is Father’s day plus another 5 birthdays. This year, I’ve gotten into mini albums, so I’m making several to send to family and friends. […]
I ordered this awesome die set from CraftStash a while ago and it finally arrived! I had to dive in and make a mini album straightaway. This set is one of many die sets in Tonic Studio’s Memory Book series. There are actually three different Keepsake Insert sets. I only have the Book of Special […]
