My 8-year-old Som, Wyatt, made a scrapbook for his art fair…
and won First Place. 🏆🥹
He filled it with photos he took — our family, his stuffies, the little pieces of his world that matter most to him.
He followed the ‘Little Gem’ tutorial for the base, but every single paper, sticker, and embellishment was his choice. His vision. His story.
His Father and I are so proud we could burst. 💛
Not sure who needs to hear this, but I started marking my lines on both sides of the ruler so I can make a straight line! Because I’m terrible at eyeballing straight lines 🥲hope this makes sense and helps you too!
You all have completely enriched my life. My words can’t even express how much I care about each one of you. I’m still reminiscing, smiling to myself about our day, replaying it in my mind, over-and-over again. Thank you for everything you did to bring us all together. I’m still so excited. I even started planning the next one. I’m so glad that we got more time to spend with each other and we even finished our books enough to show off our front covers! Big hugs to you all. I cannot wait for the next one!

I really wished I could have been at the class!!!! I watched the video a few times and did my best to match it.
Next time I am there!
The cover paper is absolutely stunning and I did not capture how pretty it is. The cacti are orange foil.
The floral pages have a sheen on them. All from HL.
***The parents that received this book LOVED it. I’m so happy to have read those words from them!!***
This book took me so long to make. Not the actual book base, I make it a lot. My customer asked for a flamingo baby book for her new baby girl but I couldn’t find a coordinating flamingo paper pack to create it. It took a while to find just the right digital files for papers and clipart. I’m really happy with the final results and I’m sure she’ll love it.
While cleaning up, I noticed somebody forgot to take home a piece of confetti. I’m sure it must be important, so please let us know if it is yours, and I will mail it to you promptly😄
Great event yesterday! Every single little detail was amazing! Frances: you and Shayne are the best hosts ever!😍. This is my finished book. I love it. It was awesome to meet everyone that came. In all a GREAT DAY!!
Cont… I changed the inside to fix what my cousin she wanted to put in them.
I just finished the Maria Memory Box for a cousin, I used Mibtay Papers School Days. I bought the school years off Etsy. Thank you Maria & Frances for such a fun project.
