I'm still working my way through all of the classes. This is the Flutter Folio. It came together faster than I thought it would. This may become a go-to. It packs a lot of pictures.

I added a shaker front. The star confetti is a little hard to see. I also did this to the front pocket.

The paper is from a friend. I think she said she got it on Temu(?). Cutting out all of the cute images took longer than putting the album together! ✂️

I chose this pumpkiny-burnt orange paper. If I had to do over again, perhaps a different color. Something lighter to make the prints pop more.

I'd 100% recommend making this one! So much fun.

I made my first album for a friend who was expecting two little girls. It was more work than expected. Do you need that long for an album? Overall, I think I sat on it for 30 hours 😳

I created this project using Frances Long’s 1st edition of her Kitchen collection and stickers from the 2nd edition. I added solid color cardstock because I do too much and I didn’t plan anything and I was running low on paper. I just go with the flow. I love the colors and designs of the paper collection and the fact that it’s handmade. I used Design Space to make my kitchen window for the front cover, and for my recipe cards…and to design my tags and cute butterflies and “Recipe Slayer!” I want to also mention that I don’t like cooking, but I LOVE crafting. I can cook, though.

My first full album is the Baby Girl Mini Album. I had a great time making this, the video was easy to follow and frankly soothing to listen to. 💜. I'll be branching out for the same album but my own designs. These will be perfect for my 2 granddaughters, 1 and 2 yo.

Update: I added some flowers and this jeweled garland stuff and feather thing I found at HL. It definitely finished the album. It's ready for to be gifted.

Finished this wedding book for a cute young couple I work with. I don't remember the name of the pattern. Francės Long will have to help me out. This holds a lot of pictures!

I think the paper is Echo Park.

It needs some flowers but I haven't had a chance to go to the store. Crazy hot outside!

🎉 It’s here! The Official Release of the YBM Kitchen Collection! 8 Designs + 6 Precut 4 x 6 Recipe Cards, 50+ Elements & Coordinating Cardstock Sticker Sheet. I really love how quality the sticker sheets are. I thought it would be great to add in precut recipe cards too! All designs are hand-watercolor painted by me ;) then printed & packed here in my home. If you wanted to get a pack you can do so here.

I hope you love it as much as I do!

I’ll be back with a new project using the newly added 4 designs, recipe cards and stickers!

So keep your eyes out for that ;)

Hello everyone! I am happy to share my completed 4–MINNI-SOTA Albums. I was quite ambitious making 4–but 3 are gifts for my NZ cousins—we are cruising Hawaii this coming September and I wanted us all to make a memory! 2 are nautical themed and 2 are Hawaii/ tropical theme. I hope you like them! Thank you Frances for providing us with this tutorial—I just love making your albums! ❤️

Hello! I hope you enjoy this video. Unfortunately I don’t recall which album this is (Frances help! 🙃). It was time consuming but relatively easy following the well done tutorials. I made it for my Mommy’s (once a Mommy always a Mommy) 90th birthday party and gave it to her as a gift for her 91st!! Parts 2 and 3 in separate posts.

Enjoy and be well!
