Hello! I made my first full scrapbook today for my inner child, who I have not been kind to. It’s messy inside (like me!) but I took the opportunity to learn how to make mistakes, how to measure the inserts myself, and what the formula is for making the perfect sized photo and mat for it. Instead of scrolling for inspiration, I simply moved paper around my (3!) desks until something caught my eye. This was so therapeutic, I honestly started crying when I put the last picture in.

Thank you, Frances, for sharing your creativity with us. ❤️

Made this notepad cover for my home health nurse that comes to my house everyday. It really made her happy and therefore made my day! The paper on the inside had too many reddish flowers on it so I glued some purple fabric flowers on them as purple is her favorite color.

Love this template and it was the first time I used acetate for pockets.🥰

I also made this one for my Sister in-law for Christmas. Not Valentine but still the same album. I really like the way this one turned out.

For February challenge, I dont have any Valentine or Love paper left but I really did like this peach and green thinking of you paper

This is my first ever project !

I totally forgot that I had ordered a Valentine's bundle from Carta Bella (one of my fav. design paper creators). So I used the Mighty Mini tutorial rather than do a second challenge album. I really love this album and will use it again.

One issue, no matter the weight of the cardstock that I use and the amount of gentle pre folding - when I bend it around the chipboard for the cover, it frays and sometimes breaks in spots. If anyone has suggestions, I'd love the help.

I finally finished this book for a friend for her grandson. It's been sitting bare for a few months.

This is the folio mini with an extra page for a pocket. The paper is from HL and paired with some EP ephemera.

There are two inserts that I didn't get a picture of before wrapping it up.

Mighty Mini Album for yet another wedding gift. I'm not sure what's in the water around here, but I'm booked for a wedding almost every weekend from now until the middle of June!

I wish I had more color along the edges instead of the photo mats.

This book holds a ton of pictures! Echo Park with a few random pages from HL.
