Here is a sneak peek into the new class coming in early November! I'm so excited for this one, and honestly, it's so hard to keep this a secret! I really want to tell you everything, but I can't wait to surprise you with the final result.
It's unlike any album we've made before because it's the result of a special collaborative design process.✨(can’t wait to spill the confetti!) 🤭
If you would like to use the same paper I'm working with, here's a link to where you can get yours so you can be ready to follow along on day one!
🎄Can you guess what kind of project we'll be making? Let me know! 👇🏼
Off to work I go—I’ll be back with the New Class announcement early November!

Another Disney book for another friend going on vacation. I'm slightly jealous of these people skipping out of work to go to Disney. If I were going on vacation, it wouldn't be Disney but maybe some cabin in the woods with a fire place and snow..... Let me stop daydreaming...
I hope they have fun putting pictures in this Fun Folio!
This book was thought-provoking. I loved putting it together. I did put a frame in the wrong place, but hey, it's art and it's homemade so maybe I didn't put it in the wrong place. 😄
I couldn't get the banner slot thingy to work over the waterfall area so I used a magnet instead.

This is the Delightful album. I made it a Christmas album. I put the Trifold on the front of the album. I made the 'Page' a pocket page for the Booklet. And then when you turn the page over I clipped the magnet booklet onto the edge of the 3rd page pocket. Lastly, I added a pocket to the back page instead of the strips. I love the strips and will use them on a different album. But I wanted to get the "Christmas trucks" in the album as the theme. Thank you, Frances, for a fantastic design. I had so much fun! I am working on the 12x12 folio right now. Be Blessed all!
