My 6 year old grandson is coming out to visit so I made the 6x6 pop up mini for him for polaroid pictures. We got him a kid size black and white camera. I used a desert theme since we are in Southern Utah and used the Echo Park Into the Wild tags (he will be camping, fishing and hiking) and will let him decorate with all the stickers. I put a few photos inside for him when we tested out the camera! This was a lot of fun to make. Can’t wait for him to add pictures from his trip.

I love this moment every time. I'm lucky to I have handfuls of creative talented friends like you. ~ Featuring Veronica's Flutter Folio Rendition 🤍
Here I will be sharing casually what I have been up to throughout my day, personal and album related. All questions are welcome anytime 😁

Just finished the Double Waterfall Folio which was so much fun. Made quite a few mistakes but I sure learned a lot. (Notice the front tag hiding the ribbon I forgot to put on before the design paper and the mitered top corners of the envelope).🤦♀️ But I had a blast and this one is just for me. I absolutely love the Echo Park Bee Happy paper. Now on to the next project where I hope to learn from my mistakes. Thank you Frances for such wonderful designs!

Made my first album using the Peace tutorial. I only had 6x6 paper so I have more trim showing but I had so much fun. It was great to pull out some of my 30 years old scrap booking supplies. This is for my daughter who just had a baby boy. Can’t wait to get started on the next one. Thanks for such easy to follow videos Frances!

I'm working my way through the tutorials. This time I tried to tackle the Memory Box. It was a challenge! I love the idea and would make this over and over, but woah, my patience is gone. 😆 I used some old paper from my stash called The Green Stack from Hobby Lobby. I have lots of scraps leftover to maybe scale this to a smaller box (if I can work up the courage).
Lots of fussy cutting cute animals.
Francės Long you must have the patience of a saint!

One last project before I go back to work tomorrow. 😑
I had lots of leftovers from the green bee album, but not enough to make something big. So once again, I scaled the petal album to 5x7.
I chose to use the blue/gray paper for my base. I am in love with it. The yellow ribbon is a little more neon than I wanted, but it is what it is.

I just finished a memory album of my dad to take to his memorial. He was a few weeks shy of 90 when he passed away and had lived a wonderful life. I used the mighty mini for inspiration. It was challenging since I was sent a lot of photos from his early years that I wanted to include. Somehow I got them all to fit! I also needed to make it fairly simple since I gave it to my mom to keep. I used 49 and Market Paper and ephemera. Now I need to make another baby album!

✅ Challenge Album complete! I cannot tell you how much fun I had decorating this one with baby paper by Echo Park. It’s been so much fun to see everyone’s books created in different ways during this month and I am really looking forward to the next one. I added chipboard cover risers and a magnetic booklet as a front element. You can hear all the details and see the rest of this mini here in the newest video. Thanks again so much Beth for throwing this bash to celebrate your birthday month. I hope it was filled with tons of hugs, laughs, and great memories- SOON TO ANNOUNCE THE WINNER! - talk soon 🌱🤍
