Hi Carmen here, loving life on the Isle of Wight, UK. Always loved scrapbooking but never done it this way until I saw Francis on YouTube... hooked,

This is my latest project for my Son, he's well into fishing, but never recording his catches, so now he can

I didn't like my purple fairy book so tried the challenge again. I like this one more and had a fun time with the new base color (I don't think I've don't craft paper color before). I love these challenges! I can use some of the papers on the back shelf.

The school book is finished. It's gaudy😂, but I love it.

It holds around 80 pictures and has designated spots for K-12 pictures.

I completed the August challenge! A couple of little details only to do but overall done. Wanted to post now before pre I forgot! I used Echo Park “ Let’s Go Travel” Paper pack— I had a bunch left over as I used to make “ The BigOl’ Album” a couple years ago for our New Zealand trip! This was a fun project! I hope you like it! There were a couple mistakes where I reversed things but overall it does not make a difference, I was able to make it all work.

Well, the pinwheel folio *slightly* altered to make it portrait style photos and more pockets. I have made the pinwheel folio many times and find they are perfect for grandma brag books. This is the 2nd for the same client! First I have re- engineered. Thanks Frances!

Had so much fun with July's Challenge. I'm not the biggest fan of envelope pockets so I did a deconstructed one instead.

Hi! For the last week I worked on this huge album using the Forever album tutorial! I used three Mintay collections that I purchased long time ago. It is perfect for a Christmas markets vacation we have planned. 🥰. Thank you Frances!

I loved making these 2 According Mini albums. So fast and easy.

Hi Everyone! Well I am trying to work my way through Frances’ design projects and I came across this “Hidden Treasure” design by Shayne. He is nothing less than a genius! This is quite the engineering project! Needless to say—-I had many re-dos while completing it! The box and mechanism is incredible! I used Simple Stories “Remember” paper pack—This one I plan to keep and fill with family photos.
