Tracy, thank you!!

Thank you, Tania! The paper I used is actually digital papers I found on Etsy 😊

Thank you, Francės, thank you so much 🥰😘! These books, using digital papers and art from Etsy, are becoming tiresome, lol. My brain aches so much when I finish making one. There’s no ephemera, no cut aparts, no journaling cards. Just me and my tired old brain trying to make something from nothing, 😂🤣. When my dil helped Laken open it, she told him, “Look, there’s extra pieces in the back, you can help Grandma put the photos in it.” I’m thinking, What now? That’s not part of the gifted book deal, LOL!! I didn’t say anything, I just told her I had some additional things I needed to do to it at home, and I did. I just didn’t tell her that there was no way I was letting a 6 yr old help me with a book involving 2x2’s 😂🤣. It was still fun to make and it was fun for me to know that I’m capable of making a few changes to create a book that works for what I need it to.

It wasn’t my intention to post it with photos, but for some reason, on my iPad, I can’t see the complete image, so I retook the photos and posted them again. By then, I’d added the photos to Laken’s book, lol. Thankfully, his mom doesn’t mind him being seen on Facebook. My other dil, that’s another story, lol. I’m glad you like that pocket! I had to remake it because the first time, the pocket didn’t go all the way to the bottom. This one will work better for any big cards that he got, plus, his mom can put the birthday invitation in there as well. 😊

Amanda Neaves 😂😂😂, that is the very best story, LOL. I actually laughed out loud sitting at my desk 😂😂😂 I’ll look you up on Facebook and send you the video of the little helper standing in the washer in his boots 😂🤣. (What does your profile pic look like on Facebook? Or you can look me up under Jodi Hawn-Geers

Francės Long, it’s such a cute movie 🥰. Wyatt loves Toy Story 2 right now, and the evil Zurg, lol.

Francės, you’re so right, lol. I love a book with lots of pages, I’m so glad I get to interpret your beautiful designs my way and create the extra pages 🥰🩷. Although, most of the time, I create them exactly as you’ve made them 😊

Francės Long, think Woody and Buzz Lightyear, lol

I thought I was going to create a different album for my 3 yr old grandson's birthday....until this one, lol. I'm pulling kraft cardstock out right now!!
