This is so beautiful!! I love the paper and how lacy you made it! I also love how many photos this album holds!

Francės, we’ll see, lol. Time is ticking and I still haven’t started 🫣.

I absolutely love your album, Frances!! So many fun “eye drawing” spots. I’m not one to doodle in my albums very much, but you can bet, after seeing those awesome stars and pendants you made with your chalk pen, I raced on over to HobLob yesterday and grabbed myself one, lol. Those stars are super fun and add so much to your belly band page!! I always love when you drop a magnet in the design where you can pop a little tag, or photo spot, love that!! And of course, it’s summer, and like eating, my eyes are bigger than my plate…meaning, including today, I have six days to start and finish this challenge, lol. It looked like I was going to be able to do it and the time has raced!!! Hopefully things will have calmed down for the next one 🤞🏻

Shut the front door!! Your first album?! Girl, you rocked it right outta the park! Well done, new friend, well done!! Hopefully you took a nap and ate lunch somewhere in that 30 hours 🤭. (Pssst, they don’t all take that long 😉) Think of this one as 2 albums that took you 15 hours each to create. After all, this album is for two sweet babies 🥰🥰

Okay, so I totally bombed out doing the last awesome challenge 🫣. I even have the chipboard cut out for it 🤦🏼‍♀️. I still plan to make it but I’m going to try harder to make this one work. Having an actual theme might get might hind end in gear, lol. I love making Christmas albums!!

I told Francės that I didn’t think I would join this month’s challenge, but now, FOMO is getting the best of me 😳🫣🤭. I’m going to say I’ll join and leave it at that, lol. Whether it comes to fruition, remains to be seen 🤣

Meghan, you’re cracking me up 😂🤣!! Your chaotic reunion show came together nicely and everyone now seems to be getting along great! Lol! Your album turned out amazing, the colors blend well, the ephemera is all happy together, and the overall effect is wonderful. I feel you though, I can put a book together with the best of them…..and then comes picking out what papers go where, what ephemera looks the best on said papers, etc. It can truly be so frustrating. When I get to that point, I walk away. Not forever, lol, just for a day or two. Then I can come back to it with fresh eyes, and hopefully a fresh attitude, lol. You created an amazing keepsake that will be filled with fun summer photos and loved forever 🥰.

This album is absolutely beautiful!! What a beautiful keepsake to give to your mother, she will cherish it! And Francės, you’re right, these are totally colors I would use!!

😂

Francės, I agree! I’m so glad that you did!!
