That's a good point, it's pretty dry in the winter. I can usually repair with glitter glue but not always. Thank you for your thoughts on it! I hadn't considered it.

I'm in love with Carta Bella paper...they are almost always gorgeous and heavy weight. A joy to work with. Thank you!

I totally forgot that I had ordered a Valentine's bundle from Carta Bella (one of my fav. design paper creators). So I used the Mighty Mini tutorial rather than do a second challenge album. I really love this album and will use it again.

One issue, no matter the weight of the cardstock that I use and the amount of gentle pre folding - when I bend it around the chipboard for the cover, it frays and sometimes breaks in spots. If anyone has suggestions, I'd love the help.

I completed the Flutter Folio challenge!  I didn't have enough of any one style of Valentine's paper so I chose to go with another "love" of mine...reading.  This was fun paper to use from Echo Park's "Bookish" line.

I'm never completely happy with my designs and am my own worst critic but never the less, I love doing these challenges.

Thank you Frances!  I was worried about the busy-ness of the papers but had to hope that the colors would pull it all together.  This was really fun and thank you to the creators that gave the ideas and you for pulling it all together in a beautiful book!

Thank you!  Hard to pass up the fun bee papers.  This is my 3rd or 4th bee collection.  😊

Thank you!  I'm in love with these Carta Bella and Graphic45 papers that feel so heavy.

I spent a ton of time making the "Insert Idea #1" as my Christmas Card this year so I decided to go in a different direction for the Veleeta Album.  Yes, I may be obsessed with bees but I couldn't resist this beautiful, thick cut paper from Carta Bella.  I took a few creative licenses throughout but I'm pretty happy with it overall.

Veronica Hebard I bet it is!  I wasn't as happy with mine so took it down.  Haven't decided if I'll try again or not.  But I think yours is very spooky cute!
