As a newly retired Empty Nester, I was looking for a way to clean out my extra closet that was full of scrapbook supplies and paper.

Thank for the support and compliments. The wood grain and plaid is from Echo Park. I love to use those patterns to break up some of the design paper.

I made this Beginner Album for a friend to gift to her companion. I chose this paper because it has a masculine color scheme. It’s from Paper Rose and has a very smooth texture and nice sheen. I like how the album shows off the graphics of the paper. Now on to the next.

I realized tonight that I need to change my answer. I sat down surrounded by my paper, cutter, tape, etc., an hour later I haven’t cut a single thing. I think I like the feels it gives me, calmness and peace. I definitely and not prodively producing.

Thanks so much. The paper is so sweet! I thought I would not have enough. I have enough to make a small album or a notebook for myself.

The triangles are the opposite side of the remnants from the diagonal cuts of the first section. I try to use as much of the scraps as possible.

I completed the October Challenge and it was definitely a challenge. I put a different spin on the shape. I’m gifting it to someone with limited space. I tried new design elements and learned from some new mistakes. I kept telling myself that anything can be fixed and it is meant to be made by hand. I used Chickens paper by Echo Park.

The scalloped edge on your inserts add a great touch of texture. I love the blue and pink for a wedding. I looks very elegant.

I appreciate you showing an example of how to use single sheets from Hobby Lobby. I am inspired. I have been struggling to choose paper for a wedding album. Thank you.
