Dinner meeting is a win-win. I don't have to make dinner and I get the big TV all to myself. #girldinner #yourbookofmemories

When making the BOA you have to cut over 100 photo mats.

Cut 8 1/2 x 11 horizontal at 10 1/2 & 6 1/4.

Turn 6 1/4 x 8 1/2; cut at 4 1/4.

Cut the 8 1/2 x 4 1/4 and cut at 6 1/4.

3 pieces of 4 1/4 x 6 1/4.

You could probably use the leftover for a tag. Very little waste.

Paper is a commodity...

Did you know you could get 4 - 5" x 7" out of 1 - 12" x 12" piece of cardstock.

Mark 5" on each side.

Mark /cut 7" on each side.

See template.

Project organizer - Part 2

I created a template in word using columns in the layout ribbon.

I then typed often used key terms to describe pieces leaving room to include additional descriptors; I.e., waterfall (wf), thin, inside, outside, etc.

After printing the template I placed post its over the words.

I then run the template with post it's through the printer.

I placed a page of the pre-printed post it's inside the page organizer ready to use for next project.

Love comments and feedback!

A few of us are lucky enough to have a dedicated place in our homes to craft. Even then it can sometimes be small. I'm constantly looking for ways to organize my tiny craft room.

That being said I came up with an idea to organize cut items when making albums. This file folder has inserts to slide pieces into for portability.

Love comments and feedback.

Husband has to run parts this morning so I'm taking advantage of the big screen to review the videos on this month's challenge.

BOA - P1

While making this album I've come to the realization that in order to share pics I'll have to do each page/section in individual posts. I still need to add embellishments and such.

Target audience: Baseball club parents/participants.

Would love feedback. TIA.
