Oh my goodness!  Absolutely stunning!   I love the double layering cover and spine!   Another winner Frances!  

I am actually making 100 cards for the Stampin’ Up Convention “swap” I’m attending in Raleigh NC next month! Everything is cut and stamped—just started the assembly. When I return I’m getting back to completing my Minn-sota albums—all four of the shell are completed—now the fun part is left to decorate with the patterned paper! I will post them when completed as well as my cards when done!

Welcome everyone! You will love this site!

I think this will be my next project!  

Well! I am working on the Minne-sota Album x4! The covers & spine are all together all the base pieces are cut—scored and taped—that’s as far as I have gone! But Today my husband and I went to get a new printer! Frances, we got the Epson EcoTank 8550 with the wide format—like yours! Yes, a pretty penny but I am excited to start using it!

I have started this album 2 days ago…I am making 4 of them assembly line fashion.   Next year I am cruising around Hawaii with 4 of my cousins from New Zealand, 🇺🇸🇳🇿and I am making an album each for them — and one for me!  a Cruise / Hawaii Paradise theme so we will all have memories of our trip!  Because we live so far away, we never know when we will see each other again.   I love this album design as it uses mats for 4 x 6 prints only and about 30 pics.  So not too big or too small.  Lovely design!   Thanks for offering this to us!   Such a great Community you have Frances! 🤗❤️ I am happy to be a part of it! 

Thanks so much!  Sounds great!  

Just want to clarify...Frances, you have created a 2 page scrapbook page and when we are done, we will be able to create a 12x12 total book?   If I wanted to make a book to commemorate say an upcoming family trip, can I choose my patterned paper with that in mind?   Or are you going to use a different theme for your design?   I'm thinking in terms of a cruise trip we have planned next year and making the entire book with cruise themed paper?   What do you think???
