Friend of a friend

I made three one page paper bag albums for my friend.  One for each of the three dogs she has had in her adult life.   She liked them so much that she asked me to make an album for her friend.    The photos she sent fit better in a different kind of mini album.  This is what I came up with:

front cover

back cover

It is a 6 x 6 mini made from one sheet of card stock.  The way it folds it actually sits up like a picture frame.

30 minute challenge

This was the challenge:
Create a bookmark that must include:
a) Cardstock
b) Three patterned papers

Here is what I came up with :

This is a corner bookmark.  The third pattern is on the back.  The beads are from my stash and the papers are scraps.

Oops!

I was trying to do a challenge of making an Easter card with mint or light green, glitter, and ribbon.  I finished it and realized that it wasn't green ROTFLOL!  That's what I get using scraps-it forces you into using the colors that you have on hand.  Here it is:

And surely He does live!  I am so glad that Jesus hung up and got up!  Whoo Hoo!

Another Friday Night Chat Challenge

I saw these type of cards at a craft show I went to back in the 80's.  I have been meaning to make my own, but I forgot all about the craft.  I bet all crafters have a pile of unused ideas lol.  When I saw this note card in the Scraps of Color Gallery I was inspired.  Guess what?  I still didn't make the craft.  

Then we were issued this challenge in the FNC (Friday Night Chat): Challenge 4) Create a scraplifted layout or card from a picture in the SOC gallery. You must include a link to the inspiration picture and post the reason why you selected the picture.

 I scraplifted Patricia Stuart.  I have not had the chance to chat with her, but you can view her blog here.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you come again soon.

Friday Night Chat Challenge

I have not played along in a Friday Night Chat challenge on the Scraps of Color .ning site in so long.  The challenges usually require you to make something in 30 minutes. 

Challenge1: Create an Easter card and you must include all of the following:
a) The color pale or mint green
b) Ribbon
c) Glitter

I do not do many Easter cards so this was a challenge for me.  Papers are all scraps from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you come again soon.

Pass-it-on Crocheting party

Here is a scrapbook layout I made of a Pass-it-on Crocheting  party.  The children had fun.  The crocheted flowers kind of emphasizes the theme of the event.  I may add journaling later.  I have quite a few pictures to scrap from this event.  

The layout was made in a class at a recent crop I went to.  The bee hive-chicken wire thingy was cut out using the Pazelles machine.

Thank you for stopping by.  I hope you come again soon.

TP mini

Here is a TP mini that I made for a fellow online crafter.  He mentioned wanting a Valentine's Day TP roll mini.  I tried to oblige but soon realized that I did not have much Valentine themed embellishments.  I hope he was not too disappointed receiving an incomplete album and was able to further decorate the mini album and make it his own. 

I do like the way the tags came out
