Has anyone seen those new clear albums that Pageframes makes? I want one so bad!!! The only thing clear that I had lying around here was some badge holders so I created this little album real quick today before I had to leave for work. Sorry the pictures didn’t turn out that well. I will re-take them later when I have more time.
Scrapbooking/ Mini Albums
My first “boy” themed mini book!
Here it is – the very first boy themed mini book I’ve done. I’m not used to scrapping boys at all since I only have nieces and I seem to use pinks and flowers on *everything* I do! The cutie in this book is Logan, our friends son. A couple weeks ago we went to his 2nd birthday party which is where Brent managed to get these great photos of him. Isn’t he just the cutest little guy? He was thrilled at having the chocolate cupcake but I think more of it wound up on his face rather then in his mouth! lol
The cover has a peek a boo hole on it which I made into a shaker box – you can see the photo on the next page through it.

What a great weekend it was
We got back last night from spending the weekend on the island visiting my parents. It was a busy weekend but we had a lot of fun! It always seems that we have to cram so much into the little time that we have to spend there now. It was my mum’s birthday a few days ago on May 10th and I made her a little paper bag album (pictures below) – so once again Mum – Happy Birthday!!!
I hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day yesterday!
Me and my mum – she is the best!!!!
With my grandma : )
Valentine’s Mini Book
The last 4 days or so have been very blah days – I had some sort of stomach bug since we returned home Monday and it got significantly worse by Wednesday. I spent the better part of the week lying on the couch with my laptop. The only good thing about that was I was able to catch up on both the SG forums and the latest 3 episodes of Desperate Housewives that I had on the PVR! Multi-tasking – working on the computer and watching tv while still resting – lol!
Last night I finally dragged myself upstairs to my scrap room to get some actual scrapping done – I really wanted to participate in the online crop that is going on at Scrap Galaxy this weekend. Deanne and Carla have put a ton of work into it and so far it’s a huge hit! Way to go girls!!
I did manage to get one layout done for Challenge #6 of the crop. It is the first layout that I have done just about myself.
Then of course, I got sidetracked and wound up making an entire coaster mini album (which has nothing to do with the crop). It’s more of a Valentine’s gift album for Brent. I made it using the coasters we got last weekend at Outback Steakhouse – hehe. (I knew they would come in handy!)
I also scanned the individual pages before I punched holes in them.
