Easter Basket

Here is a picture of a sweet little Easter Basket that I made.  I used Becky's instruction over at InkingIdaho.blogspot.com.  Each side a graphic I printed from Shelly Comiskey's collection found at  daisiecompany.com.  I thought I could use store bought stickers also.

Valentine Mailbox

I used Kathy Files' tut called "Love Letters".  You can find her at PaperPhenomenon.blogspot.com.  I used various digital papers from my collections.  The front paper is from Laurie Furnell.  I purchased my papers from AimeeAsher.com and from D.A.I.S.I.E. company.com and PCCrafter.com.  I also purchased valentine stickers.   I just love how it came out.  This is for me. :)   My hunny does not write love letters in his own hand, but he gives me the most beautiful love letters in the cards that he gives me.  I plan to take pictures of us together and gifts given each year, and there is plenty of room to stash his cards in the mailbox too. :)

 I don't have all the mats done.  Each page will have two dark pink mats - one on the outside, and one in the pocket of which you can only the tab.  I put the light pink paper in so that you could see the hearts that will hold the picture.

Christmas Two Sheet Show-off Album

I used BettyBee's Two Sheet Show-off tut ( www.BettyBrett.blogspot.com ) to make this cute little album I sent to a friend for Christmas.
It uses graphics by Shelly Comisky titled Frosty Friends.  Her art can be found at D.A.I.S.I.E. Company at www.daisiecompany.com. 

David and Kim's Photo Album

This album is made using Kathy's Backpack tut (paperphenomenon.blogspot.com).  I used K & Company Susan Winget Spring Blossom paper stack.  I love these florals.  I also like the play of the light blue paper bag with the white accents.  I used an ek Success punch and a Martha Stewart large boarder punch. 

John and Robyn's Photo Album

This album was for my brother John and his wife Robyn.  (We have 2 Robyns and 1 Robin in our family!) This album is elegant in its simplicity.  I used Laura's Stack the Deck, from Followthepapertrail.blogspot.com.  It turned out simply beautiful.

I used DCWV The Tradewinds paper stack.  The foiled paper is just beautiful  One of the photo mats that is inserted into the pocket has a flap that is blank on the back to add journaling, the other is just the mat.

Here are some more pages.

Mom's Photo Album

Here is another album based on Kathy's Backpack tut. ( www.paperphenomenon.blogspot.com ) I made this one for my mom.  I used K & Co Susan Wright's Nature paper collection.  I made the pages slightly bigger so that I could punch the photo mat corners so that photos could be easily slipped in - no glueing. I also made the hinges slightly larger to make room for lots of photos.  I make photo mats for everything because I don't want to cover up the beautiful paper.  I put a decorated envelope on the right inside flap of each page for keepsakes and journaling.
