Mini Album Baby girl

Well here I am at last, it has been a while since I posted and as it has been pouring

down with rain I thought I would get round to posting my mini album.

This is only the second one I have made so it is still new to me.

The album measures 8" x 6" x 3 and a half "

The album cover paper is from some old stock I had and I have used lace and dies

from china and flowers and corners from "Wild Orchid crafts"

This page is the inside cover of the album

The dies used are from "Spellbinders"

and I have decorated the pockets using pearl string from China which

costs £8.50 for 50 meters ( Bargain )

It opens up to reveal pockets on either side and a large pocket to 

hold tags etc

I have decorated the page with flower dies from China

Page one outer flaps made using "Sue Wilson Noble Squares Dies"

to make two picture frames

It opens up to reveal another pocket holding a chart and two small envelopes.

"Sue Wilson Gemini dies" are used again to make the pretty border and I have added lace

Page two is made again using the gorgeous pearl string and "Poppy stamps Stitched triple blooms"

I have added ribbon using "Brother P-Touch embelish machine" to print the wording.

It opens up to reveal another pocket holding a chart for Baby's progress

and it closes using a velcro dot

Pages three and four are both the same, I have made a waterfall for photographs

there is space for 10 photos on each page

They are secured in place using a lace frill secured by a velcro dot

Page five I have made two pockets for left hand side of the page

I have made two envelopes to hold little keepsakes

Both of the pockets have cards which can either hold photographs or

updated information on baby's progress

Page six I have made to look like a large envelope

I have decorated it with lace and flowers from Ali Express China

It opens up to reveal a pocket with Baby's first steps chart and tags

Thin inside of the back cover has two envelopes, one for Baby's first lock of hair

and the other one is for the Baby's hospital wristband, the giraffe die is from China

I have made a large pocket to hold six cards, each side has space for a photograph

and progress information for baby month by month for a year

As always thank you very much for looking and any comments you are kind enough

to leave are always hugely appreciated

Picnic Basket

Morning all

I thought I would post this before I go into the garden to start work out there

Today's project is a picnic basket

I saw this on Pintrest and thought I would have a go at making one

It took forever to do but was worth it in the end

It can be used for Easter eggs, Jewelry box or for putting chocolates in for someone special.

Thank you for looking in and for any comments you are kind enough to leave

40th Birthday

First Post



Good afternoon fellow craft people and visitors, just thought i would share this card with you today. It was commissioned by a fellow crafter for her daughters 40th birthday.

This is a basic 7x7 card layered with Centura Pearl card

Can't remember where the paper is from the dies i used are Spellbinders Triple Floral for the frame, Spellbinders pierced ovals and flourish die.

Decorated with flowers from Wild Orchid with a bit of Glamour dust to give them a sparkle, then added ribbon and gems.
