Love Mini Album

Hi Everyone!

Today I would like to share with you a mini album that I made for my bestie.

Every month we do a swap with each other and for the month of May, we decided to make each other a mini. We each gave the other a list of 5 themes that we would like to have a mini for and created a mini album from that list. We couldn't tell each other what theme we chose, that way it would be a surprise when we received it in the mail.

I was really intimidated cause I have never created a 6x6 chipboard mini album before. This was my first.

One of the themes that Kimberly had on her list was a love themed album for pictures and memories of her and her hubby.

This is what I created for her:

The cover:

Pages 1 and 2:

(Quote is on a flap that opens up for more pictures)

Pages 3 and 4:

Pages 5 and 6:

Pages 7 and 8:

(On the right hand side, once the bow is untied it reveals another little mini album)

Pages 9 and 10:

All the patterned papers came from the Love Me collection from My Mind's Eye.

If you have questions about anything else that I used, don't hesitate to ask. 

I hope she enjoys the mini album that I made for her. 

You can see the one she made for me on her blog post HERE.

I hope you all have a great crafty day! 

This Calls For Chocolate!

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend with lots of crafty time :)

Today I get to share with you another fun project showcasing those awesome Joy's Life Stamps.

This week the design team has been showing projects that incorporate a tag in some way.

I decided to make a fun little birthday gift using a recycled frappachino jar.

A view from the top:

For my project, I reused a frappachino jar. After I cleaned it really good, I filled it with some chocolate candies. I wrapped my jar with some fun papers from TPC Studios. I then decorated the lid using the same papers and my circle punches/dies. I fussy cut a little birthday gift from the patterned paper and applied that to the lid as well. I added a tulle bow and a cute little tag using this awesome sentiment from the Tag You're It Set 2 set from Joy's Life Stamps:

My tag was cut from the Plantin Schoolbook Cricut cartridge at 2.5".

Super cute huh? and who doesn't love chocolate!

Happy Tuesday!

This week, the Joy's Life DT is all about birthdays!

You can never have too many birthday cards on hand, so I decided to make another card to keep in my card stash.

I used my The Sweet Shop cricut cartridge for my ice cream cone and cut it out at 4". I added some dazzling diamonds to the light pink, even though it didn't show up very well in the picture. I popped up my cone with some foam adhesive to give the card a little more dimension.

For my sentiment, I used one from the Yummy Pun stamp set from Joy's Life:

Fun In The Sun--A Krafty Girls Challenge

Happy Tuesday!

Are you guys ready for another awesome challenge starting today at

Krafty Girls?

Challenge #10 is all about Fun In The Sun---Create a project that inspires you about summer.

I decided to make a card based on the most loved items in my closet :o)

Flip Flops!

I love flip flops! I look forward to warm weather just so I can wear them. Although if I am being truly honest, I pretty much wear them year round, even when it is 40 degrees outside. :o)

Anywho, for my card, I created a ruffled border by using my diamond lace border punch from EK Success and layered them on top of each other. I added a seam binding bow and then added that to my white card base. For my flip flops, I cut them out of the Car Decals cricut cartridge at 3.25" and attached them to the top of my white base.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today and taking a look at my latest creation. I really appreciate it! Don't forget to head over to the Krafty Girls blog to see more fun in the sun projects from the design team. I hope you will enter the challenge. I look forward to seeing what you create!
