Still a work in progress!!!

Here is what I have done so far. I have lots to do on their "personal" pages that the mom to be can fill out once baby is here. Similar to the traditional baby book. I'm not a fan of making 12 x 12 pages....too many spaces to fill. I am going to try to finish this up this weekend...Thanks for looking and posting your comments! Have a great night!!

Working on my biggest project ever!

I was given the chance to make a 12 x 12 -30 page baby girl book for someone. I started it today. I will post pics when I finish....The baby is due in November. It will be neat to see how it turns out. I haven't done a FULL baby book before! I did the Christmas, Halloween, 4th of July and Valentine's Day. They other pages include the other holiday's and the typical baby book (showers, about mom & dad, baby's 1st's and many more!) I may post some pics while I work on it so there aren't so many at the end. Thanks for looking!!

Here is another book I have made for a dear friend who adopted her daughter from China





























I made this book for my friend Mindy. They adopted Claire from China almost 2 years ago. I asked Mindy for the book so I could take some pictures of it. (I didn't take pics of my books until recently) It's an 8 x8 book and I used a number of different paper lines...my fav was the Basic Grey line.

Here is the CaNdY Collage...hope I win the Best of Show prize tomorrow!!




Two different shots for the Candy Collage....I used the DCWV Sweets Paper and some other things I had already bought.


Update....I did not win. I guess Brach's was looking for some magazine cutouts with candy glued to the paper. Darn!!

Now need to make a Brach's Candy collage.....

I now have a quick project I need to get done by Wednesday. It's a candy collage. I 'm not really sure where to start, but have a couple of ideas. I think I will go with the 12 x 12 paper and use a paper bag.....it's a chance to win $25. Can't go wrong with that. I will post a pic when it's complete.

Then I will begin my BIG project of a LadyBug Baby book. It will be a 12x 12 book. The baby is due in November...so I have a little bit of time. But better get started as I have never done a project this big before. I found the cutest ladybug paper that matches the baby bedding perfect....at WALMART of all places. I don't usually look at their paper but walked through real quick and spotted it!! I will have lots of fun working on this one!!

Wedding Album Request......Aug 09

I had a gal at work ask if I could made her niece an 8 x 8 wedding album. I have never done anything geared towards a wedding, so I was going down a new road of ideas. It was fun to make, it did take me quite a bit longer than normal, but in all, I think it turned out pretty nice.....
