Max & Whiskers Mini Album

You must admit...my sweet girls look adorable in this mini album!

The supplies used in this project include Basic Grey's Max & Whiskers collection and a 6 x 6 Bo Bunny chipboard album.

Road Trip Mini Album with Basic Grey

One of my favorite collections from Basic Grey is Wander -- a travel line that has the cutest chipboard embellishments ever!  I used this line to create a fun little keepsake for a recent girl's weekend to a Creating Keepsakes Convention in Charlotte.  We had so much fun and this album really reflects why I look forward to this trip every year.

Boyish Charm, Boy Scrapbook Album

Gorgeous double-sided paper, glitter that stays on, fun embellishments -- lots of scrapbook companies are doings things right these days and My Mind's Eye is one of my favorites that always seems to get it right!
They introduced lots of fabulous goodies at CHA last month and I have just about bought all of it!

I created this "Boyish Charm" album as a sample for my LSS.  I love it so much, I am going to have to recreate one for myself!

I am also loving this chipboard album from Pine Cone Press -- 6 x 12 allows for lots of 4 x 6 photos, plus if you know me, you know I like to reduce my photos to smaller sizes.  But for this 6 x 12, I think I will include a couple full page (8 x 10 cropped to 6 x 10) -- so fun!

I really do not think I could love chipboard and layered stickers more than I do right now :)  .

Can anyone say glitter !  And it does not come off!  I am a mother of boys (not a lot of glitter in my life) but  I am a scrapbooker -- I can appreciate a little glitter once in a while!  And this...wow...lovin' how each piece of paper has just a little bit of shine! (Again, if you know me, you know I do not work for MME, but I sound like it don't I?)  That's what love sounds like.....LOL!

Do you love my perfectly placed frame embellishments?  Yeah, wish I could take credit for that -- but nope, they are already on the paper and SOOOO cute!

I mentioned on my last post that I was going to show all of you a mini I did with Basic Grey's super cute pet collection from a few years back.  Gina got it right again -- "Max and Whiskers" -- I am lagging behind on my photos due to a wonderful girl's weekend to CKC Charlotte but I will get it added to the blog soon.  It's even got pictures of my sweet baby girls, Reeci and Maisy, in it.  Stay tuned....

Happy Days Mini Album #4 with My Mind's Eye

There's not a lot of 'fancy' going on with mini #4.  Just an easy little book using an adorable paper line by My Mind's Eye called Fine & Dandy True Blue (there is a girl's version called Fine & Dandy Tickled Pink) and both are cute, cute, cute!  I also love the kraft color of the 7 Gypsies album (versus standard grey chipboard) and since I wanted that color to show, I didn't completely cover each page with paper.  This made for a quick little project that is screaming for me to fill with pictures.  

                                 

I have one more mini to share with you tomorrow...and here's a hint for that one:  Do you remember the name of Basic Grey's super cute pet line that was introduced a few years back?  If so, leave me a comment and check back in at my site tomorrow!

Day 3 of the Mini Marathon

Sultry!  Yep!  Gina and Roxanne both got it!   This, of course, was the paper line I used in yesterday's mini album.  A very old, but very pretty line that was introduced in 2008.  The other lines that came out around the same time were Boxer and Archaic.  Basic Grey has always been one of my favorite companies -- way back to Vagabond in '05!

For today, I am switching gears to another favorite -- Bo Bunny.  Their Gabrielle line is so pretty -- the colors and the butterflies!   This is a friend themed mini that was super simple, but oh so fun to create.

Tomorrow I will be sharing mini #4 with you.  It's a cute little book for a boy using Fine and Dandy True Blue paper by My Mind's Eye and a great little 7 Gypsies chipboard album.
