Good morning fellow bloggers, it feels kind of strange not to have a DT post for today. But, I am truly enjoying not being of a specific time table at the moment. I do love being on Design Teams. And will start to look around for another one soon. But, one that is for any other day except Saturday. Time for a change.
Over the last few months I have acquired a need to make mini albums. I love trying the different styles that are out there. I have made several and given them all away and even had a commission to make a couple. Those are the ones that I am about to show you. The first and second of this style that I made, I gave one to my daughter and the other I sent to my sister for her birthday. That is the one that some people at work got a look at and decided that they had to have one. So I got orders for 2 more. But, then I had to come up with a price for them. They gave me what I asked for and I gave them what they wanted.
As you can see they are similar, the papers are from the same K and Company Susan Winget designer and specialty pads. Love these papers. The flowers are prima and the butterflies are Recollections. The ribbon is from my stash. I used my wonderful fairly new Cinch to bind them. The closure is made with a chain from Michaels and my jewelry making stash, the frame was something that I bought on clearance a really long time ago, I painted using alcohol inks and silver fixative. The bling is from my stash. The hitch for the closure is from Tim Holtz. Last but not least is the design for these albums. That is from Elsa over at Just a Few Designs. Each section of this album was made from one single sheet of 12x12 paper. there are pockets and and lots of tags and the album will hold lots of photos.
As you can see, these turned out to be the perfect little gifts. Well that is it for now. Hope that you have enjoyed your visit.

ReplyDeleteHi Joynana,
ReplyDeleteI'm back to answer your question since I didn't know if you would stop by my site again or not. :)
I purchased the cabinets on the wall in my craft room from IKEA and my sweet husband put them up there for me. I am still playing catch up too. Last week our power went out in a storm so I wasn't able to do anything for a couple days then this week, life has been keeping me a busier than I like so I haven't gotten around to visit much.

These look beautiful but I can't see that you have used a product from Marianne Design to quality for the Marianne's Divas prize. Hope to see you again soon.
