Cross Canada Blog Hop: Mini Album

Welcome to the Cross Canada Blog Hop featuring mini albums! This month CTMH has a wonderful special featuring our Crush books so of course it only makes sense that I chose to focus on that mini-album!

This month I created two Crush books for special team project. I decorated the front and the first double layout spread and then send the book on to a participating team member. She will do the same and the send it to another team member! Each book will make the rounds and by the end of the summer return to me- through this we will have fun, share our creativity and learn a little bit more about each other!

Here are my books:

This one features the In the Pink series- now the assortment sold out yesterday so you can still purchase the crush book, clips and sticky tabs but you can no longer get the special on this one.

I love this one for its pretty colours and who it fits perfectly with just about everything! I have used one for a first year album, book about me and now a penpal journal!

Here is the second book for my team. This one uses the Wildwood book and accessories (with some others added in).

Again so nice- more masculine. Perfect for outdoors camping but not selective to them. It also coordinates PERFECTLY with our Jackson paper and PML cards!!!

Now hop on over to Donna  to see what she has to share!

Single Page Saturday: a layout about me!

I have no idea what was going on with the light in this picture- I used a nice sunny day but it looks like it was overcast LOL!

Anyways… for this single page saturday I decided to focus on me. Rarely do we scrapbook ourselves so I took the opportunity of having a photo that my three year old had snapped of me  (she did a pretty good job).  My inspiration for this layout came from a picture I saw on pinterest of the title for a journal entry.  I thought it would make a really fun scrapbook title!

a bunch of things layout

 

To get the effect of different fonts I used a variety of alphabet stamps (all Close to my Heart) and some of the stickers that come in the My Crush assortment (do I have you convinced on them yet??)

My journaling I kept simple- just added a few things I am loving right now! It actually sums me up pretty well! I also did MY handwriting- it is a layout all about me after all!

‘Little One’ Layout

Today’s layout follows the theme of the month- using those Picture my Life cards or My Crush assortments in your traditional layouts.  This layout shows BOTH- you can see the cards as squares in my strip on the right and as the background images in my polaroid die-cuts.  These images are from the Laughing Lola collection and worked perfectly for my layout of my new little nephew- Gibson.

I have the My Crush assortments used on both sides as little journaling bits, the pennants and the stickers along the white piece that give the significant stats about his birth.

Here is a close up of some of the pieces to my layout.
