Honeymoon Mini Scrapbook continues--page 2

Onto page 2--another 12 x 12 piece of designer series paper. I scored at 6" going both directions.
I cut out one of the 6" squares. Here is the page all opened up. The top flap lifts up and the right flap flips open like a page in a book. I matted the areas and left room for journaling.
I folded the right page back in to reveal the back of that page. Again some photo mats and a little area for some journaling. I didn't adhere the journaling piece down so that they can slip a picture behind the darker brown paper and then adhere.
This is the back of the page. I made a pocket to put photo mats in and some more journaling options. There are a lot of places to put photos on this page.
Let me know, if you have any questions.

Honeymoon Mini Scrapbook continues--page 1

This is the inside cover. I made it into a pocket so several tags and photo mats could be added. You'll see some journaling pieces throughout the book. I just found them already made online and printed them on white cardstock. Pretty simple.
Page 1

This page is made from one piece of 12 x 12 designer series paper. You score at 3 3/4 and 7 1/2. Turn the paper and score at 6" on the other side. You form a Z fold on the 3 3/4 and 7 1/2 in. side. Fold in 1/2 on the 6" fold. You can trim the top if the folding didn't perfectly line up. I left mine at the 6 inches. There is a cut to make on the 6" score line. It is hard for me to explain so here is an excellent video that shows how to make the page. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWripCy_Pzk
This should explain everything. Let me know, if you have any questions.

Josh & Lacey's Honeymoon Mini Scrapbook

I'm finishing up a mini scrapbook for my nephew that will be married tomorrow, July 20. They are planning a honeymoon trip to Fort Lauderdale so I put a beach paper on the front cover. I'm hoping to see the mini when they are back and have a chance to put their pictures in it. I've also included a picture of the charms I made for them.  The book is 6 x 6 inches. I'll show more of the pages in the next few days, if you are interested. If you have any questions about something, just email me.

One more sympathy card

This card will go to the aunt and uncle of the young lady that lost her life as posted on Monday. Live life to the fullest. You never know when God decides to bring you home with him.

Love & Sympathy 2

I have other family members to send sympathy cards to so I made a different card for the grandparents of yesterday's post. God's blessings on the healing process as the funeral is today.

Love & Sympathy

I really don't enjoy making sympathy cards, especially when I'm making them to send to someone. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family that lost their 17 year old daughter in a car accident. My daughter is the same age and I couldn't imagine losing her.

Celebrate, It's your day!

For anyone out there having a birthday or anniversary or for any reason at all, celebrate. It's your day!
I saw this sample on Pinterest and knew I needed to try and make it. It uses the Celebrate (Sale-a-bration) tricycle stamp and the French Foliage stamp set to create the background grunge look. I like how it turned out.
