NEW!!! Baby Explosion Box Tutorial, Large 6 x 6" size!

 


I have made a new explosion box, supersized to 6 x 6".  This was a request from one of my subscribers, so I hope that it is what they wanted to see!  

I made a smaller version that was too small for all I wanted to do with it...so the bigger size was just what was needed.  The video has all of the information in it, and a cutting guide in the description.  

I'm using Echo Parks "Our Baby" paper collection. It took about one pack. I also used Artisan Cardstock, seambinding and Art Glitter Glue from Country Craft Creations. https://countrycraftcreations.com

Thanks so much for watching and visiting my blog.  Have a super crafty day!

A Baby Album!

Hi all!  I skipped last week.  Sorry!  It was a bad week at work I just didn't have the time or the energy to do the blog.  I apologize for that. I hope you had a great Mother's Day!  I sure did.  
Speaking of Mother's Day...a friend of mine is expecting a baby girl and I wanted to make her an album.  Jackie and I went to an Embellish It! all-day crop and I found this kit.  I knew it would be perfect.  I am sharing a lot of pictures but not all of them.  I did alter (as I always do) some of the pages to suit me.
 It's super cute, and it was super easy.  It uses the line from Simple Stories.
 Some of the pages are as it, and didn't require embellishments.
 I love the colors.  It is perfect for a boy or a girl.
 It features pages for pictures of the baby at each of the first 12 months.  It's super easy for the new mom to add her own pictures.

 I am loving the elephant!


I decided the cover needed to be decorated so I used some leftovers to do that.

If you are interested in looking at this kit, or any of the others they have, go to the Embellish It! site.   I love her kits, and her crop days are fun!

Thanks for stopping by!!
