Card and Another Mini

Hello friends!

I teach a class with two other ladies every month,

 at our local scrapbook store.

We each teach a card and tag.

Here is mine:

 I created a Mom themed paper bag mini album.

I love this paper! It's called, Tea For Two by Cosmo Cricket.

Cosmo Cricket has always been one of my favorite companies,

 because of their vintage styled paper lines!

Their new Element Tag Booklets are so pretty with

 the decorative edges and sweet graphics.

Have a lovely day, Lindsey

Heritage Mini Album

Hello friends!

I created this Heritage Memories themed mini album

a couple weeks ago and wanted to share it with you.

I just love this paper line.

It's called Documented by Simple Stories.

I added some fun vintage style roses that I found

at Hobby Lobby and cut leaves from black cardstock

 to give the book a more antique feel.

For the ribbon, I used Hug Snug brand seam binding,

 that I dyed with Scattered Straw Distress Stain.

I picked up a fun new deep edge punch at Joann's

recently that has a lovely lace detail.

Have a lovely day, Lindsey

Baby Mini Book

Hello friends!

I fell in love when I spotted this new paper line last month.

It's called, Little Darlings, by Graphic 45.

This is my second mini album using this sweet paper!

I picked up this lovely cream and pink lace ribbon at Archivers.

This paper line is so fun to work with. Their are lots of sweet little images

 to cut out and layer on the pages.

One of my favorite border punches that I use on almost every page

 is the Eyelet Lace punch by Martha Stewart.

Wishing you a beautiful day, Lindsey

Neopolitan Love

Hello friends!

I recently picked up this fun, bright paper line called Neapolitan,

by American Crafts.

I loved the patterns of this line and created a paper bag album.

On the cover, I used a fun new doily shaped Sizzix die that I picked up at Hobby Lobby.

I thought this was a very versatile line that would be perfect for scrapping parties or everyday life.

The line also had a fun camera and Polaroid feel too it!

One of my favorite sheets was the strawberry pattern!

Wishing you happiness, Lindsey

Vintage Baby Album

Hello friends!

I really really love this new paper!

It's Graphic 45's Little Darlings line,

The colors and sweet vintage patterns make my heart go pity pat!

It was so fun to cut out the adorable graphics from this line to make my own embellishments!

I would definitely rate this paper line in my top 5 favorite lines ever!

It was so easy to scrap with!

 I also added a couple pages from antique baby book that I printed out to fit the album!

The colors from this paper line would also be great for Spring themed projects!

It is so fun and satisfying to create these mini albums! I love the process of designing each page and putting them all together!

What feeds your creative soul?

I listed this album on ebay here.

Wishing you a beautiful day, Lindsey

Floral Mini Album

Hello friends!

I've been scrapping this week using a lovely

 new paper line called, Miss Caroline by My Mind's Eye.

This line was filled with cool wood grain patterns and florals.

I purchased the 6 inch paper pad to create a paper bag album.

I loved the layered look of these patterns!

The flowers and dolies make me think of Spring and how ready I am for everything to bloom and bring sunny days!

I love how kraft cardstock coordinates well with

any paper and always has a nice vintage feel.

Wishing you a beautiful day, Lindsey

Pastel Mini Album

Hello friends!

I've been scrapping this week with lovely new supplies

 and created a paper bag album.

I used the Howdy Doody paper line by My Mind's Eye.

A lovely new line that just came out! Full of sweet pastel colors along with wood grains and floral patterns made this line super fun to work with!

I dyed seam binding with Tattered Rose Distress Ink

 to coordinate with the pages and inked the edges of the paper

with Walnut Stain Distress Ink.

Recollection's flowers from Michaels were

 perfect for adding a sweet girly touch!

I just love creating mini albums!

It's such a fufilling craft project and lots of fun!

My paper bag albums usually measure 6x6, which is perfect

 for use with the mini paper pads!



Crafting can be so theraputic and I love the feeling of excitement

I get everytime I pull out a stack of pretty paper and glue!

Wishing you a beautiful day, Lindsey
