A Mothers Day Mini Album and a New Digi

Hello everyone,

Hope your weekend went well.

I spent mine working on a mini album for mothers day. I'm about halfway finished decorating the pages then once it's all prettied up I can add pictures and text.

I've added some of my favorite old digis as well as created some new ones for this special book.

And I have one of those new ones to share with you today later in this post.

Here's my cover:

I have 3D pop-ups under my cuddlebug to make her standout against the rest of the cover.

The next two pages contain my latest illustration Alexa.

And the last two that I have completed so far look like this;

I love all the extra stitching on these pages and the little pocket to hold extra treasures.

This little cutie is Alexa. A perfect cuddlebug for telling mom or grandma that you love them on their special day.

Tomorrow I will be releasing some of my vintage digis. I will also have a brand new digi from my archives that was never released to share with everyone.  These stamps will be avaible for a short time then they will saved and return in my Etsy store this holiday season, when it reopens for donations. As long as the book drive for the orphanage is going on, all proceeds will be donated to that again.

 

Have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs,

Anna

 



Carlie Digital Stamp

Hello everyone,

It's a little after midnight, and is now the first day of spring.
And the best part is, we are expecting snow, lol.
I am so ready for warm weather. I can't wait for spring to feel like spring.
To have a few rain showers and watch the flowers bloom.
I'm ready for everything outside to be more colorful (and not covered in snow).

Spring Digital Stamp

I love Smash Books. Have you tried one?

They're a mix between a scrapbook, mini album, journal, and art journal.

You can use them however you like.

Mix it up to save your little keepsakes, whether its a poem, a story, a picture, anything really.

They're so much fun and a great to way to scrap.

 

I have tons of the books, all in different colors, but sometimes I enjoy making my own from scratch. I use the same basic idea but use my own pretty papers that I've collected over the years and I bind it with pretty rings and ribbons. That way everything in the book is all me. Perhaps this really makes it a mini album but I call them my smash books, so to me that's what they are.

 

 

I've just started making a spring book. Something to collect all the fun moments of the season. Everything from stories to art.

 

I've left room for a picture and a story on this page.

Now all I need is a fun memory and maybe some slightly warmer weather :)
