Memories - Engagement

I have one of those old style photo albums the ones you peel back stick your picture in the page and then stick it back down over the top. I guess when you think about it this kind of photo album would be considered basic scrapbooking cause you could use pictures of different sizes to show an event or special occasion.

Anyways mine has slowly over time been changing color on me and I am worried that it will do the same to the photos themselves. So I decided to make a start on transferring the pictures into a new scrapbook. First up is my husband and I at our Engagement party.

I can't get over how young we look and how skinny I was, and as for the huge glasses.....no comment. LOL. Sixteen years later and I am still very much in love with him and this page has gone into my favorites.

Bathroom Re-Vamp

Just popped in to show you all a little something. I have broken with routine a little and done some more sewing while in the process of spring cleaning. My kids Bathroom has an underwater theme but needed a little something so I made a bubbly tie-back and bought these cool bubble looking decals on clearance at Michael's for the wall. The fish I got ages ago from Bed Bath and Beyond. I think it looks pretty neat. How about you?

Little Pull String Gift Bag

We have friends that have just had a baby boy. I wanted to send them a little something and I found the cutest outfit with a frog on it and remembered I had some cute froggy fabric here at home so I looked it out along with a pattern for a mini duffle bag and I made the bag to go with the outfit. It looked pretty cute at the end, I think I will be making more of these. It was fun and easy to make.

New Job Card

I made a card for my niece to celebrate her new job. She is training to be a vet's assistant. My daughter wants to be the same thing when she grows up isn't that sweet. I used a digi stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil it is called coexist. The pile of animals seemed to fit perfectly.

Birthday Pages

Continuing on with my daughter and her best friend's friendship books. I did a page from my daughter Megan's Birthday last year. She had her party at Build A Bear. Inviting just a handful of friends. They had a great time and this page was a lot of fun to make. I even managed to find Build A Bear stickers at Michael's.

Megan also invited her best friend's sister to the party as they enjoy playing together also. I didn't want her to feel left out so I made this picture card for her. Using my top note die for the surround and 2 pictures. One, I cut down smaller and stuck on with pop dots to make it stand out from the page.

Happy St. David's Day

Sorry, nothing to show you today just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a Happy Saint David's Day. It is a special day for welsh people just as St. Patrick's Day is special to Irish people.

Hope you have a wonderful day.
