Graduation Album

I have been working on my daughter's graduation album for a few months now and have finally finsihed it. I will be ordering Creative Memories StoryBooks for this album, as I want a copy for myself and my daughter, and there could be others who want a copy too. I have posted a few of the pages so you can see the end result.

I used her favorite color, purple, as the main color for the album. I designed it in StoryBook Creator Plus 3.0 as a 12 x 12 book but decided that it looks just as good as an 8 x 8, so that is the size I will be ordering. I really enjoy digital scrapbooking in addition to traditional paper crafts. Each has its positive aspects and works well for certain purposes.

Rylynn's Polka Dots

This is a page I did of my friend's little cutie, Rylynn. I had the scallop/polka dotted paper in my stash and mounted it on a sheet of butter yellow that coordinated nicely with her outfit. The tag with ribbon is Creative Memories Tag Maker, which I sanded the edges of to give it a little contrast. She's a little doll!

Kalib

This is a page I did of my nephew Kalib. I used Street Sign Cricut cartridge for his name, and the striped circles were punched with my CM Circle Maker. The 3 layered circle on the ribbon was cut with the CM Cutting System Circle Makers, as the sizes of those were slightly larger than my shape maker punch could do. I still need to do my journaling on this page, but I like the end result.

Simple Photo Gift

This is a project I actually made in May 2008, but I found the photo so thought I would post it today. It is quite simple. 3 pieces of cardboard covered with paper that was cut larger than the cardboard and "wrapped" around to the back of each. I put a small strip of paper at top and bottom to connect each of the 3 sections and then covered the back with a slightly smaller sheet to cover the connections. Then I just added the photos and the little punched flowers from a Creative Memories Friendship Micromaker. This would make a nice homemade gift that is quick & easy: maybe for Mother's Day, a birthday, housewarming gift or some other occasion (or even a non-occasion just to show you are thinking of someone) when you don't want to give anything large or expensive. I keep mine on my kitchen counter...they are photos of my mother who passed away in March 2000.
