Unexpected Reunion


I wish I could thank my mom for saving so many photos, newspaper clippings, and other mementos.
They are really a treasure.

Animal Adventure mini-album


Another mini-album made from one sheet of cardstock - these are really fun to do.
This one is for my grandson and highlights his 4-H animals (bunnies and cavies),
and their trips to 4-H exhibitions, shows, and fairs.
The pocket in the middle will hold a card listing the animals and events.

Do What You Love mini-album


I made this darling mini-album watching Meghann Andrew (Scrapbook and Cards Today)
on a Facebook Live. You make the base of the album using just one piece of cardstock and 
then decorate it however you choose. This will be for my granddaughter and will feature 
pictures of things that she loves - theater, travel, etc.
