I loved making it and the sweet thing about it is that you can change it each month for the next holiday! So each month for the next 11 month, You will be creating a new set for another month. We will start out with wooden blocks. I purchased a 2X4 board from Home Depot and cut 2 of each at 6 inches, 5 inches and 4 inches. Then I made Modge Podge by mixing 1 cup of Elmers glue and 1/4 cut of water in a jar and shake till mixed. I ripped up the pages of a book and Modge Podged each piece and placed it on the wooden blocks. Let dry. Then I worked on the decorations that will hang on each block. Here is the finished decor for Easter Holiday.<br />

Here is the first block in the set. It has a sweet rabbit decorated so cute, you can see how it hangs on the front of the block of wood. I chalked the edges of each block when they were dry. I used my Cricut to cut the rabbit and some Swiss dot textured card stock. I cut the Happy Easter with my Cricut also, using textured green card stock. I purchased simple upholstery tacks. The little card is made from chip board covered with my choice of card stock. I recycle chip board from the boxes that I get when I purchase my dog food. You can use anything around the house. I love to recycle. It's the Girl Scout in me. I used ribbon I tied in a bow, googly eyes and a black button for the eyes, a little pink heart cut from my Cricut, and twine for the whiskers.<br />

The H in HOPPY, I cut out of glittered card stock with my Cricut and also the cute pink flower and leaves. I added a rhinestone to give it some bling.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Those who know me know that I love the Lord and I try to incorporate something that draws me to Him. Here on the O in HOPPY I found a wonderful scripture to point us to the true meaning of Easter. I made this shape like an egg, added a sweet ribbon, a pink flower cut from the Cricut, and some flowers I had in my stash. I added some rhinestones for bling. My friend Pamela gave me the sweet purple Rhinestone flowers and I was so excited to use them.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The first P in HOPPY, was created in the same way, just added different flower cut with my Cricut.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl47KTwfCG3lspSlI7cDdJOOhfOMYNgskNprd3LVup5OFtnvhZpwNELu5SwDt5RnJhoxE89_Kx6P-orVB2lrJrk7bC1BY-7nKSbEEufnd7jytDqqVct3SpEdXoRq4GVfDrv8GXep_Lxkg/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="889" data-original-width="684" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl47KTwfCG3lspSlI7cDdJOOhfOMYNgskNprd3LVup5OFtnvhZpwNELu5SwDt5RnJhoxE89_Kx6P-orVB2lrJrk7bC1BY-7nKSbEEufnd7jytDqqVct3SpEdXoRq4GVfDrv8GXep_Lxkg/s640/010.JPG" width="492" /></a></div>
The second P in HOPPY, was done in the same way. Not only are the blocks different sizes but the chip board cards are too.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Craft & Crop at the Bird House Craft ProjectHere is the craft project we will be working on. I found this on line and tweaked it. It was a very simple project and I made it thicker so we could add more photos. So not only do you have more room between pages, you have pocket in the top of each page to put more keepsakes, or photos or you could journal about your photo and slip it in the pocket.<br />
<br />

Here you can see that I made it thicker. You can decorate the binding if you like. I chose not to at this time, I may change it later. This is made from wooden sticks glued to chip board and painted white with acrylic paint<br />

Then you will glue the 3 X 3 solid squares one on each of the larger 4 X 4 squares placing them in one corner leaving 1/4 in showing.<br />

You will then shape and hot glue them into cones. <span style="text-align: center;">Once you have enough to go around the form you will fold the tip of the cone around the second wire and hot glue it in place. You will cut patterned pieces 3 X 3 and solid pieces 2 X 2 and do the same with them. When they are done fold the tip of the smaller cones over the center wire of the form and hot glue them in place. </span><br />

I found the idea for this card when I worked at Brookdale in some really old craft stuff that was being thrown out. It was the size of a gift card, but I decided with some tweaking, I could make a regular card from the design. I wish I could give credit to the designer, but have no idea who this person was. </div>

The card base for this project is an envelope. You can use any size, that will determine what the end size will be. I used an 8 3/4 X 5 3/4 envelope. I purchased these a couple of years ago from Walmart. They were boxes of wedding invitations you print your info on. They were in the clearance Isle. I saw some there a few days ago but, I still have plenty. I have used these a couple of times for projects and I paid $1.50 for 50 ct. boxes. </div>

Starting with the envelope I scored in on each side, then cut the sections at the left and right top of the flap just into the score mark, at a angle. then I cut 2 pieces of patterned paper in a square, and lining them up one on the bottom of flap and one on the top of flap. Then I cut one piece of white card stock into a square 1 /8 inch smaller and centered and layered it on the top. I had stamped Celebrate across it and added some rhinestones. I took the envelope and stamped here and there all over. And then cut a piece ribbon and attached to the back of the envelope making it long enough to bring around the card and tie in a bow. Now cut a piece of patterned card stock 1 /8 inch larger than the folded card and attached it. </div>

Next I took a piece of patterned card stock and cut it 4 X 5 and a piece of white card stock cut 1/8 smaller and stamp my sentiment on it and layer it on to the patterned piece. This will slid right into the center of the envelope. </div>

They always made me think of a kids craft project. Something that I would have done with my Girl Scout Troop in the past. Then a new friend of mine said that she wanted to learn how to make one. So I went on line and watched a couple of videos and still was not happy with the way they looked. I have made lots of albums in the past and decided to add the chipboard cover to one and so glad I did. This looks so nice for a paper bag album.<br />

To decorate the cover, I used a Stampin' Up set that I purchased from a friend (Candi). I stamped the flower on teal and rust card stock and then fuzzy cut around it. I did the same with the stamp used for the center of the flower and then attached them with foam squares to give them and the quote I framed that 3-D look. I also used a stamp (Camera) I purchase from the $1.50 bin at Micheal's Crafts. I stamped the camera on white card stock and then cut around it, chalked it and framed it. I printed the quote on my printer and cut around it and then framed it multiple times with different color card stock scraps and attached to the front.</div>

I used this cute flower stamp that I decorated the front cover and stamped it here and there.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I use to do demos for Provo Craft, at Michael’s and Joann’s
Crafts, showing people how to use the different Cricut machines, and when the
Gypsy came out I did demos on how to use it. Over the years I have accumulated
a large collection of Cricut cartridges. I have down loaded (Linked) all of my
cartridges to this Gypsy. I use my Cricut Expressions all the time because I do
craft classes out of my home once a month and provide projects for 11 people,
but I have not used my Gypsy device since demos, except to Link my cartridges
to it. I am interested in selling my Gypsy Device along with the USB cable,AC
Adapter, Cartridge Validation Cable, Gypsy Slip Cover, and here is a list of
the Linked cartridges: 114 total ® = Retired, Hard to find. © = Copy Right, These are more expensive to

These are the items that come with this device when you purchase it new. The first cord with wide attachments on both ends you will use if you want to link more cartridges to your Gypsy. The small end goes in your Gypsy and you attach your cartridge to the large end and then follow the prompts on your screen. The next cord to the right is the power cord. You plug the little round attachment to your Gypsy and the other to your wall outlet. This is used to recharge the device so that you can take it anywhere with you and work on projects. I used it once to design my page in the Dr. Office while waiting on my Granddaughter. The Third cord to the right is used to attach the Gypsy to your Cricut to that you can now cut out your design on your machine. The forth cord is to attach the round end to your Gypsy and the Ethernet plug to your computer so you can up load any new information to your Gypsy.<br />

This is not the best photo, but here you have more choices you can choose from. You can design and make a folder like on your PC and save it and go on to create more while you are away from home and create as many folders as you like and then when you get home attach your Gypsy to your Cricut and open each file to cut your design.<br />

Here is the craft we will be creating. I love this one because I love Sunflowers, so this will be our them.<br />
<br />
I started off with a 12" wire wreath form I purchased at Walmart ($1.77)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOUDGP9ef89G4nHtrNAhI7O5xbIYRl7Lw3Nfj_99n-jT-ueKugabiNLfJoEhzPrkcMeiad0q8Sfdy_DJ9ulHiGBp0FrG08BfrCxn2dVlq-XtMK4eQ42mYDooFEpnBDaLhPOU0cYgMCEak/s1600/002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOUDGP9ef89G4nHtrNAhI7O5xbIYRl7Lw3Nfj_99n-jT-ueKugabiNLfJoEhzPrkcMeiad0q8Sfdy_DJ9ulHiGBp0FrG08BfrCxn2dVlq-XtMK4eQ42mYDooFEpnBDaLhPOU0cYgMCEak/s640/002.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Then I took 122 clothes pins and dyed them with Ritz dye over night. I did this times twelve you won't have to if you are just making one wreath.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzTAbi96ENLhTI3M1noMHXtXyNBr7tuSjXkiZFo-Of1HdBYllBTKDB0jP245F_prSs-R1ifGpVWZbXhopDXbnlAs1IbB78Bhvgq_FJcqkB-HtC4YutOiSF4Caau3a8qUUxZoQ-IiOPuCQ/s1600/003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzTAbi96ENLhTI3M1noMHXtXyNBr7tuSjXkiZFo-Of1HdBYllBTKDB0jP245F_prSs-R1ifGpVWZbXhopDXbnlAs1IbB78Bhvgq_FJcqkB-HtC4YutOiSF4Caau3a8qUUxZoQ-IiOPuCQ/s640/003.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Next I put the clothes pins on the lower (largest) ring making sure that the wire is in the smaller whole notch closest to the clothes pin spring. Then put the next row over the two smaller rings of the wreath also making sure you are clipping then into the small notches.<br />
<br />
Next I took a bottle of brown paint and brushed paint all the way around the center of the flower and let it dry.<br />

You will need to hear up your hot glue gun. I will be adding this pretty dragonfly when I decorate it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I made this burlap bow to decorate my wreath $1.00 from Dollar Tree for enough to make 3 bows<br />
The dragonflies were two in a pack for $1.00<br />

These pretty purple flowers and sweet Sunflowers were $1.00 per bush from Dollar Tree<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Once I hot glued my decorations to the Sunflower wreath, it cam out so sweet,<br />
boy I really need to paint my door!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

But despite my ugly door, the wreath looks very nice.<br />

Now for the Card we will be creating.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Staying with the Sunflower theme, I created this 4 fold card. Sorry this came out blurry. But you get the idea.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQX99S5NZonjFpRkPi-mXXcEoqz8ylACi4PIXVaJNH2-WIi4X_V6-UYh86lO1gy-6XfXd51c9bT_bVBhxPH1CHnUgeAWFEVy01PQ1AiBXKIXcGRH8tdlfuY6l_MCGsKpRbb-joWl_Ntjg/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="425" data-original-width="402" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQX99S5NZonjFpRkPi-mXXcEoqz8ylACi4PIXVaJNH2-WIi4X_V6-UYh86lO1gy-6XfXd51c9bT_bVBhxPH1CHnUgeAWFEVy01PQ1AiBXKIXcGRH8tdlfuY6l_MCGsKpRbb-joWl_Ntjg/s640/010.JPG" width="604" /></a></div>

Here is another view, this card was so much fun to create. The flowers came form Cricut Cartridge Walk in My Garden. The Picture of the sunflower, I printed from the internet.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Ok, Next is the two page scrapbooking pages we will create.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here are the tow pages side by side. The smaller flowers came from Cricut Cartridge Holiday Cakes, it cuts 5 flowers in one cut. This is also where I cut the green vines that I put the flowers on for the right page.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The flowers on the left are from Walk in my garden again and so are the stems. I layered the flowers to give them the 3-D look putting foam squares to keep them lifted up and over the photo frames so pictures can be added. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
I found some sweet quotes and verses to add and make the pages really special. This is the right page.<br />

Our theme for July will be Summer Snapshot. Our pages are so cute.<br />
I used a few Cricut Cartridges for these pages. Life is a Beach for the Flip Flops and I added some rhinestones to them to give them a little Bling! Plantin Schoolbook for the font. Mickey and Friends for the Film for photos. The cute design at the bottom I got from Paper Lace 2. The little embellishment on the bottom right, I used a circle punch and scraps from other cuts.<br />

I loved making these little Flip Flops<br />
<br />
The wavy water designed paper was cut with Paper Lace 2, the picture frames came from Mickey and Friends. The embellishment on the top right side came from a circle punch and scraps from other cuts. I used some pretty ribbon on the picture frame tags and added a rhinestone to each of them.<br />

The design holding the surf boards came from Paper Lace 2. The surf boards came from Life's a Beach and I used the scraps to decorate every other surf boards. The word Smile came form "Going Places". It was fun going using "Cricut Cheet Sheet" to find all the cuts I wanted to use to do these pages.</div>

Next, here is the card we will be creating. This is called a Peak a boo shutter card. I changed it up a little to make it easier to open and close. </div>

I love this quote. I used my Cricut to make the scallop embellishment and added some rhinestones, also I chalked the edges of everything.<br />

When you open this shutter card the little round window begins to open revealing the picture. When you close it, it is hidden again. I made a place inside that you can sign. Printed Thinking of you with my computer and cut it out and chalked it. I used my new We Are Memory Keeper Stub punch. I love it!<br />
<br />

Here you can see the window open all the way. This was so much fun making, I know you will love it too.<br />
<br />
<br />
OK here is the craft we will be making. I stayed with the Summer theme when I created this.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have been looking at all the different wreaths made with flip flops and I really was not excited about them. They are so huge and bulky. So I finally found one that was similar to this. I toned it down and added some cute embellishments I created with my Cricut. When I was a Girl Scout leader we ripped strips of fabric and tied them to the straps and I did the same with ribbons to embellish the first flip flop. Then I found a scripture I liked and printed it with my computer and framed it a couple of times. I did the same thing with the phase for the second flip flop and then added the sun glasses and pink flamingo. I made a couple of layered flowers and added rhinestones to them I made another layered phase for the third flip flop and then for the last one I made this Sun cut the shadow in black then the main sun cut in yellow and then cut circles of yellow and put a foam square to pop it out for that 3-D look. Then I cut a sweet green salamander. I chalked most of the items and added googly eyes to the flamingo and salamander. All of this was hot glued to a doubled 12 X 3 1/2 inch strip of cardboard you could use wood or chipboard. and I used a large brad to go through that all and the ribbon that I used to make the hanger. It is hanging on my dirty front door, but it looks so good!<br />
<br />
Well there you are. Hope to see you come Saturday July 15th!<br />

This is our craft for tomorrow, When you come and make this album, you will receive enough Graphic 45 Precious Memories paper to complete this album.

You don't have to make yours like mine, You take your paper and do your own thing!<br />

On the left I created a pocket at the bottom and flap at the top to resemble an envelope. I used a ribbon to hold it shut.<br />

<br />

I wanted to use more of this beautiful Graphic45 "Time To Flourish" Collection. Our pages have 6 spots this time for photos. I have created 3-D flowers and embellishments with my Cricut Die Cut machine. Some blue ribbon from my stash and some rhinestones to add a little bling. This page was simple to make, and looked a little boring till I added the embellishments and bling.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I cut the word "Spring" with my Cricut and used the shadow button to give it a little pop.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicsHjamzO62act_TCeXkndkJu80HNW2GuG-ZuVT4VQKIcdNJwRp04RLwN38kNDeDSQw0e8KiLA8_GKvCEmeq8SEesZYP7WxRd3osHE2qGU5vpI03a08NYtOTAS2l3cO1Uyto2y1YtPhS8/s1600/IMG_0134.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicsHjamzO62act_TCeXkndkJu80HNW2GuG-ZuVT4VQKIcdNJwRp04RLwN38kNDeDSQw0e8KiLA8_GKvCEmeq8SEesZYP7WxRd3osHE2qGU5vpI03a08NYtOTAS2l3cO1Uyto2y1YtPhS8/s640/IMG_0134.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
Here is just one of the embellishments I added. I used some little square foam stickers to make the flowers 3-D and the little blue and yellow design is layered. then I added the leaves and rhinestone.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkkWJ-RXLvZ1bpKZMAypDpsCOnAh4r_VNgmComP3FUiWSIjJ7hqnx60tIcDg6ZHjRJxthSRckkv_xmGMrzl4GEoXzPuqMpK1a10bE7617mifddrbnBQQuOXx9Jv51AYsx_jJkXbKApOKY/s1600/IMG_0135.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkkWJ-RXLvZ1bpKZMAypDpsCOnAh4r_VNgmComP3FUiWSIjJ7hqnx60tIcDg6ZHjRJxthSRckkv_xmGMrzl4GEoXzPuqMpK1a10bE7617mifddrbnBQQuOXx9Jv51AYsx_jJkXbKApOKY/s640/IMG_0135.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
I found this scripture on line and printed it using the font I liked and cut it out and added layers in the contrasting colors I needed, then I used foam stickers to make it 3-D. the flower, leaves and blue and yellow design have foam too to give it that 3-D look.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLcsZzZJcS27I3TxGvTzuz73Wcy6pa6xylTSFmO9J8rSumm9RScQnZXP6X1ctr8kLR8JzTURw28uQoWKmzPQPZdIIjfmOP3v1vHRorGAOpJ3GdjSSAPhpIfwHI3RoqojLrnKzalw4T3QE/s1600/IMG_0136.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="576" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLcsZzZJcS27I3TxGvTzuz73Wcy6pa6xylTSFmO9J8rSumm9RScQnZXP6X1ctr8kLR8JzTURw28uQoWKmzPQPZdIIjfmOP3v1vHRorGAOpJ3GdjSSAPhpIfwHI3RoqojLrnKzalw4T3QE/s640/IMG_0136.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
And finally these are done in the same style as the other flowers using foam squares oh, I chalk most everything. I love the way it makes things look. If you are not familiar with using chalk or ink. Make two of something and use it on one and not on the other and you will want to chalk everything. "-) I added the rhinestones to finish it off. It came out so cute.<br />
Hope you will join us for food, crafts and fun.<br />

It was requested that I do a "Spring" theme. So all of the May projects are bursting with flowers, scripture and quotes about Spring.<br />

This a simple stair step style card. I used my Cricut die cut machine for all the flowers and the center card holders. It makes little cut outs to slip in the cards and hold them in place. You could even change the quotes if you wanted to say something different. Perhaps a Birthday or Friend sentiment.<br />
<br />

I added a ribbon and bow from my stash, and some different size rhinestones to add some bling. Then last I added some leaves also cut with my Cricut die cut machine. I love this machine!<br />

I am partial to birds since I married one, and 7Gypsies has this cool paper with birds that I have used here and there throughout the album. That cool paper with the butterfly is glossy and I added that tuck band using the "Time to Flourish" from Graphic45.<br />
<br />

From the left to right, I used 7Gypsies with the pretty bird cage, Graphic45 " Time To Flourish", then on the center flaps I used 7Gypsies cut in half so when the flaps are closed you can see the whole picture, and behind the flaps is glossy green design and I created a pocket for photos with Graphic45 "Time To Flourish", next is glossy paper with yellow flowers and a tuck spot, then again on small flap I used 7Gypsies.<br />

My anger is when I have to buy more than I want, to get the ones I do want, and the unreasonable prices they charge. I decided for the second year in a row, that I would create my own and save money that could go towards gifts for my graduate. So Here is what I did. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">The first photo is the Graduation Announcement. I chose the word</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">s and numbers from my computer and printed them out, cut them and framed them with the school colors. I used my texture tool and my Cricut die cut machine, and a little ribbon and a small rhinestone. </span><br />

This is a combination of a tri-fold card and a Gate card style in one<br />
I cut the cute flower from "Flower Shoppe Cricut Cartridge and the leaves from the cartridge Creative Cards. I put a little rhinestone in the center and used foam squares to add a little 3-D. The quote I found online printed it on white card stock, chalked the edges and matted it in black. This card was created using scraps I had laying around just waiting to become something pretty.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The inside of the card has been matted and I found another sweet quote to use. Remember when you use a quote and the author's name is provided, you must give them credit. This card was fun. I hope you think so too. I wander who I will send it to.<br />
Remember to reserve your seat for this event. You can even invite a friend. Can't wait to see you.<br />

The quotes I got online. I printed them on white card stock and framed them in black.<br />

These were so fun to make. Can't wait to share them with you.<br />

We will start off with a copy of the Graphic 45 Mixed Media Box, you can purchase this box in black and beige, maybe white I have not checked. I made these myself using black card stock and recycled chipboard. With a Girl Scout Leader background, I am always trying to fine ways to recycle and save money too. You can purchase these at most craft stores. Walmart.com has the cheapest I have seen.<br />

<br />
Here are the pages and our theme for this month is Spring.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used a lot of different techniques on these pages.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
These cute flowers where made with my Cricut die cut machine and I rolled the petals and layered them to give then that 3-D look, then put a rhinestone sicker in the center. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDNT1uKxna7G_1lSgkYAqGyVIBlT2hhUmZvfSC4OckMacPg3c59ePn_QMZxW4-8keR1e79IYEIywog3wFf-xjJzstGeLJsvGLoO_MiMCzYNnIipQhYZc_rFpfpGHaAcVXFgvktrldIFO0/s1600/IMG_0005.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDNT1uKxna7G_1lSgkYAqGyVIBlT2hhUmZvfSC4OckMacPg3c59ePn_QMZxW4-8keR1e79IYEIywog3wFf-xjJzstGeLJsvGLoO_MiMCzYNnIipQhYZc_rFpfpGHaAcVXFgvktrldIFO0/s640/IMG_0005.JPG" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I used a burlap braided ribbon I bought at Walmart for the banner rope.Then I hand cut different size strips of card stock and cut the bottom to look like flags, then layered them and used foam squares on the last layer to create this pretty banner.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF49L5kD0EEvVunW_Oz7kCLgWcr8cqPgB5kYNbqtmGDx4939vapcZR02QEjgbfcZBwnIp1vUDw4NbM0E916qnBrda8fIgkfOdjKI2D3qUU1bf0CHNXCN3spX09zRtmmxWyFBJ61_wPfXA/s1600/IMG_0001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="604" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF49L5kD0EEvVunW_Oz7kCLgWcr8cqPgB5kYNbqtmGDx4939vapcZR02QEjgbfcZBwnIp1vUDw4NbM0E916qnBrda8fIgkfOdjKI2D3qUU1bf0CHNXCN3spX09zRtmmxWyFBJ61_wPfXA/s640/IMG_0001.JPG" width="640" /></a> I found this quote on line and printed it on white card stock, cut it out and layered it with coordinating card stock and used a foam square to pop it out. The word "Spring" I cut from my Cricut die cut machine and added a little yellow flower I bought at Micheal's in a package of 15 or so, from their $1.00 ben.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
On the second page I used a Martha Stewart punch. The paper I used for these pages is a K&Company card stock pack of two sided paper.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY8wG0ff2dRQ7EwwA3gQzAs95KvZ5E-kBa26V1k-TTIrUC8tyUeQ9rjrQPkuv9DTnC-GXHaSdYrm4PD8HEbDOJgpTym0I9YAVToppu6J4CTITy3oJj543N7vgRGaNERYR4KJ4FUgRY0h0/s1600/IMG_0002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="610" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY8wG0ff2dRQ7EwwA3gQzAs95KvZ5E-kBa26V1k-TTIrUC8tyUeQ9rjrQPkuv9DTnC-GXHaSdYrm4PD8HEbDOJgpTym0I9YAVToppu6J4CTITy3oJj543N7vgRGaNERYR4KJ4FUgRY0h0/s640/IMG_0002.JPG" width="640" /></a> I added flags that have been framed with black card stock. Then I took squares of paper and layered them for a cute design. You can see this design on the front of the paper pack. I added another quote from the Internet. When you used someones quotes if they have their name on it be sure to give them credit. If not your free to use it without the authors name.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7-Ubt_IEVxyOvnAEfX3tO7XU6Dza9eX1AMXTBH0BeAL9CR32uwDAZZHkoaMDyXBY4lM2Ojld2aTkB-ws1c4unB2kWjEvrNpfYlhqONw6lpJn9YBFi-NmfPsxIt4i2cTYztpnDJN4DCY/s1600/IMG_0006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7-Ubt_IEVxyOvnAEfX3tO7XU6Dza9eX1AMXTBH0BeAL9CR32uwDAZZHkoaMDyXBY4lM2Ojld2aTkB-ws1c4unB2kWjEvrNpfYlhqONw6lpJn9YBFi-NmfPsxIt4i2cTYztpnDJN4DCY/s640/IMG_0006.JPG" width="640" /></a>I used pearl stickers to bling this page and I purchased them at Walmart. They are attached in strings so you can line them up easily.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the cute spring card. I used white card to make my card base, layered with solid purple 1/4 smaller then the size of my card base. Then I chose this design from the same K&Company paper pack and cut it 1/4 inch smaller then the last layer and attached my ribbon first so I could fold the ends under and then attach it to the purple layer. I found a small flower stamp I had and stamped purple flowers and on white card stock scraps. I cut squares around them and then glued them on purple scraps and cut 1/4 around them. I added a rhinestone to each flower and then attached them with foam squares. I also found a cute quote and printed it on white card stock, cut around it and then cut the end to look like a flag. Then glued it on purple scraps and attached it with a foam square and there you have it.</div>

Than I put this little metal bow in the center of the front flap of my purse for even more detail.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

When you open the purse you can see that you have lots of surprises inside.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Pockets and tuck spots all through this album. You can make as many as you please.<br />

I really filled my album and still have lots of room to fit in my photos.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here I have shown one side of one tri-fold page<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So many ways to decorate your album. I used flags to create a tuck spot. You can use anything you like to make these simply place to tuck a photo or journaling card under them.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBvPyXWAGB0y4nL-CswPY52KxfnvwvT1JrE0r9xAlaqb5rHxPkUnWyf4y2VrLN6bZiiIHr2LIY5Wvm_c_hFyijtE1X3CHAOs8c7D7ZlAD4DR4HFovOnibGVOgULXw-pYIMyBn3tJaZllY/s1600/IMG_2510.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="508" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBvPyXWAGB0y4nL-CswPY52KxfnvwvT1JrE0r9xAlaqb5rHxPkUnWyf4y2VrLN6bZiiIHr2LIY5Wvm_c_hFyijtE1X3CHAOs8c7D7ZlAD4DR4HFovOnibGVOgULXw-pYIMyBn3tJaZllY/s640/IMG_2510.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>

Here you can see that all of the 4 Tri-folds have pockets for inserts that side in and out. I put little tabs on them to make it easy to slide in and out.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This album has four pages on each side, two large and two small pages. I started on the right with the small page. You can decorate any way you please. I put a thin pocket at the bottom on the left, layered and inserted one of the note cards from my paper pack. On the right I layered and framed Happy Birthday embellishment and made a tuck spot, where you just adhere one side or top or bottom and then you can stick something up under it. I framed and tucked another note card. </div>

Next is an example of a large page. The Large pages have a pocket on one side, I made two large mats for photos, and took one of the cards from the pack and framed it. I placed them in the side pocket. On the other side of this folded page is a Belly Band. After decorating I placed a photo mat under the Belly Band. </div>
