Some Girl Fun mini album

My DD is turning 5 next Sunday and I find myself doing LO's that record her personality. I did a mini album for her and I only used pics from this year. It's perfect on the Coffee Table for the birthdayguest to browse through.

I'm happy with how it turned out.
Title: Some Girl fun

the journaling box says: Waterfairy

the journaling boxes says: The Scrapper and oh my what is the english word...
the journaling box says: The Funny Face and The Ballerina
the journaling box says: The one who love to play and The Fishingman

There are two pages missing since I did not have enough ribbon and they have pics of her dressing up and on the other page says Beautiful.

Pictures taken from Jan-Aug

For this album I used a Rusty Pickle 8*8 acrylic album. The stamps are Autumn Leaves clear stamps. Ink black StazOn. Rusty Pickle Chocolate Kisses papers and Rusty Pickle chipboards. Making Memories paint. The ribbon is Annie Griffin. Letters American Crafts and Making Memories. Buttons Lansing. I used the Home Accent cartridge to cut the top and bottom papers and also the journaling box.

Tracking my progress and story

I'm going to use my Summer Vaction to start again my gym routine and clean out the junk food etc. Since I changed jobs the Summer of 2005 I have gained alot of extra weight. Now is time to get rid it ! I want to track my progress and record this story because I want to remember this period of my life.

I'm going to use a Rusty Pickle mini album for this book. It has really many pages so it's perfect for this project. I used my fav paperline from Pink Pailsee for the cover. It has numbers on it so perfect :-) The transparancy is MME. The flower is Prima and the chipboard is Creative Imaginations. Title letters are Making Memores and American Tradtions (I think...). The ribbons are Love Elsie, Making Memories, Anne Griffin and the pink one is from a store called Sösterne Grene. I uses Ranger Ink to distress it.

I wanted to use a positive title for this book. "Working on my Body Image" sounds good to me since that is what I'm doing.

The plan is it do a weekly entry and I want to mix journaling with pics. I hope this will help me to stay on track !!!

A Clear scrap mini album - The 8 wonder

It seems like I really got my scrap energy back or maybe it has something to do with the fact that my DD is with her granparents on a vaction for 6 days !

Anyhow I did this acrylic album using a Clear Scraps funky heart album. All the papers are Scenic Route Laurel. Stamps are Autumn Leaves. Flowers Prima. Chipboard letters Bazzill. Some of the ribbon is Making Memories, Basic grey and others I can't remember.

I love the fact that I used "old" supplies for this project. I loved every LO I saw where the Laurel paper was used and finally I bought it but never used it until now.

The pics were taken earlier this year. I took my DD these Caves called Maríucaves. We have been there few times before and she loves it everytime. We played Princess and Dragon game guess who was the Dragon. I distressed the papers and the flowers since I wanted it have the dirty mud feeling.

The title is: The 8th wonder ....my DD you see :-)

I'm going to try this out

So everybody seem to be doing this scrapblog thing so why not me. I'm going to give this a try and see how it works out. I may have to write this in icelandic and english...what do you think.

I'm so proud and honored that I got two LO's featured on the Queen & Co blog...it feels like my 15 mintues or something like that. Go and check it out http://queenandcompany.typepad.com/queen_co_indulge_your_cre/

My amazing friend and scrapper Kathie http://kathied.blogspot.com/ who is on the Rusty Pickle design team (lucky her) inspired me to buy a really small mini album from RP sometime last year. I have been looking at it for ages now not knowing what to do with it. It finally hit me it was perfect for a My Family album because it's small enough to carry in your purse.

I used Rusty pickle album. All the papers are from Pink Paislee http://www.happyscrappinscrapbooking.com/pinkpaisleespringfling.html I can't get enought of this paper line. I think it's my fav paper line today. I used Jenni Bowlin journaling boxes for the quotes http://www.happyscrappinscrapbooking.com/jbsMP255-p-jennibowlin.html The flowers are Prima and the flower brads are Queen & co.

I used 6 pics and 6 quotes about family for this album.
The quotes are:
-In families people give each other hugs and are there for one another
-All you need is Love
-A Family is like a Flower. To flourish it needs love and time spent with it.
-Having some place to go is home. Having someone to love is family. Having both is a blessing.
-A Love is like a Circle it never ends
-If anyone asks what your accomplishments are...show them a picture of your children.
