Let's Take A Trip!

We took the baby to visit his grand parents in Alabama last year. This challenge was the perfect opportunity for me to scrap the pictures that I took of him during the car ride. He got bored and to amuse himself, he decided to bite his toes. lol!

I used a designer paper from Pink Paislee's London Market paper pack for my background. The inked paper behind the photos is from K&Co. The font and arrows were cut at 2 1/2" using the Summer Vacation Cricut cartridge. I added some flowers from Sassafras Lass, a Tim Holtz token as a flower center, a car image from Graphic 45, and a label cut using a Spellbinder's die for journaling.

Butterfly Garden Gatefold Mini Album

I am hosting once again our challenge at My Sheri Crafts. I thought of "May Flowers", hence the "Flower Power" theme. :-) The requirement is to use 3-dimensional flowers in a crafting project.

I have started this mini album when Kiko was a baby and finally finished it last week. Yes, it took me almost two years to make it. I was glad that I waited though since I was able to incorporate some die cuts that I made using Cheery Lynn dies. For this album, I used paper from Pink Paislee's Butterfly Garden paper pack. I also added a Melissa Frances designer paper for one of the pages. The flowers and butterflies are from Prima and Recollections, and the gate laser cut is from Maya Road. I got the flowers in the last page from Kim, from one of the swaps in the Cricut message board. I added some lace from my stash, buttons and a cameo from Webster's pages, a Tim Holtz ticket and key, and tags from 7 Gypsies to fill up the pages. The punched butterflies were made using Martha Stewart punches. The crystals and pearls are from Prima, ZVA Creative and The Paper Studio.
