Mini Albums and the new paper line Country Drive

My daughter got baptized this past weekend. I was so proud of her cute little self! To remember the event, , I bought one of my talented friend Tiffani's mini-albums that she designed. It turned out so sweet and got many, many compliments! I especially enjoyed how easy her kit was and really enjoyed myself not having to come up with a mini album myself!

Simple crafting = happy me!

 

 

 

Of course, the beautiful pictures that my talented photographer friend Stephanie took of her did make the book I think!  I'm so blessed by wonderful people in my life! 

And, on another note, I'm super excited to tell you that Tiff just released her new paper line Country Drive through Echo Park.  I got to see her working on this line and I've always been impressed how easily her artistic abilities come to her.  I'm enjoying the bright and fresh colors and Tiff's signature clean lines.  I can't wait to get some of this paper for myself! 

Bridal Shower - The Advice Book

This is the last installment about the bridal shower.  Not wanting to do bridal shower games but needing something for the guests to do, I made an advice book for the Mrs. to be.  Mini books are really quick and easy to put together, yet bring lots of compliments. 

Based off a previous design, I put together this book using Teresa Collin's wedding paper.  The black, white and creamy tan paired beautifully with pops of lavender.  

The guests left their comments for the bride and then I filled in the rest of the blank pages with wallet sized photos from the shower. 

 I was really pleased with how it turned out.   This flower page was one of my favorites.  

Recognize the butterflies?  Same as the one from my chandelier, obviously  made in lavender.  These butterflies work beautifully in your everyday crafting.  I especially love them with the little gems.
