Mini Album: Worth every minute - Part 4

 The airplane in the picture is an embellishment from KI Memories Puffies line.
 The wood veneer camera was a perfect addition to a pocket full of tags ready to be written in.
 The globe is also a part of the KI Puffies line. Heidi Swapp's calendar printables and some Tim Holtz washi tape complete the picture.

Mini Album: Worth every minute - Part 3

 I would like my creation to speak for itself when words fail me.
 Tags are a perfect way to allow the receiver to add their thoughts and/or photos. Little pockets can hold all kinds of memorabilia.

Mini Album: Worth every minute - Part 2


In welcoming someone into our family I wanted to show how home is a relative term. In the way I wrote 'Home is where you are' and added the figures
next to a cozy house.








































Dylusions Postbox RED made the heart mask show perfectly. I enjoy working with all kinds of found objects or leftover chipboard sheets.

Mini Album: Worth every minute - Part 1

 This is a very special project dedicated to the newest addition to our family. The cover may look a little different just because I changed the red-dyed twine for ribbon.

I decided to define the love in this album with hearts on the cover. The word sticker I found was perfect for what I wanted to convey (Worth Every Minute).

My collection of Tim Holtz distress stains came in handy, especially the new metallic one in Bronze.
 The flower was from Amy Tangerine's line but I did embellish it with a gold pearl pen.

 The distressed look came out perfectly since I did not want it to look perfect. I want it to be like an heirloom that they can treasure for a long time.


The inside front cover is a vibrant heart behind the words 'It's all about YOU'. I used some Heidi Swapp calendar printables to make extra memorabilia pockets throughout the album.












I gesso'd the back of said heart and colored it with Dyan Reaveley's  Dylusions pure sunshine mist.


Many more pages follow, so stay tuned!

Sneak peek: Feathering the nest

I tapped into a very special part of myself with this upcoming project. The nest you see is a beautiful charm I found at my local Michaels store.

This was created for a new addition to our family...
