OK, feel like I'm really still sorting out my style. I think some of this card is my "newly found" style - I love the TH mannequin, and the paper, and the flowers. I think I really NEED that little rosette die tho. Yep, that's my next purchase.
This is a card I made for my BFF who had minor surgery yesterday. Just wanted to let her know I'm thinking of her. And who better to send a card to -- she always raves about everything!! Ah, what a good BFF!

Graphic 45
I love Graphic 45's springtime paper, and spent a lot of time just staring at it before using it. I made this card for my DIL and stepson. They just moved into their first house and I wanted something "home-y" and happy. Plus my DIL loves fairies so it worked out well.
ANOTHER Baby Album
I am loving making these baby albums. This is the cutest so far, I think. I made this one with chipboard, covered and then decorated. I bound it with my BIA.
The nursery was decorated in greens and browns and had a big monkey painted by his mom and dad on the wall - with his name "Bodie" across the wall. Was very cute.

BABY ALBUM
OK, be patient with me!! This will be lots of pics ... My niece is having a baby girl - TODAY - I got up to a message that she is in labor and about ready to deliver. And I just finished her book yesterday! She is the sweetest person in the world and has had such a hard time carrying a pregnancy to full term, so this new little baby girl is sooooo loved already!
For this album, I took a book of nursery rhymes and altered it. I left the cover as it was cuz I liked it. I tore out quite a few pages, then glued some together. I ran a line of glue with my hot glue gun, then folded the two pages together - this helps the book stay together. Then I bunched up about 10 pages and put them together by gluing one of the pages that I had torn out back on the pages -- very hard to explain, really easy to do -- hopefully the pics will explain!
This phrase was cut from the Heritage cart, and of course stickled!!
I love tags and use them wherever possible. I made some of these, and some I received in swaps.
