Mini Albums To Go

Happy 2008 |

Welcome back. I hope you all enjoyed a festive holiday season and are ready to take on a new 2008. My holidays were filled with house paint, a hammer and tradesmen...Yep, we moved house just 3 days before Christmas and for two months solid we were dumping rubbish, cleaning, preping and painting, walls, carpeting floors, chatting with my new best friend who works at Bunnings Hardware, sanding floors, cleaning brushes and dumping more rubbish . It wasn't so bad though, every now and then we managed to get in a little sleep and food :)
On with the show. If you have any questions, comments or if you just want to say 'Hi' then get in touch with me at peata@scrapbook-crazy.com
Have Fun,

5 Quick Valentine's mini album ideasLove is in the air and it is time to pull out your red and black patterned papers and those heart shaped pretties to throw together in a mini album all about the love. If you haven't gotten started already you still have a bit of time up your sleeve but you better not leave it too late. To help you on your way, here are the top five themes on my most wanted list of Valentine's day mini albums.

Below are a few voucher ideas for him and for her. Some are romantic and some are a little cheeky. For your own vouchers think of an activity, romantic or otherwise, that your partner might appreciate and make a voucher for it. These vouchers can only be used once but they can be redeemed at any time, they never expire!

There appears to be a lot of digital photo sites that now allow you to share your photos online in funky themed mini books and slideshows. Gone are the days of simply emailing a tonne of photos to every person in your address book and bringing your internet connection to a grinding halt. Some of these sites even allow you to purchase a hard copy photobook filled with your own photos, they are just like mini scrapbook albums and look just as good. I am yet to purchase one of these little coffee table books but I am definitely eager to try one.

Pick of the BunchThis months pic of the bunch was created by Katherine Skinner. A funky little mini album of a vacation in Hawaii...sooo lucky.
As you can see from the pictures here This nifty little accordion album is folded in the most unusual way. Fortunately for us Katherine has shared her methods for making this diamond folding accordion album here
You can also see the rest of Katherine's album here As always we would really love to see what you've been up to. So make sure you share some of your mini album mojo with the rest of us and send me an email of your latest scrapbook mini album caper along with photos of your album and yourself (if you like) I will pick out an email or two each month to feature on my newsletter... So don't be shy now and send your stuff to peata@scrapbook-crazy.com with 'Mini album submission' in the subject box. note. I don't wanna get into any trouble so make sure any submissions are your own work. |
