Masculine Fishing Card

Here's a card and picture frame that I made with a fishing theme!

Here are some word books that I've made as orders for people and also as gifts. Most of the Word and Name albums I make don't include pictures, but I always include photo mats so that the receiver can put their own photos in.

This was a shower gift for my friend. It was actually the very first name album I made! I think it's probably one of my all-time faves.

This is an album I made for my friend Rebekah, who is having a baby boy, due in September!

The "It's a Boy" flap on the right opens up to reveal a photo mat where she can put a picture of little Aidan!

This was one of my favorite name albums that I've done! It was a special order from the craft show. I think I work best when I have pictures to include in the albums. It helps me personalize it to the max!

I custom printed the "Statesmen" background print on acid-free cardstock, especially for this album! I did the same thing for the THS and AHS albums you'll see below...so these are definitely one-of-a-kind, as they have my own custom background designer prints!!! :-)

This THS book was given to one of the THS football coaches last year.

I usually make the TEAM books pretty neutral with not a lot of embellishments, in case someone wants to give it to a guy!

I made an additional one of the AHS ones as a special order for an AHS alumni who is now a teacher at the school.

Halloween Mini Album

Just another album I created for the craft show!!! As always, there are more pages to this album, but I just didn't feel like uploading them all! Too bad we don't celebrate Halloween or I would've kept this for myself, lol.

Christmas Tag Album

This is a tag album I created for the Christmas craft show. I put a picture of William and I into the front to show people how the photo goes into that area. This album held A LOT! Each of the flowers you see popping out of the top and right side are actually tags that slip out, which have even more photo mats and journaling spots!

School Days Album

Here's another album that I made for the craft show. I used my Bind It All for the first time with this little book! I love that little machine! There are more pages to this album, but I thought I'd just show a couple here.

Memories Tag Album

This little photo album can hold up to 38 photos!!! There is a photo album on each page, plus each pocket holds a tag that has a photo mat on the front and back. I made this to go into the craft show.

Flip Flop Albums

I made these flip flop albums my 3 best friends from high school. Last year (2008), all four of us turned 30! None of us went to our 10 year high school reunion the year before, so we took a reunion/birthday trip to a beachfront condo! It was loads of fun and I wish we could do that every year. I made these albums for them as gifts.

Each album is made from an actual pair of flip flops!
