Design Studio & Wordbook Basics - Part 2

Sorry there is no intro. to this video. It just takes off and repeats a few seconds of the end of part 1.

My First Video Tutorial - Meander Book

Ok, here it goes, LOL! I'm working my way up to doing more detailed videos. I've got to move faster so I can get more in. I've got a lot of improving to do. Just takes practice, I guess. Let me know what you think.

Meander Books

These would make great stocking stuffers or fillers
for gift baskets. If you have a daughter like mine,
there are always lots of friends to get gifts for at
Christmas....this would be perfect and very inexpensive.
Just decorate accordingly.

I will have a video tutorial posted soon showing how to make these books.

I am uploading the video now, but it's taking Forever!! :) In the meantime

here are a few photos from my Christmas and fall books.

Pull out tag for journaling

My Video Introduction

Ok, here it is.... My first video! Thanks to Robyn aka MyPinkStamper, I now have my video posted directly on my blog....Thank you Robyn! This is my very first video, ever and I've got a lot of work to do. I would Love to know what you think as long as you're not too harsh, LOL. :) TFL!

I've Got A Surprise!!!!

My husband bought a Flip for me today. Now I can try my hand at making video tutorials for you. It's going to take some practice and I'll probably be rough, at best! Regardless, I hope to bring to life the process of making a wordbook or shape album. Stay tuned! :)

It's Time for a Blog Update

According to my husband, anyway! :) He informed me my blog background just looked "BLAH"!!! Gotta Love his honesty! ;) I have decided I agree and am going to make some changes. Just wanted to warn you....if you stop by and things just don't look right or match up like they should.......I'm working on it. Not exactly sure what I'm going to do and may have to try several layouts before I get it like I want....we'll see.

Pumpkin Pickin' Chipboard Album

Perfect for all your fall and pumpkin patch
pictures. I had so much fun designing this
album.....maybe because I Love fall!

Cartridges used.....GBS, CU, DC, SYI, MW,
PDDU, Pooh and Friends. Please note some
of the cuts I added to the pages as embellishments
are not part of the .cut file.
You can click on pictures to enlarge. :)


Lots of dimension to this book.

I Love my little JD tractor.... :)

Sign is from P&F cartridge and is not on the .cut file.

I did make one big mistake on this book.......I did not

get my holes lined up correctly when punching out

for the binding.....Ugh, Ugh! Just don't look at that

part, LOL. ;)

I made the pumpkin wagon in DS with the help

of three different cartridges.

This page has a removeable tag.

I added a couple of extra pages. Note there is

nothing welded to the side so you can leave them

out if you like.

I Love this white cardstock with the red swirls.

It gives me the feeling of a breezy day....perfect for

fall. I also like the aged, shabby look of it.

I really like how the barn turned out.

Pumpkin is a dollar stamp from M's.

I Love this sun from Doodlecharms. I use it

all the time.....it's just so Cute and Fun! Ok,

.cut file gave the scarecrow shoes, but when making

the book I decided to add "straw" for the feet. Adjust

file accordingly. He doesn't line up perfect, but I'm ok

with it.

Lots of room for pictures and journaling.

Background of photo mat is stamped with Versa Mark

using the Autumn Blessings stamp. May not show up

in the picture.
