Paper Bag Mini Album

Well This little Paper bag Album has been on the go for almost a year.

I finished the Album then took awhile to find the right photos to go into it and make the mats for them all.

Its been sitting finished on my craft table for the last 3 months waiting for me to take all the photos and blog about it.

Well I had to move my craft room yesterday and bring everything from our spare bedroom down to the front room ( I will blog about the move tomorrow, with photos)

So I had the Album in my hand and thought Wendy Do it now before I forget again

So here it is

Front cover Handsome guy with the hat is our grandson Keaton.

Flower I made by cutting the petal shapes onto Brown card joining 4 layers together with a gold brad

Then spraying with gold shimmer spray and sprinkling with glamour dust.

The frame was cut on the cricut using a Penny Duncan file

 The paper I used for the Album came from DCWV Blossoms & butterflies stack.

I have made two pockets on each side to pop some mats with photos of Keaton on both sides

 Again I have made some more pockets to slip in photo mats staring Keaton trying to stand on his head and helping Bampy sweep in the garden 

 Another pocket added to the page with slip in photos and tags, the other page has another if Penny`s frames with my two sleeping beauties , Keaton and his daddy worn out after playing on the skate board that you can just see in the first photo

 More tags for Journalling and a little fold out button envelope

 More photos Keats with his lion puppet frighting  someone with a loud roar, the other after his bath

 Keats in the bath with bubbles on his hair and riding his train out the back last summer, since then he has moved up onto a bigger balance bike

 Mor pockets with him sleeping again, and him in his first summer cap like his daddy, he did not take it off all day

( very like his daddy whose hat is permanently stuck on his head  even in the house)

 Back view and the bottom photo shows the double sided mats that slip inside each page opening

These have some of my favourite winter photos of Keaton in his first snow just before Christmas.

Thanks for looking

Keaton-Jay

A few shots of my spotty grandson Keaton over the weekend.

We thought he was coming out in chicken pox but only a few spots appered over his chin and bottom, none on his arms and trunk of his body.

He had been away with use a few days before and spents a few days swimming in the pool.

So it might be that the chlorine in the water has irritated  his skin a bit.

Its all cleared up now

 This top photo is of the little darling posing for me, after he saw me with the camera, he was giving me a big cheesy smile

All the bottom ones are photos I snapped without him noticing I had the camera.

He was watching scooby do at the time

I do so love the snaps that I get of him unnoticed.

I wonder what he is thinking

Mini Album #2

Here is the second of the Mini albums I am making for the great gr andmothers of my grandson Kearton-Jay.

It has the same Layouts as in the other mini Ixn the post below this.

They are Digi Scrap book layouts that I have been making for a larger Albums for me and his other Nanna since before he was born.

This one is all blue and white, I also later added ribbons to the one in the post below.

The mats are cut using one of Penny Duncan's shaplies files

Thanks for looking

Mini Album

I am making 4 mini Albums for the great grandmother of my Grandson Keaton-Jay.

I have printed off 4x4 photos of my digital scrapbook layouts, and Matted these onto 5x5 card stock

the cover is 6x6 chipboard , covered with DCWV scrapbook papers.

The fame on the front was cut on my cricut machine using one of Penny Duncan's cut file, There is a link to Penny`s blog in my blog list

 Here are a few of the pages.

So that you can get an idea of how it all looks

If you would like to see all the layouts that I have added to my mini look

This is the link to them all on my scrap blog

Keaton

We have been enjoying the fine weather with our grandson Keaton, He has been playing out the back, and enjoying watching the fish in the pond with his grampy

Here he is in the summerhouse, he can walk around the table and stand unaided but is very reluctant to walk on his own, needs to hold onto the tip of our fingers, when we slip it out of his hand he sits on the floor.
he is 10 months old how fast he is growing

another spooky layout

Just had to do another layout of Keaton, This one is 12x12 and done in the traditional style, The card stock is Gemstones, the wording and embellishments were cut on my Cricut, using SCAL software

Digital layout

Here is a quick digital layout that I did of Keaton, in his little Nipper costume The kit was a free download on daisy trail, the software that I use is serifs digital scrapbook artist. I just love using this for my digi layout
