I actually made a project that doesn't use the Funky Trees....

I know you're in shock

This actually wasn't my idea...

A couple years ago there was an website that sold online classes called Heart in Hands

this was one of their classes, or at least the best I can remember it

You take a composition book and tear out the guts and buy one of those cheap 4x6 photo albums from the $ store and tear out those guts..in this case the picture pockets

annie...get out your glue gun (but don't burn yourself) and glue said guts into the composition book

cover with lots of cute paper and gaffer tape and EAD DESIGNS VINYL until you cover up all your ugly glue and PRESTO!!

You just made a really cute gifty photo album thingie!!!

Scrapbook complete in about 30 minutes.

Emily is giving away a $25.00 Gift Certificate to the

On the wings of an Angel...

So there's this challenge going on over at Verve Stamps...

a company I'm ashamed to say I didn't really know anything about other than their sponsorship of the MOJOMonday contests. Anyway...so while I was blurfing yesterday I clicked a button and went to their store...Wow...I'm in trouble

I see some shopping in my immediate future...

and

I happened upon this Encouraging Words challenge

which inspired me to make a few cards

I didn't have any Verve Stamps to use, but that's not a requirement.

Here's what I came up with for today.

Supplies Used: Basic Grey Bittersweet Paper, Heidi Swap Angel Wing Stamps, Cat's Life Press Sentiment

I have been looking for a way to use those angel wings forever. I love them!

Speaking of Angels...

there's a book coming out tomorrow that I think is going to be HUGE...

Beyond HUGE probably

Don't know what I'm going to do with them yet so you'll have to stay tuned..

This layout is from when we went to BUSCH GARDENS Europe about a month ago.
