Sneak Peak Friday

Hi All...I am linking up with Sneak Peak Friday this week I've been waiting all week to post these creations... mainly because they were a gift that I sent with my Pastor and his wife to give to a friend this week... I hope they didn't forget... and if they do, I guess the friend gets a sneak peak at her gift!

Anyhoo, I made two more photo albums, one for a friend and one for her daughter's birthday. The first is in orange because that is said friend's favorite color :) I also experimented with a glitter stamp kit that she gave me on her photo album, so I hope she likes it!!! Her daughter's photo album has a more tropical flare to it as her room is a beachy/surf board theme.

Necessity is the mother of invention - I used the flower instead of an "A" because I didn't have any more "A"s!!! Thankfully it seemed to come out pretty cute :)

Supplies:

Paper: cardstock, I believe the patterned paper for the second photo album came from a My Mind's Eye set, the papers in the first set I believe came from either K and Company or DWCW

Embellishments: Ribbon for both albums from Target dollar aisle, Glitter leaves on first album from a Martha Stewart glitter stamp kit; Gems on second album from Hero Arts, Flower in outside of second album from Memento, flower brad from Secret Pal

Sentiments: Sentiment on outside of first album came from the same paper pack: K and Company/DWCW Set; I used alphabet stickers for the name on the inside; for the second album, the name on the outside was created with alphabet stamps from American Crafts; Happy Birthday sentiment inside from alphabet stickers and a flower from my Secret Pal

...and I think that's it.... Hope that you all have a wonderful weekend!!!

Sneak Peek of the Week

Well, I mostly finished these things last weekend, but as I didn't have a chance to link up with In the Studio's Sneak Peek of the Week, I thought I'd share one last time my biggest crafting project to date, a custom order that I finished up for my boss.

If you have already seen these, sorry :)  I haven't really crafted much this week. It's been a rough one, but I will most definitely be making something tonight while the hubby is at worship practice as I have a wedding card to make for Sunday and a Congratulations card for a guy at work whose wife just had a baby!

I hope to also finish off a couple more photo albums, one for my boss as a thank you for the order and a couple others to put up in my Etsy shop.

Enjoy!

P.S. You can find the original posts for these projects here and here.

Have a wonderful weekend! I know mine will be good because hubby scheduled us massages for Saturday! :) :) :)
