A simple album for Collin from his darlings. I love how their cute faces peek through the circle transparency on the cover page. The mini album was made with an Accucut die mixing chipboard and acrylic pieces then my trusty Bind-It-All and coils to put it all together.
I wrote little love notes on the back of the October Afternoon wild cards, sewed a pocket with vellum and tucked the notes inside.
Hambly: Circle transparency; Teresa Collins: black ruler paper from Documented collection; Heidi Swapp clock; Jenni Bowlin bingo card; October Afternoon Wild Cards; Studio Calico: Alphabet Paper; KI Memories: red circle paper; Tim Holtz: word tickets. The sun is out so we are off to the pool. Happy Monday!

Everytime you post a handmade album, I envy your Bind-it-All like nobody's business :-)
I don't know if it's too late, but I would reeeeeally love to be included in the Shades of Summer. If this is possible, please let me know!
Thanks, and keep the inspiring, beautiful work comin'!

Great album, Liz! As for last year's SOS, that's sad that not everyone got it. I had lots of fun doing it. Did you even get any of them back?! I donated an album to the cause. Hope it works out better this year.:)
Love coming here to see your freshly squeezed stuff! Great pictures, beautiful LOs, lovely taste!
Gorgeous! I am LOVING the inspiration:) The album is beautiful.
Love it!!! I was bummed I didn't get the shades last summer...I really hope to get in on it this summer!!!

That album is so much more meaningful than a card... and adorable to boot!
I, too, can't wait to sign up for Shades of Summer. It was already going when I started following your blog last year, and I can't wait to get involved this year!
gorgeous mini Elizabeth. had my lo published in CK this month. thought of you when i saw it and had to come over and say hi. thanks for your scrap love for my project, really was a wonderful thing to read.
Looks like summer has begun to set in, its so cold down here, my favourite time of year. Nothing like rugging up.
keep well **hugs**

i'm so glad that you mentioned last year's SOS project. i must put up my hand & admit that i have a pair of them & have had them for the last several months. my husband was diagnosed with cancer about the time my SOS package arrived, and quite honestly, i set the package aside & just forgot about it. so thanks for the gentle reminder to pass those along! you'll have one more set returning to you very soon!
AMAZINGLY cute mini album! You are so creative! Thanks for all of the inspiration! I'll be watching for the SHADES OF SUMMER post!
gorgeous album and pics!
you guys all look like models!! seriouslY>!

The bind-it-all is probably the coolest tool ever created. I love mine!
You definitely have the mini mojo! LOVE, LOVE it!!!
Absolutely beautiful work. Always enjoy seeing your work in Creating Keepsakes, very happy I have come across your blog.
