MONTHLY CROP - June

I almost forgot to take pictures at our June Crop.  Luckily some of my gals that helped with clean up were still there.  Here's what I did get:

 Kelly completed six 2-page layouts using the Blossom papers from Close to My Heart

Yes, we always find time to eat.  

Rita worked on her Seahawk album....GO SEAHAWKS!

Debra's working on her husband's album.

Janey worked on this mini album, and is it beautiful!

Judith working on her last trip.

I was busy preparing for my upcoming  card class and I finished a 2 page layout using flip-flaps.  This layout can hold at least 50 photos.  I'm anxious to share this with you when I get my pictures placed in the photo areas.

MINI ALBUM - Seaside

This darling Mini Album was taught to us at September's Unit meeting by Debbie Bymers.  She used Close to My Heart's Seaside paper packet and several current and retired stamp sets.  To hold it closed, she sewed an elastic band with retired Close to my Heart ribbon.  This mini Album is made with one 12" x 12" piece of cardstock and embellished with scraps from the paper pack.

Everyone made their Mini Album in their own paper choice and we embellished them at home.

This would make a great gift for the Holidays.
