  63. Clare, I'm absolutely speechless! First of all, "The Olde Curiosity Shoppe" has to be the greatest paper with which to work and is my MOST favorite in the Graphic 45 line (although with the newest release of "A Ladies' Diary" it has competition). I cannot tell you how much I adore your memory box. It has so many great details and tags and features and I could go on and on. I'll be studying this project for quite some time! I especially like how you designed the accordion fold album by combining the pages. Thank you very much for starting my day with such a delightful learning experience!

    ReplyDelete

September - Kit of the Month

Morning everyone, I'm really excited to be sharing our latest Kit of the Month with you today.  New for September this little Flip Flap album and its co ordinating case has been altered in papers from the Blue Stars collection by Stamperia.  There's a subtle festive feel to the papers and gorgeous whimsical fairies and cut outs adorn the pages.
