Scraps of Color Dates to Remember Mini Organizer Project

Hi Everybody,

Lately I have been in a mode of finishing up projects I have started some time ago, not starting new ones - if I can help it, and getting things organized.  My Dad used to say, "Have a place for everything and everything in its place."  His words keep ringing in my head.  Maybe i'm entering into the nesting stage of my pregnancy.  

Whatever the reason, I also found out that April is also Records and Information Management Month. Which fits my "nesting" so I created a little mini to keep important dates together in one place.  Birthdays, Anniversaries, etc.

Here is a quick video of the album in its entirity or watch on YouTube here.

I didn't takes pictures of each page but they are all constructed the same and created the pages of the mini using sheets from the 6x6 MME Nostalgia pad.  I folded a 6x6 page to create two pockets and a 2x2 foldout photo area on the back.  I used the lined journal paper on the front and back inside covers for more room to either write or cover with a photo.  

Then I assembled it together with hinges and decorated the front and I was done.  This was such a fun, quick, and easy mini organizer to create. And now all I have to do is fill it with important dates to remember. 

That's all for today everybody.  Thank you for spending time to see my project and I will see you all next time.

Bye

Scraps of Color Scripture Swap Project

Hi Everyone,

I decided to participate in a swap over at Scraps of Color.  The challenge was to create a card using a scripture.   "Just A few words to let them know that God is always present."   After searching for an image and an image that I could pair together I chose Ephesians 3:20 and an image and sentiment from Melonheadz.  Next to passion stamps, she is one of my go to images.  So here is the card I created for the swap.

 I used DecoArt Twinkles as embellishments since the paper alone is a bit active.

To color the image I used Copic markers.  See the list of markers below.

So there you have it.  Looking back at it I could have done some other things to it.  That is one thing that I don't like.  Looking back in hind site and seeing the things that I could have done with the card.  Oh well, I still like the way it turned out, I hope the ladies that receive it like it as well.

Alright you guys, tell me what you think.

Oh,  a couple of things....1) A big Hi and Hello to the new subscribers!! Thanks so much for joining me.  2) I'm thinking of having another giveaway when we reach 50 followers.  What are your thoughts?

Ok, thanks so much for stopping by today everyone and reading through all my babble.   So, until next time..

Kelli
