Okay, so I am obsessed....





So I am obsessed with making these mini scrapbooks. I had thought about doing a craft fair this weekend, but decided instead to keep the mini's and give them as Christmas gifts. I will also continue to try and sell some in my Etsy shop. You can check out my shop here. I plan on trying to sell this Christmas mini scrapbook. I have sold 3 items in my shop. They take so long to make, my time is free!! It is a good thing the government pays an excellent pension, cause this endeavor of mind won't generate much cash. I hope to get at least enough to keep me buying more craft supplies. :):)

3 More mini's




My day off today, and this is what I worked on. Two Christmas Scrapbooks, and a small vintage scrapbook. I like the one on the top as it fits 4x6 pictures, without having to crop them. I went to Michael's today with my husband. Got lots of new paper, can't wait to use it. :):) I even had my husband go through the line to get 40% off a pad of paper. He is always looking for a deal, and figures I was going to get the paper anyways.

A trip to the Wash House.







My washer broke a couple of weeks ago. The repair man ordered the wrong part, so we were without a washer for awhile. He came last Friday to fix it. He left, and I didn't even get one load of laundry done, before the washer broke again! errrrr aggravated to say the least. Melissa and Dustin had come for the weekend, and I really needed clean clothes. So Melissa and I took a trip to the laundromat. I haven't been to the laundromat in years......don't care if I ever go back. As you can see Melissa worked really hard.

Here are some photos of the inside of the album I finished yesterday. I am working on more mini scrapbooks, and debating whether I should get a table at the craft fair in two weeks. Not sure if I will have enough books made by then.

My Christmas mini scrapbook



Well here is my Christmas mini scrapbook, just finished it today. I love how it turned out, that vintage/ distressed look. My daughter did a great job teaching me how to make it. (You can check out her blog here)I am excited how it turned out, and I can't wait to make more. They will make great gifts..........now to decide what pictures to put in it. I also need to put pictures in my mini album I got for my Birthday. I was thinking maybe pictures of my Mom would look great.
