I'm back from a very relaxing and productive scrapping weekend with girlfriends at our favorite B&B in northern Wisconsin. Six of us braved the rain/sleet/snow and papercrafted like crazy while the weather raged outside. We all completed projects and went home happy, relaxed and pretty proud of ourselves.
I am happy to report that I completed 3 projects between Thursday afternoon and Saturday night.
- Christmas 2018 pages. Finished and in the album. I'll share those with you in the next several weeks.
- Small Vintage Greeting Card Gift Albums (two). A smaller version of the book I describe below. I'll share those with you in the next several weeks.
- Vintage Greeting Card Album, Volume II. This album is a companion to Volume I book I made (at this same retreat in January, 2017). See that post here. Just as Volume I was dedicated to Christmas cards, Volume II is dedicated to birthday cards received. Page size is , just big enough for one card on each page. I used a set of preprinted base pages, some with pre-printed sentiments. I embellished the pre-printed pages a small amount here and there to help them fit in to the rest of the book. Here are some of my favorite pages:
This is the inside back cover.
Again, thank you Edna for your vision so many years ago. I still have a large stack of get well cards and from other holidays and events. I am planning two more albums with cards before the collection will be complete.
Until next time....
