Love Album

I always make sweet little albums for Scott for special occasions.  Here is the album I made for him for Valentine's Day this year.  Made from a cardboard album bought at a scrapbook store, this album is a quick and easy project.  I used coordinating papers and embellishments to make this album easy to mix and match patterned papers and accessories.

When I was done, I made several Valentines cards from the same coordinating papers to use up scraps.



Tip: When working on a project, create a few cards from the left over scraps and embellishments.  It takes e half the time since everything is out and coordinates already.

Lunch Bag Album

This is a quick and easy project for your favorite Valentine, teacher, friend or even Grandparents.  The plastic baggies can also be used to hold special items such as tickets, "First Hair Cut" clippings, coins, keepsake jewelry and much more!

I am not writing out step-by-step instructions because it is easy and you will be able to see how it goes together in the photos.

You will need...
1.  Paper lunch bags (brown or white)
2.  Clear plastic baggies ( I found them at craft stores)
         They hold 4x6 photos easily.
3.  Ribbon
4.  Paper and photos to decorate.
5.  Hole Punch

Tip: Create your pages first before putting the book together.

Once your pages are complete, punch holes in all the baggies so they line up.  Use two lunch bags as the front and back.  Decorate as desired and then punch holes to line up with plastic baggies.  Tie together with ribbon and decorate to your hearts content!
