Mini-Books, Mini-Books and More Mini-Books

I obviously have been working on some mini-books...or mini-albums, whatever you call them, I have been working on them for the past few days. I was supposed to be in Arkansas to finally get to meet my beautiful great niece, Mackenzie, but had to cancel the trip because poor Chris was very sick. He didn't start actually feeling betting until Saturday. He would not have really enjoyed the 6 hour drive to my parents house. So the trip has been rescheduled for August 10th. Keep your fingers crossed that we will actually get to go. Matt will be home on August 7th, so he will get to go with us. Yeah!!!

Okay, since the trip got cancelled, I cleaned up my project room, refilled my RAK box and made some key envelope mini-kits, made about 30 ribbon flowers, and worked on mini-albums. Oh, and I did laundry, made a WalMart run, and hit the post office! Okay, back to the mini-albums. Well, I actually got 3 completed and I have 3 more in the planning stages...just waiting on my order from The Shack...should be here tomorrow. I can only show two of the mini-albums, because one is for a challenge at 2Jills that I haven't posted yet. So check back in again and it will be posted.

This mini-album was for a DT assignment at My Scrapbook Nook. I just love the Arrow Chipboard album from Maya Road!






This is an altered 7Gypsies medium portfolio. I used Halfway Cafe papers from Cosmo Cricket and Chipboard from Maya Road. I used pictures from the Car Show on June 2nd. If you look real close you will see that I actually painted something! Yep, I painted! I am sooo impatient that the idea of painting just doesn't really appeal to me. However, I decided to grab some Ranger Paint Dabbers and paint away! I think my hubby was as shocked as I was that I actually painted the entire portfolio!
