Here is another page from the scrapbook I made Alayna.

I gave her the album yesterday and she had so much fun looking at all of the pictures of her and her friends.  This page I made for her sitting in the swing. 

 

Project details:

Background shape:  Storybook Cricut cartridge cut at 7.75 inches

Butterfly:  Spellbinders dies

Martha Stewart border punch



Fabulous Fall

Today's scrapbook layout is for Alayna's album. 

She will be going to kindergarten in the fall.

This layout is for the day we raked up all the leaves in the play area

and put them at the bottom of the slide. 

She had a great time landing in that pile of leaves over and over again.

More of Nora's Scrapbook

These are the next pages in Nora's scrapbook.  These two pages are my favorites in her album because not only are they pretty but the stories that go along with them are dear to my heart.

You and Me Scrapbook Layout

 

This is one of the pages I made for Nora's scrapbook. 

 It will have a picture of me and her together

The album is an 8x8. 

 I think that is the perfect size for a child to sit

 to hold and look at in order to  remember all of her friends at daycare.

8x8 pages are also just the perfect size for 4x6 photos.

Album cover

I always try to make a scrapbook for each of my daycare kids to take with them when they go to kindergarten.  This year I have one child going to kindergarten and one moving away.  Goodbyes are always difficult because these children become part of our family. This is the front of the album I made for Nora who will be moving away.  I have taken care of her since she was a baby and she is very dear to all of us.
I ran the corner branch through my xyron so it would stick to the album.  The letters were cut out of vinyl.

Rootin' Tootin' Birthday

Howdy!  It's time for another challenge at Creative Craft Challenges. 

The theme this time is "Just Checking" 

You can interpret that however you want.  I used some checked paper for my card.

I used the sketch from Sunday Sketch and stamp and used the Old West Cricut cartridge for all the embellishments.

 

Here's the inside of the card:
