Yay at last i have finished creating my mini album which i got from my lovely friend Roseanne at

A Moms IMPRESSION

At first i was stuck for an idea to get me going but once i started creating it it flew along.

I wasnt quite happy with the front page..just felt it lacked something but i was pretty pleased with it overall. and WOW did i have a blast and i think im getting addicted to creating these mini albums.

I have created a slide show of the finished album for now and hope to get a video done soon

This is the Front page of my mini xmas album. I am still working on this one.I have almost got half way through it so far..I painted some chipboard letters with red a pink mix, acrylic paint and hand cut out a top note from a template i found (as i dont have a die cutting machine lol) so its not quite the perfect shape. This was also painted with the same pink/red acrylic paint and then misted with copper cosmic shimmer.

I then added a chipboard tree with pop dots to add dimension and some Imaginice flowers and bling. The flowers were misted again with a copper cosmic shimmer spray (the only one i have!!lol) ( crafting on a really tight budget here ladies lol!)

This tag was created out of cardboard painted with green acrylic paint..misted with my copper shimmer and papermania added and a imaginice flower and brad..all this crafting on a low budget..is driving me nuts lol.

wish we had a BIG LOTS or a MICHAELS or a TARGET..lol
