This is my favourite image of the photobook I created for Dad's childhood photos. I'm almost finished the 8" by 8" album - it will have taken almost a year, yet contains only 10 sheets, or 20 pages! Though I did have a second baby in October so maybe it's pretty good considering. I can't wait to post the finished album. Now that's gonna be a big celebration!

Marian's 70th birthday album
This is the first album, a 7" by 7" size, that I managed to finish in three weeks - following a similar style and colour theme throughout of Marian's favourite colours, pink and aqua - the party balloon colours as well. I used a Creative Memories coverset as that's her preferred brand, and found it's easier to insert the pages after they're finished, otherwise the inked stamps don't work too well! I also scanned the pages into the computer and made several photobook copies for other family members through a photo supplier.

Giving card sets as gifts
This is a collection of cards I made to fit some little square envelopes I needed to use up. I printed some greetings and images onto vellum and cropped them into squares... they can then be mixed and matched on to any of the cards. Everyone uses cards so it's a great idea for a gift. I'll definitely use this one again. The cards were so small they fit into a clean baby formula tin which I decorated. More on this in another post.
Tasmin's brag book
Tasmin was barely one when I made this little brag book in September, 2008. It's simply a blank card with some pages stapled inside with other photos of her. I needed to make five identical ones to send her aunties in Melbourne who aren't on the net and don't use email. It was fun to make and one of my first scrapbooking projects.
