Mini Album Makers Challenge Blog going live today!

Hello friends and welcome, thanks for joining me here today possibly even for the second time....
Today sees the launch of a brand new challenge, the Mini Album Makers Challenge hosted by the wonderful Autumn from Sew Paper Paint. And guess what, I have been invited to be part of the design team. I am absolutely delighted, because, as regulars here will know, - there is nothing I like doing more than making little books!
Here is my project for the first challenge:
This new challenge blog is going to be a tutorial blog, DT members will be sharing many different ways and styles of creating mini albums. The tutorial with full instructions on how to construct and decorate a little album like this one can be found HERE. And guess what, there will be sponsor prizes to be won, and this month our amazing sponsor is no other than the wonderful Seth Apter!!!

Please hop over to the challenge blog to get the full low down on this exciting launch (there will be prizes to be won)! And to see what the other members of the team have made and of course we all hope you will join in and share your own album with us!
Thank you for your visit and happy September!!!

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
