And Now For Something Different


...at least for me, that is.

I used to create mini albums in my Creative Memories 6x6's with my Christmas photo cards.  2009 was my last year to create a 6x6 album; but, I have been saving the photo cards since.

This year I purchased a different 8&1/2 x 11 type with sleeves. I think that it is We R Memory Keepers.  It's so much better that most of the cards can fit in one piece on a bigger page now.

I used a sketch by Sketches in Thyme and The Scraproom's Doubleshot January Kit, (which uses Carta Bella Warm & Cozy).

The sketch is so cute and adds just a little something without overwhelming the card.  The papers are a fabulous mix of warmth and festive.

Thanks for looking!  Have a great day!!

  2. Thank you Anne!! Your comments left me wondering if I had originally worded my post poorly. Anyhow, I edited my post. My new album is not Creative Memories. I just threw out my last CM tape runner. I loved their old tape runners that you had to cut the used tape all. We used to offer up prizes to the cropper who ran the longest tail on their tape runners. I still have a lot of Creative Memories, as well. Thanks again for the compliments!
