Baby Book Ideas (Crate Paper)

Hi Everyone I first showed this book last year, but instead of sending it to my sister to complete – I filled it in for her – knowing only too well that time can be pretty short when you have a new baby in the house! Sorry I can’t show you any detailed pictures of the inside – but I hope you understand it’s not my baby to share! I used a Maya Road 5×7 tabbed book as a base and the Crate Paper Little Sprout and Lillian Collections to decorate. I have used Cosmo Cricket’s Tiny Type Number Stickers for the tabs – and I have to say they are the first transparent stickers I have used which virtually disappear on the paper – FABULOUS! These collections are a couple of years old and I picked them us super cheap – but the patterns are timeless and absolutely gorgeous. Please email me with any questions or comments. Lowri 🙂 I am linking this project up to these websites here.

Mini Album (Maya Rd & Basic Grey)

Hi Everyone Another Christmas gift I made here – this time using a Maya Road chipboard album and Basic Grey’s Origins Collection. I left the album blank and gave the recipient heaps of embellishments from the same collection allowing them to use it for whatever purpose they liked. I had to re-make the front cover as once I adhered the paper to the pages, the cover would not close at all! I love the Maya Road products – but I have only just started using them – so maybe a bit of practice on my part would make it easier.. This project came together really quickly and I loved the fact that all the hard work was done – and the gift recipient could just add pictures or notes whenever they pleased. This Basic Grey collection is gorgeous and like all of their collections there is a huge variety of papers and embellishments available. More soon – hope you are keeping safe if you are in Australia. Lowri 🙂

Fun Binder album (using Maya Rd & Cosmo Cricket)

Hi Everyone – HAPPY NEW YEAR! Another Christmas present to share today – and this one couldn’t be easier. I was desperate to make a Christmas present for my husband, and this came down to a Christmas Eve last minute rush job! I had some assorted odds and ends of a few early Cosmo Cricket lines I picked up from Trade Me (NZ equivalent of ebay!) I have used Jack’s World, Cogsmo, Joy Ride and possible a couple of other bits too! I also had a Maya Road 5×7 Chipboard album which I thought would make for an easy project. It did make for an easy project and I am just starting to use some of their products. I LOVE the chipboard books – but each time I have had to make a new cover as there are no allowances for adding additional bulk when you cover the pages with paper.. maybe it’s just me! I cut the papers to size, glued them on and then sanded the edges lightly for a neat finish I have used a few of the die-cuts, chipboard pieces and stickers from the odds and ends I had – some of these lines are discontinued […]
