Teasers

I started this post a week ago (at least) and it got filed in drafts while I took photos (to tease you with) and so uh, here we go....

My "FATHER" album (see below) got me uberinspired and I have since started making two more...and have plans more another 3 since I have the chipboard for another three!

Can't have father, without mother...
I called my dad asking him if he knew where childhood photos of my mum could be found...he said, "good luck!" There is a tote at their house I will be taking with me next time I visit (next month - woo hooo!) so photos for this creation I am working on will have to wait, but the base, she's a done! I opted to use the Heidi Grace A Little Bird's Tale line and am theme'n my mum's album "A Little Bird's Tale" (I like the play on words). My hope is that I can get a collection of photos from my mum's childhood into the album...and hopefully a recent pic too!

Next, I decided that our sweet chicken kitty (I call her this because she is a chicken, with fur...a scaredy cat) did not have enough representation in the family scrap pile, so using the Cloud 9 kitty collection (I picked up a page pack at Target) I started on the base for her book.

I have HG Baby line...it's just asking to be scrapped!!! But, three kids, 1 set of paper...can I do it? yes I can! :D Since I am on such a board book/mini book kick, and discovered some awesome old family photos, I thought it would be fun to create a family baby book with pics of all the relatives (ok, some...all would be a novel!). I am going to mix the album up alternating chipboard bases from the HG chipboard stickers and clear plastic. This will add a fun new dimension...and creating clear is sooo much fun!

Sunday...already!

I cannot believe it is Sunday already!! I am back to school tomorrow...this term I will be going 3 nights a week since I *have* to get my math classes taken care of and those are definite ON CAMPUS classes! ;)

Tomorrow, I will be setting up a Scottish Cultural Display at the World Beat Gallery in the Reed Opera House (downtown Salem)...this display is one of my brainchildren! It officially opens on April 2nd and runs until July 15! Tomorrow is going to be a busy day...

Its almost the end of March...that means almost the end of National Craft month...and no more Fiskateer projects on the main Fiskars Craft Site :/ Oh, did you see mine??? It was March 29th! Here's a peek for ya...

The background is fabric...patterned paper, flowers and ribbon are Heidi Grace. My grandfather (Poppa) is the young man in the dress in the center ;)

Ok, I just got an email from my friend Deborah (who runs the Groovy Doodle challenges) and she is reminding me I need to get doodling...so I must go doodle... :D
