Artbooking Made Easy: Everyday layouts!

Another fun 5K!

Last Sunday our 5K was at the Wilson vineyards in Temecula, California. What a beautiful area!

Kraft 3-Ring Album!

Turn this My Creations Kraft 3-Ring Album (Z1871  $5.95)  into a beautiful gift using your Artbooking 8 x 8 album cuts!

Simply choose your CTMH My Reflections paper packet, have a few 4 X 6 Flip Flaps ready to go...cut out all the 8 x 8 and half pages from the two mini 8 x 8 albums in your Artbooking  cartridge on pages (I used) 38 & 39, 44 & 45. WaLa! One great mini album, one great gift!  *In this one I added extra card stocks from my CTMH cs and a few BT pieces. Not a lot of "work" was required.
