new christmas album kit "yuletide joy"

brrr, my gosh we have 38 degrees and wet out here, hello winter! we actually had snow mixed with rain last night, i thought everyone said it was going to be a warm winter around here? really, i love the cold and snow, as long as we have wood to burn and cocoa to drink-oops forgot cocoa at costco and i really do need to get our scarves and mittens out for the winter! well that's tom0rrows work- today, okay, tonight,  i have just  listed this new chipboard christmas album kit in my etsy shop , i love these papers by my mind's eye, i also had some of the graphic 45's christmas papers delivered today, oooh they are sweet! anyway- on with this album kit:

                            

all the goodies you will need to create this...

                               

5.5" X 8.5" chipboard album with each page a unique shape. the cover has 2 pockets to slip in pictures, journaling, or memorabilia- like a letter to santa? his answer? a christmas wish list? the santa tag from graphic 45 creates a pocket on top of the bottom pocket. a  tag of the "night before christmas"  hangs from a spiral clip with cream(although it looks stark white in this photo, geesh!) ribbon and a bit of fluffy white fiber.

                  

                                                              pages 1 & 2

2 pockets on each page with velvet ribbon tied to the top pockets with red buttons and vintage white buttons-you can slip little pictures under the velvet ribbon to show them off. 2 large tags are slipped into 2 of  the pockets, and a manila shipping tag for  journaling, hangs from the top binder clip with vintage seam binding.  you will have to provide the tiny stamps for stamping, alas, i couldn't find good ones for the kits- why does that always happen?

                                                          

this is the reverse side of the journaling tag, decorated with music paper and a vintage christmas tree.

                 

                                                                  pages 3 & 4

two more pockets on each of these pages sewn to the pages with embroidery floss, with 2 large tags tucked in and another journaling tag attached to the binding clip. there are 2 little santa cut outs on the front of the pockets.

                                                            

reverse of journaling tag on pages 4 and 5, with a little santa car and happy christmas cutout, on a polka dot background.

                 

                                                                  pages 5 & 6

2 pockets on each of these pages attached with silky seam bimding, with large tags slipped into the pocket and one last hanging journaling tag . you will create this layered paper snowflake for page 6 and attached to the pocket with a button.

                                                            

back side of the journaling tag on hanging between pages 5 and 6, a cute vintage postcard image layered on top of a snowflake background.

                          

5 large tags with vintage christmas postcard images on the front and bazzille card-stock on the reverse.

                           

the opened "yuletide joy" album.

with these double-sided papers and differently shaped pages, you can construct any album design you would like. i include full step by step instructions  and colored page pictures for placement referral, with each kit.

thanks for looking,back to work for me! enjoy your night! -rebecca

new little easter album kits

hello, hello everyone, just a quick post today, to let you know that i've listed a couple of little easter kits and die cuts in my etsy shop.

"blue bunny"  kit

"hi valentine" a new album and pocket pages kits

well, the snow has left us and it is warmer in the 30's instead of the 20's and teens, geesh! it feels balmy, lol!

so, here, also here are the child's valentine album and kits, i mentioned in one of my earlier posts, with sweet vintage valentine card images as the pockets and a little matchbook album too...

             

all the goodies in the add on kit with 4 photo corners created out of  my mind's eye "just dreamy2" double-sided card-stock, 9 vintage valentine card images, lots of ribbon, and 7 hand cut and punched  scalloped photo tags.

 

this entire pocket pages album kit is created with double-sided  card-stock  from the ""just dreamy" collection by my mind's eye and will arrive with everything you need to create an 8 page album with 4 pocketed pages, 4 double-sided tags with round pulls, plus a binding clip, twill ribbon and full instructions and photos, to create this...

                          

completed pocket pages album with tags. if you  combine these two kits an example of what you can create is this...

                   

"hi valentine" album cover with pink seam binding ribbon, a hanging "love  token", a double-sided tag and a little  matchbook album tucked into a pocket created with a  vintage valentine image from my collection.

 

pages 1 and 2 with 2 side tags

 

pages 3 and 4 with 2 tags. just a note... i tea dyed the tag pulls, that is, i dipped them in black tea, crimped them with my acquired dentist locking tweezers, and dried them with my heat gun. it makes the seam binding curly, i love the look. 

 

pages 5 and 6 with  2 tags.

                   

the pocket tags with the little photo corners attached.

now, remember, with this album kit, the papers are all double-sided so you could actually use the opposite sides and create a totally different album!

this proto type is for sale here in my etsy shop, if you would like it all ready to hold photos. thanks for looking, i shall return!

good night for now, -rebecca                 

"sealed with a kiss" envelope album kit

back again, i don't  want anyone to faint, with me blogging this much, lol! but here is the "sealed with a kiss" envelope album kit for you to look at, it's listed here with all the info

             

all the goodies you will need to create the envelope

album in my previous post here.

there are 2 different die cut accessoryy tag sets that i am putting into these kits at random (1 set of 8, per kit)

   

they are just slightly different in colors and of course the words, but both are just as cute. i used the first set in the album  prototype that i put together below. if you prefer one over the other, let me know and i will try and give you the one you specify- either the polka-dot or striped heart set. and actually, as i look at these sets, i have added a word strip in each, one with 2 hearts to the left of it and the other with flowers to the left, geesh, these words are from a sticker pack and will be different in each kit.

am getting back to work on another pocket pages album kit for valentine's day, this theme, for the little ones. i shall return soon, thanks for dropping in! good night all! -rebecca
