Life is Beautiful Mini Album DT Project for Reneabouquets

Hi crafty friends!
I am here to share with you my album titled: "Life is Beautiful".
  I have used lovely items from Reneabouquets, floral papers from Recollections, as well as Tonic Studios and Spellbinders dies to create this lovely keepsake.
On the cover, you can see the adorable Printed Beautiful Board Tiny Flower Girl Daphne. She is coupled with the Beautiful board Victorian Scroll Pattern Laser cut chipboard. I have used several pieces of the Victorian Scroll pattern throughout this book.
You can also appreciate the beautiful colors of the Pink and White roses and gardenia, carefully arranged with cabbage roses and grouped with Garden Part and Venice Rose Laces .
On the spine, I have carefully arranged the Garden Party lace atop others, and grouped it with the Pearl Accented Wedding Day Lace. It is both delicate and beautiful!

My front cover features a Sweetheart Pink Glitter Glass Premium butterfly. I love the tiny heart detail in the center! It tops off a gorgeous gold accent made with a Spellbinders die. The opposite page hold a card that slides out. This is topped with a piece of white Beautiful Butterfly lace.

Here you can also see the delicate white lace on the left. This is the delicate sheer Romance lace. The golden die cut is topped with sequins and pearls for a touch of soft color.


The very next page is my favorite, and it showcases the Beautiful Board Elizabeth in Paris topping a piece of Daisy Chain lace. This is also grouped with the same golden die cut from Spellbinders. Opposing her is the grand Eiffel tower, complete with sequins and delicate pearls for a very Victorian layout. 

This page showcases more pieces from the Victorian Scroll Pattern collection. You will see how I grouped these pieces on the outer and inner pages. The matching tags tucked in the pockets will hold pictures inside, and these are also decorated with pieces from the Garden Party lace, and Spellbinders dies. The small heart shaped gear is from the Beautiful Board Spring Beautiful Bits. I used a moonstone bead in the center for added shine.

These are the interior pages with more pockets made with Tonic studios dies, and matted layers for pictures.
Below is a double pocket page decorated with a gorgeous Beautiful Board Small Victorian Snowflake Clock face, topped with another gear, and it is followed be a sentiment that reads : Moment, also made of Beautiful Board. This is also adorned with a Sweetheart Pink Glitter Glass Butterfly. 


The pockets were created using a Crafters Companion die, and it houses two photo mats, with room for more. 


Below are the tuck spots made with Tonic Studios dies.  I thought the flowers were perfect for this book!

Here is another double pocket page, this time with more Victorian Scrolls and Beautiful Butterflies to adorn the photo mats. I fussy cut the floral paper to make the pockets on the page. 

Below you see more of the Venice lace, this time paired with the Watercolor Cherry Blossom Premium Glitter Glass Butterflies. They are absolutely beautiful among the floral garden in this book!


The sentiment reads: Life is a Beautiful Journey. I believe this to be true!
The last page houses another tuck away side pocket. This time I adorned the card on the edge with a piece of Garden Bouquet lace. This gives the book an adorable junk-journal look when it is closed. The lace is covered in beautiful pearls. 

Last but not least is the back cover. Here I used a stunning Beautiful Board Small Romance and Roses Heart Frame. It serves both as a picture frame and a shaker!
As you can see, I have filled it with shiny sequins and rose microbeads from Reneabouquets, and also tied golden tulle on the edge. The picture will slip in on the side of the page.
I hope you've enjoyed this project share, and that you take advantage of June's Coupon available at Renebouquets with your thirty dollar purchase. You will receive a set of gorgeous dragonflies!
As always, I thank you for your time, and hope that you can 
Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Girl's Little World Mini Album


Hi friends, 
Today I present to you my latest mini album. To make this mini book, I used Tonic Studios Dies and Lemoncraft papers aptly called: Girl's Little World. I absolutely love the watercolor images in this collection, and thought they were perfect for the type of album I wanted to make. 
On the cover, I began with a  white base, dotted all along the edge with different colored Nuvo drops. This immediately added to the whimsy of this book. I also used one of the darling images from the collection and highlighted it using Ranger Glossy Accents. To finish it, I also added a small banner topped with the baby's name, and different pastel-colored gems. The little butterflies also decorate the cover with matching wings and little gems. 

Here you see a closer view of the mulberry roses I used to decorate the corner of the cover. They are a lovely delicate pink. I also hand colored the butterflies using promarkers. 

For the spine of this book, I arranged small flowers and heat embossed them in different colors to match the papers. I also added small pieces of the lovely trims used inside the book, and topped it with an adorable little bow, wrapped in blue twine to match. 

Inside the front cover is yet another stunning image. I added small sparkly sequins throughout just to give it a little shine. 

The first page will allow mom to introduce her little baby girl with the title : Princess. I fussy cut all the images and added a small butterfly and tiny bird die cuts layered for dimension. Behind the oval frame is also a small pink trim I used throughout this book.

Here is the second page with more adorable images and places for pictures. 

Here you see the New Baby photo sleeve I created using Tonic Studios dies, and a small bow from Pink & Main. I also added the mother bunny image here, with an embossed flower and layers of trim, tiny hearts, flowers, and touches of shine. 

The opposing page houses a little booklet which fits more pictures. It is also topped with a little girl bunny, altered with glimmer, and grouped with the word Love atop a small heart. I used shimmery soft yarn to create the closure. 

On this page spread I added four matching oval frames. Then I decorated the pages with little bunnies from the paper collection, small butterflies and pink embossed cabbage roses , a pinwheel and the title: Fantastic Girl. 

Here you can also see the beautiful Daisy Chain Lace from Reneabouquets on the edges of the pages. A small pink heart is also topped with a daisy.  I cut these from the lace and used them throughout the book as well.  

The next page is so endearing, with the two little girls who appear hugging, such a tender gesture!
I used more small interactive frames, a heart shaped paper clip layered with vellum, beautiful board pieces topped with moonstones, and a darling little flower-filled cup. It reads: Pretty Day.

The opposing page has more frames, a small teddy, and duck. Both are made in the same fashion as the heart. All of the small flowers are fussy cut from the collection. The sentiments read: My Super Girl, and Special Moment. Small pictures may be placed inside.

This layout appears simple, but it houses a little door for more pictures. The left page features little pink shoes. these are grouped with more flowers, and a little blue butterfly. The opposite page is a simple frame that has been bordered with the delicate pink flower trim. 

Here is a closer look at the small shoes, and the tab that opens the page. You can also see the dry-embossing on the paper. I used an embossing folder for the added texture. 

This page also has a shaker!!!! It is also a door into another picture pocket. I adorned it with the lovely little girl, flowers that serve as a frame, two shiny dragonflies, and a small tab on the corner keeps it closed.

The opposing page also has a clear acetate pocket, topped with more butterfly beautiful board pieces colored to match and topped with small daisies and gems. 

Here is the open page, revealing the space for a picture and a dainty heart-shaped garland. I  colored each to match the papers.

The very last page houses small tags that can either be used for important milestones, or more pictures. I also   topped the pocket with embossed paper and a gorgeous piece of lace. Then I finished it all with more gems.

For the back cover I added a clear pocket cut with Tonic Studios dies, and also added larger tags with beautiful seam binding ties The pocket is layered with a flower swag and a small blue butterfly. On the corner is another beautiful board butterfly colored to match the page and finished with sequins. 
I hope you've enjoyed this project share, that you can Be inspired, and Be blessed!

"Secret Garden" DT project for Reneabouquets

Hi friends, 
I'm enjoying spring, and finally getting into my garden to enjoy the gorgeous colors and sounds! Today, I am bringing you a mini album covered in all of the beauty that we can encounter in a Secret Garden...
On the cover...
From the very top of the cover, you can see a nest full of adorable singing birds. They are nestled in a grouping of flowers that drape onto the page. Below them are a stunning Dragonfly, and floating butterflies that I suspended with floral wire. These quite literally float on the page!

Front and center is our Dahlia Flower girl. She inhabits this garden among the mulberry flowers, covered in sparkle and moonstones. Behind her are layers of paper altered with glimmer and delicate lace. Peeking from one corner is also a small beautiful board butterfly...

Dimensions: 8"x 6.5"x 3.5"
Papers: Summer Studio

 A closer look reveals the delicate beauty of this Dahlia Flower Girl and My Romantic Heart Butterfly. This is suspended with floral wire for some added whimsy. The lilac Mulberry Rose is also topped with a Butterfly Kisses Spun Lavender Single Side Printed Butterfly. I also fussy cut images from the Sweet Sentiment paper collection to include more floral arrangements in this book.


Take a peek at the adorable Printed Beautiful Board Large Bird Nest Laser Cut Chipboard. Can't you just hear them singing? You can also see how I've added dimension and layers with more fairies peeking in the background, glistening hearts that float on the page, and touches of light with pearls, gems, moonstones and Nuvo drops.


 On the spine of this book, I took the opportunity to display the Flower Crown Lace that drapes beautifully with its delicate peaks, and topped it with one of the pieces from the
Beautiful Board Large Dainty Butterfly Pattern. These have been altered with Nuvo Alcohol markers, cotton candy flat back pearls, and sequins.

Hand-painted papers are fun to incorporate into my projects! 

 The interior pages of this mini album continue the secret garden theme with each page displaying doors that open to reveal pictures. Each embellished with White Wide Floral Embroidered Lace, adorable magical hummingbirds, and pockets filled with vellum tags. The first page hosts a dancing ballerina, topped with a Romantic Heart Butterfly...

I used several Tonic Studios dies from my collection. All ephemera is fussy cut using my Tonic Scissors.

Gawdie Girl Pink Chunky German Glitter Glass, I was able to make a glimmery nest for my magical hummingbird on this page. The delicate pieces of lace are shown here in Ivory...

All pages are decorated with Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops.

The Cathedral Elements Laser Cut Chipboard  can also be used as-is. Here I only topped it with Cotton Candy pearls, and a gorgeous ballerina fairy from the paper collection...
For a delicate touch on the opposing page, I added more Cotton Candy Pearls.

I made each page slightly different layering Vellum in soft pastel hues.

This page has a delicate vellum-layered pocket. To keep the items soft, I layered the Wide Floral Embroidered lace with moonstones and more images from the collection...

Using my pastel Prima Watercolors, I managed to paint each page to match!

All of the pages are cohesive, and here you can get a glimpse at the last page, that also has a piece of the Beautiful Board, sprinkled with Pale Pink Glass Microbeads. Each piece can be altered to suit your fancy, which makes them easy to incorporate into any project! 

Frame topped with Cotton Candy Pearls.

On the last page, you can closely see that I have dry embossed all of the base pages in this book with a floral pattern for added texture. This final page has a hidden door to reveal three revolving doilies, and its door couples more butterflies and a magical hummingbird. All of these pieces will help tell a wonderful story. 

A 3D Embossing folder was used in making my pages more luxurious.
I hope that you enjoy this post, and that you view the added video for a more detailed walk-through.
As always, I hope that you can Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Soar High Mini Album

Hi friends,
 Today I am sharing this adorable Mini Album I crated for a special someone using Tonic Studios dies that recently released, and some papers from My Mind's Eye that were absolutely fabulous! It was difficult to part with this little book when it was all done, but I am very pleased that my friend will be able to enjoy it, ant that makes it all worth while.

On the cover you can immediately see that this is a Gatefold Mini Album style. The pages open to both the left and right sides. I altered a wooden Hot Air Balloon using papers from the collection, as well as pom pom and silver trim, gesso, chunky glass glitter and sequins.


 The floating teddy is also covered in chunky glass glitter. and a small pearl tops one of the kites that floats on the opposing cover page. I also used the blue pom pom trim to outline the sides and back of this book, and even added tiny gold hearts to the lattice edges of the cover.  On the sides of the book, I added another lattice in gold to make it shine! The closure is a small tag with a heart center, and a light blue grosgrain ribbon ties it closed. 



For the first page, I made a double frame topped with a bow, small white flowers, and a larger center flower. The outer diecut in coral is topped with pink and cream pearls. This is the darkest color used in this book, but I think it ties in very well with the rest. The little birds on the paper were so beautiful, I had to use this paper!


To the right, this page begins with two Polaroid-like frames that have removable photo mats. They are decorated with a small bow, golden heart-shaped tabs, photo corners, and a piece of white lace. A vellum doily corner that slightly covers a sentiment that reads "happy". You can also see that the hinges of this book are entirely decorated if you look closely to the edges of the picture. 

On the left is this page, with two square-shaped photo mats adorned with a stitched edge, a banner that reads "adore", and the cute little teddy bear holds two balloons with a string. The papers were so beautiful that not much was needed to make this little book beautiful.

Our next center page follows the Kite theme, and I incorporated three frames that can be untied from the page, and have matching photo mats on the back. These will dangle like a kite string when untied to reveal the pictures. The little kite on the side is topped with little golden bows, and I heat embossed the little bird image with pink embossing powder, then colored the layers in light green and yellow.

Here is another dual-frame page. This time they are ovals. and I added a festive banner that I made using small hearts carefully placed on string. There are also pink framed blue hearts in the background, and a little blue butterfly layered with tulle. Each paper was carefully selected to showcase the sentiments in the paper line also.


Here you see the same types of frames, with another delicate kite that has also been heat embossed with pink flowers. I placed clusters of gems on the corners for a little whimsy. 


The next page houses a flip-album that can fit up to six more pictures or journaling tied with a pink trim. I also used adorable swan-themed papers to inlay the flower motifs on the cover of this little booklet, and placed another teddy who holds a banner that reads: You Fly You Soar. The little decorative die-cut to the left can be used to jot a date or names. 


This page allows for a larger stand-alone picture in a circle doily, and it also has the  floating hearts decorating the background, grouped with a couple of doilies that serve as a hidden pocket for tiny matching tags tied with a string. I topped this off with a tiny jar that I altered with paper, golden thread, and its own little heart-shaped tag. I also used an acetate butterfly to finish this page.


In a similar style, this page also has a circle doily frame, only this time it has an adorable little envelope topped with a heart tag, a large butterfly that I hand-decorated with inks, and two little hearts as well as a tulle knot. Three little yellow vellum butterflies float around the frame followed by little gems. 


This page was so much fun to make! I designed a pocket by making a cluster of layered honeycomb shapes from the designs on the paper. They each are decorated with little hearts, a bee and bird, and behind it are matching tags I topped off with tiny matching bows. 



You may know I love adding shakers to my mini albums. Here I used a honey jar shape to make a window shaker. You can actually fit a picture behind this jar, and it will appear to be covered in the little floating sequins. The page is top-loading with a hidden clear window. The flowers are all handmade by yours truly to complete the page. 


Opposing the page is another dual-photo frame with golden photo corners,butterflies, pearl heart, and clover-shaped tags to hold the photo mats inside. I topped the frames with vintage trim to add softness. 


The last page houses yet another little flip-book. This time it ties to the side with a golden brad, and it is also a delicate shaker topped with a little bird and small gems. The flowers are also all handmade with love.


Here is the back of the book, displaying my favorite paper in this collection. I hope you have enjoyed this walk-through and can use it for your own inspiration. Feel free to watch the video below for more inside tips and suggestions on how you can preserve memories in love. 
Thank you for stopping by, and as always, 
Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Here's my latest project!

Tonic Studios Fairy Tale Tower

Hello crafty friends! I am sharing my projects made with the Tonic Studios Create & Make dies of April 2024. These are a smaller set of ...
