I'm back at EyeConnect Crafts Blog as a Guest Designer this month, so I made a quick 4th of July Card, using Lace-Up: Celebration, Stars chipboard shapes.

I used some chipboard stars, washi tape, and retired stamps from CTMH.

2 Easy Mini Baby Girl Scrapbook Albums + Process Video

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!

A friend of mine and a family member had baby girls recently...so that "forced" me to craft!
They all came earlier than expected, so I made these 2 easy 6" x 6" Baby Girl Albums with a few supplies in my stash:

Each album took about 1 hour and 15 minute to make!!!

They have similar layouts, but still each one is unique...

Here's a YouTube video showing how I made the first album, and you can see all the pages from both albums:

Please, come back to see 2 Baby Girl Cards I made using left over stickers from the Albums in my next post, coming on Sunday!!!
