Celebrations of the Heart Blog Hop

Posted by on
Hi! Welcome to the Celebrations of the Heart Blog Hop! You should have come from http://love4stamps.blogspot.com/ but if you didn't, be sure to go to Alina's blog & start at the beginning...

The theme of this hop is celebrating loved ones... I went way out of my normal & made a mini album for my parents. They're great parents, and very supportive... And I love & appreciate them a lot. I've always admired mini albums & wanted to do one
for them... Since I thought this hop was this weekend (oopsie) I didn't have time to put in pictures. This album was actually pretty easy & fun to make.I will put pictures in this later.... (especially since I can't guarantee they won't see this post)... :)
I got the instructions here:
Scor pal website.

On to the project:
Album closed











1st open












2nd open












3rd open












My husband & I play words with friends with my parents on the iphone i figured they'd get a kick out of "best parents ever" in scrabble letters!!!
4th open - love











5th open












6th open












7th open













And here's a video:




YouTube Video


I think its easier to see it unfold this way!
Supplies - all paper was from DCWV Citrus Stacks, the rub ons were Stamping Up, the letters were from a kit my parents had bought me, ribbon from Micheals, scallop punch from stamping up, corner chomper, and jolees accessories - scrabble letters and tulip. Butterfly sticker from container store. Best part about this project is I used some of the cool embellishments that I'd been hoarding! I'm sure some of you can relate,

I hope you enjoyed my project. Thank you for visiting my blog.

Of course I have blog candy!!

    This mini is awesome! I need to make a couple of these! Thanks for posting the link. I don't know what's up with Blogger today but it won't let me sign in to any of the blogs I follow, including yours. I'm a follower but can't use your app so if you happen to pull my name, you can draw again and give it to someone who can use it. TFS!

    I am having the same problem Anniebee is having, the blogs won't let me become a follower! When I go to the place on the blog, it just says "followers" and then there is a blank area where the followers pictures should be...this has been happening all day!

    Anyway, love your project, sorry I can't become a follower...maybe if I check back later?
