I’m glad I provided some laughs on my previous post, and I loved hearing some of your stories too. Ahhhh. The silly things we do.
I just have a few more little projects to put here that I made for the DSM booth at the Scrapbook Expo.
**A Happy Halloween pillow box for treats.
You’ve probably seen these before. . . for this one I used a pillow box template from http://www.ggdigitaldesigns.com/ and used papers from DSM. Printed at Costco (accidently on glossy paper but hey, it worked fine), cut out and folded into shape, then secured with double-sided sticky tape and wrapped a ribbon around it. Presto, a fun way to give Halloween treat to someone.
**A little boy birthday card.
This was easy. I just printed out one of the cute car graphics from the “Oh Boy” CD at DSM, adhered it to cardstock and added real red and clear buttons.
**One of my favorites: a book of colors for Annie.
This honestly came together so quickly and was really fun to make. I wanted to make Annie her very own customized book of colors. I already had most of the pictures–I wanted the objects to be her own things and have her in the pictures somehow, even if it was just her hand or foot. I just kept the design VERY simple so as not to distract from the pictures. I used various papers from various kits of DSM. I made them the size of “badge albums” so I could just slide them into those ID badge covers from Walmart, roughly 2.5 by 3.5 inches or something like that. I could easily fit 2 little layouts on a 4×6 photo from Costco. I’m happy with how it turned out, and so is Annie. Here are the digital files so you can see each of the pages. You can click to enlarge.
Oh, and here are just a few of my favorite layouts I’ve recently done.

Such great projects! The color book is my ABSOULUTE favorite. I am going to do that for Ryder when he is older. I can’t wait to copy some of these amazing projects.
I want to win so bad it hurts.
I would love to win Brooke! Pick me pick me! Oh and your projects are adorable! For those boxes do you do photo paper? I always wonder how photo paper will fold, I am thinking of doing those for thank you gifts for a baby shower I am throwing this weekend that is why I am wondering.
You are talented for sure! So dang cute, love all your pages and the color book is way cute. I love the idea of using pictures of Annie for it, very cute.
So totally interested and as usual, inspired by you to go out and create some fun things myself!
I just came across your blog off of your facebook account, holy cow you’re talented. I definitely want to be just like you when I grow up. I really would love it if you would teach me how to do some of that digiscrapbooking you’re so good at. I have lots of pictures but haven’t done anything with them. If you get bored feel free to take a look around our blog. Not nearly as beautiful as yours but sometimes mildly entertaining.
I just love all your amazing creativity! Can that be won too?? LOL I’ll be copying your color book for Paige-hope you don’t mind!! I’m so thrilled for your Bella association! Congrats!
I LOVE the color book. I want one for Brielle. I died laughing at the brown picture. And of course I loved the first friends page.
