I'm addicted to these new "My Creations 3-Ring Binder" albums.

They are cheap ($5.95) and this whole album took me a max of 2.5 hours.

What a sense of accomplishment when you can sit down and complete

a whole album in an evening.

Also, this little album is the perfect gift for a baby shower, etc.

I want to mention that the design for this album was not my original creation (Thanks to Nona D. for sharing these instructions with me) but I will be working on making several others in the near future using different papers.

Here's the recipe:

Animal Cookies Level 2 Paper Pack

Animal Cookies My Stickease

Summer Craft Buttons

White Hemp

Corner Rounder

1/4" Hole Punch

Colors: Desert Sand, Tulip, Dutch Blue, Sunflower, White Daisy

Unforgettable Acrylic Album with Photos

I finally got around to adding some photos to my Acrylic Album. This is a Mother's Day gift, I made one for my Mom and one for my Mother-in-law. Hope they like it! For those of you that also made one of these Albums at my workshop in April I would love to see pictures of your albums also. There might be something in it for anyone who has completed their "homework!"
