Lion Baby Shower Guest Book Album


I really like this stripped cover paper from 3 bugs in a rug. I've added a cute lion embellishment and a matching name card for a special baby boy.

I've binded it in a dark orange thread since the inside photo pages are green.

The greatest thing about these new striped cover designs is that I can coordinate them with almost any of the create a critter embellishments.

Lady Bug Love

Happy Valentine's Day!

Today's featured book is a new lady bug design I've created for birthday's and baby showers. I thought it fitting to share today with all the black, red, and white colors that seem to coordinate with Valentine's day.


A sweet little name card goes in the center of the book cover.

 I tied it with red thread.

And here is the cute little saying on the first page. (author unknown)



I slipped in some red photo pages in the middle and placed gift record pages in the back. I just love lady bugs, that were my own little Bug got her name. :)

A Mournful Note


This past week I created this custom order for a special remembrance. I used some music note paper and shoe string binding to bring it all together. The inside pages are blank white sheets with a few music notes stamped in the corners and black photo pages.

Getting Back to Books

I'm sorry for the silence here this past week as I've been battling the flu, ran off to a book conference, and returned with a horrible cold that blocked my sinuses and made it difficult to breathe let alone think most days.

But not even that could stop me from making some really awesome books this week for all of you. I've had a lot of custom orders requests over at the shop, please keep them coming. I love custom orders!!

I've also been busy making re-visions to a novel and finishing up the first draft of another, which you can find out about more over on my author site.

I've been even playing with the idea of illustrating my own children's book using my paper craft skills. I've been creating some cute pictures with paper and die cuts lately, and one night at 3 am the story flowed through my mind. I guess that is what happens at 3 am when you can't sleep becuase your sinuses are so stuffed up you can't breath. :)

Anyway, these week we're getting back to book. That's what I love and what I do best. I'm still a Close To My Heart Consultant and you can find the link on the sidebar of my blog, it will no longer be at the bottom of my posts. I'm also happy to announce that I've signed on with 3 Bugs In A Rug and will carry their cute papers in my studio for book cover options as well. I've been using a lot of their striped papers lately for baby shower and birthday book designs and am happy to say that I can make a book design more than once now that I can buy wholesale from them. :)

This week I have a lot of great new designed books to share with you. Most of them are custom orders from the shop, and I'm currently working out some matching invitation designs to add in with the thank you cards I've been making too.

If you missed my open house on February 3rd, and didn't have  a chance to visit my new studio, then stayed tuned and I'll be posting photos next week. In the mean time, I'd love to hear what you all have been up to while I was gone. Did it snow? We sure got some!

Here Comes The Bride Wedding Guest Book




I made this book several months ago, intended for this very day. It's pages are blank, but the ends are punched with an EK SUCCESS punch to give it a elegant touch.

I added purple around the name card to bring out the eggplant color of the cover.

Can you hear the wedding bells? Somewhere there is a happy groom kissing his bride!
