A few months ago I saw this tutorial for a Mini Album. Since then I have been collecting the sleeves whenever I see different ones, with this idea in mind. At a local coffee shop I found completely plain sleeves.  I basically followed the directions in the video, but altered slightly for my coffee sleeve and used Traci & Lauren Grier’s new kit, CYa L8r Bo that came out this weekend.

Here are my supplies (although I ended up printing out some extra pages and a few sheets of paper for the cover & inside.)

I decided to cover the front and inside of my coffee sleeve. I simply used the sleeve as a template to cut the printed paper to the correct shape (like in the video), then used some 3M Photo Glue to attach them.

I used some rough measurements to create my inside digital pages in photoshop, then used the sleeve as a template again to cut them out. I glued the white “backs” of the pages together and trimmed the pages to fit inside the sleeve so nothing extended outside the coffee sleeve. I added some ribbons and embellishments, then put 2 holes in the pages with my crop-a-dile and threaded a longer ribbon thru tho tie them together.

Then I threaded the ribbon thru the enlarged holes I made in the coffee sleeve.

I tied my ribbon and then added a few extra ribbons and embellished the cover.

Here is another shot of the inside pages

I completed the whole project within a few hours. These would make really fun simple gifts to give friends and family. If you have any more questions on how to make these please let me know.

Till next time, happy scrapping!

It is Amber filling in for Alane this week. Normally she posts a template, but with her boys starting school things have been a little hectic for you. Instead I found this short cute quiz to determine what font you are. Here are my results:

You Are Impact

You are very unique and quite striking. You are forceful and aggressive. You never go unnoticed, and people recognize your power instantly.While you make your presence known, your message is a bit fuzzy. You are not the easiest person to understand, and you’re not one for details.

What Font Are You?

Take this quiz and let us know what font you are!

Hey ladies … It is Amber dropping in with a printable door hanger I put together. After printing it out you can attach it to some chipboard to make it sturdy or just print on heavier paper. My son begged me to put it on his door, and it really looks very cute.

Happy Wednesday!  Sara (scarletsierra aka Sierra) here with another looksie into the galleries to showcase some of the fabulous pages created with Traci’s designs.  I love to look through the galleries and see the amazing creativity at work!

I love the simplicity and fabulous use of negative space in Your Very First Halloween by Katrina (twentytinytoes).  She used Traci’s In The Air Tonight to create this adorable beauty:

Here’s another layout featuring Traci’s In The Air Tonight.  Frustration by Sammi.  I love her use of patterned paper and the clean design:

I loved the playful bright feel of The Backyardigans by beckyritchie04.  She used Traci’s Sunshine Playtime for this cute page:

Here’s a fun one, Simply Sliding from Rose.  She used Easily Amused to capture a fun moment:

Hope you had fun looking at some of the latest gallery creations with Traci’s goodies.  I’d love to see yours too so if you have a favorite Traci page feel free to share!  In the mean time, Happy Scrapping!

With this kit, I’ve created a fusion of Asian elegance and beauty with my own bright, colorful and fun style! Gorgeous papers, pearl strands, fortune cookies, paper lanterns and bamboo all combine beautifully for a very versatile kit with an elegant Asian flair! Not just for your orient-themed layouts, this kit can be used for parties, girly girl layouts and so much more!!
