LESSology challenge 7 ~ You've Got Mail

I am sharing today, my DT project for LESSology

LESSology challenge # 7 ~ You've Got Mail

I don't know about you, but I got most of my scrapping supplies online, that ends up with lots of this...

now this is how I turn my shipping box into gift box....

I used Gesso to cover up all the "unwanted" text on the box...

next, water colors.....

remember that old book I altered that got me all these book pages? now they are green grass...

green grass, blue sky, white clouds.... now let your imagination take flight....

now this box just need a gift to get in there, and ready to be shipped again....

you might want to hop over to LESSology now to see what the talented team created for you, here's a sneak of their project...

and guess what, Pixie Dust Paperie is sponsoring LESSology challenge # 7

D is for Dolce

Over at Scrapbookers Anonymous, the challenge for letter D

The biggest D in my life gotta be my Dolce right?

I finished this layout 2 days ago but just keep forgetting to take picture, and then I realized this evening that if I don't post it, I am going to miss the deadline, so I had to take these with very limited lighting in my craft room, with the camera flash, apologize for the bad photos...

I am linking this layout to 

Scrapbookers Anonymous A to Z challenge

I'll be back tomorrow for a project for City Crafter Challenge Blog

Manila tag Mini Album for baby boy

I am sharing a Manila tag mini album for boy today, if you are here often, you probably have seen the Manila tag mini album for girl few months ago when I made that using Pixie Dust Paperie August Kit "Picnic Basket"

This one is for a baby boy......





I made this as a gift, the photos used were just magazine page lightly tag onto the cardstock, the recipient can replace it with their baby boy's photos.








5 manila tags, 10 pages in total....

journal page - So blessed because......

again, this is a baby boy album, the girl picture seen here is just cut out from magazine.... recipient of this album will replaced it with their baby boy's picture.

final page stitched with ribbons

back of the mini album

now tie a bow with that ribbon.....

there you got a tag album, small enough to throw in your purse so you could take it with you and show off your bundle of joy anytime, anywhere....

Cupcake Card with Polka Dots

Hi all, hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with family.

Here in our family, it is simple and nice, Clare spent Thanksgiving with her classmate in LA as she needs to work on Black Friday, only 3 of us at home, we decided not to fuss over cooking and went to Cheesecake factory instead, we just got home, maybe we are going to play cards and then have the pumpkin pie I bake this morning.

Alright, let me finish up this post and then I can get going, they are waiting for me.... : )

Here's a card I am sharing.....

and I am linking this card to the challenge at

The Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge

this week's theme is Polka Dots

Have a fun-filled weekend my friend.....
