Ted- custom made baby paper bag album for Robyn

How cute are those stickers?? I love thse little blue nose friends- they are so sweet.
I brought these back from the Uk last year, and they were waiting for the right project.
What a fun album to make
With heaps of layers of bazzill cardstcok- including bazzill bling as well as patterned papers.
The bling has a shiny pearlscent look to it and really lifts to colour of the blue.
Hope it will be winging its way soon??
Looking forward to your comments Robyn :) xx

The handstamped and enchanted embossed words are raised up on foam so you can pop the photo partly beneath the wording.

Unisex baby Paper Bag White album for Robyn


The brief for this album was to create a unisex baby album- as the baby is yet to be born .We came up with the combination of white and a touch of gold. I’ve kept it textural and used a lovely bazzill cardstock call Bling which has a lovely glittery pearl shine to it. There are hints of gold throughout and I’ve used dragonflies as I thought butterflies were maybe a bit too girly. There are metal charm embellishments and I've made a couple of paper flowers too.I dont do traditional "baby" albums- I like to create more spiritual based items- so you wont see any teddy bears and baby carriages here!!
The words I’ve  hand stamped stamped and then heat embossed with glitter embossing powder- I’m not sure if you can see it on the photos?? I've also used 2 different embossing folders to make some lovely textures.
Hope you like?

All ribbons are tied so that you can easily slip photos underneath

Pippa Ann- first birthday custom made album for Robyn

I cant tell you how satisfying it is to follow a persons journey through life with my paper bag albums :)
It only seems like yesterday that i was making an album for a new born baby and now she is a year old! I am so honored to be part of this journey- thank you Robyn for allowing me to help preserve your memories.
I have  created a 6x6 inch white paper bag album for Pippa Ann's first birthday
Not too pink and not a butterfly in sight- modern funky and yet I think baby'y enough!
I photographed it in the morning so I'm sorry about the yellow hue- usually the afternoon light is better but i couldnt wait to pop it online :)
Looking forward to your comments xxx



I have the personalised cover and dimensional magic'd the rainbow so it has a gloss varnish to it with a tiny hint of glitter. The sun also has a little glitter on it! And the braid apple ribbon at the bottom is ribbed and tied in a knot


The firat page i have left blank for photo's- opposite is a scallop edged flap of extra room

The clouds have a gloss varnish to them- as do the rainbows on the opposite page. Note the scalloped journal area

extra flap fold out- note ribbed braid on the opposite page is attached so you can slip your photos underneath

BABY BABY BABY

oh no sounding a bit like Bieber!!
Geez thats scary!!
baby baby baby theme's this week
I have a girl and a boy album listed on ebay but thought a unisex one or two would fill that genre nicely.
I'm not a traditional bottle, nappy, pram and teddy bear scrapbooker, so when rediscovering these papers in my archive I got a little carried away.
So love this paper from DCWV
 along with Bazzill
Twiddleybitz chipboard letters and an assortment of ribbons  I bought from the craft fair I run every month- happy days
 The cream one I wanted something really classic and classy to suit any type of photo's .
I used mostly bazzill cardstock here
embossed with cuttlebug embossing folders- the dots and pattern. there is a touch of gold foiled paper misc brand. The charms- once again from my craft fair- thanks girls!

hope you like?
have a fairy happy weekend
cheers L xxxx
