For my little guy...

I used the crown album from My Acrylic Album to showcase pictures of my son as a newborn. I left a peekaboo window on this and I love how it came out!

For a friend...Merry Christmas!

I made this for my Secret Santa recipient...I hope she loves it! I had fun making this!

New albums are coming!!!!!

I'm excited to tell you that My Acrylic Album has not one,not two,but TWELVE new albums being released on December first!! You will want to see these beauties! I'm very thankful to get the opportunity to work with some of the new designs and want to share them with you!

First up,this is the new stocking album. This was a delight to work with! The front cover has an oval cut out of it,and yes,you do receive the oval piece with the album. I used mine on the back of the cover,to add to the layering of the first page. Making Memories generously donated product from their Fa La La line for this album,so I packed as much MM goodness as I could into it!







The next album I have to share is called "O Christmas Tree",I think! This album,can I tell you,is HUGE! A vertical 4x6 photo can easily fit on each page. I used wallet sized photos,so you can clearly see there is a lot of room for pictures,journaling,and embellishments. I have been listening to Christmas music lately,and when I heard "Silver and Gold" for the first time this season,it inspired me to use that color scheme on the album. This was a difficult album to photograph,it is very shiny and bright in person. I feel these pictures don't really do the album justice. If you put this album in the sunlight,it will blind you! I had a ton of fun with it and I feel it's very elegant and a great way to display Christmas photos!

Love these ornaments!

I found these wooden sled ornaments at Michaels and had to get them! They were in a bin marked 75 cents,but actually rang up at 60 cents,which was even better! I used paint and crackle medium on them,and then ran my TH walnut stain ink pad over them to make them appear aged. These were so easy to do,and remind of a simpler time. I can't wait to put these on my tree!

Time for Christmas cards!

I've got my cards started for the year,I'll probably end up making twenty or so,and I like to make them all different! I love giving/getting handmade cards. I know some people don't,so I only give them to those who will appreciate them. How about you? If you would like to exchange cards with someone who would treasure it,I would love to do it. Just leave me a comment with your email included,and we'll get it set up!
