Happy Thanksgiving


Gobble, gobble!!! I hope everyone takes a minute to think about how fortunate we are to spend time with our friends and family with a full table of delicious food. As we all know, not everyone gets that pleasure! So, do something to help out or just send a little prayer to those in need this holiday season!

I hope everyone enjoys the day!

...until next time...

NEW YORK! NEW YORK!

The capitalization for the title isn't too much, is it? You know what? I don't really care if it is because after 2 months of working on my NYC album, it's finally finished! 

**BEWARE: This is kind of a photo heavy post. It may take a little bit to load.**

The cover is chipboard and I ModPodged a map from NYC onto it, added some letters and some baker's twine. I even got to use power tools (aka - the hubby's cordless drill) to drill the holes in the chipboard. 

I have to admit that inserting the drill bit into the drill is not as easy as men make it look - some assistance is required. I should have paid more attention in shop class. Yes, I took shop class and ag. 



This is a pretty self explanatory photo. BTW, dividers are awesome!


I want to know what possesses a grown man to strip down to his skivvies to be the "Naked Indian, " hence, the question mark. 



This place was pretty awesome. I recommend going to a Madame Tussaud's if you can. The wax figures are so lifelike. They look like they are going to talk to you. 


Magnolia Bakery is cupcake heaven. Hands down the best cupcake I've ever had in my life. This little pocket is actually made out of a cupcake box!

This was a blast to make and I think it turned out okay for being my first ever DIY album! I can't wait to start another one!

...until next time...
