my jimmy choo...

take a look at my jimmy chooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!


actually doing it is a little more tricky than it looks....you kinda have to plan the pages before you glue them down.

see, january is supposed to be on the inside cover of the book, but because i didnt plan properly it ended up so that december was on the back of the book. not really a big deal; but if i could do it differently, thats what i'd do. oops!


i used up a lot of flowers for this project! i also got a chance to use some new inks that i bought :)

i used a bunch of stash stuff: tulle, inks, buttons, stamps, paper scraps.....using stash stuf makes me :)
once i figured out my color scheme, this album was pretty easy to put together. i wanted something soft, feminine and shimmery so i went with greens, pinks, brown and cream with a slight touch of muted orange.


usually i dont put eyelets in the holes to reinforce them, but for this one i did just to add another touch of color. when i do put eyelets, its usually on an album that has a chipboard cover and paper pages. (i also hoard my eyelets...gotta save it for that *one project* right????)
and of course my infamous chandelier stamp! my friends have noticed that i use it on every project! it's an inkadinkado clear stamp set with 3 chandeliers and 2 flourishes...i believe it was $12....man did i get my money's worth already!
i did this whole album in about 2 hours....

december has to be my fave page :) i got that lady in a stamp set for my 20th bday and have been dying to use it! i felt it went great with this album, what do you think?
i would be happy to teach this album as a class! if you'd like, i can do it as a custom class just for you or a group class with you and some girlfriends! i will charge a $5 teacher fee, and give you a supply list (this way you can use your stashy stuff!) let me know! we can plan it for the beginning of the year if you like!
dont forget our year end inventory sale!

i now present: the Jimmy Choo Calendar

what the heck is a jimmy choo calendar? lets break it down!! jimmy choo is the designer of fabulous women's shoes (the kind of shoes that are drop dead gorgeous and are in no way practical). a calendar is...well a calendar! so what does that mean when you put the two together? you get this:


a beautiful calendar that cant really be used to scribble down appointment dates or important lunches, but DANG is it pretty to stare at!

this calendar was made by a friend of mine...and named by another friend of mine :)
it is so simple really! just a few die cut papers, with a little glimmer mist and some flowers!

the calendar part was just a google image printed off the computer. one could use those little mini calendars (which we are expecting any day now) but my friend said that the mini calendars are made of a kinda flimsy paper and that cardstock would hold up much better.
i love how each page is so different from the others! its like i could stare at each month forever!!!
i also love the chunkiness of this album! it doesnt sit flat at all and looks very charming when it dangles above your desk!

did i mention we recently got a shipment of glimmer mist? yup! i believe there is pearl, gold, a silver and blue in the order we just got, but never fear! for we will eventually get more! (its like pokemon, gotta catch um all!!!
i think i'm gonna get crakin on some of these....they make great gifts! you think my mom would like one???

my friend made this book for a gift exchange that we did and OMG did everyones jaw drop when they saw this bad boy! i was so inspired by this project that i ended up making myself a "Jimmy Choo" the next day!
if you'd like to take this as a class, let me know! i'll be back later to post my version of this album!

I am mini album CRAZY!!!

i have been bonkers for mini albums these days!!!! every new one i make gets more and more awesome and i just cant seem to stop the flow of inspiration!!!! so i decided that since i am so pumped for these things, id try and pass it on to you guys so that hopefully you can catch whatever bug bit me!!!


it all started out with this little guy. its a 4x4 halloween mini album made mostly of bazzill cardstock.

the cover is a black cardstock that i embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder and distressed with silver ink. that ornate name plate is from tim holtz and the "the spooky season" is a fabric tag from Little yellow bicycle.


this page is orange cardstock with a cluster of flowers along the top of the page.


i kinda categorize this page as "not done." just because i have no idea what else to put there... the flourish is from fancy pants and i covered it in tim holtz crackle paint and distress stickles (crackle paint is very difficult to photograph!!!)


this page was my experiment in flaps.


as you can see here, the page opens up and you can add hidden journaling and sneaky photos! if this flap doesnt impress you, dont worry, my flap skills have improved!


one of the few pages with printed paper...very simple and monochromatic dont you think?


this is my faaaaaaaaaaavorite page!!!! since i made this page, i have replicated it soooooo sooooo soooooooo many times! chandelier stamp embossed in black, "boo" glitter letters are from making memories, the flower and brad are from imaginisce


this was my first project using the martha stewart corner/border punches. if i had my way, i'd use this spider web punch on everything!!! i love it sooooo much!!!!

this page is another fave of mine. i made the background paper was made using tim holtz distress inks and inkadinkado clear stamps


and the last page is a bunch of circles!!! i love making pages like this cuz the circles are so bubbly and fun!

so thats one project i've been owrking on! it didnt really take that long to make this album. once i chose the papers, it only took a couple of hours to put it together! 4x4s are so quick and cute! i've made 4 others in different color schemes! i have a ton more to make, but before i do, i've got to complete my other projects (one of which you will see tomorrow!)
see you guys later!!!!
