So it's been a while. Thanks for point that out Karen and Royce - LOL. I was doing so well, and then Annual Conference at church happened and serving 300 people lunch a couple of times wears you out! Now VBS is taking over the craft time. Anywho, I have been making new things. Here are some, and I will try to be more consistent...

Some birthday cards I'm working on for a swap that I'm participating in. 1) cupcake in an oval aperature, 2) a card inspired by Susan of susanbluerobot.blogspot.com, 3) a card with letters cut out again inspired by Susan, 4) a waterfall card (you pull the tab at the bottom, and each square flips over to reveal a new image (okieladybugscrapnmore.blogspot.com), and 4/5) a simple card with birthday cut out at the bottom.
My new fave is an album/minibook made of paper lunch bags. Here are three that I made using 2 different configurations. Pictures 1 and 2: the inside isn't complete, but there are extra pages that you can make that will fit into the opening of the bags for extra journaling/photo space. Pictures 3-7: A small paper bag album and a picture of the inside pages. This album also has some tags inside for extra journaling space. The last couple of pics are another album I made that has a beachy, birthday theme for "I's" mermaid party.

A number mesh made with CDS. It didn't quite cut right. The "6" in the lower right quadrant is a bit off. I think I'll have to use a new mat next time. This took 7-10 minutes to cut out!
