Goodbye 2012

I got all I wanted for Christmas, as my two kiddos were home.

It has been a few years so this was extra special.

As the year ends so does my design team position

with MemoryWorks.

I enjoyed creating and working with the TeamWorks members.

I will not be updating this blog but you can find me and see what I have been creating at this blog

From My Bungalow.

I hope you come visit me there!

Happy, Kraft-y 2013!

I am guessing you came here from the MemoryWorks blog.

Here is a peek inside my album.

I learned this easy, accordian-fold journaling card idea on

My Craft Channel.

Just cut apart a strip of journaling cards (3 or 4) along the horizontal dividing line but do not cut the vertical lines.  Use those lines as guidelines to fold.

Adhere one end onto your page and then you can open it up and add journaling or smaller photos on the other sides.

A few more pictures to show you what I mean...

When I saw this done on the video I had one of those

"AHA, why didn't I think of that?" moments.

If you have not checked out the MemoryWorks blog yet, please do.

The TeamWorks design team has been sharing all kinds of December album inspiration.

For this project I used a Simple Stories album and the "Handmade Holiday" collection.

The sentiment is a Close To My Heart stamp from the "merry and bright" set.

Thanks for visiting!

Happy 12-12-12!

12 Days of Christmas

Just wanted to let you know about a blog share that I am doing at

From My Bungalow

December 1-12.

There will be lots of Christmas-themed inspiration as well as some

blog candy!

Check it out beginning December 1st.

Trio of cards

I got a bit behind on posting my cards for the 30 Days, 30 Cards challenge at the MemoryWorks Studio so today I am sharing 3 cards.  You can play along too on the MemoryWorks blog.  These three cards were made with a Kraft base (from The Kraft Outlet) and stickers and papers from Simple Stories "Handmade Holiday".  Since I started with a Kraft base I am linking up with the Kraft Journal blog weekly challenge.
