This is where I come to be creative with paper, fabric and design.

A sweet memory.......

of a dear friend and her Mama.....made me think of doing this fun 5 year Mini. That's right....5 years of photos of memories of my two grandbabies.
When my daughter was younger and "trick or treating" my friend Carolynn and her Mama always took photos of the kids that came to their house to trick or treat every year. And every year after you would go into their garage, all decorated and ready for the "present year" photo....grab your one from the previous year off a big board and take another new one for the next year. My Daughter LOVED going to their house for many years and we ended up with 4 years of photos to remember what fun we had scouring the neighborhood for goodies.....and ending up at their home for treats and hugs.
So this year I decided to do a "5" year mini album to set our own traditions with my new grandbabies.
Its always fun to have bright colors, funny decorations (we stray far from the scary ones) and enjoy yet another season of fall approaching, the crisp air, the shorter days and the changing of colors.
So within this Halloween Mini...I have many places for photos for those 5 years. I am anxious to add this years photos and then bring it out year after year and add to it. I figured in 5 years.....we'll change it up and do something else fun and colorful. But how great will it be to have my sweet babes look back through 5 years of antics and costumes ......I think it will be way fun.
This is a large album filled with different things to hold 4X6, 5X7, and smaller photos as well.
I have taught this class once and will be teaching it again. Hope to see you in class.....we'll have a great time....:o) Please let me know here if you are interested in the class and I'll get back to you with the details.....this class is 6 hours long with a 30 minute lunch break and a couple...."whew! let's take a break" moments.....so please come prepared to have fun and go home with a completed album!
If I can get my new video camera to talk to my Windows 8 computer....(still working on that....anyone have any hints for me?????).....I'll get a video onto YouTube soon. My YT name is Yorkieyodaldog. Keep checking back....I hope to have it on sometime this week....:o) I'll also be putting out a tutorial for this Mini in a couple weeks....which you'll be able to find here on my blog.

Thank you so for stopping by......and enjoy these beautiful, fall days.
