It’s just a quick and easy way to keep track of what is going on with our family and not having to take the time to create a super pretty scrap book. Since I wanted it a little nicer than my high school ones, I put my own spin on it and made a little DIY Smash book.

i participated in the happy little moments class at studio calico a few months ago. it was amazing. i have made my fair share of mini albums over the years, but i had never altered an older book. i loved every bit of it. and it's one of my favorite books to date. it's just so pretty. i finished the book during the class, but i struggled with the cover. i think i always struggle with the covers for some reason. it's just so "permanent" if that makes any sense??? finally i took the plunge and decided simpler is better. i covered it with some of my favorite dear lizzy paper, a doily and a title. i used some canvas along the spine to make it look more "book" like. have you ever altered a book? my favorite part is all of the little bits and pieces sticking out of the sides!! fingers crossed that studio calico will have another happy little moments class in the future!! :)

Page thirteen. The playground picture was taken from yyellowbird's photos: www.flickr.com/photos/yyellowbird/2263335186/ And the little girl was taken out of a Frankie magazine. I think she is so cute. Little interview snippits are glued around the page, with scraps of paper. For an art assignment, the theme was 'The Street'. I chose to do an altered book, relating loosely back to abandoned things. It is all very influenced by yyellowbird's photography, Frankie magazines and various poems that I have found inspiring. [[Work in progress!]]

So I've recently been intrigued by this apparently not-so-new scrapbooking style called Smash Booking. I must admit, I am an avid scrapbooke...
The coptic stitch bookbinding method is another way to bind your book with a spine that opens up completely, so you can lay your book flat. Sometimes it’s also called chain stitch in bookbinding, but more often it’s called coptic stitch binding. I think it’s a great method for when you have book covers that […]

This album was made using both the Tim Holtz "Halloween Haunts" kraft resist paper and My Minds Eye "Haunted" paper line. I used chipboard for the covers and a variety of pieces for the inside. I used the black policy envelopes, chipboard, catalog envelopes and a coffee sleeve. I used my bind-it-all on the binding. The Halloween on the cover opens up to reveal the word SPOOKY and two photo mattes. The photo matte on this page makes a pocket to hold the policy envelope. More photo mattes. Two Chipboard inserts for photos. Tag is held by a coffee sleeve.

Scrapfest is on my mind because it's coming up in September! I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! I realized that I never shared last year's Scrapfest smashbook with you! It's about time, right? Here it is... I didn't do anything with the cover, except for labeling the spine with alpha stamps... This is the inside front cover. I put the advertisements for Scrapfest here... It was fun taking the Smashbook pages and making them work for this project! This title page originally had an illustration of a cake, which I covered up with the pink circle, and added my own title... An envelope holds our hotel reservations, and a pocket holds all of our miscellaneous schedules, etc... I ended up doing quite a few fold out pages. I just tore out a page from the back of the book, and taped it on to the right edge with some paper tape. This one has my packing lists... A page about the kick-off crop on Thursday nite. The little kraft envelope holds the game pieces from our scavenger hunt... Here I taped on an envelope to stick my receipts in; which folds out to reveal my workshop schedule... For each class I did a fold out page. On the left is the class description (the little character on the right is a chipboard embellie from my stash).... and when you fold it out, you see photos, journaling, and a pocket to hold class handouts... Here's a random note page, and a page about meeting April, Nicole and Kelly from Studio Calico... Amy Tan's Class was so much fun... The Ditto Album class had tons of freebies... Some pages were reserved just for journaling, which I did each night before bed... Here's another fold-out page. This one is about the My Mind's Eye crop on Friday night... This is the class that all of my scrappy girlfriends and I took together... I had to include the cute napkin from Caribou coffee... This page has a little story, and it makes me giggle every time I see it. No offense to Archiver's, but we noticed that times must've been hard last year, because the prizes they were giving out were, well, let's say, not the greatest. Alot of the stickers were so old they weren't even sticky anymore, and some of them were all crinkled up like they had literally been pulled out of the garbage. The girls and I got to talking about them, and I started to feel sorry for the poor, sad embellishments. That led to a discussion about how the embellies couldn't help it that they were old and crinkled, and they wanted to be used on a page too. This led to the idea that we could create a little island for misfit embellishments right in the Smashbook! It ended up being one of my favorite pages! I especially like all of the little bunnies... On the left is a pic of the little trinket jars I made for my girlfriends. On the right are ATCs that Lynn, Anne and I traded... Michelle Hill's Epiphany Crafts workshop was so much fun, and she is really nice!... The October Afternoon workshop foldout... The 7 Gypsies workshop... And, finally, the inside back cover, which holds a photo of the girls and me in the largest Scrapbook page in the world! I must say that the Smashbook was the perfect choice for documenting Scrapfest! I worked on it a little each evening in the hotel room, and by the time Scrapfest was over, I had a lot of this book already done! Now, to get busy preparing for this year's festivities!!! Thanks for visiting my friends!!!
