Tamins Mini

Hello Bloggers,

I have gained a little friend for crafting sessions - my Daughter.

She always likes to know what i am making and for who/why - she said the other day 'i wish you would make me something' - made me feel bad, so while she was in bed last night i made her a mini album....

She recently found my photo albums and loved looking back at all the old pictures - we look very alike and she got very confused trying to place herself in my baby pictures - bless her!

I decided to make her a mini with pictures of us as a family and it gave me the chance to use the acrylic album i had to get but have been flumped over how to use.

The big Forever friend stickers are the wall stickers now available - Tamsin keeps moving them around the wall and they are breaking so i salvaged what i could.

The other bits are mainly from making memories, some papermania goodies and lots of PINK!. I managed to make use of a recent necklace she broke,reused the large pink heart as a charm to hang from the front.






















Her face this morning when she found it was classic, she gave me a huge hug and said 'thank you for making it for me mummy its beautiful like me' = she has carried it around all day and we had to look through it AGAIN at bedtime.

Thanks for stopping by

xx

  2. That's so sweet. I've never seen acrylic ones - no wonder you were stumped!

    You have made a beautiful album and I am sure Tamsin will cherish it forever.

  3. That was such a lovely thing to do for your Daughter.

    Hopefully it will last a little while:) But I am sure it will be so well loved, as Mummy made it specially. I think I can see a few repair jobs over the weeks ahead, haha
    love
