gimme gimme gimme gimme....

j/k...this is not about greediness...it's about GIVING! we all know it's better to give than receive, but here is a chance to do a bit of both. let's do it.

The first five people to respond to this post
will get something made by me, especially for you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make but I hope you will.

2- What I create will be just for you.

3-They say I have a year to get it to you. But I promise it will NOT take that long.

4- You have no clue what it's going to be. It’s a surprise to both of us at this point.

The catch? You must repost this on your blog and
offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog.


So the first five people who post, and are willing to pass it along,
will get a handmade gift in the mail from me.

When you get it, make sure you post a pic on your blog!

pocket mini

ooh, this was soo fun. i adore this little pocket mini. next time, i'm gonna use longer envelopes o make it a bit bigger, but this one would still be fun for journaling or wallet photos. and oh my goodness, isn't it yummy!!??

so, i am pretty sure this is the start of my own etsy store. it is "green" b/c it's recycling envelopes (this one is just regular size card envelopes, but next time, i'm gonna use the long "bill" envelopes.) so, each page has a pocket opening on the outside, so it's actually a pocket, which is great for this size mini album to have the extra space. i am making the inserts now (post pics later)...i was just so excited i had to post the pics of the album right away!

and the pics are clearly posted in reverse order b/c i forgot that blogger did that, so the bottom pic is the front, and upward goes thru the album.
