key tag mini album

ok, so i stole the idea from Laura (i think) at Following the Paper Trail. she had a you-tube video showing one of these little minis, and i thought it was genious!! she had tags as her album, but i took it one step further and used gift cards that no longer have any $$ left on them. i know, right!! so, the cute little box started out as an orbit gum box!! and the teeny album is made from the gift cards. it is sweet!

she had a magnetic closure, and i just cut the slit and tucked mine in. fun!!!

SCRAP IT...

...the POETRY, that is! Today is the official launch of Scrap that Poetry!! The first poem is Rudyard Kipling's "If", and there is lots of inspiration to be taken from it. You can choose a single word, a line, the entire poem, or your own interpretation, and go in whatever direction you choose. The poems are there to inspire you to create something! Come on over and play with us...we'll share our mojo with you, if you do :)

I chose to focus on the word "ethos" b/c what i took from the poem was about maintaining a sense of character, your morals, your beliefs. i made this page for my boys, jotted the definition on a card and tucked it in :) simple and sweet. tfl, folks :)

check out The Sweet Stuff shop over at etsy. just added a new mini album yesterday, and will be adding another fresh baked item today (hint: Basic Grey "Eerie") :) :)

thanks, sweeties!

mini mini bo bini....

a fresh from the oven mini over at The Sweet Stuff by Tonia Rhodes shop! journaling cards and pockets swivel out to allow you to place photos, or whatever, underneath. this really is a sweet one. i hesitated to title this one myself...wanted to allow you the opportunity to title it to suit your needs. however, i could totally see it as a "book of me". perfect little quotes in it to go in that direction.

working on some more goodies today, and check out the sweet little halloween embellies i added recently! tfl girlies :) :)
