Pictures of Christmas Gifts

On Thursday while I was at my mom's for New Years, I took the chance to take some pictures of some of the gifts I made for her. I know I promised to share them with you once the holidays were past. So here they are:

The first is a calendar I made out of coasters for her desk at work. The paper used is Evensong and I used the Celebrate Life My Acrylix stamp set.

The next two pictures are of a mini album I made for her using the 9" x 9" My Creations Memory Showcase, the paper used for the project is Whoops-A-Daisy. All products are CTMH. For the words Family and Love I used The Cricuit to cut those out. The stamp set I used was Celebrate Life also.

This last project was a joint gift to my mom from my grandmother and I. This past summer my grandmother had given me a box full of pictures of my mom, and asked me to do an album for her for Christmas. Well for those of you who know me, I have a tendency to wait tell the last minute. I did a total of about 16 8"x8" pages, all in about a weeks time. Yeah I know what was I thinking. It just took me forever to find the right paper and embellishments for the project. But finally I did at Michael's and the rest is history as they say. On Thursday I just took a few pictures of some of my favorite pages.

Now you know why I couldn't share this pictures early, the gifts wouldn't have been a surprise to my mom since she checks my blog often. Oh well they were worth the wait right.

Thanks for looking! And by the way she cried when she say you album all about her.
