Closed but Active PaperBag Album Swap Check in Here!!!

[KatDisney]

I did the cover to one of my albums last night and put all the ribbon's and brads on the tags.. thats as far as I have gotten, I have to wrap up my surprise and color swap then I can really play with these more. They are rather addicting though. I was in Michaels with DD the other day and I found these adorable brads and ribbons, I had to get them of course and then I found more paper and and..lol.. All I can say is I am glad I didn't do more than 2 bags. This way I can devote lots of time and care into each bag.

I will post more pictures soon.

Seriously, what was I thinking when I signed up for so many? I so much paper for them, ribbon, ribbon with beads, brads, eyelets, Jolees, Sandylions, Bling, who wants to go shopping at my house?

I did the spines and ribbons of my first group, and put one cover on. But I'm still wiating for my BAzzill

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Well, if you didn't mind me cutting it down to the 6x6 for mailing purposes, I'll send you some.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

What time will you be Mickster? Should I prepare lunch or dinner?

I plan to do a lot of homemade embellishments and try a few new things with these..

[Downrivermama]

I have mind folded and have most of the paper and stuff. I have to stay out of my LSS! After this weekend (dd's dance recital) things will slow down and I can get them done.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

bump,

I asked this question in a previous post..no response...
could someone let me know..
What are we condsidering Mickey and friends (the Fab 5?) or can I include Chip and Dale???

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I Chip & Dale. Mickey has done cartoons with them, so that makes them friends in my eyes.

 

[Mickeyteacher]

I'm all folded and ready to start embellinshing them this afternoon. I do have to wait until I get the kiddie's lunch first.

I love C&D too. They're becoming favorites of mine because of their playfullness in the parks

 

[MazdaUK]

DS(7) LOVES C&D I've been assured my Bazzill is on the way and will reach me by 6/6 at the latest, but I want it NOW

I counted up and I do have enough to do all 6 books, with even some left over (Boy am I going to be in trouble when the cc bill comes in ) but I'm waiting on some bling for some of the pages and, much as I love it, I don't think I want to use it on every single page for 6 months

I've got embellishments and ribbons though, so I might get the covers done. I've got some neutral stuff coming for tags to make it easier to write on - probably won't use it for every one (bit boring ) but I thought it would be good to mix it in a bit. I can see June is not going to be a good month for completing album pages

The above is titled, Jolee's 10 dimensional stickers Cruise.

I have 7 of these. They were $0.75 each at Hobby Lobby last night. I know I will never really go on cruise so I won't really ever use them. BUT I knew that I had some DISfriends who might like them. So if you want to trade for like valued, let me know.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Those are too cute AWM.. but like you, I won't be going on a cruise either...too scared of not seeing land for miles...

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Great.. I will add C&D to the mix!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I have to stay away from the clearance section of Hobby Lobby. I bought up those and some soccer Jolee's and British Jolee's. I definitely got the raised eyebrow when my DH saw them. "Don't you have enough stickers?"

 

[Faerie]

AWM - your DH sounds like my BF and my paper addiction My answer - Um NO!
