Accucut Camera Travel min-album scrapbook instructions

Another variation of an old favorite - I love this die, but it did have one challenging feature - the LENS hole... I found these clear top tins and though they would fill that space perfectly, and I could put a micro-mini inside... So I had Accucut create a custom die made of the camera outline as the base for the tin. The album is bound with my Cinch, and I used various vintage travel log designer series paper. I used my Cricut to cut "CLICK" it's from Creative Memories - Traveler and the "Flash" is from Cricut Crash! Boom! Pow! I used some ribbon to make a wrist strap. There is Tim Holtz film strip and Sizzix Sizlet film strip on the side - I did glossy accent the film strip to give it the shiny appearance. I did the micro-mini accordion style, and I'll leave space to journal on alternating pages. I used the Accucut gift card pocket - oldie, but a goodie! The little camera is also an older Sizzix die (yellow). I added journaling

Reusable snack bags - from Trader Joe's shopping bag

It hurts my feelings a LOT to throw ziplock bag after bag, after bag away… and you can only use them so may times before they simply look disgusting, and/or fall apart. I happen to stumble across this idea on "oh yay, Pinterest" and I thought I can make those… but I could not find "cute" food safe fabric… until it struck me that TJ's had fun bags that would most certainly be food safe, right…? here they are sealed with the velcro closed I took a seam ripper and opened the bag out until I had one big piece of fabric, selected the area I wanted and cut to my desired size - I choose 6"x 19" the full length of the bag, this made the two snack sized bags above. I think I'll make a few 6"x 14" to mimic the zip locks that I toss away - NOT ANY MORE…!!! I folded the edge over, and pinned one side of the the velcro (velcro width is 1/4" from edge of fabric to accommodate the side stitch) to the wrong side of the fabr

Leather Coffee Cozy

I have an amazing collection Melody Ross "Chipboard" Stamps for leather brackets that I do at summer camp - and I considered a class for ladies, but I talked myself out of it thinking that most ladies probably wouldn't wear them, (the jury is still out on that one)… then it struck me, leather coffee cozies!!! Everyone loves a coffee cozy! So I grabbed my template from this craft and had at it. I had already decided I wanted it to say "Choose JOY" and as the project progressed one of my very good friends found herself in a time where she was choosing joy over the adversity in her life, so I completed it and it became hers! Here is the one I made for myself - anyone that knows me see the humor in this being my favorite verse :) Psalm 46:10
