Hump Day Craft Post: A disney album for a friend
Last year as a gift for a friend I made this Disney scrapbook album. I had a lot of fun making it and (though I worried about) my friend absolutely loved it. I never made anything quite like it for someone else before and I worried that my tastes (which tends to be a little juvenile) wouldn't be quite her style.
But I worried for no reason. She loved it so much that when they went to Disney again she asked me if I would make her another album, even offering to pay for it.
After about six weeks of work, I gave her the new album last week. I'm happy to report that she was just as happy with this one. Maybe even a little more. With her permission, I am sharing it with you.

Feelin' Crafty Wednesday: Disney Autograph Books
I've posted some of these before. I made these ones about two weeks ago. Since March is National Craft Month I thought I'd share with you how they are made.
The plain 6x6 books I got in a stack of 25 from Ebay. The Tigger and the Pooh are cut using the Pooh and Friends Cricut cartridge. It's an oldie but a goodie. I think the Tigger is 3 1/2 inches and the Pooh is 4 inches. I used the Mickey Font cartridge for the names. The background papers were part of a DCWV Disney stack.
I used plain 12x12 paper for the inserts which I cut into quarters. There are approximately 24 sheets in each book. Before binding it with the Bind-it-all I slid both the front and the back covers into a page protector and sewed the open end shut using my sewing machine. That what if there is an unexpected shower the book will be less likely to fall apart.
The are bound with a 1 inch bind it all o-wire.
If you make any, shoot me the link. I'd love to see them.
Happy crafting!
