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.

Hump Day Craft Post: Disney Scrappin' for a friend

***clears throat and stands***  My name is Kisatrtle and I have never made a scrapbook for a friend before.    Scrapbooking is such a personal hobby.  What you like, I may not like.  What I like, you may totally hate.

And even though I know this, I took a chance and made a scrapbook for a friend.  She didn't know about it--it was a surprise.  In fact, when I asked her for 100 of her favorite Disney photos, she didn't even flinch.  She just said, "Sure."  I thought that was a bit of a red flag.  "Don't you want to know what I need them for?" I asked.  "Nah," she said, "I'm sure whatever you do with them will be fantastic."

No pressure.

I'm happy to say that I had a lot of fun making this book and my friend LOVED it! 

I've uploaded a slide show of the album for you to look at minus the faces of my friend and her family.  I wasn't sure how she would feel about her family vacation photos floating around in cyberland.
