Special Gift for G-Maw

BLOG HOP to continue.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Mom's, Grandmother's,
and those who step in and become that special MOM roll model.
Having a relaxing morning with the family and little Trevor brings
me a special gift every day I see him. Today he and my daughter
brought me  3 beautiful flowering plants. Trevor picked them out all
by himself. Great Job Trevor.

Special CTMH Mini Album - Video

Hello my crafty friends. Had to share this video with you
as soon as I saw it.
What an awesome project for a great gift for any occasion.
I love making Mini Albums for special people in my life.
I know Mothers Day is just around the corner. I wanted to share
this with you and for those of us
who tend to wait 'til the last minute...
...I tend to do better under crunch time...LOL!
It is so easy and really doesn't take that long.
(working on mine Fri. & Sat. evening...talk about cutting it close)
She'll love having a mini album that she can tote in her purse when she
visits friends & family to show off her son's past few years.

Then, she'll treasure it later when Trevor takes flight and begins
his journey in life all on his own.
(The thought just brought a sigh to my heart ;) they grow up too fast.)

Hope this gives you some last minute ideas for gift giving . 
The neat thing about this project for me...I can use up more of 
those many many scraps I have. 
Even more spectacular, Close To My Heart papers seem to
 coordinate from paper pack to paper pack from nearly
every (not all) Idea Book from present to past.

Have a crafty week and MOMS, I hope you get to spend
a very special day with family and friends.

May Blog Hop=Art with Attitude!

Welcome to our "Stampers with an Attitude"
May Blog Hop. 
We have a talented group of ladies participating.
Hope you enjoy the line up for our first BLOG HOP~ART WITH ATTITUDE.

If you came from Karen Morris then you are on track. 

My three scrapbook pages have  BOY ATTITUDE  all over them. Thought I would share these layouts I did that were continued over from a couple of pages we did at our "GIRLS DAY OUT" 12 hour crop. I kept them simple. I think the paper pack
gives these pages a lot of attitude.
You are welcome to check out the first two pages I did at Theresa's workshop
that helped inspire these pages for all the many random pics of
my grandson HERE.
I am so Loving this Later Sk8r paper pack.
Can't wait to get my pictures back so I can get them on the page.
(Sorry they weren't ready when I went to pick them up. Of course, I did wait 'til
the last minute to get them processed-my bad.)
It's all good at G-Ma's
 
Smaller pic shows where my pics will go. You may click the pic for a larger view.
