Thanksgiving Blog Hop!











Hi everyone! Welcome to this Thanksgiving blog hop! Hope you are excited as I am to see what everyone has created for this 2- day blog hop! If you are arriving at my blog from My Fantabulous Life, then you are in the right place! If not, please start the blog hop at Amy's Digi-Scraps and come back here later!
For my first project, I chose to create this paper bag mini-album,which I am going to give to my sister-in-law for Christmas - I just LOVE how it turned out. The chipboard cover was covered in canvas which I had painted with acrylic paint and modpodged Cricut letters on.
The instructions I used for creating a paper bag album were from a video I found on Youtube by Laura from Following the Paper Trail - if you are not sure who she is, go find her! She absolutely a creative genius.
I used a ton of Cricut cartridges for this album, I wish I could go step by step in the detail or that I could have done a video to show all of the elements. There are just so many things that the picture doesn't show!
For your next stop on this blog hop, please go visit Time to Create and see what she has in store for you! And don't forget to come back tomorrow to see my next Thanksgiving themed project - it was something I had never tried before and it turned out great!
