It’s Thursday, and that means more Making Memories goodness. Don’t forget to check out the sewing project over at Making Memories blog. IF you want to be eligible for a little RAK, leave a comment here and there. I will announce the RAK winners on Friday.
Today’s project started with 4 pictures of my son Jordan. He’s 3 years old and he loves these 3 non traditional “toys”. I originally intended to make a layout but the pictures seemed to large for a 12 x 12 but too small for a 2 pager. I instead opted for a mini book.
The book is 4″ tall and 8.5″ wide. I have rounded the corners of the pages and the pictures. The papers and trim are from the passport line. The mini glitter alphas are some of my favorites! :)
I hope you like this little mini project…. I hope you are all enjoying the tutorials! I plan to put up more tutorials soon.
As far as the blog here, I think you can register to be user. I am not sure if that will allow you to use an avatar. I sure miss looking at your smiling avatars.
Don’t forget, if you usually read my blog in a feed reader, the new feed can be found here.
Love love ladies, and I’ll blog you later!
Joscie * rhymes with bossy!
I have enjoyed your ‘sewing’ techniques. I love that I don’t have to use a sewing machine. How beautiful they all are. Also, what a cute mini album. You have an cute little subject to work with. Thanks for sharing your creativity. Cherri
Who could ask for more … lello ears and glubs!!!??!! How cute! Love the mini album. As always – great photography!
Wow what a cute little book.
What an easy way to put together a book!!! It looks great as usual. What are the products you used???
Glubs! Love it…made me smile at the memories of my own kids – now adults – say the same thing. Little books are a great way to get it done and make it special. Have a great day!
Cute!
I noticed this morning that I hadn’t received any updates for your blog on my Google Reader. I checked your blog to see if you’ve been posting and sure enough. When I tried to subscribe via my reader, it brought up the last update I got, which was July 11th. I’d love to get your updates through my Reader. Any tips?
Sorry for posting this in comments. I tried finding an email address, but wasn’t successful.
Thanks!

Fabulous mini album!!! It looks like our kids would have quite a bit of fun together as we also have a robot arm! We also have “Ears” that are red with fabric over them to protect ears from fireworks and artillery training since we live on a military base. :)
i just went on your site for the very first time and i love it! your album is very cute and i know that you guys will cherish it!

Great mini :) I love it!
Very cute mini album. I love how you used his words.
Your little album is adorable. Can’t wait to see some more tutorials.
Your mini album is adorable! I have a 4 year old boy so I can relate to their never ending imagination. I always wonder why I always search for the coolest toys for birthdays and holidays when they play with just about everything.
I always make sure to check out the MM memories website every Thursdays. Your tutorials are very helpful.
I really like your ideas for stitching without having to use a sewing machine. And your page is just as cute as those shoes.
CUTE CUTE! Great job, Joscie :)
So cute! Don’t you just LOVE the Passport line?! Best thing that has come out so far- well a fav of mine anyways! LOL I am loving mini books-although, it seems to be taking me FOREVER to just finish 1 page- of course it depends on what i’m doing…did that happen to you at 1st?

Love the mini book! :D It’s funny how kids like the non-toy stuff the most.
My SIL is arriving tomorrow night and I so wish that I could slip into her suitcase on the way home! ;)
When my daughter was 3, my niece once said, “Wow, you got a BOX!!” They had more fun playing with the cardboard box, than the toy!
Thanks for the tutorial. I love the new passport line!
What a great topic to scrap about. Especially what he calls the items. Glubs :)
