In a moment of madness i decided to try and set up a mini album trade….
There are loads of these things around, but as far as i know, none in Ireland ( don’t quote me on that though, more like none i’ve heard of in Ireland!)
So, if you would like to join in, this is how you do it…
Leave me a comment with your email and or blog address, on the 30th of October i’ll gather up all the names, ( obviously, i’ll be far too busy trick or treating and riding my broomstick on the last day of the month!) and on the 1st of each month i’ll post all the pairs of names., & email you all your swap partners addresses.
The mini albums must be no bigger then 6″x6″, no smaller then 31/2″ x 31/2″.
They must have at least 6 pages, and i will give a theme for each month, which knowing me will be very vague. The books must be in the post by the 25th of each month, and you can send photos or a video of your book to me and then everyone can see your work on the blog!
Pheww, that was alot of information!
Anyway, i hope there are a few of you interested, looking forward to hearing from you,

Happy Birthday Cathy!! i’m still working on your present… sorry! but here is a sneaky peak!…
This morning the postman brought a package that contained….Ashton’s Mini Book!!
Its really pretty, thank you so much Ashton, i’ve never seen the water drop finish that is on the front cover before.
There are tags and pockets and spaces for journaling, its lovely, bright colours and has pearls decorating the front and back covers. I’ll put up the pictures now, i hope you can see all the details. There are too many details to list!
Thank you Ashton!! xx
Muchos excitement!!
Ashton has posted my mini, she sent it on Tuesday so we will see how efficient the postal service is! i’ll try and make a video of it and if not i’ll put pictures up, so watch this space!!
Also, the Scrapbeach swap list is out today. I’m swapping with Samantha in Georgia, a month ago i didn’t know anyone in America!!
There was a huge delivery at the Crafty Alley Shop today, so if your looking for Adirondack ink pads, distress inks, dimensional pearls or really nice new wooden stamps then thats the place to go……. unless i get them all first!!!!!
Fxx
Yesterdays Crafty Alley craft club went very well. We made bunting, and a 3D flower card, discussed the merits of the BigShot and generally had a good time! Why is it that 3 hours crafting goes faster then any other 3 hours?????
Anyway, lots of get well wishes for Robyn who was unable to join us, You were missed!!
xx
Thank you so much to Robyn for a really great night… eleven women, card making and the nicest chocolate ever!! I had great fun, even the mistakes are pretty! and thanks to her great demonstration i probably have to buy a Big Shot now! but then again i might get the punches… there was just so much to learn, Thanks again Robyn, and especially for the halloween papers, that was really kind.
See you on Saturday,
F.x.
Aghhhhh! i should have published these pictures in reverse! The first one is the back cover, the last is the front…. the black frame has only been stuck down at the bottom so a photo could be added. The only thing i added from my stash were the little gems, everything else came in the kit.
