School is starting…

If you are like most of us… your kids are finally going back to school! Or, you have a little one just starting Kindergarten! (Loved this little chipboard book to capture all those first day photos!)
It’s also a time, where as Moms you can finally start getting back to your regular schedule. For us, that’s the perfect time to remember you have time to do something for yourself. I have a ton of photos piling up from summer, trips we took, or just family photos, and I just long to get SOME of them into albums or journals.
I thought I’d finally start to get organized, and make a mini book! I realized I had a TON of photos of my daughter with all her friends from play group, the library, daycare, etc… I wanted to make something that wouldn’t take long, but had room to journal about each group of friends, and who they were.


I started searching through all the Creative Cafe projects we had from the design team, and found this ADORABLE mini book that Greta had done with the new AccuCut die shapes! I was so excited to find something I could do quick and easily! I just love how there is a great photo on each page, AND plenty of room to write about her friends too!

We’d love to hear what you have been doing to get back into your “creative self”… now that school is starting! What creative projects are you working on?

Thanks for sharing your adorable mini album. I have been working on
Christmas gifts for my secretaries. I am giving them cute boxes from Joann’s
filled with handmade cards for all occasions. I have ten different cards so far.

This is adorable! I was so wrapped up in pre-school graduation the whole starting kindergarten thing sort of came and went. Back I go…with this album. Thanks for the reminder.
Hi,
I always love what you post and try to comment often.
In response to the question about wanting to know what CC projects we are working on, well, I can tell you this, I am more motivated to pull out my CC stuff and work with it more when the blog is updated. I love the product and would love to see more things posted on the blog to help me use the products that I have purchased… and believe me I think that I own everything…….. I know that CC has a fantastic design team. I check this blog everyday, hoping to see something new. So back to the question, I am not working on anything, I would love and appreciate some new inspiration. My CC products would love to be used…… it’s been a long time!!!
What a sweet project.
I am dragging out all my Halloween goodies to get last year’s Halloween pics scrapped. Better late than never!
Very cute! I’m working on a little “4 Laughs” mini book made with the new papers and using packaging from the MM Noteworthy brads as my book cover. I intend to put various funny shots in this little treasure.
