For this blog hop, I decided to finally make a mini album about a camping trip we did with the American Heritage Girls and Trail Life Boys last first weekend of fall:


So far I only finished 2 pages, and have everything planned for the following 10 pages. It was a fun trip to South Llano Texas state park and we too way too many pictures.

This is the first inside page:


The inside of the acrylic cover page:


I will have 4 acrylic pages in total inside of this fun 6x6 album.

This is the first regular page:


My daughter is the girl with the bandana.
The back of this page has a tap which opens. I have in total 3 pages with taps:


I added this border sticker to mimic a tap to grab the tap page:


The page with the open tap:


I hope to finish this album over the weekend and will update this post with finished pages asap.

These are material I used:



From Kaiser crafts:


A close up to the cover page and the ribbons for binging. They will adorn the o-rings  that I will use for the binding when I gave the album completed:

I had a very chaotic week. The last one of school and from my work before the summer vacation. I'm sure that it was the same for all of you too.
Well, our family favorite sport is hiking, thus, I decided to finally publish this double layout:



I made it a while ago for father's day for my husband, but never got to publish it. So here it is.
I used a kit from CTMH, long time ago discountinued, and hiking pictures of my daughter's first hike. She couldn't even walk, but we brought her along with us to our hikes in Colorado. A year later, she did her first mile hike...


I am your last spot in the hop.
Here's our line up in case you get lost along the way.

Be sure to join us next month for our
Adventure Awaits Blog hop!

This the inside of the cards:


I used some leftover negative cuts from an old project for the shaker:


And I paired each of the cards with one of this cute tea bags for taking relaxing baths:


 I really like how easy was to make this set. Next time, I'm planning in adding some treats in the shakers, but I didn't have any this time.

For this fun hop, I got inspired by some Hero Stamps I had from last year:


I was feeling anxious and under the weather, so this is my uplifting creation:


some closeups:






Also how I made it:

I used my last kit from Clear scraps, which contained a cute mini wooden palette and this stencil raining hearts stencil:


It also included this pearl modellier creme, so I decided to do some resisting inking:



While the paste was drying, I did inked some leftover pieces from a Swirlydoos kits from long time ago: 



I used my SNAP, CraftWell to cut some stamped images:



And used some Dylusions inks and Tattered Angels spray and "lifted" the resisted ink with a paper towel from the stencilled shapes: 


Finally, I stamped randomly some "rain" with silver colorbox ink and used 3D dots to add all pieces and voila I got my mood lifted...
