GGS October Trade Mini Album

I've been ever so late getting this mini completed. I'm generally not soooo behind with my projects. But, I did go on vacation for a week and then we have the holiday and all the prep that goes with that. So now I'm trying to get caught up with my projects.

This mini was inspired and influenced by many of my wonderful scrapping' sistahs. It never would have come to life without them. Each project becomes the perpetuation of the techniques and ideas each of our sistahs share with us. I could spend all my waking hours in the Craft Cave with my projects. I feel such a wonderful sense of satisfaction when a project is done and on its way to its new home.

I always think of the buttons from my mother's button box on each project as I send them far and wide. A little piece of my family's history is tucked inside each project. How wonderfully terrific is that. I know the essence of my mother influences each project as I add her buttons. I love making the tags and thinking that perhaps the tags will stay with the mini or that the new owner will use them on another project. I know that as each individual makes the mini "her own", with pictures and journal entries, the beauty of the album increase exponentially.

I hope you enjoy viewing this mini. TTFN

Live long & prosper,
Weezie

  1. I have been watching many videos on mini albums and I have to say this is the best one I have seen. The detail you put into your albums is amazing. You inspired me to have a go at a couple for Christmas presents and because of you I think I am now hooked on making more. So thank you for inspiring me.

  7. I spent a lot of time last fall looking at all of your postings--thought I had bookmarked them. But then couldn't find them. I just looked and looked and finally found you again. I'm so happy. I adore your beautiful minis and look forward to re-visiting each posting again. By the way, my grandchildren call me WeeZee also. My name is Eulouise, and my husband encouraged them to call me this. Is your Weezie name one that your grandchildren gave you?
