Revealed.
And here we go - this is what i made with it... (& i might add that because of the CRAZINESS of this past month, i made ALL of this in one night. yep.)
...15 Months. Oversized favorite Noah pic. And i definitely channeled my "inner-Laura" here. Which i should do more often bc i really liked the result. ;)
..."E". Photo by my amazing sister. I want to bottle light like that. ;) And i cheated and hid all the "here's" on the 'you are here' stamp in the main on this page. This page is 100% Main kit made. :)
...Hello There. I officially LOVE you bird on a wire stamp.
...Thanks. To studio calico for including these fabulous chipboard butterflies in Addon #3 Meadowlark. They were so fun to Zing! up in layers. ;)
And now on to my mini-album. So glad i got this one done this month. And I'm proud of the hand-journaling here, since I have a full-fledged phobia of writing on my projects. ;)
...the circle background stamp was a great fit on the cover.
...(a favorite 'selfie' shot).
...we walked across the brooklyn bridge - need to get actual photos from the trip up on the blog this week!
...and wandered into central park.
...and ate at republic. which kp originally introduced me to almost two years ago. its delish. :) i insisted that eric try it. he agreed!
...and then i took a solo trip to the "top of the Rock" (rockefeller ctr). eric was ummm "stuck" in the hotel room. fortheday. yep, let's just be glad he made it to the wedding that we were there for that night. ;)
...and finally shakeshack. our new love. we WILL visit you again in miami shakeshack, you can count on it. ;) kp should join us again in MIA. but this time for more than 15 minutes!
...THE END.
:)
((hope you love this month as much as i did.))
WOW ... love em : love em: love em. I need to come over the NY so I can make an album like that - lol. Love how you have used the bird stamp on the card. Thanks for your great inspiration and sharing your creativeness with us all. x

Love the mini album and "E" page. And your handwriting is so nice - you should use it more often. :)

I love the idea of using an extra large photo as the background! Great layouts and projects Susan!

Gorgeous work on these kits! I think you should hand journal more - love your handwriting!

The Field Guide kit is AWESOME. And next time you're in NYC, if you want a really good burger and shake without a long wait time, hit up BRGR. Delicious AND they have really good sweet potato fries, if that's your thing.

would kill for it.

oh Susan ! this girly layout is just amazing!! and I love the mini!! I think you did so well hand writing it! it gives so much soul to your memories!!

I looked at these, pinned one to scraplift when I get my kit ;-) and went back to my reader. But then I saw Stephanie Howell's Field Guide LOs and I realized just how amazing this kit is. After all, I got 3 of the add-ons, something I haven't done in months. Anyway, just want to say your LOs are gorgeous, and I can't wait to get my kit!

I really love all the projects! Especially the mini.
I like your handwriting, but I know your phobia ;-) I'm the same - and in the end it's all right :-D

I LOVE LOVE LOVE your minibook....just ordered one for me, thank you as always for your inspiration !!
Posted by: Lauren B. | September 29, 2011 at 12:20 PM
Susan, love your minibook. Dumb question, do you print your own small pictures? I always order 4x6 and can never do cool projects like this and can't figure out how to order smaller ones without getting 8 wallets of the same pic.

hi brenda! totally not a dumb Q. i resize my images in photoshop and then print them on a white 4x6 base for convenience. here is a link to the tutorial that i did on 4x6 collages - same principle just leave some white space around your image for a miniprint with a white border like i used here. :) http://studiocalico.typepad.com/studio_calico/2011/04/susans-tutorial.html#comments

Susan, thank you so much! We just got our first Mac last week and I want to get PSE loaded on there. This looks simple enough for me to do as a beginner. Now, if only I could be as good of a photographer as you...
