More Inspiration from Pass the Book

I made another layout today for the Pretty Paper Party, immediately after seeing Shimelle’s prompt, but I’m too tired to upload and edit the photo, so how about a few more cards inspired by Sharing Your Story.

On page 35 I found this:

And created a birthday card (now addressed to a male friend for his November birthday).

I loved this cracked paint butterfly on page 49.

The front of this minibook prompted me to get out my crackle paint. I could only find one jar, and it was pretty old. It took several coats and a bit chipped off. I’m quite sure I have some more, but that will require cleaning the craft cupboard. But I like it enough to try it again.

And lastly for tonight, this was found on page 52.

I like the design of this card a lot, but it’s my least favorite of all the cards I made. I used some old, old My Mind’s Eye die cuts and used some new Studio Calico “Shine” mist on the orange cardstock.

We’ve had the best week ever with everyone here. Adam arrived from his conference in Virginia this afternoon, and we all went out to eat tonight. Baby Skylar slept through the whole dinner. She is one of the most contented newborns I’ve ever known. The days have flown by, and it will be hard to send everyone off during the next few days.
