More Albums...

Last week I promised that I would share with you other photo albums that I have made.  These make wonderful gifts for many different occasions.  I posted HERE what type of album I start off with.  Once you have the album just let your creative imagination start to work.  Below are a few different albums I have made.

When my son was turning sixteen, I can't tell you how many "Sweet Sixteen Parties" he was invited to for the girls he knew.  I was looking for a unique idea while trying to be frugal.  The girls really liked them.....



This was the inside of the album.  I put the bible verse
 Ephesians 2:10 inside of the album.



This album was a baby gift for a friend's daughter who just had a baby girl.  I just love making anything that is PINK!  Isn't the little poem on the front of the album so sweet?



Here's a sweet saying for the inside of the book....


This album was for a 70th birthday party.... 
 I love the clock design and saying.  I thought it was perfect for the occasion.


The inside of the album....



When my son graduated high school we were invited to many graduation parties for his friends.  I decided to make the boys these albums to hold all their graduation pictures.


Here's the matching gift bag I made to put the album in.... 
 Click on the photo to read the poem.


I have so many photos and I love to keep them in little treasured albums.  Next time you have a special occasion think about making a one of a kind photo album to give as a gift.  Whoever you give it to will surely know that it is a  "Creation From Your Heart". 
I will be posting this to the following creative sites.  If you are looking for more wonderful ideas stop by....

I love photo album scrapbooks, I make mine out of the cheap-o two dollar flimsy ones and I am going to have to try making some with the same kind of album you used. The hard cover definitely takes it up to another level. You do beautiful work.
