This cute altered 'Crazy for You' altoid tin is the perfect gift for that someone special. It has an accordion folded cardstock with different sayings and spaces for you to add special notes. On the back of the accordion it is blank for you to add small photos or even embellishments. It is available in our Etsy Shop dezalyssdesigns
We loved making this cute Christmas themed chipboard album. It is 6 x 8 inches and we made it with Simple Stories papers, Bazzill Basics cardstock, and chipboard. We attached the stickers to chipboard and cut them out to give the pages a 3D look and feel. It sold on Etsy, but here are the pictures of the pages and we have a video on our YouTube channel, dezalyss designs, showing the pages turning and tags and pockets (link is at the bottom of this post)

We are loving the Merry Merry project pad from Pebbles Inc. There are so many cute pages in it, along with red and green cardstock. We made some cute little money holders/Christmas tags that would be really cute hung on the Christmas tree or attached to a gift. They are 4.25 x 3.25 inches, with a pocket on the front size 2.5 x 3.25 inches
Here is a video to show the cute paper pack of Merry Merry and to show the back and front of each of the cute Christmas tags/Money holders. Thanks for watching!
We made another 'Camping' themed paper bag album and used chipboard on the front and back covers for added support, and we tried something new by using silver rings to hold all of the paper bags together instead of tying ribbons. We tied a few ribbons and some denim to the silver rings. This one is really simple and we didn't include a lot of extra embellishments. It was a lot of fun to make and experiment with the chipboard and silver rings!

Hey everyone!! We made a short video to show you how a paper bag album looks with photos added. Our family has loved this little book and anyone that stops by will notice it sitting on our coffee table or end table and they just have to look through it. I made it a few years ago and after everyone has looked through it over and over, it is holding up well.
We love these paper bag albums! They are fun and unique and fit perfectly in a bag or purse so that you can have a brag book with you at all times :-)
My husband took me to stay at The Cabins at Bear River Lodge so that I could take some 'fall' themed photos for our upcoming 2018 calendars. We rented a Razor to drive up into the mountains to do some fishing at some of the lakes and to take pictures of all of the gorgeous colors along the way. We wanted to get to the Lyman Lake first, to do some fishing, and then stop at different spots along the way back out of the mountains to take some nature photos.
Unfortunately, a storm was brewing while we were fishing at Lyman Lake and we didn't notice it until we got up to the main road after fishing for about an hour. We could see the storm off in the distance and as we were driving down there was a light rain which turned into big drops and then light snowflakes hitting into our faces as we drove.
My husband caught about 5 fish with and I finally reeled one in just as we were getting ready to leave.
'The Cabins' are beautiful with gorgeous views and sounds of the river behind and below, as well as the beautiful mountains all around!
I love the 'Frankie and Friends' 12x12 collection from Simple Stories! I wish I would have seen it a year ago but since I am getting more into scrapbooking again I had never seen it until recently and now it is retired :(
I wanted to try and show how I put together my paper bag albums so I made my first 'tutorial' video, and I learned a lot to put towards another video but I had fun with it (find it on the bottom of the page, or you can find it here)
