Holly Jolly Blog Hop


Hi Everyone... Welcome to the Holly Jolly Blog Hop. This hop is hosted by Kristen of Fantabulously Pink. We have a full line-up of talented paper crafters. Make sure you visit everyone's blog for lots of fun.  If you arrived from Christine's site site, you're in the right place.

For my project I made a Matchbook Paperbag Mini Album. It is a fun and easy project to put together. It can be done in a few hours and it will look like you spent a great deal of time on it. I got the inspiration from Kathy Orta. she made one last year and I had bought the paper pack. I had too many projects to do then, however I found the time this year.

The cover of the album resembles a book of matches. Inside are 6 pages made out of the paperbags from Michaels. Inside each page is a pocket on the top which holds a large tag. you can use any page or tag to add photos or journaling.
