Here are some things I've recently made using scrapbook paper.
Firstly, my Christmas cards..jpg)
Now, these are not your typical cards--- I've used 3 scrapbook paper sheets per "card" which I've glued together and folded to create a photo album of sorts. (photos are of my grandson, I'm a proud Nana! lol).jpg)
Each one holds 10 photos-- next year I'm going to put some on the backside as well. (second grandchild is a'coming!) Instead of using actual photos, I photocopied the photos so everything folds nicely and is less bulky~ .jpg)
I used foam core which I covered with wrapping paper as the front and back covers. I'll just tuck in my Christmas card under the bow and taaaaaaaaa-daaaaaaaaa cute as a button!.jpg)
Paper pinwheels-- .jpg)
These were created with the leftovers from the papers I used to make my Christmas photo albums.

A paper covered tray--.jpg)
I picked up this small "table top" for .95cents from a local thrift store... at one time I had it painted white and on top of a stool as a impromtu table. Now its pink with a paper glued onto the center of it... edges sanded of course *love that shabby chic look* I have this next to me on my sectional sofa to use as a table to hold things so nothing slips between the couch cushions lol. It is small, only 14 1/2 inches across-- perfect for the t.v. remote control & a soda! lol

Everything is adorable and your paper pinwheels are the best! :)Nancy
I love all of these, especially the table top. It's adorable! I love the elf idea, I may try that one too. I've seen these elves around that everyone is crazy about, they come with names and everything. I'll have to be on the lookout. So fun!!
I love the pinwheels did you have a pattern that you followed or got any good tips that you learned from making them? Love the little mini album...you are very creative...:)
