Scrapped Gifts

Last week we were visiting family & friends in California so I wasn't around to post my scrap. This week I have gifts to show that I made as well as some scrappy gifts I received. :D Each year my sister, best friend and I exchange gifts with each other. This year we had dinner together and then swapped gifts before dessert. I was SO excited to give them their gifts and enjoyed opening mine too!

Tada's:

I scrapped this board book {spells family} for my best friend. I chose colors that would coordinate with her living room decor and put a clip on each photo mat so she can change out the pictures if she wants to. I'm thrilled with how it turned out and I know she likes it too.

I altered this 12x12 frame for my sister - also coordinating with her living room decor. I printed out one of my favorite most recent photos of my niece so it wouldn't be blank. I loved how this turned out & wish they had more in stock for me to make one for myself. =]

These are the scrappy gifts I received. My sister altered this photo cube that spins & has a lid for storage. It is super cute & was filled with tons of fun scrappy goodies. Thanks again sis!! My BFF gave me two mini albums and a cute teapot & teas in a basket. The first was about Best Friends & filled with photos of us - two pages left blank {shown below} that I'll be filling soon. The other is a Thanksgiving themed mini album for me to fill - also I'll be doing that soon. Later she shared some dollar aisle goodness with me by giving me two little albums that I can alter the covers & ribbon - inside they're like a board book. I didn't show all of the albums that she gave me - you can find more pictures on her blog.

Todo's: I have to make my neice's homemade gift this week but other than that I don't think I'll get any scrapping done. At this point I don't plan on getting my Christmas letter out until after the new year.
