Being the second child in the family means having my brother in most of my childhood photos.



Let's dress up book

Of late, I've been making 6 x 6 mini album covers. It's a great way to use up scraps and practise my "embellishment clustering" skills...*LOL* I haven't decided what would go into this mini...maybe my childhood photos? I was vain as a little girl and a total bag lady...just have to get round to cropping my brother out of my photos...he's in practically every shot [ the pain of being the second child..*LOL*]

Supplies: Crate Paper chipboard, sticker and papers, May Arts ribbon, Maya Road trim, Jenni Bowlin button, twine, tag, crochet bloom (all from Your Scrapbook Stash)

P/s: Don't forget to enter my "You've got mail" giveaway and the Bows and Berries digi giveaway! :)

    Try being an identical twin! It's impossible to crop out the other half! Fabulous mini cover, those colors are divine.

    what a great mini-i love it! it's so funny that you said that because i just had this conversation with my sis about my nephews-the little one barely has any alone pics because big bro is in them too-not that you want to exclude anyone, but you definitely want to capture him in his on lime light too :)
    i'm the second child as well and completely sympathize!

    happy scrappin and thanks for your kind comment on my blog-i am feeling a lot better :)

    Thanks for letting me know about the stamp! Yes, i will try to pen down the lovely moments once the xmas season is over. :)

    Anyway, being the last child in the family, i didn't have much childhood pictures. I guess my parents grew tired of taking pictures of my sister and brother. haha! So glad that you have so many childhood photos!
