Pet Project...an Album All About My Dog, Missy

I have been working on an album all about my dog, Missy. And here is the start of the album. It's an 8x8 album. Any journaling appears on the back of the pages. I really wanted to showcase my precious dog.


Materials used on this layout:
Paper: brown (Bazzill Basics), textured teal (DCWV), sparkle dog paws (Cloud 9 Design)
Ribbon: stripes by Offray
Letters: Best Occasion punch-out letters
Stickers: dog paws by stickopotamus
Book Plate: Joann
Rub-ons: Simply Sweet by Doodlebug
Brads: Spare Parts by Hobby Lobby





I know what you're thinking...7 pages already and you're not finished? Yeah, I know. What can I say? I love my dog!

Stamps

I have been organizing my stamps. I was reading in one of my Creating Keepsakes magazines about getting organized...hence the previous post. So I downloaded this template here: http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/articles/Tips___Tricks__Inventory_Sheets

I started with my ink pads and I've moved on to my stamps. It has been a great way to see what supplies I have. I think I'll probably archive my punches as well.

Organization

I have been organizing my scrapbooking room. It doubles as our guest bedroom and a storage room, so the space is tight. One day I hope to upgrade to a Scrapbox (www.scrapboxusa.com), but I haven't totally decided (they are expensive). I like having my supplies out where I can see them. Right now I have all salvaged furniture...an old table from the 70's, cheap plastic shelving, another shelf from my sister-in-law, and an old office chair. I'll take what I can get. Most of the stuff was free!
