Slipping Through Summer
June 2012
Summer is simply getting away from me! The Odum Family, so far, has had a fabulous
summer. We have a few more plans before
it ends! GiGi’s is gearing up for a very
hectic month of July! There will be a
few old friends that I will have the pleasure to see again; and a few new friends
that I look forward to meeting.
Here are a few projects that I have been working on this
summer. Some, I am SURE, that I CASED or
received inspiration from someone or something… However, due to my untimeliness-I could not tell you from where.
Brad and I celebrated our 10 year Wedding Anniversary! It’s hard to believe 10 years have
passed! I wanted to make something for
him, but I usually like making girlie type things and although he would have
acted like he loved it…I tried to man up a project. I think it turned out Fabulous!
This little book, believe it or not, the center part of it
is made from one 12 x 12 sheet of paper!
Yep, it all in how it was cut and folded-each page is a pocket! If you would like the instructions, email me-Tonya@GiGisRetreat.com-I
would be happy to share it with you. I
am not going to list all the items I used, only because I used many various
stamp sets, inks, punches-etc.
I put little messages in each pocket--go ahead...AWWW!
Note of Thanks

This card I CASED from a Stampin’ Success Magazine. Stampin’ Success is a monthly publication
that I receive because I am a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator! It features some of the most gorgeous paper
crafts that other Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators have created as well as projects
that the home office has made or wants to feature. I simply fell in love with this card. I liked it so much…I made several. I have used them not only as a Thank You card,
but as a Birthday Card too. I just
clipped the little tag off and replaced with one that said Happy Birthday!
