Here's a album I made a few months back for a very special friend - She is an "East Coast" transplant that has taken on the task of remodeling an older farm house on some acreage that she and her husband purchased in a small town in KS. She is such an inspiration to me and from the first time I met her (which was actually through business) I really felt like I had met someone who understood alot of things I want to accomplish in my everyday life. She now has chickens (for her own eggs), Honey bees (for her own honey) and a garden this past season that is amazing! What a wonderful life she is creating - I must admit that I do miss seeing her as often as I wanted since she lives a few hours away now but I think about her everyday! I try to "repurpose" in every way possible and she & I both love old "stuff". She and her husband are remodeling and reusing as much of the original wood, doors, and windows in unique ways in their house. I wanted to make her a smallish flip album for her to display her "before and after" photos. I used "Daisy D's" paper - not sure of the theme but it has such rich colors and the theme was definitely "Country". I also used an album pattern from Laura Denison (from "Follow the Paper Trail") which uses envelopes and cards and her magical "hidden hinge". I took these picture before I added the title to the front "Black Dog Farm" and also had an "Established" date.
