What a great weekend it was

We got back last night from spending the weekend on the island visiting my parents. It was a busy weekend but we had a lot of fun! It always seems that we have to cram so much into the little time that we have to spend there now. It was my mum’s birthday a few days ago on May 10th and I made her a little paper bag album (pictures below) - so once again Mum - Happy Birthday!!!

I hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day yesterday!

    I am trying to make one of those mini books like you did and i was wondering what you did to bind them together? How big did you make the pages?

    i saw your album on scrapbook.com and then came to your blog to see more pics. I wanted to know if you will post instructions on making it. I was trying to see what you did to bind the pages. Did you fold the paper bags in half? What is in between the open end of the paper bags? I love this idea and would love to make one for my mom. Thank you.
