PEACE

TGIF!!! I am so happy that it is Friday and the weekend is here even if it is cold and pouring rain outside. I am also happy that October is nearly over as this has been a very hectic month to say the least, for us anyway.

Today I have a little project from Day 7 of Taylored Expression's 12 days of Christmas which Taylor originally released in October 2010. She referred to it on her blog recently and announced she is having a Holiday Hoopla sale with 25% off select 2009 & 2010 holiday stamps sets thru Nov. 2nd. There is a special coupon code to get the discount so check out her blog for details. Now for my altered Acrylic Accordion Album which closely patterns hers because I loved everything about it, pure sweetness ;) in every way.

I cut my paper according to Taylor's specifications but do note that you need to back the DP with a solid which is larger and you will need to measure each panel. Mount the DP to the solid AND then to the acrylic album which is not what I did, duh, last night as I was rubbing weary eyes trying to finish this. Guess I made this one for us, hehehe, which works for me. Another idea is to do the reverse side in a fall or Valentine theme to get twice the use and check out the awesome project Taylor created with this album of her handsome nephews, too cute. I imagine little "Miss Madelyn Van Bruggen" will have one this year as Taylor is a new Mommy. Ok, look for more of these altered albums and projects from the 12 days of Christmas coming soon. I really hope you'll check it out because there is a lot of inspiration there!

Enabler Alert! Read no further if you do not wish to be enabled but if you do then this info will be helpful hopefully.
