Every month I look forward to the last Tuesday when I have the pleasure of creating a gift for a Teapotter. This month's theme of waterpark or beach was the perfect excuse to use this sweet Graphic 45 collection: Sun Kissed, which features children enjoying the beach. I hope my Teapotter has a chance to fill this album with pictures and memories of a fun beach trip.
The front cover features fussy cut flowers and shells, shaped and popped up to accentuate the foreground. Opening the front panel reveals a pocket with journalling cards and a place to stash trip memorabilia. There is a fold out page (not shown) for more photo space. Opening the folio further to find 2 tags, a waterfall section, and another journaling folder. The album ties securely closed with a matching chiffon ribbon.
My heart is filled with joy when I make these gifts of love. Denise, thanks for the great challenge. Sabrina, thanks for the time you put into the swap and notifications.

I love Graphic45 papers! You've made an adorable mini album for this Tickle! Some lucky Teapotter is going to get a lovely surprise when this treasure arrives.

And I'm sure at this stage we all look forward to seeing your wonderful creations, Sonja. I'm glad that I got the tag, which I love to see hanging on my birch branch, but your little albums are amazing. I love the colours in this one. The old-fashioned illustrations remind me of our old childhood copy of The Waterbabies. Loving the extra dimension on the front from the fussy-cutting.
