I love altering things. I don't know why. I love finding a way to use the things I have kicking around. It's both good and bad, it drives me insane to have "stuff" piling up, but it pays off at times like these!
Anyways, finished this for my mom tonight. She goes by "Nama" since that is what the girls call her. For years I called my gramma Buggum because I couldn't say gramma. I don't know... lol.
So here is the cover, and to follow, each set of pages. I again used the index sheet from my photo order to decorate the cover of this album.




Parker's page is not in the album yet, as it is still drying.


Then I recycled some lids I have that were originally for fruit containers. My gramma ALWAYS has paper towel wrapped around the bottom of her cup to act as a coaster. The first photograph is of a completed coaster. I wanted to be sure it worked before I went ahead and made a ton of them.
I just cut a circle the size of the lid, put some glossy accents down, followed by the pattern paper of choice. Then I wiggled the paper around a little bit to ensure the glossy accents would get all over. Then, I covered the top of the pattern paper with glossy accents to seal the paper, and sprinkled some glitter to give it some pizazz!
Easy peasy!
