enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

Pretty slow Monday. I need something to do. Like a major dental surgery. Or something.
But I realized I never shared the album I made for my 6×12 layouts. So TA-DA:

6x12You know those 12×12 cork board squares? I cut one in half and punched some holes in it. Then, when the holes ripped through the cork edge, I added some tape.
Boards

Pretty simple and looks pretty cool.

Edited to add: There are no page protectors. I punch holes right into the layouts. It is okay.

    I am loving your blog! I followed your link from SIS and I am intrigued now. I want to know what’s going on with your teeth and I seriously want to know about your trip to Europe so I am planning on sitting down, going right back to the start and finding out! Loving your style and the 6×12 album rocks 😀

    Hi there! I’ve been stalking your blog for a while now. I think I actually stalked your card art one first. Awesome stuff. I love your 6×12 album! might have to try that. 🙂
    P.S…Are you from Sacramento?! I saw your Raley’s grocery bag the other day. 🙂 I used to live up there but now I live in Tracy.
