This week I chose to make a teeny-tiny Mini-album on a keychain as a gift for the Grandparents. When I say teeny-tiny I mean just that. My album measures 2"x2" which is about the length of your thumb! I used 2" square matteboards called Twinchies Squares from a company called Inchie Arts. The stamp set, which I colored with Copic markers, is JustRite Stampers: From Our House (2" Square). The stamps fit perfectly on each square and because of the texture of the mattboard, coloring with Copics creates bright crisp results. My photo-editing software on my computer allows me to size my pictures exactly the way I need them. I printed each picture 1.25" square and mounted them on black cardstock before adhering them to the Twinchie. I used my Crop-a-dile to punch a whole through each square and threaded them onto a keyring. Finish by embellishing with a large bow :)
The following Blog Hop participants all have fabulous ideas to make your gift giving a very personal and rewarding experience this Holiday Season:

Birthday Celebrations
I don't often post pics of myself because I am super shy when it comes to the camera - not in person though *lol*...but I promised some of the Spellbinders gals I would share a pic of the 'new' me on my b/day so here you go! The boots are a b/day pressie from Hubs (Laura took this shot of me yesterday in her new kitchen)
Cheers to another year of good health, good fortune and good friends!
Hugs
