Two Peas in a Bucket Big Sale!

Here’s a gorgeous Halloween album created by one of the scrapbook divas, Iris Babao Uy:

This is what Iris has to say about the album:

I have never really been excited about halloween… until I had a daughter of my own. Now I can’t wait for trick or treat! I had so much fun last year with Nicole and she is looking forward to this year’s celebration. The holidays will be busy so I thought of making a Halloween album in advance so that I just need to print the pictures and adhere it. “My Little Yellow Bicycle” sent me a complete line of their Frightful Collection, and I made this little book from their wonderful products. I’ll post the entire album, when I have the pictures in it already. Thanks MYLYB!”

Tips for the Busy Scrapper: Mini Books

This is the Piggy Tales Drawbridge Book, a 6×6 white boardbook with four flaps that fold out to reveal hidden photos and/or journaling, with extra space built into the spine, so you can include dimensional extras and still close the album when you’re done — see, very cool!

The inside cover reads:
Dedicated to the man you are and the boy you were, through the eyes of your sons.

The front of each fold-out features a photo of Geof with one of our boys (Clark, Chase, Trey and Taft) and the inside highlights their responses to these questions:

1. How are you like Dad?
2. What do you want to know about Dad, when he was your age — what would you ask him, if you could?
3. What has Dad taught you that you are grateful for?

Piggy Tales Drawbridge Book Sneak Peek

Have you seen the gorgeous KI Memories Idea Planner for 2008? If you’re a serious mad cropper then you’d definitely want this. Unfortunately, according to one of our readers, the planner is not yet available. It seems weird that it’s not available when we’re already half-way through February.

I hope it becomes available soon.

Another photo of the inside of the planner after the jump

It is filled to the brim with over 150 ideas including layouts, projects, cards, photography tips, and organizational tips from the KI Design Team as well as the Color Theory Contest Finalists! There are two sheets of adorable icon stickers to use throughout your planner to keep you organized and looking cute at the same time! Each month has a patterned divider with a tab. There is plenty of room in the planner to keep you and your family organized as well as your memories preserved. Use it as a journal and a place to stash scrapbook ideas for when you have time to sit down and scrap. It is a sturdy felt 3-ring binder. There are pockets on the inside of each cover. The front window is fully customizable, fill it with a photo or some pretty KI paper and an embellishment. This is a must have item!

The 2008 KI Idea Planner

I know that I told you that I didn’t have a good experience when I ordered Lisa Bearnson’s December KOTM but I thought this album is way too gorgeous not to share. However, not sure if I’d buy the kit for this. You can create your own love story scrapbook album by using a scrapbook paper line that you like and just go and do it!
