A few notes today:

[ love these albums ]

I remember when I first saw the leather albums from We R Memory Keepers. Do I dare say – I felt JOY!? I did. I was in love with the colors, the quality, and the fact that finally there was a beautiful 3-ring leather album that was acid-free and totally safe! AND … it has the cute label on the spine. When I saw them again at MemoryTrends in Las Vegas last month, I was reminded of their ultimate yum factor and I finally got all my 12″ x 12″ albums converted.

I happened to be with C.D. Muckowsky (Scrapbooker of the Year for CK last year) and her husband when I walked into the We R booth. As we stood there drooling over the colors, I started to feel like my years of believing that black albums were best because of their classic nature, were over. It was time to go with more personality and oomph. And C.D. gave me just the right nudge that I needed to go for it. So now … all of our family albums are red. Porter’s are green. Claire’s are yellow. And they have many more delicious colors to choose from.

Check your local scrapbook store or you can buy them online here or here. A lot of colors seem to be out of stock right now, but they’ll be up when they become available again. Check out their linen albums too. Equally gorgeous. I like leather because they’re so easy to keep clean.

Okay, enough about that. I just love sharing things that I love. And albums are very, very important to me. There are a million great albums out there, but these are the winner for my 12″ x 12″ family books.

[ christmas card kotm ]

So holy cow – the kit is on sale in just two days. My Christmas card Kit of the Month goes on sale THURSDAY. In the meantime … speaking of my cute friend C.D., she is posting a card a day on her blog. She’s giving a personal & creative twist to my cards and it’s so fun to see what she’s coming up with. If you know C.D.’s style, you know how free-spirited & wonderfully creative she is. Check out what she’s doing.
