Fall is in the air!

Can you believe tomorrow is the official start of Autumn! This time of year is sort of bittersweet for me...I hate to see sunny summer days go, but I love wearing sweaters and jeans and being a little less busy.
Luckily our weather has warmed back up a little, because last week I could have sworn fall was already in full swing! I've even started seeing combines out already. They say it will be an early harvest with the weather conditions we've had this year.
I thought I would share a layout I did about Fall In Iowa and what it represents to me.
What does Fall represent to you? Do you love or hate this time of year? I'd love to hear your responses :)

New Albums in the Works!

I am getting ready to add a new style of Custom Album to my shop. They are Custom Team/Mascot Albums. I have one finished, but would like to get more done before I add them to my store. I thought I would let you all in on what the first one looks like. My hometown's mascot is the Trojans, so I started with it: You will be able to use your school name or mascot for the album and choose what activities you would like included. That way if the recipient isn't in baseball...it won't be in there! I love custom albums because they are so personal and these are perfect gifts for athletes, grads, coaches, teachers, fans, or anyone else involved in school. These aren't just for high school either. Want a college team? A pro team? That's the great thing about CUSTOM!!! You get exactly what you want :)

Family Word Albums-In Process

I've been working really hard on word albums lately. I'm preparing for my craft shows coming up in October and November and these are always hot items! (Posts coming soon on upcoming craft shows!)
I thought I would show you some that I have in process right now. I plan to make around 20 that say FAMILY in all different colors. (I better get busy!) These just need embellished and they're ready to go :)
