Unique Birthday Cards

My parents birthdays are one day apart, September 12th and 13th.
This year I made each of them a displayable memory book as a birthday card.
I got the idea from a kit I saw online, but wanted to make mine from
scratch. I found simple instructions here. I was thrilled with
the outcome and so where my parents.
As always my embellishments are thrifty. I make many from
polymer clay and molds I have created. I also use ephemera I have found online.

HEATHER'S MINI ALBUM

Another mini album made with envelopes. Tutorial on YouTube here. The blue flower embellishment was made with Makin's Clay Floral Mold with polymer clay. The blue butterfly and green heart were made using molds I made with Amazing Mold Putty and charms I had on hand. I used translucent clay, then paint and varnish.

Heather is like a second daughter. She reminds me much of myself at her age. She is so expressive and creative. She does beautiful "Spoken Word" which you can see here (WARNING: PG13 for language). She's also an excellent photographer. She and my daughter start this fall at Ringling College of Art and Design.
