A Sweet Americana Paperbag Mini Album that I created
using some Fabby Americana Images from
Gecko Galz and my Silhouette SD!
I used GIMP to alter some of the images (just check the GIMP tab at the top of my blog for tutorials on how to use it).
I created this fun shaped Americana Ornie using two of the Gecko gal images...and a small "air mail stamp" which I got from the
Created these shaped pockets to hold some tags..photo mats and journal cards :-).
Here are two little bookmarks I created. The little girl and boy images are diecuts I created from Gecko Galz ephemera.
The patterned paper is from My Mind's eye.
This is a shaped Journal spot I created with the die cuts and pp..and on the flip side there is a spot for a photo...
Here is one with the little patriotic boy
The flip side...
Another photo of the inside...
The stamps I used are ones I carved myself.
I just love the vintage feel of this mini album! I did this..and then found the new Star Spangled Collection from Gecko Galz

The Patterned Paper was given to me by
Scraptales one of my Local Scrapbook stores, you can see this mini album there...and then it will go to a good friend of my
