NEW Video: Heidi Swapp's Boxed Card Mini Album

Can you use boxed cards to make a mini album???? Yes, you sure can! In today's blog post, I am sharing my NEW YouTube tutorial featuring Heidi Swapp's mini album booklet. I have made many types of albums over the years. When I saw her tutorial on Scrapbook.com and their YouTube channel I was hooked and excited to make it.

She used a boxed card set to make her beautiful album. I made mine the same way and also showed how you can make it with patterned paper, too. Using these precut and folded cards saved a lot of time and gave me more time to play with the best part, the embellishments! :)

Wasn't that easy? Ok, here are the pictures of the two albums I made. I love how they turned out.

Seeing all these wonderful pictures of our beach trips felt so good and I can't wait to go to this beach again.

Heidi Swapp's "Art Walk" collection of paper, washi tape and stickers are used throughout this book!






These mini albums make a wonderful gift and would be fun for the whole family to create. If you missed my other mini album tutorials, visit my YouTube channel Here. I love making these little treasures and I hope you are inspired to join the party!

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

Relaunch of Our Business

Kelly & Ron Roberts Today, Ron and I are announcing the relaunch of our K. Simone Designs business. For those of you that are new to our work and site, click   ABOUT US   for more information.   In short, we started our business selling my handmade greeting cards in 2011. We sold and donated lots of cards and enjoyed bringing smiles to our customer's faces. In 2019, we took a long break. Since then, art has become my main interest and I have been drawing, painting and improving my skills. Art has been a wonderful outlet and joy for me and I have loved encouraging others with these creations.  So now K. Simone Designs will focus on our Inspired Art business. Our greeting cards are on hold for now but they are still apart of our brand. Also, I will continue to create YouTube papercrafting videos and add more resources to my arts and crafts directory. Our goal with all these creative products is to inspire others with love, hope, joy and peace. Here are so...

My Birthday Blog Party

Welcome to my Birthday Blog Party! I am starting my celebration early to fully enjoy my day. My actual birthday is May 29th but why not start early right? :) When I think of birthdays past, they were always such exciting times for me. Many of my birthdays were celebrated with fun parties from my childhood to my young adult years. I loved all of those special parties and to this day, I still love it. Maybe this is where my love for event planning all started. At my 3rd birthday, my parents gave me a big one. I don't really remember but the pictures are so cool. I had lots of kids there, a clown, a little merry-go-round ride and lots of games. I had a white little outfit on and was looking so cute for a Spring party. Boy, I looked so happy! Also, I was brave not to be afraid of the clown, too. My mom was holding me as I blew the candles out. Another year, I had my first slumber party. That was so fun! I invited several friends and ...

Happy Hearts

Today I will be sharing one a several painting I recently finished. This one is one of my favorites. I wanted to try two faces and just love how they turned out. It was fun going crazy with the multi-colored background. The hearts were made using my new favorite thing to make from toilet paper rolls- STAMPS.  I saw them on Julie Balzer's blog. Toilet Paper Tube Stamps  Then I used my fingers to paint the inside of the hearts. So neat! Take a look and I hope you feel the love and joy in this piece. Aren't the afro's fabulous!!! LOL! They were my first try and look pretty darn good. The little girls afro puff is so cute and reminds me of the ones I had as a child.   I love the hearts on their clothes. I used my stencil to make the design then painted around just to show the insides. Hope you enjoyed and come back this week to see some other paintings. Have a good one!
