HELLO!

Yes, it's me again!  I've decided to bring this blog back to life!  I'm still very much involved in rubberstamping and card making - here is my blog for that. 

Fifi's Daughter is my original blog which was started as a place to share various paper arts projects.  For now, I will only be posting once a week with the option of  random posts here and there.
 
Two friends and I recently started an altered book project together.  Each of us cut the front and back covers from an old book and created new book covers for our books.  Renee and I are going with a Paris/French theme for our books and Maureen's book will be all about Halloween. We have given our little group the name of "Mo Jo Nee" (as in nay).  Once a month we will meet and exchange pages we have made for each other.  We can also make pages for our own books as desired. This is to be a one year project - it will be so much fun to see the books at the end of that year!

Here is the cover I made for my book:



As you can see, the books will be held together with binder rings.  And, here is the first page I made for myself:



Here is the back of this page:



I will share the pages I made for the girls in my next post.

This week I joined a Yahoo group, Paper Traders.  I am excited to start participating in some of their swaps and challenges in the next few weeks.   Here is my first creation for their monthly ATC swap:

 

I love this sweet image from Paper Whimsy!

Thanks to anyone who stops by - Hope to visit some of my old friends, and new, soon. . . .
