We had our last AYM meeting of 2025 at Susan's on Thursday. She had a blazing fire burning as it was freezing cold and raining. We all loved that. She served us wine and champagne along with some tasty bites. We got Pete to snap a picture or 5!
Nancy brought a few layouts as she was a bit behind.
This might look familiar as I already showed the left side page. Susan's layout had somehow gotten separated and she only had that page when we had our last meeting.
We discussed our theme for next year and I showed what our title page is going to be:
I might have mentioned that I am taking Ali Edwards December Daily class. I was excited to put some of the techniques to use before I forgot them!
For the title page, I cut all of these tiny houses on my Cricut. When I took them off of the mat, most of the windows and doors fell out. So, the girls will have a teeny tiny puzzle to put together for their page.
I loved this weaving technique which I decided to use on the end page of our 2026 album.
I pre-cut everything. With all of the classes I've taught for over 25 years now--I've learned to leave nothing to chance. Regardless if I'm standing right there guiding people through the process AND with complete written directions, someone will screw something up. It matters when you have exactly the number of papers you need. One miss-cut dooms the whole project!
So, I've cut ALL the strips and made the frames for the weaving. There should be no mistakes!
