Memory Mini Album - FabScraps - Wild and Free

Hello Everyone

I hope that you had a good weekend and got some time to relax and craft a little.

I crafted up a storm and was happy to get projects completed and posted to the various teams.

Today, I am sharing a mini album that I made back in December for FabScraps, using the awesome Wild and Free collection. It is also up here on the FabScraps blog.

If you would like to see more details, please pop over to the FabScraps blog.

Here is another little teaser..

These papers are just gorgeous and after making 2 mini albums, I literally do not have any papers left.

I will share the other album with you tomorrow.
