I thought I would share with you what I did today…and show you projects in progress.
I worked on some Christmas gifts today.
Photo Trays~
It was love at first sight for me these photo trays and me.
At first glance, I was swooning and weak in the knees.

When I saw them at the scrapbook store, I just had to take 2 of these bad boys home with me.
I find them positively dreamy!
{The emply slots are for photos~black & white photos of my kids.}
The first photo tray I built had a colour combo of red, green & black….
I found this glittery butterfly at Micheal’s…perfect for this project because I don’t want it to look Christmas-y.
The second tray I created today had a colour scheme of white, grey & yellowy-orange.
I had fun playing around with accents….buttons, flowers, chipboard…
None of the accents are glued down just yet…I am still tweaking.
You can find these photo trays at scrapbook stores.
They are made by 7 Gypsies and are around $25-$30~Canadian.
This is what I started with before I added paper and accents:
{There are 6-4″ x 6″ slots to play with.}
And the finished projects:
Share the Love!
Super cute! Do you then put glass on top? I can't wait to see your pictures.

Oh my, you are a busy girl!
Super cute, like Tracy says.
Have a great one!

Looks great! It does feel like we get a little more time to enjoy Christmas, doesn't it? My friend already has her tree up!!
So glad I found this site! Saw you were from Nova Scotia. My fathers family is from Barrington. Can't wait to follow your projects. Would love to share with some of my web site and blog readers!

Love this Angie! I'll have to come back and see what else you do with it and the pictures. I have one of these but it has 9 or 12 openings and I'm looking forward to doing mine, too. Good idea to set it all up before gluing it down first. I'll have to try that because I'm so afraid I'm going to mess it up. First time I'm doing one of these and I'm hoping to use pictures of my new little granddaughter!
Gorgeous-you really did a great job. Can't wait to see them with photos.
These are over the top fabulous! I am going to try to find some, fantastic!
Angie,
