Hello there! I'm Sister Diane and I have two grand passions: making crafts and making media. That's what I write about here, and sometimes, I get all thoughtful about internet culture and creative small businesses. Thanks for stopping by! Would you like some tea?

A Mother’s Day Craft

I wanted to share a new tutorial I have up on the CRAFT Blog this week. It’s a simple bound book made of envelopes – a lovely way to present a group of photos as a gift.

The envelopes create an opportunity to group the photos in some meaningful way. For my book, for example, I found that my pile of photos could be divided into four sets: Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter.

And each group then had images in it of my Mom’s children and grandchildren, at all different ages, doing various things that pertain to the season.

Looking at them in this context is like time-travel, in a way.

(Incidentally, the picture of me with the snowman up there? I’m busy sticking my Mother’s button collection into it. So, you can see why I needed to make her a nice gift.)

Go check out the tutorial!
