Hi Kirsten,

This 18 page Album cost $150.00 Canadian to make total and that includes the Album and a cover for it. It also includes all the eyelets and photo corners and brads. If you were making it for someone and charging it would cost $300. canadian as it took 9 hours with no stamping frm start to finish. I charge $15 canadian per hour if they use my CTMH papers and album etc. If they want other supplies I would charge 18 - 20 dollars per hour plus materials.

I am really glad you like it, most of the layouts are from our How to Programs at CTMH so it was nice and easy.

Thanks for leaving a comment. I have not written anything up on this yet so if you want more details it will have to wait. Sorry!

10 Card set

Hi

I have been very busy this week and not had much time to keep my posts up to date. I have just finished this set of 10 cards. I want to thank Nanci Hatchet for the pattern and some tips and assistance from Judy Gooderham. I hope I spelt there names properly.LOL. Forgive me girls if I have made a mistake. If you like them, I would appreciate if you can leave me a comment.

Thanks

Liz.

Hi Folks

In answer to your questions about my 18 Page Album.

1. I did use one Level 2 Paper Packet from Close to My Heart. I used Bella.

2. I tried to follow Robin Garrows pattern, but I got diverted, LOL. So I used some of those layouts and picked some I liked from our How To Programs Cherish and Imagine. Both Close To My Heart.

3. Modified some to fit my needs.

4. I reckon it will cost just under $150 Canadian for the materials used Including the Album, protectors and Cover. This is a rough estimate I need to sit down and do a proper costing before setting my price, but it will not much different from that.

5. To scrap it for someone it will cost $300. Canadian charging for Hours It took about 9 hours with no stamping. So I have allowed another hour to include stamping for Titles Etc.

I hope that helps. contact me directly for more information if you need it. My email is liz@frydavies.com.

Thanks again for the great comments. I really enjoy hearing from you all.
