 I was asked by my daughter Ashley the Mogul to make some books like mine for her friends and followers, I originally made my book because I had sooooo many pictures on my phone that I was running out of space, so I thought before I deleted them I will print them with my little #selfieprinter and make a little book to put them in I call it my little Bragg book, it took a little (who am I kidding A LOT) of pleading on Ashley’s part to finally get me to agree to make the books and I did they are on the way to her now.

Next she’s ask me to post some pictures of my books just so you all can get some kind of idea of how I put my whole thing together. (That child  got mommy mogul working)


This is one of my books I’m working on, the words were cut from my #Cameodiecuttingmachine (I love that thing) it cuts almost anything I can dream of….I am only limited by my imagination, 


All the images in this book are cut with the Cameo, all my pages are white so I add scrapbook paper before I put the pictures and cut outs, but I have to tell you the more you add to the pages the thicker the book will be, so keep that in mind. once I started printing out pictures I realized that I take pics of some crazy things (yep that’s my legs) the top page is just me playing with my machine cutting out different houses (for some reason I love houses)

Sometimes I add cut outs and sometimes I just add words, but you don’t have to have a machine to decorate your book you can go to any dollar tree or craft store, pick up a few stickers that appeal to you and use them. I’m gonna do that on book #3




Here is book #2. With this one I had some pictures laying around and wanted to put them somewhere I could look at when the mood strikes

This book holds pictures of my girls (in no special order) just as I find them I cut them down and get them in the book, I’m really loving this one, I didn’t do a cover yet I usually put a few photos in it thenI kinda know what to put on the cover.

Well…..There you have it Mommie Mogules little books, I hope you decide to purchase one and get those precious pictures out where you can see them and Bragg about them. 

I will now keep up this blog and continue to post pics of my little book.
