Last month I bought a Heidi Swapp/We R Memory Keepers "The Cinch" and used it to bind this spooky little Halloween mini album with elements and paper by Tim Holtz. Always wanted to make something creepy and gothic looking! Eeeeeek!
Well, I've thrown together my first mini-album/junk journal. I am going to fill it later with photos and journaling, but I wanted to get the base pages done. I've been hanging on to this BasicGrey paper forever {Picadilly, Kissing Booth, Romani, Gypsy and True Love} I kinda love this format and might do this for a while instead of the traditional 12x12! On to my next project, not sure yet but I'm pretty sure it will be another mini-album! Lovinnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggg!!!! Stay tuned...
Recently, I was gifted some really great papers by Paper House Productions and embellishments by Fancy Pants Designs and Carta Bella chipboard elements by a family member who asked me to put together some albums for their extended family members. This is just a simple album that I threw together over the weekend but I'm happy with the way it turned out. I used some thick cardboard from an old three ring binder for the covers and used some faux suede for the spine.
Word albums make wonderful gifts and are really fun to make. I have a stash of chipboard and use an older Cricut that cuts 6x12 templates. Below are a couple examples that I've made over the years.
