Hi my project this week is a Display Album titled Somrthing Beautiful
Love this little display album. You can post it because it folds flat but you can set it up as a display album because it will sit open. Great for a gift. |
This is the album open. OK lets get started... |
From Olive American card stock I cut a back cover. |
I cut the front covers and use the Martha Stewart Score Board to score at 1 inch. This album is a gate fold. |
This is the Album Base. Scored at 2 inches, 4 inches, 8 inches and 10 inches. |
I cut at 1 1/2" from the top and bottom from the 2 inch line to the 10 inch line. On both pieces. |
Like this. |
I folded as so.... and put them together so they look like this. |
I cut American Craft pomegranete card for a mat for the front cover pieces. |
I cut Kaiser Lady Rose paper Helena to decorate the front cover. |
I cut 4 strips of the Kaiser Lady Rose paper Clara 7" by 1 1/4" to decorate. Great that this is a double sided paper because I flipped the alternate pieces. |
I trimmed my photos to fit. |
I inked all the edges of the pieces including the photos with Tim Holtz Distress Ink aged Mahogany using the ink applicator tool and foam attachment. |
I cut my photos to fit inside the front covers, then glued the covers to the album base. |
This shows my front covers before decorating. |
I have glued all the elements to the base of the album. |
I made this prima flower cluster from my stash for the front cover. The larger flowers are Prima Lyric |
Here is the front cover with seam binding fastening coloured with Tim Holtz Distress stains in aged mahogany and tattered rose. I have used Prima say it in Pearls |
Here is the album with all the embellishments added. I used Kaiser collectables words cut on my Cricut and Kaiser rub ons. |
Now its done. Thanks for joining me.
See you soon.....Wendy
