One Page Folded Mini Album

I made this mini album for my son.
It's small enough to carry it with him wherever he goes.

The inner pages are 3x3 inches (7.5x7.5 cms).
There's enough space inside to write some text (not shown in the photos… it's private), to stamp or to decorate with any flat embellishments.

Ingredients:
One 12x12 inches (30x30 cms) canvas textured CS
Recycled Cereals box, cut to make the covers
Patterned paper from my stash
TH clear stamps
Distress ink
Gel pen (to write on the inner pages)
Green satin ribbon

It's fun and easy to make, and I think the photos show it all.
I'm sure I'll be making more of these… maybe for RAKs.
Would you like to receive one?

Transparent Mini Album - Flowers And Butterflies

This mini album was created out of a big transparent page (12x12) cut into 4 smaller pieces.
I've easily cut it with a knife, with scissors and with Sizzix dies.
Because it is transparent, I had to pay attention to what's showing on the other side of each page. I think it's challenging, don't you?
Yet I could use so many techniques, inks and 3D items, and that turned it into a fun project to play with.
It is very colorful and cheerful, and there's still some room left to add photos.
It came out rather chubby because of all the embellishments I put in - and I like it this way.
I hope the photos show its transparency and the way each page seems from both sides, through the layers.

There are quite a few of them, so sit back and enjoy…
