For the cover I did the following: I used white card stock and used newspaper and tore it into pieces and glued it on the card stock. When I was done I laid a post card under it before I copied the card stock. This is what I got. I liked it, so I used the copy as my cover, over some card board. This album is 41/4x51/4in.
The spine is 13/4in.
And the back view.
I once again used the clip as closure.
On the right I attached an acetate pocket. Inside is an envelope and a journal card.
Here you cans see the journal card.
I painted this envelope, used stamps and sewed it. I saw a tutorial at: Roben Marie Smith blog.
The inside.
And the back view.
Next I made a belly band. on the right is a side pocket. You can see the insert below.
This is a different kind of envelope. Instead of gluing the sides I just punched holes and tied them up.
Julie Woodward has a video tutorial on how to make these. I just put my own spin on it and made it a bit smaller.
On the inside you have a pocket.
This is the insert for the envelope.
This is the insert for the side pocket above. On the right I just sewed a few pages in the folder.
On this page I added a bag, and on top of it a vellum pocket. On the right I didn't want anything.
Sorry, this turned out kind of blurry.
On the next page I have a "floating" pocket. It's held into place by a magnet. The floating part has 2 pockets. The one behind it has one pocket.
This is what's behind the floating pocket.
Some tags I painted.
On the right is a flip out panel to reveal a vellum side pocket.
This is the tag I painted for the vellum pocket.
On the inside flip out panel I added a belly band and some die cut paper clips. I added a card with an attached envelope that can be opened.
On the left I liked the paper, so I didn't add anything to it. On the right I made a vellum belly band and added some washi tape over it. This is also a fold out page.
This is the die cut journal card I made.
This is the inside of the foldout page. On the left you have a tug spot.
I like to sew on old book pages.
Here another journal card I made.
I added a square tag to this belly band.
This is the booklet I painted, that's under the belly band.
On the left is a side pocket I painted.
On the right is a 3 pocket insert that flips open to reveal an envelope.
I adhered this envelope to the back page.
This album has 6 base pages. Thanks again to "jen of eve designs" for some great video tutorials.
As you can tell, this didn't have a theme again. But I just like to put my own spin on things.
These are quite fun to make, because you never know what you come up with.
