Explosion Box Album

Hello & welcome back!

When I received the gorgeous Roseate Pack pack in my DT kit, I was sure it would remain in my stash forever,my heart aches to cut papers I love!

I have made an explosion box mini album using this paper pack, the base of the album is Beirut Black card stock

Some elements from the collage sheet were fussy cut for embellishing the lid.

This is a tall box measuring  5x7", three of the 6 pages have pockets for additional inserts & tags.















 I have also fussy cut the floral motifs & used these are pockets on the inside of the box.

Accordion Tag Mini Album

Hello Friends!

Welcome back.....sharing my inspirational post for the Rinea blog this month.

I am amazed everytime I work with Rinea foiled paper be it die cutting, SVG files, stamping, 3D projects, bags, boxes, banners.......this unique foiled paper never fails.

Look at the magic created by combining the foiled paper with pattern paper in this mini album. 

Here is how I made this accordion pocket mini album.

Gather your supplies -  For this mini album, I am using Rinea foiled paper Jewel Variety Pack & Peacock Variety pack, pattern papers, chipboard, standard envelopes (10x4.5"), trimmer, scale, glue, tacky tape, embellishments.

Trim off the flaps of the envelopes to measure 6.25". I am using six envelopes. You can seal the trimmed flaps with double sided tape & make another smaller album.

Next trim the -

card stock - 4 1/4x6.5" - 6 pieces

Pattern paper - 4x6.25 - 6 pieces

Chipboard - 5x7.5" - 2 pieces, 1.5x5" - 2 pieces, 2x5" - 1 piece

Now we prepare the album covers. This is how we place the chipboard & make the cover with cardstock. 

Using red tacky tape to glue the cardstock to the chipboard

To make the accordion pockets glue the trimmed envelopes as shown here - 

Glue the first & the last envelopes to the insides of the album covers & the accordion pockets are ready. To make the tags, decorate with pattern paper & embellies as desired.

Here are images of the finished album - 

 have made a magnetic closure for this tag album.

Love the combination of the foiled paper with pattern paper, classy & elegant!

Shaker - Chipboard album

Good Morning!

I am at the ITSY BITSY blog with a fun chipboard shaker mini album. For details visit the blogpost here.

In my DT kit was a chipboard album the cover of which was a delicate moroccan laser cut pattern. 

I loved this & wanted to keep the cover simple & just highlight the pattern. Colored the cover with black acrylic paint & added a glitter glue , but this seemed to plain. To add some interest I made this into a shaker! Fun isn't it! 

 

The album comes with six chipboard sheets for the inner pages all bound together with ring binders.

I have edged all the pages with black paint & used the Maggie Holmes paper stack to decorate the pages. Heat embossed some inspiring words & sentiments from various stamp sets & used these to embellish the photo mats.
