I have another super simple mini album for you today. I just love making these "deluxe" cards and filling them with my favorite stamps. This one features a lot of Character Constructions images - my all time favorites! I've also incorporated free vintage images, fun and easy!
Simply cut two sheets of double-sided scrapbook paper down to 8 1/2 X 11". Fold each sheet in half and in half again. The two folded sheets will nestle in one another. Alternate folding "flaps" down every other page to make the pockets, then secure the remaining openings closed with Score tape. I hope this makes sense. Let me know if you have any questions. To bind the books together, just punch two holes and then run some ribbon through and tie in a bow.
Honestly, I don't own all these stamps! I like making these kinds of books with my stamping friends so we can share stamps. We pick a theme and bring all we have! Kudos to my friend Barbara, who is the QUEEN BEE of cool stamps!!! Love ya, miss ya, come home soon!
That sleigh silhouette has to be one of my favorite stamps ever made... This entire booklet is filled with tags, what could be more fun!
Thanks for looking! I'm joining the fun this week with Simon Says Stamp for their Christmas challenge HERE, and with Addicted to Stamps for their Anything Goes challenge HERE.
Gorgeous project! Love the sweet vintage images and all the snowflakes!

ReplyDeleteSo glad to have finally noticed your blog Autumn. Several times when you commented on my blog, I tried to track you back but Google+ didnt seem to show your own blog (Im not on Google+). Anyway, I can now see your own fabulous creations. Just love your album, fantastically tactile and lots of gorgeous little details to explore. Beautifully done. You're lucky to be able to share your friends' stamps - wonderful images there. Enjoy the rest of the weekend. Nicola x

Exquisite!
ReplyDeleteThis is a gift in itself. The beautiful colours which positively shimmer and I can just imagine the way the lights from a Christmas tree will dance against those colours and the most wonderful combination of the various stamps and vintage images. This just takes my breath away.
