Ink Stamp Share Special Blog Hop: Anything Goes

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator

Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it. Today I am taking part in the Ink. Stamp. Share blog hop and the theme is Anything Goes! If you have joined me from Jo then welcome, I am Gez (Nigezza) and I am a UK Stampin' Up! demonstrator and I am thrilled you have come for a visit. Today I have made a mini album for you using the lovely DSP Woven Threads. I got this paper free during Sale-A-Bration and it was my intention to make a mini album or a journal with it. I did a journal not so long ago so decided to make a mini album with it. I am really happy with how it turned out. Very straight forward to make so why not give it ago after you have hopped around the blog hop of course. .

Nigezza Creates with Stampin' Up! to make a Mini Album with Woven Threads DSP

Measurements and Materials

Each page is 10" x 7"

Score on long side @ 5"

Pockets are made from the 2"x7" cut off from the sheet of ``DSP

Can make pocked from the 5" x 12" cut off if you prefer
In the original album I made pockets 2 1/2" x 5"
I alternated the pockets so had 2 like this and 2 that were 2" x 7"
3 hidden pockets were made by putting glue on 3 sides of each sheet when adhering together

Photo Mats

For each page I made large mats 6 1/4" x 4 1/4"
This would allow them to have full size 6"x4" photos
The 3 that were in the hidden page pockets were each 1/4 of a full sheet
I used the Circle Tab punch to make pulls for these photo mats

Decorating the pocket edge and photo mats

I used the Decorative Ribbon Punch for this, using Whisper White for the pockets and Rocco Rose for the mats

Mini Album Cover in Whisper White 7 1/4" x 10 3/4"

Score on long side @ 5 1/4" & 5 1/2"

Front cover was decorated

Seaside Spray Mat 5" x 7"
DSP Mat 4 3/4" x 6 3/4"
Sentiment stamp on Whisper White and die cut with stitched rectangle
Ornate layer die cut from Seaside Spray

Back cover was just 5"x7" DSP
Crinkle Seam binding used to fasten the album

Stick under the back DSP mat and have it loose in the front so a nice bow can be tied

Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)
