Prima Marketing Havana Flip Album


 This is a mini album I made using Prima Marketing Havana papers and chipboard, and a Teresa Collins Flip album in white. Some Bazzill cardstock papers were also used. Here is my front cover which includes fussy cutting pieces and a Melissa Frances keyhole along with more Prima Marketing products of flowers.



This page is actually a pocket and you can see the pink piece of paper peeking out of the fold. Great to add more photos and memorabilia. 
                                        Here I made an easy pocket page with tag and envelop tag.

                              
                                Several pages of pockets to add more photos and memorabilia. The bottom of the page is a ticket that was fussy cut from one of the papers and folded over to make a homemade tab for the page. I used these tickets throughout the album and really enjoyed using these rose gold foiled papers and pieces!! So gorgeous in person and the colors are a soft pastel coloring. Made working on this project fun and inspiring!



Am hoping to add travel photos to it when things open up so as to take a trip! Hope you enjoy the pages and it inspires you to make one despite not getting to go anywhere right now.

Authetique Frontier Album Gift




"Together we have it all"






   Am an avid Authentique Papers fan and loved these papers when I saw them, called Frontier. I immediately thought of my beloved Mother in Law who grew up in Crowell, Texas on a cotton farm where they grew all types of vegetables as well. Her and her TWIN sister are 93 years old and am so excited to make this for them! I thought that they would enjoy adding their childhood photo as well as pics from over the years. She was so excited when I gave it to her at Thanksgiving for her early Christmas present!!! I had packaged it for her as a surprise inside a beautiful mirrored jewelry box.
The photo on the front is when we traveled to see her in May and had taken the two out to Olive Garden. Don't you love how that rock wall behind them fit perfectly with the rustic theme? You can even see my blonde hair on the left in the pic. LOL!! Also, these ladies are so healthy that they spend time flying back and forth to each other's homes in different states. Thanksgiving and Christmas is the only times that they aren't together as to spend it with their families. Isn't that sweet???

Other supplies:
Buttons, May Arts Twine, Vintage Seam binding in two colors, White Burlap, Ranger Walnut Distress Ink, Red ink, Black paint, Prima Marketing flowers, Petaloo burlap flower stem with pearls, Fineline glue bottle, Basic Grey bookplate, Fiskars corner punch, hot glue gun, 12" trimmer and scissors.
