Technique:
(1)Cover the 6 x 6 chipboard with pattern papers using Perfect Paper Adhesive or Matte Gel. I printed the Old Papier Digital images using Microsoft Word. A few of the pages I printed in 6 x 6 and other pages were scaled down to about 4 x 4 inches.
(2)Using an eyelet setter, punch three hole on each chipboard page. The ribbon to tie the album together will be strung here.
(3)Assemble collage items on the backgrounds. I used a menagerie of tags, atc’s, butterflies, and Beautiful faces CDV’s.
Cut Old Papiers into strips to form pockets and adhere to bottoms of pages. Tuck images and tags inside. Run ribbon at a diagonal adhere with E6000 glue and mini fasteners on random pages.
(4) Decorate art parts with paint or pattern paper and adhere over CDV face images. Or use as a base and attach butterflies to centers. Glue charms, buttons and various embellishments on pages.
(5) Run ribbon through side holes of pages to create the binding. You could also add charms to dangle down.
Variations:
Create this album using the old papiers and add baby photos.
Create a theme album using Halloween, Christmas, or Love as your inspiration.
Dear Nancy, I`m´alwayes jumping to look, when a new P.W. post is shown on my bloglist, because I`m sure there will be something beautiful from your hands, and this album is surely wonderful, with all the lovely images, and the way you mixed them with great papers, ribbons, and charms.
