Hello everyone! Today I have a file folder album to share with you, using the journal papers from the Watercolour Garden Collection. These papers have various beautiful prints, which you will see during this blog post. When I first viewed these papers I was going to create a planner or pages for a planner.....but then I came across these beautiful file folders and loved the concept more. There are several tutorials on Youtube at the moment but the one I liked the most is found here.
I really wanted to showcase the papers in this album, so the pages are very simple. I utilised the ephemera to create journalling spots. Left over manilla card was used to create tags and flips in the album.
I used my We 'R Memories Keepers envelope punch board to create tabs in the album, to define each section of the album.
Extra pockets enable spaces for mini books, tags and other photos.
Adding lace, ribbon and washi tape adds to shabby chic/vintage feel.
Enjoy the video below of the walkthrough of the completed album.
Hello everyone! I went on long service leave a few weeks ago and went overseas with a friend of mine. I traveled to places that I have always wanted to go to and feel blessed that I had the opportunity to do so. While on my trip, the break from everyday life, helped me recharge and find some creativity that I had lost this year. I decided to make a mini album for some of my photos and finally I can share this with you. I have a video walk through below that I can share with you as well.
It is the largest album that I have so far. I followed a tutorial by Shellie Geigle. You can see the tutorial by clicking here.
Here are some photos to get you started....
Here is a video walk through of the album. It is highly interactive and it can really only be captured on video.
