Field Notes- West Coast Mini Album

August 3, 2017 by audreykit 3 Comments

 

Hi there, Audrey here today to share a mini album (which I haven’t done in a LONG time!)

There is a piece of patterned paper in the August Kit, Malibu, from Pink Paislee that has polaroid like frames on it.  They just screamed to be cut out, and at first I was going to use them on a page, but I thought they’d be better put to use as a mini album!

 

For the inside pages, I layered four strips that were creased in the middle and then stitched on the crease to form a little book.

On the covers, I used two die cut frames from the ephemera/die cut pack and backed them with acetate. Then I added some sequins from the kit on the cover and covered over it with the frame. I did the same thing on the back.  The holographic alphas from the kit were perfect for part of my title!

 

For the inside pages, I simply added one photo to each frame and embellished it with bits from the exclusive printables, the die cuts, stickers, and chipboard.  I also used some washi tape from my stash to cover up any white areas.

 

After my layering was done, I stitched on each frame and glued them into the album.  The pages are simple, but the stitching adds a little interest and the colors just burst!

 

You can watch me make this album from start to finish here:

 

Thanks so much for watching!
