Ok so you know I said I had some exciting news to share. Well I've been asked to join the design team for 3 months. If I do well maybe it will be longer and I have no doubt that I will be able to create beautiful things with these goodies!
Here is the video where I show you what I got. Stay tuned for what I make!
Ok join me for a fun time. I will make a mini album from start to finish. Here a few things you will need to create your mini album. I'm not sure if there will be enough time to actually decorate the ablum so I'll just list the supplies needed to make the actual album. If there is enough time to mat the pages then that's a bonus.
Paper cutter
Score board, scoring tool
8 1/2 x 11 card stock I use recollections brand from Michael's
2 pieces 12 x 12 chipboard for covers and spine
tyvek or duck tape for the binding.
Kraftex for outside cover. If you don't have this don't worry you can use card stock
double sided tape like score tape or red line tape.
ATG or tombo type tape runner.
Patterned paper and embellishments.
Base pages
6x6 and 7x6 score on 7" sude at 1/2 and 6 1/2
Page flap

Here is my latest mini album I created. Normally my pages are all the same but in this album each page is different. Check out my video walk through.
Now... As I type this the video of me cutting the pages is uploading to You Tube but i wanted to give you the measurements of each page.
First you will need 6 sheets cut at 8 x 8 and 6 sheets cut at 9 x 8. These will create the base pages. You will score on the 9 inch side at 1/2 and 8 1/2
Page 1
8 x 7 scored on 7" side at 1/2
10 1/2 by 8 score on 10 1/2" side at 4 1/2 and 10

9 x 4- score on 9 " side at 1/2 and 8 1/2 and 4" side at 1/2
9 x 4 1/2 score on 9" side at 1/2 and 8 1/2 and 4 1/2" side at 1/2
2 pieces cut at 5x5 score both at 1/2" on one side

5x8 score on 5" side at 1/2
10 1/2 x 7 score on 10 1/2" side at 1/2 and 5 score on 7" side at 1/2 and 6 1/2*** When putting this together in the video I did this wrong so I recut pages to make my mistake right. So cut 6 x 6 1/2 sheet score on the 6 1/2 side at 1/2 and another piece cut at 7 x 4 1/2 score on the 7" side at 1/2 and 6 1/2 and on the 4 1/2 side at 1/2 to create a pocket
