Covered Photo Albums

I got this album at Joann Fabrics

for $4

I would wait until they have 40% coupons

I removed the photo pages from the back

Luckily they were actually apart 

when I bought them

Because 12x12 paper

isn't big enough to cover over the edges

I cut the piece in half

and cut the top edge at 7 1/2 in 

so the pieces were 7 1/2x 6in

I used uhs glue because it does 

give you some time to move the paper

I folded the paper over the edges

I cut the piece straight

so there wouldn't be any bulk

Cut the other piece at an angle like an envelope

Glue the piece over

I cut an additional piece to cover the part 

that the paper didn't cover on the binding

I cut 2 pieces of contrasting paper

I believe 6x6

The overlap in the binding portion

 doesn't matter if it matches up 

as you will be covering it up

I hot glued the photo pages back in

 applied a ribbon to the front

I topped it w a lace ribbon

I cut a piece I believe 3x 5 for the

 pocket and applied glue to the edges

Yes I did change my mind

 on the pocket paper

Good Eye!

Now the fun begins 

by adding embellishments

I applied silk flowers I had seperated from a bush

added glitter jewels

buttons in the corner

For the tag I  covered it with

the paper and printed the words

on vellum and added a ribbon

I got the inspiration for this at

I will share with you next week
