Gorgeous! I find that the albums I make for those that I care the most about take the longest and they are the fatest-LOL. Such detail although you didn't get in to every detail I know and I saw the work. Great job and thank you for sharing your master piece :o)
@Create2Remember I get asked that question a lot, and my answer is always, "I have no idea". I work full-time, and scrapbook only when I have a little extra time. I do it for the fun of it, so don't pay attention to the clock. I can tell you that I was working on this project for several weeks, but just have no idea of how many hours I put into it.
I really did love this.....especially the the tab ends on some of your photo matts...how did you do those?..cool effect. One problem tho, I have this paper and love the colors of green, but your's shows up more orange...??? Anyway, thanks for showing and I know your friend was thrilled, will mean a lot to her.
@49Nutmeg For the tabs, I just used my Spellbinders "creative page tabs" die to cut them out of foil sheet (also from Spellbinders). There is a lot of green in this paper line also, but my friends favourite colour is orange, so I just used the green as an accent colour. I did watch the video again, and I think part of the reason it looks so orange is because of the camera and lighting.
So incredibly impressed with your talent. I will be watching this video over and over and attempting to create an album for my oldest daughter. She would love it as I am sure your friend loved the time and thought you put in putting this together for her. Just beautiful!!
OMG....I'm totally in LOVE...that mini is awesome and your friend is gonna love it!!! I have been hoarding my steam punk papers for a long time now....I may need to break them out now...lol...thanks so much for sharing your amazing mini!!!!
This is absolutely gorgeous!! I love how you incorporated the acrylic pieces into it; I've always been afraid to try it, but I think this is a great way to play with it without having to do an entirely acrylic album. Your handmade flowers are beautiful! Love this mini! TFS :)
This album is incredible! Your unique pages and detail show the love and admiration you have for your friend. I always say I could never put a price on what I make because you can't put a price on friendship. I am sure Jody will be brought to tears with this one of a kind gift. What a gift you have and thank you for sharing it with us.
People do not have an idea the labor and the money this costs. These albums are unsellable in a craft fair. They have to cost at least up to $100 dollars (for material, detailing, labor, creativity, etc) Oh may gosh, I really think this one is the prettiest album ever, Period!!!!
Stunning!!! Such incredible detail. It's obvious the love and care you took into every page & detail for this gift for your friend. She will LOOOVE it I'm sure. TFS with us. I don't know if you ever have but if you could do a tutorial on your techniques it would be super! Thx & Merry Christmas! :D
@ButterBeeScraps I don't know if it's the paper you used of if you distressed/sprayed/ treated the paper in some way to create the effect it seems to have on camera (shimmery/glossy look on several of the pages). Also how you make your beautiful flowers would be great. btw what are the dimensions for your album covers & pages. Thx so much for asking Lori. Be blessed
@musictoliveby08 All of the green and orange picture mats were made using a metallic paper. There were only a couple of pages that I used Lindy's Stamp Gang (LSG) sprays on. The LSG products are fantastic! My flowers are just lollipop flowers made using organza fabric, but I cut the fabric using the Tim Holtz tattered florals die rather than using circles. I used the Michael's 4-5/8" x 2-7/8" x 8-5/8" bags for the pages of the album, and I made the covers 5-1/2" x 7". Cheers!
@ssjenns Thank you so much! This is just a standard paper bag album - I used medium weight chipboard for the covers, and just adhered a piece of black leather to the front and back covers to hide the spine. Before I attached the leather, I just added some stitching and eyelets for the fibers.
now this is what I call a very detailed and well thought out mini.. I love the double slider & even around the first or second page.. I love the threading through on the side of one of the pages/tags through the eyelets. I can't recall at this moment at the end of the video but remember seeing it in the beginning and the feathers too , great idea! She will LOVE this! tfs!
Gorgeous warm and rich cover. Cutting paper takes courage! Your friend will fall in love with it. Impressed with your handmade flowers. Thanks for sharing.
Oh good gravy mavy, where to start...I just love this album. You always inspire me, but this one tops the charts, it is incredible. Every detail, embellishment, chain, charm, pocket and tag, all just brilliant. I can't waiit to scraplift some of your wonderful ideas, I have the papers and haven't been inspired yet to use them, but you certainly jumpstarted my "mojo" with this. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Did I mention I love this mini?
OMGOODNESS!!!!!!!.....this album is STUNNING....your friend is a lucky lady to be receiving something so incredible......I love how you used the steampunk theme on all your pages....just beautiful.......thank you so much for sharing it with us.........hugs Debbie:-)
Hi, this is a fantastic album, as is all your ideas, I think my New Years Resolution is to do more embellishments that is an area I have problems with and you do give me ideas, thanks.
