New Tags

Hello,
I just made a few tags from "docrafts papermania Art Deco" papers. I have had the papers for a long time without knowing what to do with them. However, now I have started a series of tags and they are very fun to make.





Thank you for looking!

Mini-album

I don't know what I would do without the Internet. When I am out of ideas I just have to look around and something will turn up.
This beautiful mini-album is almost a copy of an idea from the Internet using the paper line "Bohemian Bazar" 8x8 inch from G45.
The album is closed with a large magnet which holds very well.


The first two pages are held in blue. Each page has a pocket with a tag. These pockets are also closed with magnets, but the small ones. No magnet is visible as I put them behind the papers.



Next two pages are opened with two flaps - also closed with small magnets.



Here is a small pocket with a beautiful tag.


These two pages are also pockets with large tags.


The last pages. The right one with a tag.


Not a big project - but very fun to make.

Mini Album / Birthday Book

I made an album from Graphic45 papers "Place in Time" 12x12. Obviously, these papers make a kind of yearbook, and I imagine that the book can be used for writing down birthdays and which presents have been given.

The cover is made from 2 mm cardboard and the size is approx. 8 x 9,5 inches. I have decorated both the front and the back cover with images from the paper line.






For every month there is a tag on which to write the names of persons with birthdays.


Every page is made as a pocket in which there is a large tag which for inst. can be used for writing presents. Good to remember what you gave last year.

The tag is of course made in a matching color.





























 Inside the back cover I have places some numbers - just for fun - and on the outside of the back are some images from the paper line.

Midi Album

Last Friday I attented a course at Riddersholm Design. The teacher had made a  beautiful mini-midi-maxi album from Riddersholm's very elegant papers: Fall Flea Market. We were 10 people attending and it was a very nice and worthwhile experience. My copy of the album has been changed a bit in comparison with the exercise, however, not much.


For the front page I cut out an image from one of Riddersholm's papers. I backed the lady with dark paper so that she would stand out. From a 6x6 paper stack I cut out the same lady and glued her on the back of the album, also with a dark background.


The album is folded with three main pages and on the front of the first page there is a pocked with some pages for photos. I have closed the pockets with magnets.

When this page is opened (on the inside) there is a album with three pages also for photos. I have decorated the beautiful paper with a lace.

First page of the opened album.

On the middle part of the album there is another pocket like the one in front of page one. Also closed with magnets.


Here the pocket is opened. Room for many photos.

On the last of the three pages there are two smaller pockets made after the same principle as the bog ones. 

There is room for a tag with a photo in each pocket. 

These small pockets are also closed with magnets.
