This week, we created a mini album with this month's featured die, Bag w/Scallops. Unlike last week's vase, this project uses only the large scallop piece from the die and not the side pieces. Here is the list of supplies used for our project.
- Card Stock - Bermuda Bay, Whisper White
- DSP - Pumpkin Pie
- Ink - Bermuda Bay (for sponging)
- Punches - Scallop Trim Border, Extra Large Fancy Flower, Boho Blossoms
- Embellishments - 1/2" Pumpkin Pie Striped ribbon, Pumpkin Pie button (from the Sherbet collection), two jumbo eyelets, hemp twine, a magnet, a decorative brad, and a glue dot
The album is made by adding an additional score line in between the two existing score lines. The actual measurement is 4-5/8". We have included four pages in our album but you can add more. The measurements for the inside pages are 4-1/2" x 2-1/8" and then score these pages at 3/4". The entire album is held together, on the left side, with two jumbo eyelets and the striped ribbon.
The "scrunched" flower is made using both the Extra Large Fancy Flower punch and the Boho Blossoms punch - three of each. The decorative brad is made with Pumpkin Pie DSP and a non-SU brad maker.
As you can see from the above photo, magnets are used for the album closure. You are now ready to add your pictures, words of advice, words of wisdom or even a few of your favorite recipes.
This is adorable and a clever use for the die. My favorite idea of yours yet! And you've had some brilliant ones! Keep 'em coming and thanks for sharing!
