First mini album

[123SA]

I made this album for my neice (16) to give to her new-ish boyfriend for Valentine's Day - -took maybe two hours. She planned to write in the spaces like a coupon book. I used Fabulous Finds for the album cover and pages. The cover is the back chipboard weight piece from a DCWV stack. I used the multi cut feature and it cut out just fine. I had all of the supplies in my stash.

Very cute! Fun idea. How did you fasten it together?
I also love the dice rolling in the background!

That's a really cute book! What a great idea.

I also like the play-by-play dice rolling going on in the background!!!

I had to go back and look. I didn't see any dice background paper. Then I saw what you were talking about.

That is very cute Susan. Love it.

You could do the same size and theme if for school for an end of the school autograph book.

Too funnny --- I didn't notice it either!

School album - -that is a really good idea!

It is held together by brads.

Very cute!

How did you glue the paper to the cover/pages? I made altered notebooks and I used the spray adh and it is lifting. TIA

I used my ATG for everything. Only the cover, front and back, is chipboard. The rest is just paper taped together. I used the flip feature on the cricut expression to make the font and back pages.

I don't have the book anymore, so I don't know how it is holding up. I'll have to check with my neice.

Thanks for the compliments

They are from the Storybook cricut cartridge -- marquee1 is the image name. The horizontal boxes were cut at 4 1/2 inches and the vertical ones at 3 1/2 inches.
