Sizzix Notepad Cover turned into mini album.

Hi again!

Today I've had a play with one of my new Bigz dies and a couple of thinlits as well. 
The die I want to showcase is this Notepad Cover by Brenda Walton. 
Originally it's meant to use to spruce up your ordinary post-it notes, but I decided 
I wanted to use it to make a small album. Papers etc are by Lemoncraft.

Here are some pictures I took along the way:

Cut out as many pages as you like for the inside of your mini album. A good size would to fit inside this cover would be ca 7 cm square.

I made small holes in all the pages for the binding and after pulling the thread through I added some glue to the knot to make sure it will hold.

I used the new Scalloped circles for my inside pages. I cut some of my photos with them and also made journalling spots. 

I added some Liquid pearl to the outside cover after inking the edges.

After finishing my little 'book' for the  inside I used  some double tape to add it to the 

back of the cover.

Here are a few more shots of the finished album:

I hope you enjoyed this post! :-) Thanks for looking! 

I used:

Sizzix Big Shot Machine Only (Powder Blue & Teal)

Sizzix Bigz L Die - Notepad Cover

Sizzix Framelits Die Set 7PK - Circles, Scallop

Another page with the Scraps of Elegance October kit.

The Bo Bunny papers in the kit belong to the 'Madeleine' collection and they are sooo pretty!

This page features a photo of my sister and me that we took on our holiday this Summer. 

We went to the Swedish island of Öland, which is kind of a Swedish summer paradise with

 the most hours of sun in the whole country. 

It was beautiful!

The wide lace from the kit is really pretty. For this project I wanted to dye it to make it a strong accent on my page. I used mist from my stash to do it.

Did you see the large roses I used here?  

They are very feminine and pretty and look so nice with the lace. 

As always Melinda put together a beautiful kit for us!!

I cut a couple of dainty butterflies using the Sizzix /Prima butterfly die Winged Beauties. 

 That's all for now. I hope you enjoyed my page!
