I probably would not have done this either, but 2 scrappy friends had the idea that we each make something for a mutual scrappy friend as a gift.
It took a fair amount of thinking"what to do"?, but this is how it ended up, @ 20 of my photos, printed and adhered to kraft, and on the back of each page a white card prettied up and with a printed quote.
I laminated the pages, and had this idea of finishing it off, with a beaded charm.I had a very particular idea of what I wanted,but a little trouble finding it.Until a visit to 'Beadz on Eyre' In Port Lincoln,where I selected the beads I wanted,showed the lady something similar to what I wanted, and after an hour or so she had it done, and for a very reasonable price too.I was really happy with it,so pretty.
Then I had a silly idea of making a box for it to go in.
Messy!!but done.
Overall I was pleased with how the album turned out.
And I think I just might be venturing back to 'Beadz on eyre' sometime soon.So many prettys!
