Wedding Mini Album

I was asked to make this mini album for my nieces friend who lives in Aussie but came back to Nz to get married as most of her family and friends are based in Nz.

I only took a photo of the front cover as there were over 20pages in this mini and most of the work is in the cover

Most of my time was spent on the photos - sorting through them, cropping some, enhancing others, creating focal points so I could then print of duplicates etc. A close second was after they were printed - making sure photo's were group together and finally culling them so you have a manageable amount to work with.

Supplies used:
Chipboard - Front cover
Pattern paper - covering the chipboard
Bazzill - on both the inside and inside back cover
Fabric rosettes - Easy to make (needle, thread, strip of fabric, card stock for the base and a hot glue gun)
Buttons - on the inside the rosettes layered to give it more depth
Acetate sheet - covering the photo, it was going to be an open and close flap but it didn't work out so I adhered it down and then hide the adhesive strip with ribbon.
Black pearl flourish - on the right handside of the photo
Black blink strips - around the photo and used for the bottom flourish
Ribbon and charms on the top ring to the album as an added embellishment
** I also used rubons, sandpaper, pinecone ink pad, white paper hinges, flowers covered in glimmer-mist and self adhesive pearl bling
