Over to you Afrreen,
Hello Everyone,
This
is my first GD post for Rainbow Craftykari and thank you Maninder for
this opportunity. Today am going to share a pictorial tutorial of making
Mini Album.
Lets begin,
Step1: For album base we need chipboard (gsm as per your wish). Need
5 piece of various size chipboard size as follows (11x6.5cm ,11x3.5cm, 11x8cm,
11x3cm, 11x5cm), then 2 different
pattern sheets for covering the chipboard outer and inner part (size of pattern
sheet 26 ¾ x
11¼
cm and 30 x 14cm).
For inner pages need 4 piece of black
cardstock 16.5x8cm score them at
(8|0.5|8) here I used Penguins in love pattern sheet from Papericious.
Step 2: Adhere the chipboards to the pattern sheets for outer cover,
trim the corners now you can see the excess of pattern sheets outside the
chipboards, just fold them and stick it inside the chipboard I used red tacky
tape for sticking them , you can also use white glue, now stick the inner part
with another sheet of pattern paper and trim it off the excess ones outside the
chipboard, and I have put magnetic clips on both the sides.
Step 3: For hanging charms, I used eyelet on top of the 11x3.5 size
and chained them using jump rings, hanged charms in the chain using jump rings.
Step 4: Adhere pattern sheets as per your wish for inside pages now
stick inner pages one after other, note a point while sticking adhere them
opposite direction( if one page folded side is at the left then stick 2nd
page, & folded side should be on right)
Step 5: for inner
page decorating I just created a pocket and tags and I have fussy cut penguin from
the pattern sheet and adhered them to the inner page, I used just for you
embossed sentiment, so as I created pockets and put some tags and die cuts for
other pages, adhered ribbon in center of the page & added die cuts to it.
Step 6: Used stitched oval die cut and frame, adhered at the
center of the page and I used corner die cuts, flower and leaf to decorate
it.
Step7: Now adhere the accordion type folded pages to the center
base (11x8).
Step8: I used fussy cut love you from Papericious pack and adhered
it, for decoration I arranged flowers, leaves (flowers and leafs are made out
of dies) added glitters in leaves and flowers.
Step9: Added few dew drops for leaves and flowers using glossy
accents.
For adding glitters
just sprinkle glitters over the flowers and leaves, if you are satisfied with
the amount of glitters sprinkled just take a pic of it, now shutter all the
glitters down, for adhering glitters for
1 part of glue 1 part of water mix them well, it will become thinner, wet your
brush and dip it in the mixture ,now just carefully splatter the mixture using
brush (refer the pic taken by you ).
If you feel you want
light sparkles then give slight coat, and now sparkle the glitters over it and
shake the excess, if u feel anywhere excess amount of glitters adhered don’t
worry use napkin and spread the excess.
And your project is ready. If any doubt, feel free to ask and leave your comments here.
