A Valentine's Mini Album

Hi everyone! I'm very happy to be here today and to continue to share with you the creations with the wonderful collections of Crate Paper. It's almost Valentine's Day! For the occasion I chose to make a mini album that you can either give your lover, friends or keep for yourself!

I chose to make the cover of this album with pretty tracing paper with golden hearts I superimposed on smooth white cardstock. Inside I alternated patterned papers and white cardstock and I joined all using the sewing machine to give the effect of a book.

Then I just add a sticker for my title because I like when it's very clean... To keep it closed, I used a pink and white twine to match the colors inside.

I decorated my page with the HELLO LOVE collection and the first page was carried out with MY VALENTINE paper. On the left I added large wooden hearts.

Here I cut the heart in one of the papers and I made a sewing frame (detail following photo). We find the XO shaped balloons in the large 12x12 board chipboard.

A preview of the sewing,

I'm a fan of the puffy stickers—the FEEL THE LOVE is adorable. I love the effect on the white background of this page. To highlight the photo on the paper hearts I slipped a paper doily and I added 3 little words labels.

The paper with all these inscriptions about love is very pretty. I chose to leave it as is to not hide the words and phrases. The puffy sticker gives a nice effect.

I created this album to give to a friend. I hope it will give you some great ideas;) I wish you a very happy Valentine's Day. See you soon!
