The designs on Fabscraps C87 002 and
C87 008 (striped side up) lends itself to creating the spines and narrow
sections of your photobox. Use the
central and widest parts to measure and cut your strips. Sand off any overhanging edges
·
I used Fabscraps C87 001 (plain side up)
for the cover and just inked the edges with sepia
·
The bold vibrancy of C87 002 (teal side up)
and C87 007 (purple side up) was used on my two inner pages. I cut these to measure, chalked the teal with
Sepia and then distressed all edges before adhering with Tombow. I created
‘photo corners’ with two circles cut from C87 007. (Cut each circle into quarters and adhere
them to the corners of your photograph)
·
I adhered a long strip of ivory satin ribbon
along the centre of my box and left enough to overhang so that I could tie a
large bow
·
The title chippie was inked with teal and with
plum and then given a coat of Glossy accents, before I adhered it on the left,
on top of the ribbon
·
I used Fabscraps metal flowers and some paper
roses to embellish above and below my title chippie and swiped both clusters
with a little heavy white gesso
·
I finished it off with a few random spots of
micro beads
Concertina
Photo “Album”
·
The measurement of each ‘page’ is approximately
4 ¾ x 8 inches. I cut pieces of
Fabscraps papers from my list above to measure within half an inch per
page. My edges were inked with sepia and
then distressed
·
On the pages where I used the Fabscraps stencils,
I also inked with sepia using a blending tool
·
All chippies used on the concertina album were
treated the same way : chalked and then coated with glossy accents
·
I cut two different sized circles with a punch
from some smaller parts of paper and using my embossing tool, I created little
makeshift ‘flowers’. The centres were
filled with teal microbeads
·
I used many discarded Fabscraps chippie frames
to highlight my photographs (which were all printed in black and white to
showcase the lovely colours of the Fabscraps range)
·
I opted to create a few pages on this concertina
by layering up various strips of paper; all of which were distressed before my
layering was created and adhered.
Included in some of my layering was some pennants
·
I fussy cut some of the elements from
C87 003 and after chalking the edges with brown, adhered them with foam
dots to create additional embellishments for my page
·
I selected the ‘Journey In Time’ sticker from
ST87 002 and adhered it to some cream cardstock; then I fussy cut that out
and adhered it to my page using foam dots
·
The Fabscraps
wooden buttons (BE1 003) were adhered on top of some flat paper
flowers and brushed with some heavy white gesso
·
On all pages, layering and elements, I doodled a
black border to create a little definition
