Scrapbook: Red and Black

This is a red and black, 6" x 6" mini album, with a heavy cardstock base. As you can tell I opted not to ring bind it, but used heavy embossed and inked cardstock for the spine.

The layouts used have been inspired by the G45 and Blue Fern Studio mini done by Michelle. The sequence and page titles were specified by the client. Since this mini uses a cardstock base, I was able to add a few hidden pages and explore other fun techniques which I found difficult when working with chipboard.

The first page is divided into two, so basically the first page has about four sections. When you rotate the chipboard "arrow", the section opens up to reveal hidden sections.

Similarly page two, has a hidden pocket along with ample space to journal or place a photo.

Above the pocket opens to reveal journal-ling space, and below the same pocket flips open to reveal some more space.

So basically this mini is filled with fun, hidden sections.
This is one of my favorite pages; very colorful and very desi. I drew out the mehndi design on green cardstock, cut it, outlined it with glitter and then stuck it down as pockets.

The Barat page is all fussy cut, and outlined with glitter. The photo mat is removable.

Happily married is a fold-able mat, with both sides layered with patterned cardstock.

The pages, in sequence, below:

Happy crafting!

And the Birds were Angry!

I finally had the opportunity of working with the famous Angry Birds, and boy were they angry! hehe.

Mini books for little guys, in blue and yellow. Each mini has around 6 pockets and a total of 14 tags.

Using the paper piecing technique, each custom tag is themed according to the characters of the game.

The pages are plain, as requested by the client, with some Angry Bird themed dimensional on each

These mini books come in customized Angry Bird themed bags. :)

 

 

That's all Folks!

Mini: Chalkboard

Here is a mini expressing my love for chalkboard! =D
The mini is 4x4 with lots of flowers, mats, pockets and chalkboard accents.
I used purple, yellow and blue for flowers, and white for the leaves.

These two pages are my favorite! The inspiration came from clipart borders. Here though its all stamping.

 Happy crafting! =)

Mini Book: Poem

One of my clients, a poetess, approached me for some colorful card ideas for her friend. After reading the poem, we decided on presenting it in a Mini Book, instead of a card. (I consider myself fortunate to have extremely talented clientele.)

I was provided with a beautiful picture and the poem which was to be used for this project. The picture captured the warmth of their friendship and I decided to use it as the cover. As this was supposed to be a colorful mini, black was used as the base to make the colors prominent. I took the liberty of heat embossing "Friends", in gold, on the spine.

Each page has a stanza printed on one side and ample space for journaling, or adding more photos on the other side. Other than that there are 8 colorful photo mats and tags included within.

The mini was packaged in a box.

Happy Crafting!
