Hi Roadies! It's Jocelyn on the blog today with a non-traditional mini album.
A few months ago, Caroline sent me a Wood ATC Box. There were so many possibilities for this box! I thought about using it for storing life cards, organizing embellishments, or using the bottom as a drawer for a countdown calendar. Instead, I settled on using the bottom of the box as a drawer mini album.
I started by painting the box and adding a strip of October Afternoon Summertime patterned paper. The album consisted of pictures from last summer, so I kept the colors light and cheerful. I added a Felt Rose, a painted wooden cloud, and a loop of Pink Lemonade twine to finish the box.
The album included a mix of tags, envelopes, a glassine bag, homemade cards, and a few loose pictures--basically, anything that would fit into the box.
Here are most of the tags and cards:
....And here are a few close-ups:
I gilded the Smile Camera Charm--isn't it cute? I also added the Mini Pom Pom trim and Leaf Gingham Fabric Tape on this tag.
I'm addicted to these Sparkle Sequin bows! I want to put them on everything. I also layered the photo over the Doily Transparency--they're perfect for layering under photos.
I inked the Mini Scalloped chipboard and layered the airplane Travel Token to pair with my Maine harbor photo.
I journaled on the bag of this popsicle tag. The Wooden Tag is painted, and I layered the Tu-Tu Tulle flower over it.
For this tag, I painted the Antique Ornate Frame and layered the Felt Flower over it.
On this summer tag, I was inspired by the strawberries patterned paper. I painted the Mini Chipboard Button and gilded the cute Camera Clip.
Lastly, I had to have a tag with the Oh Deer resin deer. I also used the Vintage Pearl Flower and Doily Transparency.
Here is a picture of the whole box:
Fun, isn't it? I could see this project being modified for a gratitude journal or holiday countdown, too.
Thanks for stopping by!
