Hi everyone :)~ Today I'm going to share with you an accordion-style mini book that I put together using the March Sprinkles Craftbox from Webster's Pages- on sale NOW- and will be over the next 48 hours. Every month, Webster's Pages releases one of these boxes filled with beautiful, coordinating WP products for only $10! And today I'm going to introduce you to the contents of this month's box, as well as my project and instructions!
"{March} Sprinkles Craftbox Album"
These boxes go FAST- so order yours today~!
But before you head out, here are some closeups and instructions for how to use the March Sprinkles Craftbox for your own accordion-style album :):
Directions (this project and directions can also be downloaded through the Websters' Pages site HERE):
1.
Take one of the 3 papers provided in the Sprinkles Craftbox. Since the
length of this paper is 18.75", you will need to take a ruler and
measure every 3.75", make a mark, and use those marks as a guide for
where to make each fold to create the accordion-style pages of this
album. (I used the "B" side of the paper- the side with the green
circles- as the outside of my album). Cover each inside page with a
piece of
cardstock (I used white).
2.
(Page 1): Each of your other two papers will be used for decorating the
inside of your album. I used the "A" side on one and the "B" side on
the other. For Page 1, cut a 1.5" x 6" strip from the "A" side paper
(the paper containing the cards images). Adhere to the right-hand side
of your page. You can use a stamp and ink of your choice to accent the
border if you'd like. Next, cut a circle shape from your "B" side paper.
Layer it, along with a paper doily from your stash and one of the
netted doilies included in the Craftbox. Add your photo, the "Together"
card from the "A" side paper, two stick pins,
and a vintage button. For a final touch, fussy cut a few of the borders
cut from the circle images provided on the "B" paper.
3.
(Page 2): Cut a border using the circle images from the "B" paper.
Layer it over a paper doily along the right-hand side of your page. Next
cut a .75" banner from the "A" paper. Fussy cut a partial circle from
the "B" paper and layer alongside your banner, along with some stamping.
Cut one of the "Loved" cards from the "A" paper and stick it behind
your banner, allowing half of it to stick out the left side. Add photo, a
diamond shape from the "B" paper, and a couple more trimmings from the
circles on the
"B" paper. Finally, split the cameo pieces at the top of the brown
stick pin and adhere half of it to the diamond piece.
4.
(Page 3): Cut a 2.5" x 3.75" piece from the "A" paper. Adhere it 2/3 of
the way down your page. Add some stamping underneath. Cut a half-circle
from the "B" paper and layer it along the top of your page, add a paper
doily and a fussy cut image from the "A" paper. Cut one of the
peach-colored netted doilies in half and stick it along the left side of
your page. Cut a 1.75" x 4.75" piece from the "B" paper and create a
banner piece. Layer over the top of your netted doily, add your photo,
and stick one of the
"Happy" cards cut from the "A" paper under the bottom of your photo.
5.
(Page 4): Cut a 1.5" x 6" piece from the "A" paper and adhere along the
left-hand side of your page. Add a 1.5" x 6" banner over top of it.
Stamp along the edge of your papers before adding a paper doily and a
circle piece near the top of your page. Add photo before sliding a
"Beauty" card cut from the "A" paper under the right-hand side of your
photo. Cut some of the edgings off of a circle from the "B" paper and
use to adorn the top of your page as well as under the bottom of your
photo. Finally, add a vintage button and a bundle of fussy-cut flowers
cut from
the "A" paper.
6.
(Page 5): Cut a 1.75" x 5" piece from the "A" paper; adhere to the
right-hand side of page. Stamp along bottom of page. Layer a paper
doily, circle image from the "B" paper, and the remainder of the peach
netted doily and place to the lower-right side of the page. Add photo
and cut more edges from a circle on the "B" paper to decorate the top of
page and to the bottom left side of the paper doily. Cut another
diamond shape from the "B" paper and add the other half of the brown
cameo from the stick pin taken apart earlier. Cut the word "Life" from
the appropriate card on the "A" paper and place along the bottom
right-hand corner of your photo.
Thanks so much for coming over today~! Now go and get yourself one of these boxes before they are gone!! ;)
