"My Wish" Album

I have posted these pictures for you to use to complete your class kits. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you run into any problems when making your album.

Hint: I would lay the entire kit out into piles for each page. This way you know you are using the correct piece of red cardstock. Some of the embossed pieces are the same pattern, but different sizes, depending on the length of the verse for that page. Be careful as some of the embossed papers will want to stick together because they were embossed two at a time.

Pages are made from both side of the black chipboard. So when you complete a right hand page you will be turning it to create the next page.


The front and back covers are canvas boards. Cover with paper, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges that folds to the backside of the canvas board. The front cover has a flower rubon and is popped up with foam tape. Stitching has been done with a cream paint pen.


Inside Cover and Page 1 - Adhere the red pazzill papers to the inside front and back covers. Using a black chipboard page, adhere the four printed papers randomly on the page. Use photo for placement of cardstock with the words "My Wish" adhered to it. Add red photo corners. Embellish edges with paint pen.


Pages 2 & 3 - The embossed papers have matching patterns. Some of the words have been embellished. The picture doesn't show it, but the word "moments" has been spelled using clear stickers on red cardstock. The 3 snaps on the right side were put on using a crop-a-dile and then popped up with foam tape. Embellish edges with paint pen.


Pages 4 & 5 - Embossed pattern is a script pattern. Make sure you notice the placement of the papers so you can vary the paint pen embellishment around the edges.


Pages 6 & 7 - The cardstock flower has a large brad through the center. I glued the flower on rather than making a hole through the chipboard.


Pages 8 & 9 - The ribbon is wrapped all the way around the red cardstock before adhering. Small silver brads are in the centers of the cardstock flowers.


Pages 10 & 11 - The stickers are used to spell the words "big" and "small". Red ribbon is tied to each of the spiral clips.


Pages 12 & 13 - Three red flowers with small cardstock flowers and silver brads in the center of each. Notice there is a small verse (Yeah, this, is My Wish) adhered to the right page in the lower right corner.


Pages 14 & 15 - Bronze metal flower with brad center is adhered to red cardstock before cardstock is adhered to page.


Pages 16 & 17 - Large cordaroy brad through cardstock flower.


Pages 18 & 19 - Ribbon is cut flush with top and bottom of patterned paper rather than going around the back.


Pages 20 & 21


Pages 22 & 23


Page 24 & inside back cover
