Masculine Mini Album

This one is for my son. The papers are from Stampin' Up! and Hobby Lobby. This is another horizontal paper bag album. A tutorial is posted on a previous post.

The leather strap is grunge paper (Tim Holtz) that I died with Distress ink. The buckle is from Tim Holtz as well and attached to the grunge paper strap with a brad. 

The coin is from a trip to Mexico, the round silver object with an inital, is a cuff link that belonged to his great grandfather and the silver Harness Horse was on a tie tack that belonged to his grandfather. He was given the tie tack one year that he was leading driver at Maywood Park track.

Horizontal Paper Bag Album Tutorial

Here is another paper bag album. This one was made with paper from Graphic 45, "Typography." I decided to make this book to house my collection of quotes. I've been collecting quotes and inspirational bits since college. I have them in a few different journals. I've been typing them to put in this book. All in one place. Here is the TUTORIAL .  REVISED 7/12/2014

These tags pull out from the bag opening. The file folder tab was done with the envelope punch board from Stampin' Up!

The bottom of the bag serves as a pocket.

Each bag has two gussets. Cardstock flaps have been inserted into them creating more spaces for pictures or in this case, quotes.

Horizontal Paper Bag Album

This beach themed album is for my BFF, Barb. The tutorial can be found here. The paper is from Hobby Lobby.
