A Little Bird Told Me

Clare from My Creative Spirit held another Facebook Live Class last weekend, it was number 23 and we made a window box and album.  This is my completed box and the front of the album.


I used the fabulous Graphic 45 Bird Watcher collection to decorate the album and the box, above you can see the box with the album inside, I fussy cut some flowers and a bird to decorate the outside of the box.

Below you can see the box opened out, I have decorated the inside of the box with papers from the patterns and solids collection.


Below is the box without the album in it, I covered the base with black cardstock and decorated the outside with papers from the 8 x 8 " paper pad.


This is the inside of the box, it has a folded lid with a clasp on the side.


This is the little clasp on the side when the box is closed, it was quite fiddley to get everything lined up but well worth the effort.


I haven't quite finished the album yet, I will share it when it is completed.

Thank you for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

Our family loves to bird watch. It's so much fun to compete with our family members to see who spots the first "whatever" who comes to the feeder during certain times of the year. So, I really love your project. It's beautiful. [Bunny]

I don't have Facebook or any social media except for my blog so I don't know if I can watch these videos or not. I sure would like to. [Bunny]

Beautiful album box, Lovely images and design

Pia S said...

It’s a beautiful box, and what a great idea to coordinate the lid with the design of the front cover, they match perfectly. The box is equally beautiful empty.
