Bird Watcher

Sorry I haven't been around for a while, my eldest son came to visit for a few days so I was spending time with him.

This is the completed album that I created after taking part in the most recent Facebook Live class held by Clare from My Creative Spirit, it was number 23 and we made a window box and album.

Below you can see the album inside the window box, I used a combination of papers from the Graphic 45 Bird Watcher collection - you can see more details and photographs of the window box HERE.

Next you can see the inside of the front cover and the front of the first page, the front cover has an acetate flap, there is another flap on the first page, both flaps are secured with a magnet.

The next photograph shows the flap on the inside cover open to reveal a pocket, I  have placed a journal card in the pocket but you could also put a photograph in it.

Now you can see the flap on the first page open, there is a small tuck point that I have placed another journal card in.

Next is the back of the first page with a place to display a journal card or photograph and the front of the second page with a flap that has a pocket on it, again I have placed journal cards in the pocket but you could place photographs here as well.

Below you can see the open flap with a journal card in the small tuck pocket.

On the back of the second page I used my Stitched Slots Pocket Die to create the pockets that have journal cards in them, on the front of the third page there is a place to display a journal card or photograph.

The third page with the flap open.

The back of the third page with a photo mat and the front of the final page, this one has a small pocket in which I have placed a small journal card and a small tag.

The flap opened to show a journal card in the small tuck pocket.

The back of the last page with a side pocket that I have placed a tag in and the inside of the back cover which is a repeat of the inside front cover with an acetate flap.

The flap opened to show a pocket with a journal card in it.

Finally, these are the two tags that I have placed in the pockets.

Mother Goose

This is the Album that I created using the Graphic 45 Mother Goose collection.  It's quite a large album, it is nearly 8 x 8".  I was inspired by the Graphic 45 Waterfall Folio that is not available in the UK yet, it comes as a complete album, ready to decorate and a video by Annette Green - you can find her YouTube Channel HERE.

Above you can see the front cover, I used part of the cover sheet along with two of the papers, I have the 12 x 12 Collection, the 8 x 8 Paper Pad and a 6 x 6 Patterns and Solids Pad, I already had the two smaller pads in my stash and then Graphic 45 re-released the 12 x 12 Collectors Edition, which of course I just had to have.

Above is the inside of the front cover and the back of the back panel, it is a trifold Album with a pocket page and two waterfall pages.  There is a pocket on the inside of the front cover with a tag stored in it - you can see the tag HERE.  I used my Stitched Slots Pocket Die, it is made by Matty's Crafting Joy and I purchased it from Amazon, there are ephemera/journal cards and a tag in the pockets.

Below you can see the front of the pocket page.

  

Next is the other side of the pocket page with the photo mat and the first of the waterfall pages, there are six sections in each waterfall and they are secured with a magnet.

Below you can see both of the waterfall pages side by side.

Finally, this is the back cover.  I am really pleased with this Album, if I make another one I think I will make it a little smaller.
