Hello everyone, and Happy Easter. It is
Kirsten here, showing a spring minialbum with the
Time for Tea paper collection, photos from Norway and lots of dies. The LDRS dies are very versatile, and I wanted to give you some inspiration on how to use them in a minialbum.
The album
I also wanted to use one of the new dies as an embossing folder at the back of the album. This was done by using by cutting two Lovelette dies cuts, gluing them together, and using this as an embossing folder on white cardstock. This works perfectly as an embossing folder. The heart has been cut out with the heart from the same dies set.
The inside of the album
The album has five pages, decorated on both sides.
The first page is an introduction to the theme of the album, photos from Norway.
Hello, has been cut out from a photo of the mountains in Norway, using the
Hello word die. I thought that using the die on a photo, would create a bit more impact.
These pages are showing Norway during the winter time. We have a long and dark winter in Norway, but it can be very beautiful.
This photo is showing snow flakes on my car window a winter morning. I have used a die from
the Fancy circle die set to cut out the photo. The back snowflakes have been cut with the qute
Snowy day border die. This die is fantastic for creating background patterns on those winter cards or layouts.
These two pages have photos from Oslo, the capital in Norway.
This photo is from the new Opera house in Oslo, a fantastic building in stone and glass, where you can walk on the roof. At the back, I have used a die cut from t
he Regal frame die set.
The next two pages have photos from Larvik.
These stairs are from Fritzøe Brygge in Larvik. Larvik town has lots of poems carved in stone, all over the town. The tow background dies has been created with one of the dies from
the Regal die set. The tags has been created with the tag dies from t
he Fancy Rectangles & Layers die and cutting the diecuts out of a photo. The dragonfly are from t
he Allifair build a card die set, but this dragon flie has also been cut out of a photo.
These two pages are showing a bit of the fantastic mountains we have in Norway.
The last two pages are showing summer photos from Norway.
Wishing you a happy crafty spring.
