Good Afternoon All!
Couple of things real quick! Thanks for the fun comments from my new embellishment love, Industrial Chic! For some reason, I'm not getting your comments emailed to me. So, I just read them and have been laughing ever since! Zandra got the fever and didn't even finish her comment as she said. grabbing the keys......Cindy L. was obviously out the door on the way to Michaels in PJ's! LOL! I totally know the feeling! Can you believe that I went back today to scan the goodies again! Might have missed something! And Low and Behold, I did! When your shaking and you legs start to go, it's really hard to see everything from the cool tile floor at Michaels! :)
I also wanted to give you an update on the Lighthouse Tutorial. Hopefully up by tomorrow on Etsy! (probably would have been up today if I hadn't of gone to Michaels!) :) Thanks for such wonderful feedback on it!
OK, now on to the Album...
My friend Kimmie from work is going to Italy in the morning! I totally forgot to do a Bon Voyage gift for she and her husband last night! Blast! So, this morning I got up at the crack and crafted one real quick! I mean quick! The coffee was coursing through my body! I was in a rush! What to do, what to do...a fast album.
I thought it would be a good Fast and Easy project for the weekend...There is no written tutorial today gang, just a video with the measurements, so grab a pencil.
The cover to the album is really the only measurement you need and that is 4-3/4 x 6-3/4 - inches. The spine piece is 1 x 6-3/4 - inches. If you don't have one of the awesome Graphic 45 Mini Envelope Albums, try either making one or better yet, using some standard letter size envelopes. You can either bind them with a bind-it-all or use a 1 to 2-inch piece of cardstock. Score it in the middle and use as a hinge.
Here is the tutorial in two parts....
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! I'll post when I have the pattern up.
