Julie Nutting Mini-Album for Halloween


Julie Nutting has some fun new stamps and papers out that will help make your Halloween fun and bright.  First, the dolls are created by Julie Nutting and Prima.  The Bootiful paper collection is Julie Nutting and PhotoPlay.  

I decided to create a mini album partly because I could not decide which papers I wanted to use and which doll stamps.  They were all so sweet and fun.  I thought I'd give them all a whirl.  

Here is an overview of my complete book - chock full of hidden journal spots, surprises on every page and tons of room for mounting adorable Halloween photos and tucking extra photos away for quick "bragging" rights.   Quite the fun, bold book for those darling photos. 

( This book is available on my ETSY shop while it lasts along with some other  Julie Nutting Halloween goodies. You can see this mini-album here while it is available.  )

I created this using a simple 6x6 brown paper bag album I bought on ETSY.  It's not fancy but it comes with many places to store additional photos and journaling.  I also wanted to create a book that has a lot of cool places for featured photos and journaling.  

The cover was made using Julie Nutting and PhotoPlay's Bootiful papers and Ephemera.  I used the paper callled Harelguin BT2308with the Bootiful 3x4 cards BT2306.  This is accented with a bit of lime green and purple cardstock for matting.  
Pages 1 and 2

Here is a close up of the Skelly page.  I also added some stickers from the 12x12 Bootiful collection.  They are adorable.  
Next up  is a double page that folds open for photos.  When closed, it features Julie's sweet and spooky Skelly doll stamp.  She is just darling.  One the opposite page, I made a simple frame to showcase the sweet stickers that came in the 12x12 Bootiful paperpack.  The frame is a diecut from JustRite Paper Products - the Decorative Hello Oval Frame die.

As you open the Skelly page, you find more adorably spooky  paper from the  PhotoPlay Bootiful.  This page is called Bootiful - Hats BT2311.  This is a perfect place to mount a photo from Halloween.


Now as you open up the next page, you find a darling surprise...Cat Girl and her cat of course.  


Pages 3 and 4
These are pages 3 and 4 -bright and cheery. 

I used a few different dies on this page.  First, my base die is Prima Embroidery Die 584009 with Echo Park's Haunted Mansion die layered over the top.  
This is page 4 and it features a 3x4 journal card from PhotoPlay's Bootiful collection "Cards" sheet   bt2306.   I 

made a tag and tucked into the pouch I created.  The tag is

 perfect for some hidden journaling or a small photo.  

Pages 5 and 6
The base of these pages is created from PhotoPlay paper called "Pumpkins" .   These both are pouches that have a large Graphic 45 Tag for photos and journal writing.  
This page features one of the PhotoPlay Ephemera Dolls atop an oval die from JustRite Papercrafts.  The beautiful scalloped edges on this page are Spellbinders Borderabilities Card Creator Dies - A2 Scalloped Borders die.    you can also see the Graphic45 black tag better in this photo.  

The only change up on this page is the wonderful pumpkin die from Die-Versions called "Whispers Patterned Pumpkin" DVW-277
Pages 7 and 8
Nothing fancy on these pages.  I wanted them to be simple and similar.  Great places for photos.  

Pages 9 and 10
These pages are trifold pages that are held together using  the orange ribbon. I used the ephemera and the stickers from the collection.   I did make my own candy corn background.  

When you  untie the trifold pages and open them up, they look like this.   Another great place for tucking photos.  






Oh one last thing….this mini is available in my ETSY shop - while it lasts.  You can view my ETSY shop here.  
Thanks for stopping by.

Maja design and JustRite Mini-Album Wedding Card



Maja Design and JustRite Stamps and Dies

This is a mini-album wedding card that I created with the absolutely fabulous Maja Design Vintage Romance collection in conjunction with the newest dies and stamps from JustRite Papercrafts.   

Birth of a Mini Album
Mini-albums are really not something I enjoy - and truthfully this project didn't start out as a mini.  It had its humble beginnings as a card. 

 I pulled out my Maja Design and JustRite supplies and made a few diecuts using JustRite A2 Graceful Lines Die , which created the base shape of the card. However the Maja Design Vintage Romance collection has too many gorgeous papers that I needed to try die cutting a few of the sheets to decide which ones I liked best for my card.   It got crazy at my house - more indecision - more die cuts - more beauty - more confusion.   Finally I looked at the beautiful elegant pile on my desk and realized I didn't need to decide.  A mini-album was born. 

This is the front of my card.  As you can see, I punched a hole in all the pages and ran a binder ring through them.  Easy.  ( Just make your life easy and punch all the holes at one time in a stack so they all match up and are perfect).    
I used the following 2 dies from JustRite to create the front: 

Page 2 - the inside page is a graphic from the sheet of Ephemera Cards from the collection.  
Isn't this sheet of Ephemera Cards just divine?  

  Page three and four were sort of made at the same time.   I used the JustRite Hello Decorative Oval Frame Die  for the oval shape.  I cut the oval from one sheet of Vintage Romance, then added lace to the back of the negative space.    The actual die cut oval was then used on page four as the focal point.  

This is the die I used.  


The word "Love " is also a die from JustRite - JustRite Love Sentiment Die.  


The next page utilizes the dies as the center embellishment.  
JustRite Vintage Labels  Eleven Dies -DIE05066

This page has a few JustRite stamps added to it for accent and a sentiment.  


Thanks so much for stopping.
