Hello! Today I am really happy to show you the mini album I made with the latest Prima products available at Paperlane. I used papers from the new Divine collection (and divine it is!), a Mixed Media Doll stamp, tags from the Tags Pad and wooden buttons - all such a treat and delight to my crafter's soul!
The moment I saw that pretty doll stamp, I knew it would be perfect for paper piecing and I was right. It was such fun to make the doll and decorate the tag. Once the tag was ready, I had to come up with something to hold it, so basically the album was created because of the tag :).
The mini album has four pages that hold 4x6 inch photos and two pockets for tags and more photos. I used the first pocket for a photo tag and a journalling tag and the pocket on the back cover for a bunch of other photos from the same session.
The papers are so beautiful and delicate and the colours matched my photos so nicely that I did not find it necessary to decorate the pages a lot. I kept it clean and simple:
a banner and a sticker;
and a button and ribbon here and there.
The mini album makes a perfect keepsake and a sweet gift and will be soon available at Paperlane as a class.
I also have a layout for you. I used the Canzone paper from the Divine collection - a really beautiful design, which is very easy to work with.
I only added a banner, die cuts, a brad and some tulle for a more delicate touch. And voila!
The photos in the mini album and layout were taken by Ania from the ania james photography.
I hope my projects have inspired you!
Happy crafting,
Lidiya
