Typography Mini Book


Hello all!! It's starting to get a bit chilly in East Texas. Had to turn on the heater the other night. 

I thought I would share the present I made for my best friend's birthday back at the end of October. I use Graphic 45's Typography and the large album tags to make a mini book! It turned out beautifully and she loved it. Sorry for the poor photos, I was in a rush to finish it so I could leave to go meet her in Arlington (about two and a half hours from where I currently live). We had a shopping day to celebrate her birthday. Enjoy!- AR

Recycle Packaging from Graphic 45 Staples!

I just love the way this turned out! I had the Artisan Style paper sitting in my collection for awhile and decided this would be the perfect thing to use it on!

I LOVE to fussy cut butterflies and pop them up on my projects to make them 3D. So when I got this paper I instantly wanted to do a configurations box from Tim Holtz. I had never used one before, and this just seemed like the perfect paper to use with it. It also helped that I hit Joann Craft store right at Black Friday time and got a ton of Idea-Ology things to put in the box to help fill it out. I really love the way this turned out! I think what took the longest was trying to figure out how I wanted all the boxes arranged. I think measured them all and cover the insides of the box. I then followed Tim's directions for tissue taping all the seams. I used different things cut out from the collection and some of Tim's Idea-ology line to fill up all ...
