Blissful New Yr! This 12 months I made a decision to set some objectives for myself, reasonably than obscure resolutions. A type of objectives is to get again into documenting reminiscences. Over the previous few years I’ve moved away from conventional scrapbooking, as a substitute creating extra playing cards and papercrafts. The brand new 6×8 mini albums are the proper medium to leap again into scrapbooking!
I selected the grey 6×8 mini album for my 2025 guide. I like the grey it coordinates with so many collections, it makes an amazing base shade.
I wished a clear cowl for my album. I began with a 6 1/8″ x 8 5/8″ piece of Mint Sweet Stripe Sprinkles Petite Prints. I layered over that piece a 5 7/8″x 8 3/8″ piece of the Cute & Artful Shiny Concepts lined paper. I sewed the layers collectively utilizing my stitching machine and a few grey thread.
I discovered a giant chunky font (Affect) and lower numbers 2025 utilizing my Silhouette. I sized them to take up a lot of the house on the lined paper. I selected a few of my favourite patterns from a number of collections for my numbers together with Fairly Kitty Expensive to My Coronary heart (pink hearts), Particular Supply Cuddly Cubs (Yellow), Bundle of Pleasure Child Blooms (inexperienced verify) and a few extra Mint Sweet Stripe/Sprinkles Petite Prints. I offset every quantity with some grey Sweet Stripe/Sprinkles Petite Prints to make them stand out a bit. I then added the numbers, overlapping barely onto the background piece. I zig-zag stitched randomly across the numbers and added some coordinating sprinkles for shine and dimension. Listed below are some close-ups…
I then went looking out via my Doodle Pop Assortment to search out the proper embellishment. When I discovered the Simply My Sort Doodle Pop from the Hi there Assortment, I knew I had discovered it! I added it to the middle of my numbers after which added slightly formed sprinkle coronary heart from the Rainbow Hearts formed sprinkles. I like the contact of shine this Doodle Pop provides!
So as to add some curiosity to the left aspect of the duvet, I wrapped some Chunky Twine in Mint across the cowl. I held it in place with some double sided tape. I tied a bow utilizing each mint and grey Chunky twine and glued it to wrapped twine. To finish it I added the Cute Digicam Little Charmer. I like then new clasps on the little charmers, it makes including them really easy!
I added the 2025 to the bookplate utilizing some Mint Alphabet Soup Stickers together with a pair extra rainbow coronary heart sprinkles.
I am excited to start out documenting my 12 months! I will be again subsequent time to indicate how I embellished among the dividers that include the album and a few pocket pages! Thanks for stopping by to peek!
