I waited until today to post the video of the wedding album flip through. I love having a themed album project but I gotta tell ya, I'm really glad I'm done with it.
So, sorry...no desk photo, but please enjoy the video!
Paper Pad: Pretty as a Poppy by Paper Studios (Hobby Lobby)
Cardstock: Bubblegum, Tin Pail, Whip Cream and Black Licorice from Fun Stampers Journey and Ballerina from Close To My Heart (CTMH)
Embellishments: Tulle Blossoms, Bulleye, Spirals by Queen & Co. (I also used some pink pom pom flower things, but didn't keep the packet so don't have the name.)
Cricut Cuts: The fancy cursive words (bride & groom, etc.) are from lovesvg.com. Other fonts used are from the Nifty Fifties cartridge. Flowers were from Cricut Design Space - many of them free. Silhouettes are from Suburbia cartridge.
Other Cartridges Used: Calligraphy Collection and Art Philosophy
Flip Flaps, Photo Overlays and Pocket Page Protectors are all from CTMH
I reference RTS Scrapbooking who is a YouTube channel that I follow and got many of my design ideas from.
Before I officially started the album, I made multiple "base" pages so I didn't have to start from scratch when I started adding photos & embellishments. That was a huge timesaver! I did the same thing when I made my other son's wedding album two years ago.
Another thing I did which I highly recommend is instead of printing all the photos 4x6, I went through and chose to print many in wallet size (2x3) and some even smaller than that. I allows more photos without the need for adding more pages. I also printed some in 5x7!
If you have any questions on what I did or where I purchased something, send me an email or leave a comment.

Sorry Dorlene but the video doesn't seem to be working. It says video unavailable when I clicked on it. I like the idea of lots of different photo sizes though. Happy WOYWW. Sarah #10
ReplyDeleteInteresting...it works for me.
DeleteDorlene are you teasing us? I can't access the video either. I will check back later to see it because I know it is going to beautiful!

The album is stunning - love the consistent colour scheme and the 'tip ins' and different page sizes for variety. You really have made something very special. Take care and have a good week. With love & God Bless, Caro x #12

Now that's strange because the video is working fine for me. Very sensible to plan the page backgrounds as I think this pulls the whole thing together and loving the way you've arranged the photographs too. Beautiful, well done. Wishing you a happy woyww, Angela x15x

Oh Dorlene, that's gorgeous! What a stunning album, such a great keepsake. I love the pink theme throughout, and all the hearts and butterflies surrounding the lovely happy photos. What a joyful day and how beautifully you have captured it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visit. So glad you liked my pantry - thanks for your kind words! It is now even more fully stocked and I've had to overflow elsewhere - it could do with being twice the size really. A couple of years ago we discovered dry rot under the old cupboard that was there, and it all had to be ripped out, so I got a proper little pantry made. It has made life so much easier in the kitchen and I absolutely love it! The jars with their labels remind me of an old-fashioned sweet shop.
Thank you for your good wishes for my appointments tomorrow.
Happy WOYWW,

Don't apologise for not having a photo of your desk when you can share such a work of art as this album - via video! Great, enjoyed watching. A lovely change.

Your son and daughter-in-law's wedding album is lovely. Our youngest daughter is getting married in January, so this just triggered my creative juices. Happy belated WOYWW! #26
ReplyDeleteHi Darlene. The album is amazing! What a labour of love! Thank you for visiting, apologies for my late visit. I got delayed this week. Anne X @17
