MINI CHRISTMAS ALBUM

This is the MINI CHRISTMAS ALBUM I made @ a local scrapbooking store during their recent Christmas Open House with Make & Takes.

It was bound using the UNI BIND system.
 
Now that I have the book made, all I have to do is add pics, journaling spots, embellishments & do some technique work on the pages before I mount everything.

We were a little rushed for time so it turned out pretty good considering. 
We were given a wad of patterned paper & told to choose a sheet for the front & back cover, inside front & inside back. 
Then the remaining papers would be our pages. 
I took the time to arrange the inside pages to a satisfactory extent. 
Now that I see the overall view in these pics I would have liked page 2 to be on the facing side so the margin on the patterned paper would be lined up on the right side of the page like a school notebook instead on near the spine of the book. 
I might have placed the red pages more strategically too if I had more time. 
 They look a little out of balance in places. 
Oh well!

Pretty good size mini album.  Lots of space & pages to add pics, journaling spots & embellishments.

THIS IS A GIFT TO ME! 





I WILL POST PICS OF THE FINISHING PROCESS ALONG THE WAY AS I
 DISTRESS, USE VARIOUS TECHNIQUES & ADD EMBELLISHMENTS
SO STAY TUNED!

THIS WAS JUST ONE OF 4 MAKE & TAKES THAT DAY.
I STILL HAVE 3 MORE TO SHOW YOU.
CHECK BACK FOR THE OTHER PROJECTS I MADE.

Hi This looks exactly like what I would like to make for some family members but leaving the pages blank so they could add their own photos.
