Not long after my grandson was born I bought 4”x6” photo album from Paperchase which cost £1.50 (approx $2.17).
I just wanted something I could put a few photos in so I could show everyone what a gorgeous grandson I had – a ‘brag book’ I think the guys and gals over the pond call it.
For the photo album cover I kept it simple by cutting two peices of felt and just hand stitched them with embroidery silk. I then used a Cuttlebug to cut some amimal, flower and butterfly shapes, which again were stitched on.
For the album covers front and back I added cardstock, fun stickers and peel offs as well as my grandson’s name.
Hope you like it.
A day without scrapbooking is a day without sunshine!
